Can we just remove shards from the game?

[Synestra]

Shards seem too expensive. A level 1 item should not be 40-50 per shard.

Whaat! D: On my server im not selling any shards less than 120gil each and that is usually the normal price for high-demand shards(like wind and lightning). But anyway have you tryed to use DoL specced retainers to go for some shard ventures? they should bring approx 200 shards in hour or so.
