ooids for sale on MB, 500k ridiculous

Day 1 is really not a good time to gauge the long-term prices. I don't know what it takes for gatherers to get this stuff, but I don't think these will ever be affordable until they start nerfing or handing Mars out through other channels. IIRC, Ehcatl Sealants were 6-800k on day 1 on my server. After about a week or so, they stabilized at 500k and then slowly dropped over the next 2-3 months to like 200k.

While I don't know much about the gatherer side, for crafters, it takes 2-3 turn-ins to get one of Rowena's tokens. Turn-ins use i150 gear. Current material costs for those are around 100k a pop on my server. So each token takes 250k Gil worth of turn-ins to get, and it takes a bunch of those tokens.

My feeling on this is everything will be too rich for my blood until they nerf it (and I started Heavensward with 67mil).

thus we don't have interdependence just a massive blow to crafters.

Crafter scripts and gather scripts are both needed for the new mats, both highly gated by weekly lockout.

These can only be obtained by decently geared lvl 60's, Sealants were obtainable by low lvl's, alts etc.

Sealants were used only for the crafting and gathering items, the other mats were freely farmable (allagan silk etc).

The difference between these new mats and the sealents (that were bad enough) is night and day.
