I'd just like to get married in general, but I don't have a partner to marry yet. T_T

Not really jaded, just looking at the last few batches of craftable armor... seriously, 4 stars?! And I need to desynth iL90~ for required materials? And synth those with soldiery tome materials?!! Eff that!

4* Alchemy Craft, requiring ixali water x3 for one invitation, and 2 sealant to seal the letter.

So wait, waitwaitwait, they give endgame crafters hardcore endgame content and suddenly marriage is something only for the hardcore elite? Come on now. If that's not hurling jade at FFXIV, I don't know what is. Desynthing i90 may have been a serious issue before, but this is 2.4. If you can't get your hands on i90 now, there's a problem. Seriously, just run the 2.4 dungeons, hop on the Need/Need train, turn in the Antique pieces for AF1.5, and desynth like mad! And getting materials from the lowest available tomestone to craft the latest items is par for the course! That's been a thing since 2.0 with philo mats and 2.2 with myth mats.

The problem is that it's suddenly a required gate to crafting, when there's no precedence of it beforehand (and in fact it was for optional recipes that were mostly for glamour). Then there's the fact that the demimateria in question is incredibly RNG, and most desyns are not feasible to obtain it (and some cannot obtain it at all). Top that off with requiring ixali oaknots to make the best offhands and crafting sets....after a GM response said they didn't want beast tribe rewarding BiS items.

Also, Dalamud Popoto. I get those in the new 2.4 dungeons instead of the vintage or hero's jewelery. Although these don't even yield the mastercraft demimateria...

There's been a required gate on crafting since crafting was a thing, though. It's not sudden, you probably just suddenly realized its existence. In 2.0, you had to have a minimum amount of craftsmanship to craft 1-star items like the crafter's AF gear. That's just how crafting is. Content -> Gate -> More Content -> Another Gate -> Even More Content. That's how MMOs work. So there is absolutely a precedent for this. I'm sorry it took you this long to realize that crafting isn't as casual a thing as it is in other MMOs. It requires a lot of hard work.
