For those who don't know, during beta, SE made items progressively more expensive to repair as their durability goes down to 'encourage' people to repair frequently. Also, it might be wise to have a second set of lower ilvl gears for farm content while keeping your BiS in your closet till progression raids.

Farm what oh masterful one? Everything that is farmable sells for maybe 1-2gil. Crafting gives you items that vendor for maybe 20gil...The actual damage to your gear from gathering materials and crafting will cost more than what you could make.

Crafting and selling to other people does not generate gil to the server... You might gain gil that someone else earned while leveling, but that gil will dry up within 1 month once everyone is 50. I personally have 500k due to crafting, but what happens when no one has gil to buy my crafts? They can't earn more, and I sure as hell am not going to buy stuff I can farm.

The next patch needs to address the economy before it fails. And it will fail in its current state.

Generally, I complete about 10 to 20 fates an hour using a well refined system of knowing what the good ones are and how often they pop and having all the maps explored. And at this level they generally yield 230 seals for a gold medal reward. Meaning I net between 2300 and 4600 GC seals. And that's just a low average, Sometimes I get lucky and get on behemoth (despite not being 50) and catch svara and all the good fates at the right times and do way better than that (double even). So at 2300 to 4600 seals that would be between 1.8 and 3.68 Gold Pieces per hour (and again that's a low estimate). So 4500 to 9200 gil an hour (low esitmate) if we could use seals to buy gold pieces on the numbers I previously stated.

And last night I ran fates for like 7 hours and was still over 80% on all my gear.

No way you had 80% on your gear after 7 hours of farming fates lol. One DD pretty much breaks all of your gear that is why ppl do it naked or in very low level gear. My gear is <20% in an hour of farming fates

Bring back dark matter for gatherers, bring back request for repairs - problem solved.

If leveling newbies have all the gil ... why dont you all sell to them? I sure as hell gave up crafting for now since its taking so long to do along with my combat class. I myself (at level 32ish) have a lot of gil to spare to buy weapon and armor upgrades and really having a hard time keeping up my carpentry ... and thats just for Bow upgrades.

I get that once everyone is on their 2nd and 3rd+ class that there will be much more gil leaving than coming in (if things stay as they are) but for now, with all the players questing ... there should be plenty in the economy to go around.

Its fine, this is how stuff gets done. When more and more people start to voice out that whats current isn't working efficiently, then it brings more and more attention to the problems at hand. Some people just go a bit overboard with voicing it. ;p
