Interim Report – Sorry to keep you all waiting!

[Cyprias]

While some of the Abj gear is amazing like Iaso Head/Feet, I have to say the price for -1s are very, very, deterring.

This is a result of less materials being available, and some of those materials are from Legion alone. While the prices are incredibly spiked, the value of gil has decreased as an inflation has occurred from NPCing items being an increased phenomena. Also, getting the craft skill level to do these synths is a huge investment. However, at least it is much easier nowadays to make 1M than it was when Abyssea first released.

Edit: Implied that making 1M is easier to make, thus the cost of the items isn't as hard as it seems.
