Crafters.. Is it supposed to be this hard to make money?

[Eye_Gore]

Not sure you want to do that. I'll tell you after I made my first billion 4 weeks into the game, I realized I didn't have anything to spend it on. I mean I didn't even buy any of my gear. So I decided to be a nice guy and tried selling the Gil to people, man did that not go over too well. I mean I thought 1 gil for 10 was a good deal, but people just sent me nasty tells and blacklisted me. So now I just light my campfire outside my mansion with Gil and cry myself to sleep.

First world problems.

I have over 13 mil gil and haven't crafted a single item for MB profit. I guess I can't help you either.

Hi.

Nobody cares.

I hit 100k...I thought I was doing well....

Making 63 million in three weeks? I'm genuinely curious what your secret is. I've been selling Platinum Circlets for 400k, but not many people actually want to buy them quickly enough to reach that kind of money.

all my frienda are RMT too, yet i only have 200k.

legacy ftw

I would imagine earning potential to be vastly different from one server to the next. Even if you have a virtual monopoly on something that's in high demand, the number of people with the desire to buy it and ability to do so at any particular price point is limited. I think with larger servers you have more earning potential but would also have to put in more effort for each gil you make due to there being more competition and undercutting. On a smaller server there isn't as much gil available to be spent, but with less people competing in the marketplace it's easier to get your hands on it.
