Coil ruined the craft.

The pricing is overpriced, thàts why people don't buy it. You should also consider that the gear is more beneficial only when fully melded which adds another chunk of gil to the purchase price.

Do not forget that i70 was completely new. Coil was new too, there was no i80 only after a few months. Now people know that the i90 craftables are a matter of weeks before they become useless (if you run Coil). The soldiery gear is better too.

Im glad that crafters can't craft the best gear in game. It's not a skill to have your friend craft you te best gear or save up money and buy it (which actually is some sort of a skill).

What SE needs to do is let crafters craft amazing looking gear. No stats on them. You know why people will still buy it? Glamour, I would.. This game cries for options to not look like the other 16000 thousend casters, or the other 5 tanks on a server. xD
