Please make possible to exchange GC seals to Allied Seals

[Fyrebrand]

They are different currencies, used to reward/promote different kinds of content. For example, you get Allied Seals from Hunts, and GC Seals for Fates or GC Leves. The devs want players to actively participate in different kinds of content, rather than just run Fate-grinding parties all day and convert GC Seals to Allied Seals. I realize that a steep conversion rate can help offset this, but it's not the same. Besides, as you said, you have no problem attaining a ridiculous amount of GC Seals, so whatever they set the rates at there will be people who will just grind one type of content to get everything.

If the devs really want to allow you to purchase certain items with other currencies, then obviously they can just make those things available for the respective merchants.

Yes, that is what i thought at first but allied seals becoming part of old content, we can have new ways to obtain old things

Allied seals seem to be mostly for vanity items (ilvl70 gear with cool looks, furnishings, pets, chocobo dye food) and only a little bit about practical things (Oil and Sand of time, alexandrite, old myth tome items). Considering how steeply priced the vanity items are, I believe they want to keep these things rare.

It seems more likely to me that they'll add new practical items than to change the ways you can earn allied seals and I would personally would prefer it this way if they had to make a change. Like Fyrebrand, I agree that different content should offer different rewards.

Why do you assume they are becoming part of old content. There's very little to get with them as it is. They might gate the next sands/oils behind them... or some other such thing.

This would be a fair point if they didn't pile everything onto one content already. Allied Seals, Soldiery Tomes, Mythology Tomes, Sands of Time, Oils of Time...all from Hunts.
