The new rettainer drop rates are bad for crafting

[Angelhearth]

As I have several characters with 9 retainers each, doing quick explorations, I notice that a lot of the stuff I get seems to have a very high drop rate. No problem with that, unless it's stuff that crafters also try to sell. Take a look at Grade 3 Picture Frame, an item that used to sell for well over 100,000 gil. At my server it now sells at 35,000 gil. This is a very difficult item to make (many components) and is definitely worth a price of well over 100k. This is not the only item I see with such a terrible drop in price. I seriously think that nothing that can be made by crafters should be dropped by retainers, crafters have a bad enough time as it is with all the bots that are already at the market board. Let the retainers drop general-purpose dye, hard to get raw materials, and green/blue stuff that can't be traded (for ventures). I also have gotten 3 neo-Ishgardian pieces so far, which is completely insane.
