[Masekase_Hurricane]

I refer you to Godwin's Law, and suggest you never make that comparison again.

lmao I never even knew that existed

my girlfriend and I were talking about this suggestion and how stupid it is and we listed off the uses for grand company seals that we could think of from lvl1-60. The list is as follows:
1) rank up in the grand company
2) get cheap lvling gear cause you dont want to craft it yourself or are broke
3) crafting mats
4) chocobo
5) barding
6) stat reset cause you done flubbed up
7) squadrons
8) fc points
9) rank up fc
10) anima stuff
11) gc themed housing items
12) an fc room (goes along with the gc rank)
13) fc to gc affinity

im sure there is more that we didn't think of, but you get the idea. and this is just for trading in gear for seals.

Are you sure? I would of thought the same until I read this and seen all the math etc. lol I think he went on for about 22 pages out of 33 producing stats,tables and other crap useful stuff .

A thorough, well prepared troll is still a troll. At the end of the day the OP has produced a terrible idea that is horribly received by the community, and rightly so.

I took a break from the forums for a couple days (computer needed upgrading) and I come back and see this post -.-. I just have one question Cordie: you seem to act as though there is some other fantastic way to get GC seals that the rest of us do not know about. It would be cool if you would elaborate on that seeing as though I'm heavily dependent on moonstones for crystal sand for my relic right now.

I'll also say that honestly people do not need to "refute" your opinion on this matter. The fact is that if you aren't playing as the class that you want the gear for then you are a bad planner. I leveled a monk to 60. When I want the ilvl 245 MNK gear for my MNK from the current EX Roulette I do not queue up as my SMN I queue up as...my MNK. If I magically get into a dungie where the other dps is also a MNK I don't fret if he rolls a higher need than me. Obviously he NEEEEEEDS it for something and whatever he needs it for is no less important than for what I need it for.

Are we trying to set a Guinness World Record for most idiotic posts in some period of time or something?

LOL! You sir, just made my day.

Let's take a quick look, we recently have a thread that:

1. declare that using macro for battle is the better way to play the game and naysayers are simply bad at it
2. slander SE for plagiarism in Stormblood because the roe NPC looks like the panda in WoW (I think the OP of that thread got banned from the forum)
3. some weird obsession between the instances cleared to commendation ratio

and probably a couple more odd threads here and there... yeah, FFXIV might be getting a new record lol.

Back on topic, OP, nope.

The use of gear loot for the DoM/DoW class/job a player is playing is either:

• equipping it, or
• using it for glamour

All other cases of using gear loot (Grand Company expert delivery, desynthesis, selling, discarding) are not specific to any DoM/DoW job/class. Therefore, providing the same "Need" option for these cases is not justified.

Excuse me but who are you to decide what piece of gears are used for lol. This is the reason why your suggestion is a failure. Also you're wrong. Desynthesis for example actually IS specific to DoM/DoW since you need to desyn items under certain DoH category that can only be rolled by certain jobs. And like I say in the other thread, people give different values to items. If I were farming seals, desynthesis or glamour, what would make your stat gear farming more valuable than mine? therefore each queue in respective jobs for their respective drops. Otherwise, you should say bye bye to queue timers and sit forever in it.
