Post Your Solution For Gil Generation

[Shmashed]

Why would anyone buy above the vendor price? Your logic baffles me. Of course people have to undercut vendors or else they will never sell. Basic economics

...

What I don't understand about people in this thread is what they thought the purpose of the DoH was? Merchants are primary money makers, not adventurers and this was by intentional design. You cannot be self sufficient by just leveling a DoW, which is what people want. Unfortunately, that's not how life (or the system in the game) is

Vendor price = the price you can sell the item to a vendor. The term "vendoring" has been around, and even if its not clear, I'm uncertain how you can possibly not figured this one out.

As for the rest of your post. Yeah, sure. Thats what I want, a RL simulator. Sorry folks, I can't join your dungeon group. I work 8 hours in the coal mines every day to afford my weekend warrior habit.

1) Leves award 6 allowances per 24 hours. This amount to roughly 3000 gil.
2) FATE- Roughly 95 gil per FATE.
3) Guildhest- 240gil after first completion bonus.
4) One-time only quests- Roughly 250,000 gil altogether.

Anyone else know of ways to CREATE gil that can fit into the majority of people's schedules?

Future solutions that devs may incorporate:

-After completing Hunting Log, make a repeatable weekly pafe that awards gil in place of exp.
-Creat a Bounty Board in adventurer's guild that allows hunting of NMs for gil.
-Increased amount of gil gained by selling to NPC
-Lowered repair costs
-Daily quests that award a fair amount of gil(suggested 10000 gil.)

The ironic thing is they're kind of setting us up for RMT dependence. If the only real way for gil to be generated remains the main story, and the cross-account limits remain in place, the only people who will be able to really generate gil will be RMT. Normal players won't have the time, or be willing, to be doing the main story every other week so they can keep up w/ repair costs. And even if they did, they aren't even able to send that gil to their main character currently due to the cross-account limits. So the only people it's practical for are RMTs. They'd basically have the economy by the balls...

Many of you seem to be convinced that there's more gil being destroyed than created. My only question is how do you know for sure? SE would know the figures, and I'm sure they will make adjustments as time goes on(provided that an imbalance actually exists). They made all kinds adjustments to Legacy, I don't see why they wouldn't do the same for ARR. In the beginning its easier for SE to error on the side of deflation because its easier to add more gil than try to remove it. You all need to relax.

Right now it's difficult to generate a large amount of gil in a short time. Earning it via the market is one thing, but to grind fates and leves is a pain. Right now a single dungeon run costs me 1K gold even if I never actually die during it. And the dungeon I'm currently grinding(forget it's full name, I think it's CM, the level 50 one)only gives tomestones. No gil. So I'm loosing a huge amount of gil each run just to try and gear up... for the next dungeon.Just from the 6 runs I've done, I've spent over 6k gold. and I need to run it about... 40 more times if I'm crazy enough to complete the set. thats nearly 1k gil each time. so... 40 thousand gil, if it all goes off without a hitch. how many leves would I need to run just to compensate? about 80... just to break even. And the market is a very fickled thing. you can place something you think is a good price, and a dozen people will come in, under cut.So...yea, I need another reliable source of I'll be out of gil eventually.

Get rid of repairs.

Fixed.

I'd say, repair only after being dead is enough. no need to get equipement wear when doing everything clear.
Also, let mobs in dungeon drop gils, make coffer drop gils too, and not items that you can sell for gils.

Funny how there's so many of these threads yet people still cannot differentiate between gil generating in the economy versus redistribution of wealth through trading

Not everyone gets it, and some will never understand. But the point you're making has been posted on almost every page.
