Inflated Shihei Prices hmmmmm......

[rog]

Lol? Its ~18k a BAG, not stack in Bastok.

Same thing...?

[Mirage]

One toolbag is one stack of tools. Thus, 19k for one stack of tools.

Click cross-server prices. Seems to average to about 100k, so I don't even know what you're talking about anymore.

In many cases there's inflation across the board in the supply chain for shihei, many cases starting with the fish for the ink, because fishing sucks and very few people do it.

If im going to shadow tank as a /nin i'll burn about 1200 tools a rl Week,
i'm not going to random "Exp Partys" in Abys cause thery are a pain, speaking about loss of Skill
thats definately the Place i'll look first.... y is that? cuz ppl need to use Cruors to get gil rather then useng Atma?

Prolly not, but the main point is the demand is to LOW thats y the Prices get over the top, ppl dont buy them hp can be cured and stuff? Naw i really dont see any reason y the Prices are so mutch over the top.

Demand aint the point here. If i subbed like Dnc to Thf that would be cheaper.... but i would be pretty useless (and dead in a sec) so no ty.

Want i see is a bunch of Jobs that should be /nin but not willing to pay... the only ones that pay it are actually the ppl that want to be useful to their Groups. Just fix the Price so anyone can use it by adding an Npc Seller.

It is not about cost. /nin just is not very useful. Whms have infinite mp, so there is little need for dds to worry about staying alive.

Also, you may want to recheck your logic there. Low demand means LOWER prices, not higher.

Lol? Its ~18k a BAG, not stack in Bastok. If anything that'd be ripping yourself off more... yet helping the economy due to being a coin sink. Regardless, shihei prices are dumb, I've always wanted nin tools to be a quested KI you could just farm, and use the spell infinitely. Consumable magic is a horrible idea in practice.

1 bag = 1 stack, [Removed by Moderator according to the FINAL FANTASY XI FORUM Guidelines.]

THAT MADE MY DAY LIKE TOTALLY! If you say that then you prolly nerver seen a good /nin

How about adding Ninjatool expertise to /nin say make it lvl 45?
well i'd rather get my tool selling npc thu....

So after a week of shadow tanking, you don't manage to pick up enough items or cruor to make 100k? You only need 50k cruor to make 100k gil.

Yes, demand is the point here. Along with the general amount of gil in circulation. Money is really easy to get a hold of now, so people don't care if they have to pay a bit more. And it's not even a lot more, as you can see, the price you're complaining about is pretty average across all servers.

Btw, Shihei is a lv29 woodworking craft, go level it yourself, it shouldn't take too long. If what you're saying is true, you should be able to save back your investment in just a month!

Of course not. /nin does absolutely nothing to increase damage, and actually LOWERS it, by requiring you to waste time casting pointless spells.

I agree with this, which is why I mentioned the catch all ninja tools, it didn't even cross my mind people use utsusemi that are not ninja main.
