Please end your retainers HQ sales in 1-2-3.

.....Wouldn't have to do this with a proper auction house, just saying.

Thanks for the cod tim though, still no excuse for level 4 gear to be 20K

so your saying 20k is too expensaive for 30 minutes worth of work?
im not kidding thats how long it takes to get it all set up

also add in that vendors sell most of that gear, why make it

You say you're doing all three gathering classes but your sig only shows your fishing at Rank 5? Now you could be doing it on a secondary character... but with the two hour time limit that you said you have, that seems a waste of time if you have so little time to raise your primary? You also say you farm your materials... I see you are doing Goldsmiting? You should really take up Mining with your Goldsmithing... it would work well with it for materials.

Also, and I'm not saying this is a mean way... all of your classes are very low. The materials and gil you receive from leves doesn't start rising higher until about Rank 20. Once you hit that you will see a better flow of money. Now I actually am raising all 3 gathering classes and all of my crafts, I do farm as much of my materials as I can and my shell helps me get a lot as well. But I also give them materials I receive from my gathering that I don't need for my crafting. It took me a bit to get started, and while I'm not rich, I haven't really had issues with gil.

I'd get into a shell that is supportive and will help you to be honest. We support one another, help one another and work for a common goal. There is nothing wrong with receiving help from within a shell if you are giving back equally, its the way the game works.

Good Luck.


As for the TOPIC of this thread... I had forgotten about the 01, 02, 03 at the end when selling + items. I'll use it from here out to better help people find what they need until SE implements something that will allow people to see from the search menu what the item's are. :)

Take cornettes for example, they are infact a low level bonecraft in ffxi, but you need brass sheets which was a mid level goldsmith craft. And needed goldsmithing leveled to really be succsessful. Same thing with other items in ffxi. Another example is the salon sub for cooking test in ffxi the bread is actually a mid level item. Only difference is ffxiv has craft and gathering as classes. But they are the same. People just have a self made entiltement about crafting in this game. (which makes them sound crazy)

here, find all of this material in your 2hour playtime, find someone that is willing to craft it for you. i bet you'll give up halfway and just pay 20k for it. lol

I have a guide on my blog that might help. The Lodestone >>> Genine Asura blog >>> Page 3. I have listed the mobs to kill to take all crafts from 1 ~ 20, at the same time you are ranking up your jobs. I ranked up all my dow/dom jobs from 1 to 10 in one hour each with no leve involvement. I used starter gear to rank 12. I also have listed where to get the starting weapons/tools in every city. I hope it helps.

No thanks, they need to display HQ items on the search list, until then I will price them as I currently do.

The economy in this game is messed up and will continue to be until SE add some serious money sinks. Most people I know have or are approaching 100mil gil. Leves and NPCed crafted items are probably adding 200-300mil new gil to each server every day. That's a huge amount and is the source of many problems to come. So why should people with so much gil make a 20k item? If I can't sell something for over 100k, I don't make it unless it's end-game gear that I'm trying to HQ.

Low rank gear should be made by low rank crafters, new players like yourself. Problem is there aren't many new players to cater to this market. I would suggest doing some side quests for their gear rewards, get a battle class to 23 and start doing rank 30 leves. You'll get a lot of gil. Rank up gathering classes and kill mobs that drop items people want. Sell them. Do leather leves, you can make a fortune selling the hides they give you.

i am pretty sure it would be easier for the developer to simply show the full name of the item (item+1/2/3) than having people on all servers adjust the pricing.

Using the ones digit coding helps you, the vendor, the most. Saves the buyers a little bit of time. There's really no reason not to use it. Yes, naturally half the HQ's are not even going to be in the 20-cheapest on the market, but a lot of the times they are.

I will also say that folks...if your NQ thousand needle hasn't sold for 8k in the last 30 days, it's time to NPC it. It's garbage. Stop trying to sell 10 of them so people can actually look at the HQs the server has to offer.

Know when your product is trash that the market doesn't want, and don't put it up.
