Housing Woes

[MaybeOliverB]

If you honestly think the system is not working properly due to being able to relocate, you clearly haven't been around for a while or you just don't get it. Being able to transfer an FC house to someone else has been around ever since housing exists in this game and nothing's changed. You can still have 8 FC houses per account on top of 1 personal house. How is that supposed to hinder reselling plots in any given way?

You want a house? We've got over 600 available on Coeurl right now. There were a dozen mediums available when I did my census last week, including a couple that had bottomed out on price. You don't have to spend 12-24 hours of your life fighting to get a house. You just have to be where they are available in the first place. Somewhat like real life - you want to own a house instead of rent or you want a real job instead of unstable part time work? You move to where the houses and jobs are available.

Last time I checked Coeurl for census, (this was 3 days ago). There weren't 600. I'd have believed you if you said Goblin because that's actually the amount there.

Coming from someone who trolls and griefs people in Gilgamesh server and brag about how you own entire Ward, you are the one to talk.

I just did the census on the census on the 24th. Check the census thread. It might be a little lower now but not significantly so. We've been running 500-600 available houses pretty consistently since the wards were added at the start of the year since we're usually marked as a preferred world (lost the status for about 6 weeks then got it back). The number of available mediums can vary a lot though there's usually at least 3-4 open.

On the same server? I thought it was one personal and one fc per server.

The restriction on the amount of FC houses you can purchase on a single server lasted two weeks.

Oh, thanks. That's still a lot of work to rank one up to be able to buy a house.

Honestly its not. You can autosynth lvl 50 green items using items your retainers collected and turn them in to the gc and literally get an FC high enough to buy a house in a couple hrs, if that. If you have some lvl 50+ dungeon gears stocked up to turn in you can speed that up incredibly.

Hours? I've done it in two minutes lol.

Best way to go about this is this...when a plot opens up that you want buy a cheap small and then relocate to your desired plot. Or maybe have a small plot owned as you wait, that way you can bypass the timer with little to no risk of others beating you to it. That's what I did when I was looking to buy another house after losing the one I had after a 5 month break. Plot opened up in Shirogane so I went to take a look. When I decided I'd buy it, I went to Mist to buy a 1.4 million gil small. Then I went back to Shirogane and transferred instantly. You just have to be persistent and keep checking the wards. If you can't beat the relocaters by camping a plot, then beat them at their own game.

How am I trolling or even griefing other players. Please show me.
