    There are lots of other ways to make gil rather than exploit the currency of the best DMG dealing relics.But that's just my 2 gil.

    If you don't like the idea, then don't "like" the topic/thread and leave it at that. I hate seeing topics getting closed because a few people don't want to see the game changed in any way except the ideas they have and run it to the ground.

    That would be like asking to trade in your Iga Tekko +2 for Bale Gauntlets +2.
    Not at all.

    Iga Tekko +2 and Bale Gauntlets +2 are both completed items.

    Hikazu Hara-Ate and Deimos's Cuirass are upgrade items.

    In the instance I quoted it would only provide a way to exchange currency, not a set path that you have already undertaken.
    If they're all going to be equivalent, then what's the purpose of there even being diff paths? They're different for a reason, an npc exchanger would just make them all the same.

    When have the NPC in Nashmu that acts like a ISP currency exchange, why not extent that service to other NPC offering other currency exchange.
    That's all imperial currency, it's like taking a dollar and getting four quarters. He's not exchanging different currencies, just different amounts of the same currency.

    Asking for a NPC to exchange X,Y,Z currency is no different then the people asking for an NPC to exchange Job: slot seals.
    Which is also a rather dumb idea. Saying you're no different than the people making dumb suggestions doesn't really help your case here.

    I think the only people that would have a reason to be opposed to streamlining currency are the people that only do dynamis to sell currency. "Oh no, now all currency has equal value!!"
    While we're at it, let's just make all items the same. Let's exchange one bronze piece for relics and beat cesti for Amano!

    I never said it was bad. Again you're missing my point. I said your idea is essentially the same as the OPs because it would have the same effect, when you were acting like it was such a different idea, when it was the same one with new wrapping.

    Forgive me for my lack of knowledge in Salvage, the last time I did that was when it first came out and was only seen as naked pajama parties. Allow me to try again...... Your salvage reference doesn't make much since to me because in your example you are changing a path of gear that you had already started on. That would be like asking to trade in your Jewel of Vision for a Coin of Vision. (could be a swing and a miss there too, but the point I was trying to make is exchanging currency wouldn't directly effect the path of gear you have already started.)

    The purpose of having different paths at the time of inception I believe is so not everyone was trying to do runs in the same area. I don't know, I don't work for SE. And no, an NPC exchanger wouldn't make them all the same. The back story of all three nations divided would still fit the game. The only thing it would change is just making the gil value of them the same. (Which is still not a bad idea for anyone other than people trying to make gil from selling relic currency)

    I am aware that the Nashmu exchange NPC only does ISP. It was only mentioned as comparison for a new NPC to take relic currency and exchange it. Kinda like banks do. "You give me one Shell, I'll give you one Bronze piece."

    Again, I implore you. If you don't like an idea or suggestion leave it alone; do not hit the "Like" button or troll the thread until you can get it derailed and closed. And calling people and their ideas dumb just because you disagree doesn't really help your case at all. "Oh I disagree so he's dumb" That's the best comeback ever!!

    And yes, the end result of (not my idea just the guy I quoted) and the OP would be the same because you could use any currency that dropped to further your progress on a relic if you put in the said foot work to have it exchanged. While I am not against the idea of streamlining the currency I would rather see an NPC exchange than just one type of currency. Heck maybe they could make it where you would have to do a quest for the [S]-Nation of the currency that you want in order to exchange. Get a Shell from a campaign coffer in Windy, head to Sandy do a quest get it converted.

    If you don't like the Title of a topic thread, don't click it. If you really don't like the post in said thread, then don't click the like button. These are all just ideas, and will most likely never see the light of day. But if people keep bashing ideas and derailing them it's just a fast track to a closed topic.

    soda is right about this comment, you can extange currency like you do in Nashmu 100 bronze > 1 silver, 100 silver > 1 gold.

    there be no practical difference in having 3 different types and letting the NPC exchange them, (vs what OP said) the only way to have a reason to do that is to have all 3 and have a npc exchange is to add a "fee"

    want to make your bynes into bronze? ok that would be 10 byne and you get 6 bronze.

    That's the same thing.

    Let's say you turned in 100 bronze pieces.

    You obtain 100 bynes.

    You trade them for 100 bronze to NPC

    You don't change the path because you are still trading bronze.


    Get hikazu hara-ate

    Trade to NPC for demios cuirass

    Turn in Demios Cuirass.

    Its the same thing (works for af3+2 upgrades as well).

    You could say the same about any of the other examples I've made and exchanging their upgrade items.


    I am aware that the Nashmu exchange NPC only does ISP. It was only mentioned as comparison for a new NPC to take relic currency and exchange it. Kinda like banks do. "You give me one Shell, I'll give you one Bronze piece."
    Yes, and I merely pointed out that your comparison was between two denominations of the same currency vs two different types of currencies.

    Again, absolutely no diff than any of the other examples I've given w/ trading upgrade items.


    Again, I implore you. If you don't like an idea or suggestion leave it alone; do not hit the "Like" button or troll the thread until you can get it derailed and closed. And calling people and their ideas dumb just because you disagree doesn't really help your case at all. "Oh I disagree so he's dumb" That's the best comeback ever!!
    Comeback? That was more of a response to whoever made that suggestion, not to you, so I have no clue why you're putting a smiley face there. Unless you're claiming to be the one who made that suggestion, then yes, in that case, I am calling you dumb.

    So you believe being able to just up and trade job seals for one another isn't a dumb idea?

    It's a forum, forums are for discussions. If I don't like something, I'm not going to keep quiet because someones doesn't want to hear what I have to say.

    Besides, it doesn't make much sense "Hey, if you don't like this don't complain about it, just leave it alone". Wouldn't the same apply to you? If you don't like my responses, don't click the like button and there's no need to complain about it.

    Why not 1:1? Are the only value assigned to the Crystal War era currency the gil that can be squeezed out of someone? Maybe SE envisioned Bastok as a third world country and that is why Bynes hold no gil value in comparison to Shells and Bronze pieces. I don't know. But a NPC to trade Crystal War era currency 1:1 doesn't bother me, in fact I am in favor of it.

    I'm not saying which one should be worth more than another, but there's no reason to be 1:1. Again, it's international, different currencies. The value between differing countries is always changing, it's never static.

    Not to mention, it reduces the items in question to a mere plot device, because as actual items, they'd be 0% different.

    Can't say it's really the same thing. You have come into a thread you disagree with while those of us who do are tossing around ideas. If you don't like them, hit the back button and make your own "Anti- streamlining currency' thread instead of trolling this one til it gets closed. And you have my word I wont show my face in your thread. I don't take time to read the threads I disagree with.
