    Inflation!!!! Wtf!!!!!

    Indeed. My own strategy to protect against inflation has been to keep my "spending gil" in the form of easily liquifiable items: gold beastcoins, gold ingots, platinum ingots; because I know that those will at a minimum track inflation and possibly beat it. I also try to keep any decent armor...

    Inflation!!!! Wtf!!!!!

    I have said it before and I'll say it again: there are only two strategies that can successfully be employed to control the (currently out-of-control) economy in this game: 1) Make items available from vendors. This puts a cap on the price of an item. Very few people will pay more at the...

    FFXI, The Anti-Gil

    Actually, to combat inflation/cap prices, is offer the item FOR SALE from an NPC at whatever they want the max price to be. This is already the case for some items. Example: Scroll of Dispel will not sell on auction for much more than 70k because with high Rabao fame you can buy it there...

    why not just ask nicely before making accusations?

    Tonight, I decided to go down to Norg to trade in some rusty subligars and rusty leggings. But before I left Khazam I thought I would run out and bust up a few smithys for grins & to see if they would drop some gobbie armor, and maybe help out some low-levels by thinning the gobbie herd. So I...

    Sneak and Invis. Simple? you would think so......

    I usually stay away from posting on the flameboard, but here I am posting twice tonight... This topic is related to my pet peeve. I do not mind sneak/invis'ing PT members when it is safe to do so. But I am another mage that doesn't leave the house without 6hrs of food, a stack of echo drops...
