Why do you need to put crafters' gears being seperate again?

[MN_14]

Let me get this straight,





So who is producing all these intermediate products that are sold at a premium?

Since we ruled out omni-crafters ... that leaves only specialists. Who else can craft?

∴ Intermediate products are sold and purchase at a premium by specialists. The solution is clear. Sell intermediate products and make a killing! (Gil is gil.)

Desynths, which are expensive by nature. The price of raw materials, in fact, fluctuate between being cheaper than the desynths and more expensive. As I said earlier, you'd need more market participants, which mean an army of specialists is needed (since omni-crafters don't participate). As an omni-crafter, I'm not affected by this. But I can clearly see what would happen if I was stuck to a single class.

Selling intermediates could raise gil, but the profitable items change on a constant basis. You'd need to be very effective at playing the market and hope your class can produce the currently profitable one. It's unpredictable.

Hmm, one actual surefire way of earning a constant stream of income would be to get into desynthing yourself, but you'd need 3 million gil or so to start.
