ARR Gil Cap Reduction

[Orophin]

100mil isn't a lot of money in this game and there will be thousands of pissed off players when including people who have quit and are waiting for V2.

It'll be a lot of money in ARR once they cap you.

You do realise that we will only have one retainer in V2 right?

Do you have a source for this? I don't remember them saying we're losing a retainer, only that their max inventory will shrink.

so the most cost effective thing to do is reduce your gil to <10,000 and stockpile gear you can then resell once ARR comes out. you lose no gil, but have invested it all.

I guess my plan is to get a stockpile of armors (which may become useless) and see how the materia systems is adjusted and remeld stuff based on what is now considered "optimal"

Pretty risky considering certain things may drop in value due to less money being in circulation, and we don't know how less effective materia will become.

100 million gil is quite a lot of money. I don't see any reason to go on some mass spending spree to hoard it all, unless you just have so much more over the new cap.
