This. You may see a rush post-patch, but eventually a lot of the lower-tier mats will become more scarce. Meanwhile, the higher end mats are likely to be more saturated, and in my opinion, rightly lower in price. There's a middle ground between getting by as a player and being filthy stupid rich as a player. I veer more toward the former for the benefit of casuals, but those who enjoy the latter will certainly gnash their teeth when you threaten their domain. Personally, I'd like to see a tier of crafting goods between DL and AF2/Allagan to better help outfit players with gearing options not so much bound to dungeon spamming.
