Problem: Items are Worthless

[Scarface]

Lol, foolish child. Simple words for you incoming. I have at least 4x the gil you have on my *toon*, not to mention what is on retainer, and ALTs. - There is a little epeen for you, only because I feel you may need to see the big picture...that you're a zero, a bagel, a donut....lol.

Moving on, crafting seems fine to me, make HQs if not you get the shaft. Just like XI was..seemed to work for me then as well.

Oh yeah, well I'm the king of Venus and have a rocket ship that can travel at twice the speed of light (Because screw YOU, Einstein). I can make dumb claims that I can't back up, too. I mean, I COULD talk about things that I can back up, like overall ratings on ffxivpro, but I wont' because I'm above that. That would just prove how much more awesome I am than you (If I'm nothing, I guess that makes you half nothing, huh?)

Well, I guess I'm not above that, afterall.

I probably shouldn't even be responding to an obvious troll post by a self important noob, but there you go. Won't be responding to any more, though! (Neener, Neener, Neener)

Yes you own me with your rank 50 Alch, and your rank 43 conjurer, lol.

I'm pretty sure anyone on Wutai can back up my statements.

P.S - Did I......you just kick yourself off your own thread? Now that's one for the record books. Level a battle job to 50 before you make "I own you" claims, and kick rocks.

Solipse grew as fat in town off other people's crafting mats as you got lucky with silver needles prior to the meganerf. Yall are both silly. One wants to mindlessly spam to the top of a LuShang pyramid scheme and make it perpetually October, and the other has a stockpile of 200 million rubles and would sell their own mother for things that depreciate by the minute.

Town crafters sure be chirpin'

[Scarface]

Nothing wrong with the way I operate, I guess you do it the right way eeh?

Oh, and I don't charge people for using my services, just don't abuse me with 20+ synths (Unless you're LS)

[moatcarp]

Please explain, in detail, why you think this system makes HQ materials worthless, exactly?

Because most NQ mats are next to worthless. All the DoL I know regularly NPC stacks and stacks and stacks of materials (even after giving away stacks and stacks for free to friends / ls-mates). Crab Bow is a weird example because I don't think you can harvest all the materials. LW is another example that doesn't fit the norm.

For most crafts NQ mats are completely free in huge quantities if you have anything resembling a social network in the game.

So your example doesn't hold for most the items in the game (maybe it does for crab bow because you have to farm some of the mats).

OK, one more response (mostly because I'm fairly certain the really super difficult interface of ffxivpro is beyond your ability to navigate, at this point), simply:

Solipse Ist - Overall Rank: 491
Scarface Champion - Overall Rank: 1,033

Nice try. You're still a newb. Keep posting, though.

That's not an objection to the point I made, though.

Right now you can buy a non HQ oak log for 2k. You can usually buy a +3 oak log for 20k. Right now HQ items are only 10, maybe 20x as much as a non HQ item. The balance point in the system that I proposed, costwise, was 50x. IE, HQ items will be worth between 2 and 5x as much compared to non HQ items as they are right now.

How is making them worth more compared to non HQ items making them worthless? :P

[Scarface]

You don't even have a 50 battle job, lol. I killed all the NMs first/second on the server, you probably think Dodore is a Toad NM. Yet I'm the noob. Love the irony in that.

[Solipse]

Haha. Figures you and Peregrine are in the same shell. Neither one of you does or ever will get it. How does the rest of that server tolerate you two whining prima donnas? I bet anything you're involved with is full of drama... glad I rolled on Figaro.

Save yourself a reply btw. Moved you to ignore. Chances are you will never have anything worthwhile to say anyway. You're nothin' special. U mad?
