Wouldn't increasing the maximum store of gil in the FC chest (suggested: 9,999,999,999) or/and increase player/retainer gil cap possibly alleviate RMT occurrences? IDK why but I'm under the impression that a lot of RMT cases stem from not knowing what to do with all that excess gil that's bound to pile up over years of play, like it or not.
Even with 50-million-gil mounts, they're not helping much as to put a dent in the overflowing piles of gil!
I think this would be one of the best QoL improvements, to me personally.
What do you think?
Gil cap increase?

If you really don't have a use for all that gil, I'd accept donations.

I think SE should just take all the players gil away and let them start from 0. Then there wouldn't be any of your problems and everyone would be equal!

10-04-2023, 03:02 PMICountFrom0most RMT is from botfarms that complete portions of the game on free trial over and over, then use stolen credit cards to change to full acounts, then sell both the free trial farmed gold and the millions of exp from the MSQ.Quote:

How would increasing the gil cap resolve the stated problem of players at current gil cap not having anything to do with all their gil? All you've done is give them more gil with nothing to use it on.
This is of course ignoring the absurd premise that players at gil cap are at all the source of any significant amount of RMT sold gil.
It's far more likely that players at gil cap are more willing to just dump it on any old random thing without a second thought, because those are the players that most easily return to gil cap. They'll be the ones literally gambling away millions on something as simple as a /dice. -

Just to add to the thing others mentioned, gil amount can't physically exceed 2,147,483,647 (max signed 32 bit int) unless they double the data size to 64 bits. SE is probably thrilled to increase the data flow per character just for few people and most of which is empty data.

You can solve your gil problems by buying my pizza on Midgardsormr for 55m a piece. Best pizza you've ever had or half your money back! Buy it from Fund-a-Crafter to be eligible for returns.

SE would be better off removing the items that have no purpose other than being sold to vendors for gil or reducing their Sell to Vendor value to 10 gil.

I like Gil, the more 9's the better.

They need to add a new item to the shop with all the luxury mounts:
Grants title of "Former Gillionaire" and costs 999,999,999 gil -
10-04-2023, 09:47 PMBonokiMost RMT does come from bots, but it does come from people too. Smaller scale but saying it's absolutely none would be disingenuous.Quote:

The problem of hitting the gil cap is one that I can safely say I will never encounter lol.

Honestly, if I could exchange gil directly for Crysta (the mogstation currency), that'd be awesome... even if it was a silly exchange rate.. like 100,000k for $1 worth.
I was a try-hard to get gil for my house/FC house..but after that I just kinda stopped caring, but still have like 100M just from passive income. It's honestly insane when I was used to FFXI where it was "guess another day farming honey to get enough to scrape by for the week" -

Beyond like 100m, gil honestly just becomes a novelty.

if they added a mount for player to blow all there 900mil , i would be doing treasure maps until i lose my mind , if i wanted it so badly . but i know there are players that have got that gil legit , but my jealousy would make me think those players that have that much Gil, used RMT
but i have some friends that have got lot of gil , while i only got like 40m , i spend to much and i don't do treasure maps all the time. since i can not get groups for it all the time because most of my friends got to much Gil and don't care for farming Gil.
they need more Gil sink items to make players want to do more older content, as well as new content. there is no motivation if they sent years saving for every patch. Gil has became useless to them, they got everything they want and still have a pool of Gil. i know this while since my friend can dump up to 20mil a week on the grand company standing and not sweat one bit over it. -

I will never understand why people buy gil with real money. Gil is not hard to get at all, its just a matter of knowing how. If you have a college freshman level understanding of supply and demand, you can figure it out.
-
10-05-2023, 02:59 AMNebelheimI would love to be able to exchange gil for crysta or sub tokens. It would at least provide a source of spending excess money if you already have everything you want in game.Quote:
