I don't know what the prices are on Spriggan but on Cactuar, it's actually better to craft the mats for the i450 gear than the gear itself. In four years, I've never once seen any of the crafted sets drop below six digits except maybe the last few weeks of an odd numbered patch. Unfortunately, Shadowbringers made crafting into a complete joke which caused the markets to become comically oversaturated. What's so frustrating about this is it removes any real endgame for crafters. The highest level crafts are worthless passed the first couple weeks. That leaves consumables—which have serious bot problems—and older stuff that I don't even need to be level 80 for. Let alone have good gear.

There's a good reason Ashe, one of FFXIV's best known crafters, called his Shadowbringer macro: "CraftingIsDead"
