ARR Gil Cap Reduction

[Kestiel]

I hope this is wrong only because some people are going to find an exploit. They will either spend all of their gil on materia and re-sell it early on in ARR before the prices go down 90% or spend all of their money on something that they can NPC to make back a big part of their losses.

That'd work if prices would still be insane afterwards, which only an incredibly ignorant person would put up the prices as they were. Additionally investing anything in any item pre-ARR is a harsh risk that is unlike to pay out (better/newer items, less desire for that etc.) And NPCs are being adjusted so that prices reflect the gil they want in the system with new caps. Buying something now to NPC later is likely going to give a lot less of a payout.

I'm going to invest all my gil in cotton cloth. Half the server will be levelling Arcanist when the server goes live and they'll need gear.

This thread is full of pointless.

if you have over 100 items in your inventory, the excess gets placed onto the NPCs that handle the transfer of items from one version to the next, wouldn't logic suggest that gil will be the same?

Not if the new cap is 99m, it'd completely ruin the point of combating inflation too. Everybody would have the same exact gil, nothing would really battle inflation, sans anything selling for over 100m. Logic would dictate that they wouldn't do that because it doesn't fix or even attempt to fix anything. You'd just go to that NPC whenever you went under 99m and withdraw more until whenever the NPC disappears I guess.

It has no sense to let players stay with 99 millions with them (even if they had 999m) because they are reducing the prices of everything by 1 digit, so, they have to do the same to the players. Just think about it, If they reduce all the prices by 1 digit, because they are making money more difficult to get (probably) and want millions matter more and they also want new and old players to be balanced, it is obvious that they have to reduce the amount of money old players have 1/10. if they don't do so, it would mean that old players would be able to get everything cheaper and easily in comparison with new players, and items made by players would still be way too expensive. I don't think they are gonna do that...
