Nerf old primal weapons recipe please.

Please don't nerf them, they are glamour items and are already significantly cheaper than they used to be. OP just needs to learn not to be lazy and farm/grind like the rest of us.

I've done Garuda Ex 150 times. I only got 1 feather.

Yes, this crap needs to be changed and people saying otherwise should be ignored. This was already stupid when the content was new, and it's beyond stupid now that the content is old.

What should be done is that all primals drop a token of sorts that you can then trade in for a weapon/item/mount. Take the RNG crap out of this already.

They should either add those drop as a chest loot like the mirror from leviathan, or add a token like diamond dust to upgrade to the NPC.
I always wondered why the fuck do we have to lvl up craft for those weapons when the others don't need it. Mean if you hate the craft you just go fuck yourself.

You could just play the market like most people, get the gil and buy a feather, people want to nerf everything nowadays, if you want something work for it, like every one else who has them did before you. These items are glamour items and some of the best looking weapons in this game, they shouldn't be nerfed until new crafted primal weapons are introduced.

So what, do we have to spend 9M-15M gils for an old fashion weapons? We're not all buying at chinesefarmer.com! Why should we have to spend so much when 5 shiva run is enough to have our fashion ffs

You know if you get the materials and get a crafter to make them for you they cost like 1-3mil right? (excluding mog)

I got the Holy Key of Tremors crafted for me last week and it cost me 1.7mil

It's still too much I never have more than 1M5 gils on me, and a primal weapon shouldn't cost anything basically, 'cause it's primal weapon.

Have you heard of the saying "Glamour if the real end game"?

Thats because you have to be able to play the end game well to be able to get it...making money is part of that.

I already have a job. When I log into FFXIV I want to have fun, not a second job.

Grinding gil is not fun for the majority of the playerbase, yet it keeps getting constantly jammed down our throats just to please greedy players that want the rest of the server farming gil to hand to them. The Market Board has turned into a cancer for this game with so many things tied to it to keep prices high.

And most important of all, I did suggest that primal items should be bought with tokens obtained from actually fighting the primal, yet you are against it and want to keep this RNG crap in the game. You're apparently against people doing work related to the actual primal fight, and instead want to force people into farming gil.

Sooner or later those 'cheaper' weapons are going to go up in price as well as the existing horns and rocks and feathers and whatnot are used up and essentially no new ones are going to enter the circulation.

Do you really think people are going to run Titan Ex at level 50 over and over and OVER for ONE glamour? No, they'll either settle for the standard drop version or find something else entirely. The crafting mats for these weapons were collateral damage from stopping people easily farming other things, I sincerely doubt the intent was to stop THESE from dropping.
