I agree the bots and the silly undercutters (dropping it by 30,000 just because) have ruined the crafting market. And I detest the bots and SE should absolutely do something.

But I’d argue that if crafting and selling was the only fun you had in the game then I think there’s bigger problems for you than bots.

It’s incredibly hard if not impossible to make those ridiculous Gil numbers you used to be able to. But let’s not pretend that you can’t make enough Gil to buy anything you want. I’m averaging a few million a week simply from retainers, eureka challenge log, roulettes and a tiny bit of crafting.

I can’t believe that someone that spends lots of time crafting and gathering their own mats isn’t making bank. You just aren’t able to dominate a market like you could before.
