Transfer gold between charactere of same account bannable?

Hello, i have 2 characteres on same account. I use one of my charactere to make legit money by gathering mining ore and run Aka and them i sent it to my main charactere. I put item like leather to sell for 100k on my main charactere retainer and i buy it with my goldmaking charactere retainer. This way i can transfer gold. Is seem i didnt broke any agreement i made to play this game but i need a confirmation from Square enix. Will i get banned? customer support answer. Thank!

This makes it look like you're botting mining or AFKing AK while you play a different character, because there's no good reason to have two characters.

why go the round about way and put items on the market, just fricking send the money over moogle mail.

Because you cant friend yourself to send money via moogle

You are better off getting a friend to pass the money for you.

Using the market board in this fashion could be considered an exploit, as you are messing with the prices on the market board for your own personal reasons.

Yeah, I think if SE wanted people doing this, they'd let you send mail in-between characters via Mog Mail. I can understand why you might want to have a second character (additional 1-50 quests, inventory management, etc), but transferring via retainers and the market boards probably looks suspicious.

not really, putting something like 1 animal leather up for 100k is so absurd and out-there as an actual market price, people will just ignore it anyways. plus the transfer would take like 2 minutes, so it'll only be there and gone in the blink of an eye.


Though, i'm surprised you can't mail it to an alt character.
Like someone said, use a friend to help you transfer (someone irl).
Do not use the market board, every time you do, you're losing 5% of your assets with every transfer (+5% more if from a different city).

In other mmo i have several cap charactere, is normal for me to play 2 charactere. I love the look of the gears from taller humain and is fun to play funny size Lalafel. I just understand after long playing time that i dont really need more them one to play this game, i will just do the hard way grinding and wait for rest bonus, allowance. Thank for answering.

Not really. He's not doing it to mess with the AH history, and I would assume he's only selling 1 leather at that price; hardly enough to make the history look any different. The worst SE would probably do was an investigation, during which they might or might not ask him to stop. It's hardly bannable, not an exploit.

The real issue here is simply moving items from one character from another. Surely SE doesn't want to prohibit that, I would guess they just didn't think of a way to implement it yet. TBH the OP is just more clever than the other 5000000 people who are just complaining that they can't.

No you may think they are absurd but people dont think, on my serve FAMFRIT, someone sold allagan bronze pieces for 10,000 each and someone bought them, now everyone is listing them at this price

ROFL thats insane. Man...

To the OP, I don't think SE intends for players to transfer gil/items between characters in this fasion, for this particular game. In other MMO's it wasn't a big deal, because you could just mail your other character, but if they don't make it easy in this game, then its probably for a reason.

I consider it an exploit, because if the devs intended for the sidesquests/storyquests to be repeatable (hence the gil that comes with completing them), they would have done so. So now we have a way of generating all the gil from the cake sidequests to one character. With 8 character slots per server, that's 8x the gil of a typical playthrough.

But even so........ generating all that gil early and putting it on one character just seems like an exploit. Even if the OP made gil legitimately, it should (ideally) stay on that character.

So if a player is about to quit and gives his gil to a friend, is that an exploit?

I can't officially tell you if it is or not. I'm not part of the moderation team or a dev or something. But as far as I know, if a player quits playing the game, he/she only quits one time. In my opinion, an exploit is something that is unintended, and is frequently and repeatedly manipulated. So no, a one time donation by a friend wouldn't be an exploit.

I can see big FCs convincing their members to make 7 more characters on the server just for the extra gil to beef up the FCs funds now, too. Sad state....
