    They will make it back by building houses.

    This is great news as I hate having to spend money to deal white damage. It was also a deterrent for them when it came to implementing AA for ARC/BRD. Glad it's in now.

    As I said in the other thread about this, you lose arrows and gain furniture. Seems like a win for carpenters.

    This isn't to say ARCs wont use arrows and MSKs wont use bullets in ARR. You just won't have to buy/equip them.

    Not all games with guns require you to purchase ammunition. It's part of playing a virtual game to not have to worry about EVERY aspect of reality.
    This. And

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.
    * Design ideas:

    Assuming there's an actual market for it as we know nothing about housing. Will it increase house storage space? Is it just for looks? Will the materials be easy to get? Will it be plentiful? Can it even be placed around your house and visually show it? Will it all have unique graphics or will it just be stuff you find in cities? We don't know how much of a market there will be for it since we haven't seen it in action or even if it's similar to the Mog Houses from XI, which you did have a market on people who loved going all out on decorating that little box, we do know the lost of arrows is already a profit hit on people who leveled carpenter, that much is already 100% confirmed with this news.
