    Currency sinks

    Ever since 4.0 launched, we've needed currency sinks.
    All the gear from HW dungeons has been GC seals only. I have more ventures than I can possible spend in the next 6 months, because there isn't really anything else worthwhile to use them on. The ARR crafting market (raw mats via GC vendors and crafted items) has crashed hard.

    Then we get to verity. Same deal. You can use them to gear your 70 jobs as a bridge to 320-340 gear, but it's not really required. There is literally NOTHING else to spend them on besides crafting materials. And it's no wonder the market is constantly flooded, driving the price down to barely above vendor levels.

    Centurio seals are becoming a borderline useless currency. The cap is way too low for what you can use them for. The materia 6 market has settled from the insanity at SB launch, but continuing without some other kind of sink or outlet will only tank the market. Between cenurios and leveling roulette clusters, more materia are farmed than are being spent, causing a glut in supply.

    It just wasn't well thought out at all, and SE has had too many expansions and patches to not see this coming.
