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

Look, OP is WAY of base... I've actually BEEN buying/selling Dawn Drops, constantly, and in two days straight of nothing BUT (not even stopping to kill atomos) buying/selling dawn drops, I've only gotten 7mil.

I'm looking forward to buying luxury land.

This is a good point that you make. I didn't even think about how much of a gil sink the free company lots are going to be, so alot of this money will probably be removed granted they dont fix this issue before then.

Or they could, you know, hotfix the prices of what dawn drops sell for.

This is introducing way too much money into the economy and as others have mentioned, prices for things such as weapons needed for the relic quest are skyrocketing. I hope SE is going to do something in addition to the lowering of the max gil cap. I don't want to see prices go all crazy like they did in FF11 back in the day.

Yes but the reason prices are skyrocketing isn't because people are buying and selling dawn drops. Its because no one is doing anything but the damn event so there is absolutely no supply of anything and demand is skyrocketing. There are only 5 avengers on the AH right now on Gungnir, and only one of them isn't melded. There are 6 sarngas. As for the other ones that still have a decent supply the price has stayed relatively the same. There is actually a Rampager up right now that is even cheaper than what they were selling for last week before the event.

I don't know about other servers, but if you can find me a relic prereq weapon that has a good supply of them available up for 50 mil then I will cave to your mentality that it is all the dawn drops fault.

Guess we'll just have to see if/when the event ends and if people start moving more weapons into the market. I know there are people on my server that play for great lengths at a time and will put in the time to milk this for what they can. They're also the type of people if they have the money at their disposal that they'll do every single relic they can before November 1st.
