Make it easier to make gils

[Rustic]

I agree the game should tell you a bit more about things rather than having to figure out everything using fan made websites. And I also agree that the Auction House screws people over mid levels.

Nowadays, that's due to a lack of demand. The exp system means people blaze through post-30 levels so fast that demand for gear is almost zero, and I lay that blame squarely on Abyssea and the whole 30-99 leechfest. It's another example of how trivializing part of the game had nasty side effects.

Conquest point gear is about as popular a choice in that range as I can suggest nowadays, since old-school stuff like Baron's gear is almost impossible to find due to crafters simply not having regular demand for making it.

With things the way they are presently, that is about the only thing I can currently offer new people. I agree that it would be worthwhile to make some basic gear for affordable prices for much of the mid levels.

As noted, though- there is no mid-level game anymore. It's 1-30, then it's one cycle of level-limit breaking to 99, then every other job is 1-30 -> 99 from Abyssea.

Behold the big swathe of the game broken by overdoing it on exp gain.
