Economy Needs a Buff

Just pick gathering or mining. You pick up the basic materials for everything in the game. Then when you do crafting you'll have some of the materials you need. Supply and demand find out what people need and sell them that. You can gather 99 things in about 10 minutes at 100%. Easy 10k or more if you have the right items. All cloth materials logs crystals . If you like to kill things farm things that people need.

We should honestly push for EXP conversion to GIL @ max level, that would help push people to do dungeons/fates/levys @ max level for money

I like this idea.

Either that or have the XP roll over to another class (maybe with a penalty), right now its such a waste to do quests/leves at lvl 50.

So what your doing with that is still player to player trading, the only NEW money comming into the game is from new players. Old players cant get money from doing lvl 50 stuff since nothing pays well. So pretty much everyone is draining money from the new players and undercutting everyone to the point its not even worth it. Just to make some pocket change.

Its like you totaly ignored most of the posts here and stated the obvious, that we have said is not a working thing.

I know money going out of the game with taxes and repairs. With new players coming in now money coming in. With housing and Golden Saucer coming in new money should follow. A whole new group of people with PS4 coming next year. The problem now is everybody rushed to 50 and are broke. The games to easy and people don't need to buy crafted things like they did in FFXI. I hate to see it get even easier. If you want money now , its out there. Go get it why you can.

And what happens when we no longer have launch-levels of new players coming in?

Then you do level 50 leves to make money.

Would be nice if there actually was lvl 50 leve's. But the current highest is 45. And thats enough for a few repair bills then ur out again.

As money becomes scarce, prices on everything will simply go down and the economy will stabilize itself after a while again. In the event that is very unlikely to happen despite some doomsday naysayers would believe, even a complete collapse of the gil economy would simply turn the gil into NPC only services and players would start trading items for other items without gil (which the current AH cannot handle, but spamming chat channels will).
