Please For the Love Of God Remove gear Bonding

Disclaimer: Grammar not my strong suit so yeah you can fix it up and re-post it but what i am saying is tru you can make money from stuff you already have worn.


I really hate the fact that i can not sell an item because it is bonded to me The for one ruins my Emerson . I do not like taking nice items and tossing to the ground where another player in my fc or Market boards can use after my use of it . IDK what you do make a thrift store make an npc named Mackelmore this has to stop not only is SE just filling our inventory its making the economy crap. Why not just drop it ? Here is why I spend 200k on matreria i spend gil on mats spend gil on crafter (if you dont have crafter class lvld or 3 star you get no return on your investment yes you can return it to materia but then you make a Battledance I materia and what you do now your out of money and you dont want to waste an item like that to the ground so you horde it

Flood markets with more supply, lower the value of items etc.

But he could do it in XI, until of course they started canning devs and brought in some with sense that started making more things unique/untradable.

Yes, let's remove binding from everything, and watch the comparatively minor RMT spam we have today turn into a godsdamed deluge. That sounds like a fantastic* idea.

(*only if you're an idiot or pining for stupid anachronisms)

unfortunately the entire point of the unique/untradeable gear is that it allows that gear that is tradeable to be lower in value because players will instead be going after the unique and untradeable gear because it is generally better and more preferable.

As for Spiritbond, it is an effect that is present in almost every MMO at this point to prevent players from selling gear that they have used and no longer want. I don't see a problem with it generally speaking. In some games it prevents the sale of ridiculously expensive items after they have been used, thereby preventing the breakage of the market.

Consider yourself fortunate gear doesn't bind to you in this game until you enter combat. Most games gear will bind once equipped, at least you have a little leeway in FFXIV.

Someone mention RMTs right rmts will be here with or without this i get tells and there is spam in towns so please spare me your guiltiness because you purchase gil and dont want to buy more because there is nice gear on market boards Next


So If i make an item 5 stack it and then get lets say high alligan and no longer need said item and another person of same class can use it and he has the gil and also would make some moey on his return then why not do it that way

If your making the gear for the purpose of using it as a In between item then your spending money you cant recoup

That the whole point, its is a gil sink to keep the economy healthy, otherwise the amount of money would just keep going up up and up.

[Gethyn]

Gear binding to you is the only thing that makes it remotely worth selling. The game is already flooded with gear. If you don't take some of it out of circulation, there will literally be no point to crafters.
