It's unfortunate though; it really is on a broad spectrum. Most people are now walking around in full GC gear, and whilst this raises the general equipment standard of the playerbase, like someone else mentioned, it directly hits sales of weapons, armour and accessories. The misinformed view that all GC gear is the best for each slot rises, people stop wanting to learn how to do their jobs in favour of following the masses in gear choices.

I've heard people on other linkshells brag about how they've made 100m+ on this event and it's actually quite sad. With that I saw a shift in attitude, almost a sense of superiority. Inflation is going to mean sellers raise prices as people who've amassed gil from Atomos will just throw money at whatever they want, and prices will keep rising.

I'm not against the event for the most part and I've gotten seals from it, which is nice. It's the rapid influx of gil that I really disagree with. Could have done it myself like some others posting here, but I'm not at all interested in amassing a huge pile of gil just because I can. To me, there are more important things in this game.

I really wish SE had thought the event through better before they implemented it.
