Am I the only crafter that enjoys world visit system?

[Sanghelios]

Tbh this has put me off crafting a bit. Want to sell an item? Better hop to every single server to see what the prices are, and periodically check every server for undercutters.

This is also the major reason for me to not like it. Someone who crafts a lot and usually has a lot of things on MB, can now spend almost their entire time server hopping to check/untercut prices. This new system is very flawed in this aspect and again, is just another band aid fix. Not like the game doesnt already got enough band aids. The proper way would have been a shared marketboard across the whole datacentre. But unfortunately the devs prefer to stick to their band aid politic.

I think it’s fun, it’s about time things started to become regulated price-wise. I would rather have to craft hundreds of gear for smaller profit and have it sell nonstop than craft 40 pieces of gear and have only 5 of it sell at 2 million a piece over the course of 5 days.

I think Square Enix did this to reward hardcore crafters for being hardcore, and reward not-so-hardcore crafters and/or greedy crafters the way they should be rewarded.

This is just my opinion, no fighting please. I won’t respond to negativity :P

Not at all.
I will finally be able to buy some ingredients at reasonable prices and craft myself some objects like the Flying Chair.
And Mogboard helps a lot! : D
By cons I do not try to make gils, I just love the craft, and I strongly tend to give what I do: D

It's the best thing to happen to the Marketplace economy in years.

Usually we'd have to wait for big patch days or actual Expansions to have healthy economy trade movement.

Sure it's going to take some extra work with pricing, but i can see some people using this as an opportunity to create some API's that monitor and report prices throughout datacenter markets

Ew, call me old fashioned, but I liked not having to alt-tab or whip out my phone to check marketboard prices.

I mean.... I don't mind it. I think people are over reacting on some fronts. Who really is going to go to every server to check prices all the time? I'm certainly not. If the item is already decently priced, I'm not going to scout out the best deal. If it's a very high ticket, expensive item? Yeah, maybe. But checking all worlds means you might just miss out in the end anyway because someone else bought it first while you were hopping around.

And I'm definitely not going to check each server every time I want to price something. I might check a universal board (unless those are somehow TOS then, uh.... I won't.... > o > ) but unless it's a super expensive item, there's just not enough reason to.

My only concern is bots, really. I think it makes it a lot easier for them to move cash around and do as they please. That being said, I was on a super small server, which was nice I GUESS for me as an omnicrafter but my god did it suck if I ever needed to buy something or heaven forbid I was feeling lazy and didn't want to make/gather it myself. I'd rather prices drop tbh but we'll see how it goes. But it is a bit of a mess. Shame they couldn't make it one board per DC...

The other annoyance is that everything is being bought out and resold for ridiculous prices atm. Time will tell how this settles but who knows.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that they did and it was infact what they wanted to do but there were technical issues with it. This is either a compromise or a mid-way point while they sort out the issues.

Yeah, they said that was the original plan but they couldn't do it. :/

World visit is up? Now do you do it. (And why would anyone bother to anyway.)?

1) Yes.

2) Main cities Aetheryte.

3) Uh, because they want to visit another server?

Now on topic, I am a little perplexed by people upset that it will standardize prices while at the same time also being upset that they have check the MB on multiple servers.

If prices are going to be standardized, then... all servers will be near the same price negating the need to look at any server other than your own.
