They should make retainers do something else besides bot gather.
I don't see a issue with a retainer farming items that you wont much any money one. Once again i guess you not reading or understand HQ are what sell a Retainer i bet you anything would farm random item the chance of you getting enough HQ to make profit in a month with a retainer would be low. So stop trying to mess thing up for casual players with this system they can make gil to pay for things they need. Hell it be a great system for myself i be farming HQ item while my npc farm w/e and make me junk gil to buy Food and other item i need for raid nights.

@Celia You could always sell it for a npc and remember there a limit how many leves you could do a night. Casual players would take any gil let's say the NPC bring a income of 50k a month that more then they would have to start with. Casual players only play what 2-4 hours 2-7 days a week?

I don't see the harm it this system making low amount of gil for everyone. I think SE just adding everything they could from other games to make every type of player happy. i could be wrong with all this but i'm sure SE make it good enough that it would mess anything up to the point that RMT can shit load of money off it.
