Vanity isn't just for the rich!

Here is a Lexus RC:



Here is a Nissan 370z:

Wow, you totally don't get it. The first car costs $50,000. Guess what? There are cars in the same class as that one that cost less than $20,000. The point being that there are RANGES. Not everything is 'elite.' Yet, in this game, pretty much all vanity (save for maybe one or two pieces?) requires you to be level 50 before you can craft it, or requires you to shell out quite a bit of gil (100,000+ is a lot of money for a low-level character, and for some who aren't low-level but don't have tons of time to play) if you want it. That'd be like needing to buy a suit but only being able to by Armani because no one else could make them.

Yes all vanity items should be a level 1 craft requiring no more than 100 gil, thanks.

It takes at most 10 days of casual leves and supply missions to reach level 50. This is easy for anyone to do.

Heaven forbid they'd do it like Rift did it.....

Have an NPC Marriage merchant sell it for a reasonable price....

SE... making it 100x harder than it has to be because..... reasons...

If they made crafters have the ability to craft gear on par with the current endgame levels then you can have your vanity gear at level 1 crafting for all I care. But since that will never be the case and the raider would cry foul of anyone being able to "buy" their way into endgame you'll just have to deal with that sweet vanity gear being gated behind high level crafting. People pay for vanity gear because it is special, so you can throw together interesting new looks. If everything was super easy to obtain and just handed to people why bother at all. Why not just have NPC's sell all the gear we'd ever want for 1gil each?

When things take actual effort to earn you tend to enjoy the spoils that much more.
