Easier melding means I get my relic weapon cheaper, I'm all for it. pce

Maybe but you cant buy it with these changes either so you will be completely at the mercy of the rng.

Why wouldn't you be able to buy it? higher success rate on double meld = more melds on these weapons successful = more people selling them for less than they were in ARR. There will still be people silling them, tho they shouldn't cost nearly as much if they put double meld success rate at a good level.

There making melded gear Untradable, which is just stupid.

Hmmm, I missed that part. That will suck for people who dont have the right crafts high enough, unless they plan on making it possible to request melds over 1. But....... I have all crafts at 50 ^^.

But even if they don't make it possible to request double+ melds from others, at least now there will be more incentive for people to level up crafts.... needs to be more than that tho!

Where was that posted at anyways?

Ah I see I see.... well, I really wont have a problem with It. Mainly because im not really about making things just to sell. Tho it would hurt for say you finally get something to replace that melded item, but can't sell it because its untradeable. We can blame the bad RMT people for that I guess :/. But, if it was really really about RMT, they would also make materia and un-melded gear untradeable. RMTers could sell those for real dollars too.

I thought they were past implementing silly things just to attempt to counter RMT tho. They removed the "Anti-RMT" Gathering fatigue, why start adding stuff against them again... RMT gonna RMT.

Well what would happen at that point is you would materia that piece and sell the materia i suppose.

Materia'd gear are my biggest sellers. i cant sell standard gear because everyone undercuts, and they don't do it nice either they undercut you with a pile of items.
