It is very sad to me every time I see people in this community bunch up and begin arguing about this shit in a manner that seems oddly similar to the political debates going on.

"I have money so you should have money and if you don't you're lazy and that's the only reason." Being a notable attitude going on here.

The issue is that some of the Job's weapons require Materia that is more expensive than the other Job's, and that is imbalanced.

I personally do not think Gil should have any real place anywhere in the Relic Weapon quest and that it should all be very difficult fighting achievements, but that is MY opinion. What is not opinion though, is that these quests should be balanced between the Jobs so that no one Job is much more or less expensive than the others in this regard.

Things like Archer/Bard being more expensive to play because you have to buy ammo, or another job being expensive because the type of food it uses VS another class are usually things you will find out early on while leveling or know ahead of time, but the fact that at 50 your Relic will magically cost more than someone else's is not something a newer player is likely to pick up off the bat, and it's unfair to subject them to / punish them for that down the road when they really had no idea (nor is it fair to expect them to know it ahead of time).

So please, quit turning this kind of thing into the "have and have not" argument where everyone WITH shit calls the ones without lazy and the people without who ARE lazy bitch that everything should be handed to them or whatever. It causes people like me who just want good design and balance to get chewed out by people who don't even listen to what I have to say and just ASSUME I want everything handed to me when in fact I want what they want, just not through BAD design.
