I can sit down for an hour and make 20k gil. This is not other people's money, this is new money created when I finish a levequest. 20k gil is the right leve 6 times. So quick and easy it feels like cheating, but its not

    If you spent the time to get the right classes up to the level (which you may or may not already have) and spend just 1 hour a day making 20k gil, that's almost 150k (the leve reward varies, but 20k/6 leves is on the low end of the spectrum) a week. This is on top of anything else you may sell / DR bonuses / dailies / map rewards.....

    I could go on but the simple fact is there is literally TONS of ways to make new Gil in this game, and people just disregard it because they want MOAR NAO....

    I didn't mean to evade a point. But, that point is still proving mine. Every server can make the same amount of new gil. If every server can make the same amount of new gil, totally bypassing market boards, then every server should have the same housing prices.

    For me, it's not about how hard I have to work, it's about the fact that SE has decided that I need to work harder than everyone else.

    But different servers don't have different prices anymore! According to this land price calculator (which is accurate according to the people on multiple servers I've talked to), prices on the following servers are ALL IDENTICAL: (world group 3) Bahamut / Behemoth / Cactuar / Carbuncle / Chocobo / Diabolos / Fenrir / Garuda / Gilgamesh / Ifrit / Leviathan / Mandragora / Midgardsormr / Odin / Ramuh / Shiva / Siren / Tiamat / Titan / Tonberry / Ultros

    (world group 2: NA/EU Legacy) Balmung / Excalibur / Hyperion / Ragnarok / Sargatanas

    (world group 1: JP Legacy) Aegis / Durandal / Gungnir / Masamune / Ridill

    The only servers that have cheaper prices are as follows: (world group 5) Asura / Belias / Brynhildr / Famfrit / Lich / Mateus / Unicorn / Yojimbo / Zalera / Zeromus

    (world group 4) Adamantoise / Alexander / Anima / Atomos / Cerberus / Coeurl / Exodus / Faerie / Gobli / Hades / Ixion / Kujata / Lamia / Malboro / Moogle / Pandaemonium / Phoenix / Typhon / Ultima / Valefor


    So you DON'T need to work harder than everyone else. Or at least, over 50% of all servers have to work equally hard as you and the other 50% are smaller servers with way fewer people so their GDP is smaller, so having lower prices makes sense.

    A little off topic but which leves are you running? Are they combat or crafting leves? Thanks

    Culinarian. Level 40 Apple Juice leve in Limsa (Made by Apple in Coerthas). It takes such little amount of effort its ridiculous. One ingredient. Apples!! Gather them at level 41 botanist. So easy to HQ also.
