So I'm realizing that not only are things like the New World Set and the Cashmere Set literally disappearing from the Market Boards, but when they are there these pieces of gear are selling more than any of the new Stormblood glamour. I've discovered that there's two major reasons behind this: A) Most of these glamours have items that only drop in Aquapolis and B) Items like Fine Alumen which only comes from specific FC house voyages. While the obscurity of Aquapolis runs can and probably will be something that is fixed in a later patch, the utter lack of an alternate way to get Fine Alumen is it's own beast entirely, and because of it I suggest several fixes that could happen in order to prevent Aquapolis from being more popular than the new Lost Canals of Uznair.

Fixing Aquapolis:
  • Make the Master Thief's Map a Scrip vendor item or a Tome of Verity item
  • Make the items specific to Aquapolis available for purchase from GC seal vendors (20,000 seals per item)
  • Make the Master Thief Map purchasable from both GC seal and Hunt Vendors (100 Centurio Marks/5000 seals).

Fixing Airship Voyage Specific Items:
  • Have these items tied to a weekly mission drop from Adventurer Squadrons. Doing so will revive this old content and entice players who have not completed it to finally sit down and get it done.
  • Have these items drop in the Aquapolis if you fixed made the fix to make the Master Thief Map more available.
  • Make these items available through tomes of verity or scrips
