Thread: how to make 10mil+ gil a day (and its effect on 2.0?)

Just means they need to make gil sinks for the new players, like buying land (just put some safeguards to stop them from reselling or buying more than one) and all the stuff for building. I'm sure this alone will be expensive and something for new players to work towards and will be a privilege for older players to be able to afford off the hop. if they pay it to the NPC then the money effectively disappears. just a thought, if not then it just might be a huge issue for the economy and new players.

Also look at it this way... If we get MORE gil so gil is worth less...isn't that exactly the same as taking gil away so gil is worth more? When SE says they're reducing the gil volume by 90%, you shrug and say its no big deal because its just a shift in denomination. Well its the same for when gil inflates. This isn't the real world, this is a bubble. So inflation can never really ruin anything, because there's no alternate currency to base it on.

Or has an army of bots to follow you around like the RMT's do at cedarwood :P


Like in real life the problem would be the rich are getting richer then everyone else (the rate is disproportional). So at some point (or now you could argue) we have a problem. 1% has 90% issue.

Well everyone can still charge more for what they're selling. They can keep in mind that a lot of players have a lot more gil now, and therefore charge more.

How much is the Gil to American Dollar exchange rate these days?

I don't think most people are content with doing atomos 24/7. The majority of players going for relics are also interested in aquiring Darklight gear and other random things that won't be around much longer instead of capping gil. Besides, just because people can make the gil to buy a double melded weapon does not mean they will get the completed relic, lol...

Indeed. I've been spending mine on armor. I'm going to reduce the impact of the gil reduction to my own gil supply by holding onto as little gil as possible and embrace the new gil values in 2.0 with open arms. Afterall, 1/10 of 0 is 0. :P
