Gil Loss

[Romowens01]

I'm honestly not that worried about the gil. It irritated me at first but I can make it back. But the way this will work. Is that everyone who did the Atomos exploit is gonna be rewarded and the rest of the community is going to feel screwed. Or at least that's the feeling I have been getting from talking to folks over the last few weeks.
Honestly even with them reducing the denomination I do not see it drastically changing the prices of things in the long run. Take away the digit. People will still charge the same percentage they were before. So I honestly do not see this as a solution to the problems that will/would most likely arise for new players.

Also let me clarify. I'm not crying or complaining. I honestly do not see it as a big issue. I'm just pointing out that it's not going to change anything in regards to the market.

This will not be an issue as long as the open market adjusts itself accordingly. And as much as anyone will say it will, we all know that there are greedy people out there. Take this example...
On my server +50 str bracers sell for 30mil, that is 3% of max.
When we get to 2.0, those same bracers (with keeping percentages) should sell for 3 mil.
What will happen... those bracers will be right back on the market for 30mil when 2.0 hits.
And someone will buy them for 30 mil.
Which will make 5 others sell their's for 30 mil.
And the new norm is that the same bracers previously costing 3% of max gil are now going to cost 30%.
Now granted, some of the best war/mnk gloves you can buy in the game probably should be more than 3% of max gil. But saying that the free open market will correct itself is a joke.

I just hope that there is a bunch of content at launch because I'm not touching the wards (besides setting up my retainers icsh) until months after relaunch.
