Crafting Question in the upcoming update.
Hello all you lovely crafters. As people get hyped up about Crystal Tower, FC housing and other new things in general, i'm kind of scared of the upcoming change. It's been confirmed that level 80 gear will be dropping Crystal Tower. Now, I understand crafters will have a lot to do in terms of the crafting items for housing, but how does it affect lvl 80?
I was told(not sure if this has been confirmed) with the expansion, Tomes will be even easier to farm. This will drop prices even further for the ilvl 70 Crafted gear. What's the point of Gil(besides buying a house) and Materia when it comes to higher level gears?
Currently, ilvl70 Jewelry exceeds 90, only if it is melded correctly. I'm assuming the lvl 80 gear will be unmeldable, uncraftable, and unobtainable for those who don't raid. In the end, lvl 90 gear and (currently) lvl 70 melded jewelry are the best. So what happens to craftable gear?(not jewelry, gear). In other words, are crafters who make gear screwed?
