Post Your Solution For Gil Generation

[Orsnoire]

Imo, the amount of gil generated is good enough.

In the last mmo, easily 1 billion coins were being injected in the market easily. That's still happening, and guess what happened? Everything is more expensive, some people have almost no coins, and others are like in-game versions of Bill Gates.

Atm, we get money though leves, and quest. That's more than enough. Why do we need to have 1 million coins if our buying power is going to be the same anyway. If you want to make money, go gather mats, or craft and sell.

The answer to this question, and the real elephant in the room, is that the game's biggest gil sink to date (i.e. housing) is getting introduced with patch 2.1, and VERY few have anywhere near the gil that's going to be required. That's why has those of use who have no real problems generating PERSONAL gil are alarmed: while we have enough to buy these gil sinks, it's going to dramatically hurt the economy and slow down the market boards when those gil sinks come online if something isn't fixed before that happens.

I disagree. It does not matter to the average player whether you have 5 million gil in your bank account, or just spent 5 million gil on a new house; the money is not in circulation in either case.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: The truth is that no one on these forums know the true balance of gil in vs gil out for the entire economy. Only SE has these numbers, and although they are not letting them out, it is in their best interest to maintain a proper, low inflationary balance. Since this is the case, then it really does not matter in the grand scheme of things how new the gil that is in any individual player's account is. If you don't want to make new gil, get the gil from other players, and don't worry about it.
