    I know someone that has made 40mil off this event as of last night. How is that not overwhelming?

    Contrary to you saying you think it needs to be nerfed in the long run, I can see how you fail to see how this whole situation is wrong in the first place.

    I think you're failing to understand what I meant by that...

    That sure sounds like someone who has hours and hours to play to me. Meaning they could of made that gil regardless.

    I dont really care what they do. I didn't spend every waking moment doing atomos anyways. Else I might have made 40mil instead of 8.

    But lots of people did, that's the problem. Back in the day, leve linking made gil flow like water, this was like making the economy take a drink from a fire hose.

    Faucet will not be open any longer once the event is gone, therefore no more inflow of seals, thus no more seal trading for drops.

    If the event went on forever, it would need nerfed as the amount of gil in the world would be too overwhelming for markets to keep up. However, inflation causes these intakes to equalize. It's people being petty with gil that think it's a problem.
    I though it was being nerfed about atomos like Yoshi said?

    You're not mistaken, I'm arguing economics.

    But I know said person; they're in my linkshell. Yes, they do have a lot of time on their hands to play, but they normally would not go out of their way to try to make money. They would have not made 40mil, or even half that, any other way prior to ARR.

    I'm not saying everyone that abused Atomos doesn't have alternative means of making money, but I'd challenge if most of them could have made that same amount of money in the same amount of time or even before the game shuts down.

    According to a reply to one of my earlier posts, it's highly possible to make that or even half that in the time remaining. Regardless if they went out of their way before to make/get gil, they still have the option. Some of us don't unless we want to lose our REAL job.

    Say you have 10 hours to play, and can make 10k an hour, thats 100k.

    I only have 2 hours to play, at 10k an hour. I made 20k.

    The weekend comes, saide person has 500k to upgrade their gear or whatever, i have 100k to buy maybe 2 items that need an upgrade from leveling. Meaning i need to spend another week upgrading. Might be a little hazy, but i think you get what im trying to say.
