Pointless Crafting?

[NyneAlexander]

Its not that the markets have crashed. Its that the things we consider valuable have changed. Philo stone crafts aren't valuable anymore because A.) many many people have moved onto myth AF2 and B.) every single thing you are spamming weekly for other stuff ALSO gives you philo stones. I capped my philos last week on accident because I was running CT a lot. So prices will adjust themselves out based on supply and demand and us crafters just have to re-evaluate how we make gil.

Other people have said it, but cooking (although its an inventory nightmare and tedious in how many crafts you have to do) is becoming quite lucrative. Since food buffs don't wear on death, it has become standard for raiders to come correct with food buffs.

You wanna make some money? Get back in the kitchen and start cooking!

Crafting is more for self-sustaining. Making money with crafting is too much of a hassle having to deal with undercutters and playing the market looking for what might sell.
