Request desynthesis

[melflomil]

Just like there is a request meld option can we get a request desynthesis option. I don't see how a gatherer can get 10 field craft III materia.
One they are over price on my server they cost 400k each. It might be worse on other servers.

Two, if a person only like gather class why would they levels a crafting class?

We can just bring items or buy items to get desynthesized.

I think this would be a great idea.

you do realise that crafters need the gathered items to get the mats to make the goods to desynth for fieldcraft..!?

that being said its not a bad idea.

I think this is a bad idea, not only would it hurt the people that can desynth them now(why would they not want you to buy from them when they put the time into lvlin the desynth). But it also reiterates the point of why do something myself and work for it when i can just get it handed to me. Not trying to be rude if thats how it came off then w/e but i see so many people asking do this for me do that for me in this game that it gets kind of annoying.

Countless pieces of untradable gear fall into the hands fo players that don't really have any use for them except for converting them into Grand Company points. On a typical Expert Roulette run, what are the odds that one of the four participants has Armorer Desynth leveled high enough to convert those Sabatons of the Divine War that drop? Probably not high.

With Request Desynth, the recipient of those Sabatons has the option to seek out a crafter to desynth them for the chance of getting a valuable item to sell. The crafter's motivation could be skillups, a fee of some kind, or whatever. This would greatly increase the amount of Demimateria available on the marketboards. While it's true that this would also greatly devalue that Demimateria, I still see it as a positive thing. Right now, demimateria is just too scarce - pretty much ANY items involving recipes that include demimateria are priced like luxury items, even when they were clearly intended to be generally available.

Exactly, my character has 1.5 million gil. That is enough to buy 3 field craft materia their 3. This is only on my server. I'm pretty sure this goes for even more money on the less popular servers. What are the odds of getting one anyway?
As someone else said how about untradeable gear. I would love to get rid of my Ct gear.
