Are you using grade 3 for every seed? For now we will stick it out using junkmonger hoping we will luck out on a retainer venture. After the current crop for choco food gets harvested we're going to start for broombush. Should have done it the other way around in hindsight. Brooms first then food. It would just be nice to have separate gardens for those goals. I thank you for that crossbreeding planting info, it's much appreciated.
QoL for smaller FC houses.

We have the same issues. For now I placed a junkmonger in my room and it is open access to all members so they can come buy the brooms when needed. Not a solution for everyone but it works for now

I do not understand the fc outfitting crafters with melds. As a crafter that is something I do myself. Like getting tomes for gear.

Why wouldn't a fc help crafters with melds or gatherers? Specially if that is what they specialize in? I gather while my wife crafts. Another member splits his time between both. We're all casuals and no there isn't actually 22 members. Most of those are mules for gear storage etc. I also battlecraft so what little time I am on I have to decide what to do. Penta melding costs you in failed melds depending on how dumb the rng feels like being.
Fc's should help their members as well as members should help their FC's. Otherwise whats the point? You're just using people or each other. Hey gsm make me this now or I'll kick you out! Uh I can't make that because I'm not fully melded :( Broke from melding ; ; . type scenario. Extreme example anyways. So we help each other with stuff because that's how it's supposed to work. -

Other people cant access the npc you put in your room, but if you put a junkmonger in there you can just have the owner buy the brooms and people pay them the 20k for it.
As for 20k, think of that as the cap. If people make the brooms, they have to sell for under 20k, otherwise people will just buy from the NPC.
I don't like the garden patch caps though. We have a few gardeners in our FC and now that chocobo colour seeds are out, we've had to tell everyone for the time being they can only plant one thing at once and share the garden until we work out a system (before it was mainly first come first serve, members just regulated and left a bit of room for others) -
08-21-2014, 11:04 AMWelsper59That. They said that was the intent with it being sold by the NPC. The price on the NPC sets the maximum that the market should be at (unless it's a clueless buyer). If people buy Broombush for the brooms, which is the primary reason people do (and not so much for the minion or anything), that also sets the price of Broombush itself. On Leviathan, Magicked Stable Broom sells for ~14k or so, when I checked yesterday. If people are pricing broombush to the point that it costs more to make the stable brooms than it is to just buy them from the NPC, that price won't last long at all on the market. And like anything else that is gardened for and takes multiple gardening sessions to get, seeing it up for somewhere around 200k per SHOULD be considered the norm.Quote:
