    While I can understand things like max-level crafted gear prices could be seen as ‘expensive’ by a newer player…I feel like by the time you reach level 100 you should kinda know that the high values don’t actually reflect high costs. 190,000 Gil is literally pocket change to the majority of players - they could just discard it and it wouldn’t even make a dent in their budget. 1M for the full set, again, is an incredibly tiny amount to the majority.

    And to preface, I say this as a chronically poor (and maybe lazy) player with abysmally low stores of Gil. I have maybe 3-4M on my retainers on a good day lol; even I don’t struggle with buying crafting gear. Frankly I even threw some of it away pre-patch for inventory space. Can always just buy it again if necessary.

    What gets me is that if you don’t craft/gather literally every component by yourself (or commissioning others), the cost of item production often exceeds the sale price lol.

    Where did I say 1 mil for the full set!? We're talking 700k for a single piece in some instances. Do you people even know what you're talking about before you criticize?

    I personally don't craft or gather. It's not fun to me. My retainers don't constantly have 3-4 mill. Maybe 35k-100k. I think when people say this they expect people to play the game as much as they do, and it is completely missing the point that I mentioned. ALL OF US, JUST CAME BACK. Some longer than others and needed full gear sets. You do the math. The cheapest thing we bought yesterday was a single piece for 300k.
