And you're doing it the wrong way. What you're asking is for SE to give you something that will take away from other players. That's it in a nutshell.
See now your problem is you're generalizing crafters as all rude & insulting. Your problem is that you have options to get what you need to have jug pets cheaper then the AH but you're not following thru with what people have honestly givin you as good suggestions. I'll say it again since you can't seem to follow too much..#2 Yes, Rng and Cor dont have a good arrow NPC, but... go to the ranger and cor section of these forums.... oh look! wat a surprise! Posts requesting ammo npcs.....Oh and look! For the same reasons (and they didnt even have to deal with crafters being rude, insulting them and/or ranting, I guess smithers and woodworkers are just cooler than cooks.)
"FFXi is a social game and sadly you don't get much of a chance to be social when you're humping the AH for jug pets/armor/w/e but, if you're that hardup for thinking you paying too much, stop your god damn bitching, unlazy yourself and contact the seller and ask them if they'd be willing to haggle.
nine times out of ten most crafters will sell for less sometimes to a person who's willing to buy direct from them because it saves them AH fees and helps them unload inventory on their characters to do more crafting. Hell with me and Bonecraft I had a solid stream of requests to make arrowheads and I sold them for less then AH price but I still made a tidy profit because people just threw gil at me because they knew I was doing them a service.
The same thing applies to the AH. It's people providing a service for you and that's it. You bitching about jug pets should be bought directly from NPCs just makes it look like you're wanting SE to hand you everything you want in a bag. You're being nothing more then a lazy player if you can't fend for yourself to make money in this game."
Please follow the bolded part if you don't read anything else. You're a BST which in itself is a solo job that means if you're soloing, you don't have to share your drops with anyone else. I made a ton of money off farming Despot back in the day at 500,000 gil a Gem when people cared about sky but it still doesn't detract from the whole idea that you have options that do not involve dealing with the AH.
Get out there and try it instead of making selfish requests for handouts.
@Guardian, If anything I'd like to see revamped for BST is fucking being able to Charm mobs in Abyessa. There is no reason why you shouldn't be able to seeing as how much of them are weaker then the good jug pets currently out.
