ARR Gil Cap Reduction

[Rannie]

Actually Flower I tend to buy from the npc's alot (and it's not mats that I'm buying either actually i've only bought mats twice from an npc the rest is gear and arrows) sometimes for the hell of it a lot of times for the convience especially if I'm in the area where said things to sell so saying no one buys from npcs is not a good generalization because there are people who do.

That's not even it Rannie. Flower here thinks, like a few others, that the player-controlled market will remain unchanged when every player suddenly has 10% of the gil they used to and all forms of generating gil give only 10% of what they used to.

blah sorry I kinda just woke up and it's my day off lol not 100% awake yet *rubs eyes*

and Kiria no one is saying that won't happen but after people start under cutting them to sell their stuff that will cause people to lower their prices in the wards. kinda saying the same thing there but there are a lot of people who are thinking this way. Now for the taxes no clue honestly. Yoshi never said that there will be the taxes and he didn't say that there wasn't going to be. So I won't make any assumptions on that yet.

Noctis, at first, there will be people who will try and keep prices high due to them "losing all their money." They'll find out pretty quickly that it won't work, just like the people who put stuff up for insanely high prices now.

I truly hope the Auction House we're getting takes the tax up front like it did in XI. Shoot those people in the foot for trying to overcharge for crap when they're well aware that the value of 1 gil has been drastically lowered increased.

Sorry but I think you mean the value of the gil will be increased in 2.0 not lowered.

Oops! It's currently worthless. It'll be worth more in A Realm Reborn.

A New Hope!

Aren't you a little short for a storm trooper? (I've watched the whole original trilogy for Star Wars too damn much *sweat drops*)

If SE cut the 999.999.999 to 99.999.999 BEFORE they apply the 10% to all the accounts then someone with 999.999.999 goes to 9.999.999 (they keep 1% not 10%). I got no idea how many nice people that might hit, but i couldnt care less about the RMT who would be caught

Why in seven hells would they do that? Those aren't 2 separate processes. Everything related to gil is losing a digit, including the cap. Simple as that. They don't do 1 first and then the next.
