Repair system discussion

[Alhanelem]

you do realize that level 20 guild leves give out 4k - 8k and a level 50 can easily plow through several within minutes right? even if the repair cost is 5,000 gil a piece I'm still not in the negative because I have 99 leve attempts? 396,000 - 792,000 gil This doesn't even include the bonus gil for difficulty and speedy completion and if you take a break for a few days it will climb right back up to 99 leves why do you think the RMTs are doing Leves so much? The NPC repair cost has no effect on me there for giving me no more of an incentive to need a player character to give me 1 more measly percent.

If you want to specifically farm gil, sure, it's great. But gil is all you get. Right now I care much more about company seals because i need a ridiculus number of them- and that's where my 99 leve allowances are going. No amount of gil can buy me company seals.

If the NPC repair cost is having no effect on you then you're having a very boring gaming expereince doing nothing but leves all the time. Because it does affect me and even if it didn't significantly effect me, I still hate wasting gil needlessly. Why pay 50k to do something when you can pay 5k together with some dark matter that's probably coming out of your ears?
