Need a new way to make GC Seals

[Welsper59]

My biggest gripe with the whole GC seal system is the imbalance in ways to obtain the seals. If I take 2 days to level another job to 40 I'll have 50,000 seals. If I don't level a new job the most seals I'll get is roughly 1,000 a day. No point to turn in expensive products to gain 300ish seals.

? How would you obtain 50k seals as a lower level job, but not be able to do the same as a higher level (specifically lv50)? FATEs still reward you seals at 50 if I recall right.

At the moment GC seals can be made via two methods, running fates and GC leves. One of the main uses of seals other then equipment is the manuals that boost gathering and crafting, so if you'd like to level up a DOL/DOH profession, seals are almost a necessity.

Since, as a gatherer or crafter, leves are too important for us to waste on seals we either have to level up a new character or use an already existing level 50 to grind seals running fate. This really doesn't seem like something that was really thought out.

The manuals are not meant to be a necessary/mandatory part of your crafting/gathering experience. They are extremely nice, but just like rested exp, are not meant to last forever. You'll have to put in the time if you want that boost, time which could otherwise be spent leveling your craft normally. It's somewhat along the lines of leves. It's your choice to only level through leves, you'll just have to wait for leve refills, which is essentially the same as putting in time to farm seals for the manuals (a certain amount of time until you get the things you want). It's thought out well enough, you just haven't come to terms with it because you view them as mandatory.

Yes you can gain seals grinding level 50 fates as a level 50 but that's all you're gaining... I rather take a little longer acquiring those seals while leveling up another class. (2 birds with 1 stone)

I feel like the game awards a decent number of seals as-is. Though, I do feel that dungeons should reward seals. I prefer running dungeons to doing FATEs, so I don't get nearly as many seals as those who just grind FATEs.
