Low level market seems to be dead

[Archona]

Confirmed with Disciple of the Hand lead

Currently there are no plans to add any new low/mid level crafting recipes.
We designed FFXIV so that gear obtained from dungeons is more effective than crafted items.

For their first class, players can gain equipment from the main quests so we don't think they should face any problems. But we believe there are other chances to use low-level gear, such as creating materia or equipping them when leveling a second class.

Its like you dont even play this game.

There is absolutely no use for low level gear or low level materia. When leveling a second class, you already have Grand Company gear, dungeon gear, and you can just buy white gear from vendors if you're that lacking. Either way, it will only last you a few hours, maybe a day or so, before you outlevel it and replace it.

So basically, thank you for confirming in your two posts that crafting is useless and will remain useless.
