No Arrows in ARR?!

So that means bullets will likely also be 1 buy fits all if they ever implement a gun class, sad too since in most MMOs consumables are the general economy booster, because given leveling speed, making armor won't do much for anyone when you blow past levels.

Consumables are the cheapest and least profitable items in FFXIV, crafting items and materials are way more important for the economy than arrows.

And stop bitching about leveling speed, it will be different, you have no idea if it will be fast as it is now.

The millions I made on culinary says otherwise.

Finally. I dislike carry stacks of the same items taking up inventory space, so this works out good.

So...not ammo. Irrelevant information.

And yet people make good money on Cobalt Arrows. So...trying to twist something around, failed. Maybe it's just the larger servers where the consumable markets are profitable, since unlike SB related gear like Deerstalker caps and Coral Rings, people seem to be very willing to buy stacks of 5-7k food.

quite honestly I'm not angry with this. rather relieved that they're doing it... it's very rare in an ff game that you have to keep a ton of arrows on you and when they did have it like that it was more annoying than helpful imo. So I don't mind this at all

Food is an optional item to buff yourself. Ammo is required to play as an Archer/Bard. It only has a market because it HAD to have one. Food will remain just as important in A Realm Reborn, Archer just won't be an unnecessary gil sink.

I'm pretty sure the main reason they did this was the battle reform. Its more action oriented and ARC has ranged AA in ARR. So with ranged AA they expect people will hate not being able to control their arrows draining so fast.
