That's 2.5M, already over the halfway point. 12 WP runs get you 9 philo mats, which can get you 150k - 180 (ionno depends on server but this is the price on the least inflated one). There's your 4M gil. Or at least close to it.

    The prices are made to have your fc make a team effort. Not solo it.
    now what about the new players who were unlucky enough to have to roll on a legacy server to play with friends?

    Okay now this is a decent point (first one in like 4 pages lol). That sucks. I won't lie. That just sucks. I don't have experience on legacy servers but I can at least guess that the economy is still inflated. New players can still earn 8 figure gil at a much faster rate than normal servers, but yes the quest gold is a small crutch. Nothing is perfect I guess.

    Well riddle me this then, if you have no idea what the econ is like on legacy servers how can you even warant a guess at what making gil is like?

    *Edit*

    I just did some research I made a new character on Lich one of the cheaper housing severs and did some research on their more expensive items.


    LICH
    Tome items such as Potash are selling for
    --------
    16-20k
    Vanya Robe of casting is around 250k (Cost of goods 200k to make all NQ items)
    I extremely high melded crafter can guarantee a 100% synthesis on this item and make a 50k profit it sell rather quickly

    Aegis
    Tome items such as Potash are selling for
    --------
    10k
    Vanya Robe of casting is around 120k (Cost of goods 95k to make all NQ items)
    I extremely high melded crafter can guarantee a 100% synthesis on this item and make a 25k profit it sells rather slowly due to higher density of crafters that are decked

    How is this balanced? Where are people on Aegis supposed to be able to make more money than those on other servers? Hell I wont even overstate other crafts with much better/worse cost balances on Legacy vs non legacy servers.
