    I welcome the potential balancing of the markets. I've been on both Balmung and Coeurl - one is a buyer's market, the other a seller's market. My dream for the market would be for all servers to eventually be linked directly, without the need for an actual visit. The initial transition may be interesting while both sides adjust, but it will balance out.

    I'd also like to see the city tax removed. What exactly is the point of that anyway? Seems a bit antiquated at this point.

    Can't wait for a data-center linked market board, honestly. Would make things way easier.

    I imagine they will be making the market boards data center wide in the future and this is just the first step, so things don't explode fantastically on their side and on ours lol.

    I know it wouldn't be perfect but I wish I could sell to an NPC at that point that will build a sell and buy price based on a few factors including quantity and demand of the item. So I can not think about undercutting. I just want it to sell fairly, I don't care to price gouge anyone and I don't care for checking the board every so often because people 1 gil undercut it all the time lol. As a data center wide market board might have a lot of wondrous undercutting potential xD.

    It's a gil sink like repair/teleport costs but this one is also dynamic (% based), which makes it helpful. Although also annoying to us who have to pay the tax, who likes paying taxes? lol.

    It's just a straight up gil sink. That's all.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    Agreed. I mean either completely separate, which we no longer have and unlikely to go back to, or completely merged.
