Server transfer gil limit too low.

[MurakumoMillennium]

If u are concerned about not being able to transfer all ur gil, then u are one of the reasons of having the gil transfer limit in the first place.

If you're not concerned about being able to transfer all of your gil, then you are one of the reasons the economy is in shambles in the first place. "I don't need gil, so I'll just bomb the price of every item I sell into nothingness to get it out of my inventory!".

The problem is the lack of demand and not the fact that you can't sell your stuff for ridic prices.

Many items have a huge demand for them, namely 1 stars and various HQ gear sets that turn into T3-4 materia. Prices used to be high for many of them, but in some situations such as the one on Leviathan, there's one guy who undercuts himself and pushes prices down to 0 profit or sometimes into the negative unless you gather everything yourself. Take opportunity cost into consideration, and it's just a bad situation all around. It doesn't have anything to do with supply, demand, or competition for selling an item.

Then just buy from him.. I just don't understand why hate on undercutters. They also work hard to make their items like you do. Maybe you think your time's worth more than theirs?

Tell your friend to spend his gil on Allagan metal pieces on his server, he won't lose as much compared to buying other items when transfering over.

My friend wants to transfer to my server but he doesn't want to lose 15m gil. You can only take 3m with you when you transfer. Does anyone else thing this is way too low? Personally I have 11m I would lose a lot of I transferred myself not that I plan to.

With stuff like 300m house prices you can see how 3m is almost nothing.

The low transfer limit is a hindrance to people that want to transfer to a new server to play with their friends. FFXI had no limit on how much gil you could server transfer with so why does FFXIV?

Tell him to create four alts, transfer 3m to each character, and then server transfer all 5.

No these undercutters lower the price by 50-100% and sell at a loss...

[Zoomie]

Is the gil cap for xferring different based on what server you're headed to? It probably should be...

For example on some servers the economies vary greatly. On Brynhildr someone having even 5m is a veritable forture. Its understandable that there is a cap to go there. It seems like SE just needs to come up with economical brackets so to speak and restrict gil on that basis.

Spend your gil on decent selling items that will transfer. Max out shards/crystals, buy high level materia/gear. Hell if u do some research you could possibly make a profit since things are different prices on different servers.

This is what a FC member did when he learned about the dropping of the 0 at the end of 1.0 he sunk nearly all of his money into endgame mats and sold them in 2.0 he actually tripled the amount of money he had in 1.0 .
