    Voidwatch is making it so that Cruor is getting eaten up, and if you don't have cruor you can pour gil into it too.

    Not to mention the craftables from VW are anywhere from 2~30mil on asura. Let alone the prices of actual useful RA gear from VW.

    I can see why RMT might have a market

    While some aspects of the cruor system might be susceptible to RMT, do you seriously think RMT will start doing VW in large groups, and coordinate enough to proc and kill what are currently the toughest mobs in the game when even shout groups have issues doing such? As I said in another thread, if they can even last more than 2 minutes in a VW fight, heck, they deserve to RMT the spoils :P

    I almost always make a net profit in Cruor from Voidwatch considering I don't use cells on fights that don't drop anything I want =/.

    A full proc'd T4 Part 1 NM drops 15,500 Cruor, while costing 18,000 cruor for 6 cells. At most you're losing 2,500 cruor/fight if you use 3Red/3Blue on every single fight.

    If you skip up to T3 part 2 NMs, you're making 16,600 Cruor/fight while spending the same 18,000, a loss of 1,400 Cruor/fight assuming you use 6 cells every single time.

    It takes 143 Pils in a row with maxed Cells to equate to the Cruor consumption of a single Primeval brew =/.

    Cruor for Atmacites is a one-time purchase as well, which comes to a negligible cost over time. 500,000 Cruor? That's maybe an hour of two of cruor farming if I didn't already have a billion extra Cruor from farming Empyrean weapons and crap anyways.

    900,000 cruor for lv10 coercion.

    that's 2,340,000 gil

    Not everyone has tons of cruor. I personally don't enter Abyssea anymore, and had used all my cruor up previously on helping people get things.

    On the other hand you really don't need atmacite anyway. Nobody in my Ls has bothered upgrading any of it because we've had no problems killing the mobs and it's a waste of cruor.

    More like I have better uses for cruor than blowing 500k per atmacite for minimal benefit.

    Try Atmacite of Discipline with a half-decent Corsair and try calling it minimal again.

    Though yes, the vast majority of atmacite (like atma as well) are crap.
