The airship parts are trivial to manufacture as a wide majority of the mats can be bought from a vendor. In an FC that's willing to help, getting all of the GC seal mats aren't an issue either -- especially if people are looking for things to dump their FC seals on and already have 5 stacks of ventures.
    Pretty much this lol. Making 8x of each airship part has been pretty annoying but we have a lot of amazing members who have helped out with coke/ore donations. I have spent many weekends just working on airships. In return I've been able to give everyone a company set .

    Getting 8 FC houses took well over a year and a little luck (friends sold some low, inherited a FC when everyone quit ). Back when gardening was good gil I was saving all profit exclusively for houses and for many months goblet had free plots on my server so finding an empty one was never a challenge.

    The main benefit of having so many FC right now is that we can charge 8x Grade III wheels every 3 days. Then have someone FC hop and gather all the charged ones to bring over to the main FC. Doing this it is possible to keep up 2x Tier III buffs 24/7... if only there was exp tier III...

    I just... want to say two things about this.

    1. it sounds like way to much work to be worth the trouble, and
    2. I find it very, very, very rude to keep 8 houses when there is a constant lack of housing availability. Of course there is nothing preventing you from getting this many and you are not breaking any rules with it, but it remains incredibly inconsiderate.

    I don't think that's inconsiderate in the least. Why should he have to give up a house if it was inherited or simply purchased it when it was available?
    That's almost like saying Microsoft should release it's hold on the operating system market and release the source code for Windows because of the lack of competition. If anything, SE should be making more housing plots because of the demand, or charging a premium for getting your own instanced ward (hey, there's an idea).

    Off topic. Please take this to a new thread if you must continue.

    (Cluttering guides with off-topic rants is very rude too.)
