how to make 10mil+ gil a day (and its effect on 2.0?)

[Sylkis]

SE is actively creating a huge huge divide between the rich and the poor in a game that is trying to relaunch and attract an entirely new playerbase. Its like if the US told middle class people in the UK "come to the US and be poor and live in the ghetto, trust us, you will love it"

A combination of botting and horrible economic policy has made this games economy a joke. And trying to launch a game when its economy is a complete failure will just result in a string of bad reviews about how the game is horribly managed.

Especially when all the modern MMOs have pro economists on their teams who know what they are doing.

You can help by not making another thread and not participating in the event. See you again next year!

Yeah, there isn't as much money in it as you might make it out to be Azury. The thing is everyone is doing it and undercutting the hell out of each other, and they aren't selling near as fast as they are going up.

aren't they reducing the amount of gil everyone has by a fraction?

just reducing cap from what i've read. Not people's gil.
edit: even if they reduced gil, people are currently inflating prices now, and buying up items. Which means the entire economy will be a mess regardless.

Yoshi P basically said they are removing a zero... so every gil amount will go down to 1/10 of what it is now, including our own gil, npc prices, everything... so it should have any real impact on the actual economy.

I've noticed a huge spike in prices also. I thought it was mainly because of dwindling supply -- people not gathering or SBing as much since many are occupied with chasing Atomos around.

I didn't know we could make gil out of this, but maybe that's also giving some players the cash to actually buy things at these higher prices. I don't think the gil making was SE's intent when implementing this event, but it was definitely an oversight that people are taking advantage of.

On the bright side, this is probably largely affecting the upper end of the economy. It is still possible for new players to earn gil, and lower level items should still be affordable both now and into ARR... I hope.

lol ppl could do this with potions before atomos it was easy to pile seals spending a weekend on caravans just most of us never thought about doing this o.o and for the record 10mil is nothing for crafters going for double/triple melds all those millions will explode on your face and everyones doing the same

This just in, the only way to get the 500k seal achievement is to either do this or start buying things and dropping them to the ground. Unless you plan on using alot of exp scrolls an expectorants you would still reach cap going for the 500k seal achievement after buying every piece of gear from your respective grand company disallowing you to turn in anything else.

Mind blowing isn't it? The system was flawed to begin with.

Your formula is wrong, you didn't account for the time spent buying them and NPCing them. You also didn't have any variables for RNG if you get crystals or not.

whm, mnk, blm relics are around 10 mil? i said in 3 days. 30mil got you the most expensive relic on my server a week ago

I accounted for all that. And left about 5mil room for error. In reality you can prob make 15mil a day. I half-played all day and got over 400 crystals. Often only getting the one stone in a session because i was to distracted to port to another camp in time.

Unfortunately most of us work and can't play 16 hours a day.
