You didn't see stuff like that in other games. In WoW every time the cap went up everyone happily went after the new gear- there was never this super strong attachment to current gear that there was in XI.
This ^ very much so.. salvage peeps really got a sore butt that has lasted way more than it should have....my main was BLM in FFXI and for some reason ppl thought that if it had to do with BLM it had to be sold for 50mil so each update with upgraded gear was a loss and cost of millions.. did i bitch? Never i was happy that my job was going to pull bigger numbers
