We need more ways to make gold in this game.

I think you're the one missing the point. I sold to a vendor, not to a player.

Keep in mind too that in 1.0 leves gave just about the same amount of gil, and repairs at a merchant also took about the same amount of gil(which is 10x the numerical value you see now). During that time, the economy was pretty far from collapse still.

That being said, I'm not even saying that it's sufficient or that it's efficient or a desirable mode of play. However, hyperbole saying there's absolutely no way to make gil, that doesn't come from leves and doesn't come from players, won't get you anywhere.

Ok sry I've misread that. But that's somethign pretty wierd. I've never played an MORPG where it was usefull to sell anything to the NPC. Did you gather the ingredients for it yourself?
