    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.
    Ok I’m sorry but in what world is an Ilevel 740 single piece worth 700k?!

    Literally every piece is between 100-200K in my server. I genuinely find it hard to believe prices are that inflated across servers.

    Are you sure you weren’t looking at the weird augmented gear that’s barely ever in stock except at ridiculous prices? I don’t really think they’re meant to be bought; you can do just as well with the cheaper normal ilvl740 crafted gear.

    Yeah it's insane. There isn't much gear up so my guess is that that is the reason why it's expensive. Some of the Jewlery was literally 1.5 Mil thats why we were hopping worlds.

    1M can be a lot to get if you don't actively play the game between patches but they should also have been aware of that when they returned to the game and maybe returned a few days before to do some content and get gear from normal raids, dungeons, etc.

    It's also the case that most FCs have a crafter that can make or has made some gear, so that they either wouldn't need to buy it or they'd have the gil to buy it. I've never been in an FC that does not have one of these, ever, so your FC seems like an outlier.

    Moreover, submarines and airships exist for the purpose of FCs making huge sums of gil in order to help their FC members, so you could look into those.

    They were that inflated on my server actually (1M), because people bought them on a mass scale to augment them. If I wasn't lazy I could have world visited for a better price though.

    1 million is definitely a lot for me, I generally have around 1.5 - 2 million max, so blowing most of that on gear just to do the newest content can be frustrating, but honestly, I just do the older dungeons for practice to get my chops back (what chops I have :3) and bonus, I get the gear I need.

    A lot of reasonably polite crafters will make you a whole set for free if you supply a specific requisite material.

    Don't wanna work? Then don't feel entitled to be in a raid where the game itself is telling you to get better gear, or you will be gatekept from it. By the game.

    Thanks for the worthless comment because guess what, we weren't gatekept from anything. The game is designed for people to hop back in and play immediately and with an arbitrary barrier, we still did.

    I hope that thought continues to make people like you and the others who think their way to play is the only way, mad, because the reality is that most of you people are the ones who got this game in the state that it's in.

    Also, My gear was 745 so I was good. Again I was helping others. But you would have known that if you would have actually read my post and didn't start seeing red the second you felt your personality, aka the game get critiqued for literally any reason at all.

    I've been reading the thread. This comment perfectly encapsulates what's wrong. But if I took the time to explain why you would take just as much if not more time discrediting it.

    You were given the solution to your problem multiple times my friend in Hydalaen.

    You basically said nothing in this comment. This reads like "i'm right but i'm not gonna tell you why because you would have a credible rebuttal". Great job with this one.

    You people are gonna have to do better if you think you're gonna get by me with your insane takes. You read the thread and im willing to bet you just liked everything that went with your bias instead of hearing anything out that was a different opinion. I'm pretty sure I've knocked out just about every argument most people have brought and not a single person has been able to tell me why we can't trade dungeon gear. Instead they have argued everything else under the sun and have tried to tell how I and others SHOULD play the game when they don't pay my sub and we aren't breaking any rules.
