What I find funny with this is, the people that ACTUALLY took advantage over being a 50 miner first, etc etc and got rich because of their hard work got bent over by SE because of " RMT " excuse and had most of their money ripped away.
Lets take a step back and look at the big picture.
First set of rushers make it to 50, on either DoW/DoM and DoL/DoH. The First surge of money from DoM/DoW is spent trying to get relic as fast as possible, their starter 300 - 400k from quests. All of this money gets stockpiled on the first DoL/DoH players. RMT has already been starting to happen. ( RMT is in EVERY game. EVERY. So lets think outside of the box and think of the economy as a whole with a handful of super super rich at the moment from sucking all the first endgame rushers of their big quest gil paychecks. )
Use RMT as an excuse to suck most of the money out of the game and away from the hands of the minority who built it up fast. Everyone starts now off at a clean slate, and the mad influx of money is overwith since this is no longer launch. Coupled with the fact the first rushers began to level DoH/DoL and the prices of level 50 mats plummets, so you now have economical balance. Also, you can't right off theb at solo afford the biggest FC houses available at 2.1 launch and thus trivilizing the most expensive purchase in the game thats upcoming.
Its just icing on the cake to increase exp gained for gathering to cause less items to be up on marketboard, since lower exp per swing on a node, equals more items gathered.
But anyway, yeah, the exp change for gathering is a good thing.
