Crafting Economy Update Request

[Valkyrie_Lenneth]

Like it or not, gil is mandatory for many activities. Many mounts cost gil, houses cost gil, teleportation cost gil, gear costs gil, raiding costs gill, etc. There are ways around it but for most people gil is necessary. This wouldn't be the most efficient way of making it so why do you think it's a bad idea?

Because it generates gil from nothing. The player driven economy takes gil from other players and doesn't create new gil.

What this would do is drive costs through the roof for market board items, as gil is created from nothing when items are npcs.


It already generates too much. I've gained something like 40 mil in the last year doing nothing but play the game. No market board selling. I have 140 mil and nothing to spend it on because the housing lottery is terrible, teleports cost me nothing because of farmable aetheryte tickets, the gil mounts are hideous, and I can make my own crafted gear when I need to.
