Server transfer gil limit is too low

I don't want to server transfer, but if I ever did want to in the future I find the gil limit on transfers too low. 3m on your character 1m on each retainer for a total of 5m. In about 1 month of playing ARR I already made 10m gil.

If you think about the future and how much money people will make there needs to be a higher limit. FFXI had no limitations on how much gil you could server transfer with.

Just buy a bunch of crafted iLvl 70 gear, then resell it when you get to your new destination.

i dont see how anyone but a RMT bot can earn that much wit cost of teleporting and other things as well as to constantly repair gear i sure has heck cant keep more than 20k on my character let alont 3 mil so i think 3 on your character 1 mil on your retainer in my opinion is too high specially with all the bots running around these days.

Lots of people are stocking up on Tome mats (ash, ore, fat etc), IV materia and hq endgame mats (hq ds ingots, hq vanya silk) because there is more flexibility then buying a specific piece of gear to sell later. Markets are going to be interesting the next week or so.

Agreed, 5 mil is not a lot at all and it should be higher. Sure you can always buy items to resell, or put it on other characters and jump them too, but if it's so easy to get around the system why even have the cap so low to begin with?

Transfer two characters then. Have a friend trade your gil to an alt or you could make a new Free Company, give someone permission to invite members, have them invite your alt, promote your alt, give it permission to access the bank and then withdraw your own gil to your alt.

If you spiritbond or craft or sell seats in runs (such as Titan), you're going to have much, much more than 5mil at any given time.

So can't you just play another month and get another 10m plus. You make it sound like it is so hard to start over with half that, which would give you more than enough to invest and make it back.

Can I have half of your paycheck this month? I mean there's no reason you should need to, but I'm going to make some arbitrary rule that says you have to. You can always just work another month and make it all back though right?

Legacy servers can transfer to other legacy servers. They just can't go to non-legacy ones.
