Very Important Game breaking FATE Bug

First and foremost I want to say that I'm sorry for deceiving you, but there isn't a place for me to put something like this.

FATEs are broken. They give way too much XP and the seals give gear that is WAY too good. People hyper level through fate grinds and use seals to get op Grand Company Gear. Not only does this mean that they out level too quickly, but it also means that the economy for the game plummets into nothingness because no one is buying gear from armors or black smiths.

No one is buying gear, gear can't be sold at a price that increases the sellers revenue even the slightest (In fact it cost more to make the items than you get from selling it).

Solution:

1. Reduct the amount of seals and XP gained through fates, and increase the Gil gained.
2. Increase HQ item stats to surpass the stats gained from GC gear.

Not only does this mean that they level max too quickly, but it also means that the economy for the game plummets into nothingness because no one is buying gear from armors or black smiths.

No one is buying gear; gear can't be sold at a price that increases the sellers revenue even the slightest. In fact it cost more to make every item than you get from selling it. There is literally no item that can be made for less than it can be sold for.

Solution:

FATEs:
1. Reduct the amount of seals and XP gained through fates. 1/2 or even 1/3 the amount. (Nerf)
- This reduces hyper leveling and seal income. This in turn prevents the dead economy.
2. Increase the Soul Bound % when doing a FATE. x2 or even x3 the speed (Buff)
- This allows the destruction of items which helps circulate the economy.
3. Increase the Gil gained from FATEs. 3x to 4x the current amount. (Buff)
- This increases the incentive to spend your gold rather than just waiting to get your gear from a mission.
4. Disable any % Exp Boost other than food and rested XP from FATES.(Nerf)
- An addictive to help prevent hyper leveling.

Jobs:
1. Increase HQ item stats to surpass the stats gained from GC gear. (Buff)
- increases the incentive to purchase Player HQ items other than getting seals and Fate grinding.
- Note that if this were implemented, the need to nerf the amount of seals you get in Fates would not have to be implemented.
2. Implement the GC gear bonus stat to gear Smiths and Armorers can make. (Buff)
- This, again, increases the incentive to not only perches more gear, while also lowering the incentive to wait for better items to come to you in a mission. You can now get an item from a mission, and buy the whole set for an extra buff.

Odd... the armor I've been crafting is selling just fine.

Unless it's mythril, you're most likely not making a profit.

Sounds to me like you're trying to do an extreme mark-up on gear and noone is buying it.

You need to upgrade your GC so much I don't even have time to spend it on gear from GC, and hell I have better gear from just instances. People shouldn't even be buying GC gear until 45+ in all honesty.

I seriously had to LOL at this. I just started crafting and I have been selling gear left and right. I am talking about items that cost me at MOST 15-20 gil but that's only IF I have to buy something I cant gather myself and then I am selling most items for 100 gil minimum. Last night alone I made an easy 10k just selling all the stuff I been making to lvl up my craft skills and that's just the gear I decided not to keep. Please stop crying and lower your prices until they are reasonable... then they MIGHT actually sell.
