Honestly the only time I'd ever be around for it is Monday night, so no biggie.
Wednesday I'm at work during the day when Gains is in the afternoon
Sunday, I'm not waking up before 9 to do Gain-EXP

How will the RMT ever figure out a way to get around a limit imposed per-character on making gil via Sparks & Accolades?

I really hope that they treat hallmarks from last month as “relic” upgrade like it should have been and let this month be alex hpb month for gallantry

It would take a pretty crazy number of accounts to even remotely approach what they did pre-patch with having only 2m per account per week. They are willing to make a lot of accounts, but even they don't have unlimited resources.

I welcome the change. And they obviously must have gotten the news, lol. I love RMT tears; tastes bomb diggity. Keep bringing on the DDOS atks. :)

And I've heard through the grapevine, but it's not only sparks/acc cap that RMT are pissed about. A huge swath of RMT were banned. Sure, stim check usage toward gil buying contributed to inflation, but it wasn't the sole factor.

Anyways, will continue to enjoy those tears, yum!

It does work but you need to be Japanese for it to work. Anyone see if they are complaining? I think a cap was the right answer, but maybe one dump per week was too low.

I never really used sparks for gil anyhow, just from time to time when I noticed I was capped.

I kind of dig this, now all those who bashed on crafters getting hosed because they could just spam sparks for gil can suck it.

You know, every time square does something really far out there it's never really surprising anymore. Low expectations and you're never let down etc. But one cap a week. That's a big oof.

I can't wait to see the normie reaction, the people that aren't up at 2am waiting for their fix.

My normie reaction is that I only ever spent sparks once a week on average anyways, gain exp was always too boring for me to do it more than a couple of time; there are other ways to make gil that don't make me fall asleep.

I laughed so hard when I saw the crazy nerf they put in place. I was expecting '1 cap per day' or something.

But hey, this SHOULD increase the value of our gil now that there will be much less supplied into the market!

Those hurt most from this: Returning players; RMT.

FTFY. Demand for gil will sky rocket. Gil will be earned slower, but the amount of gil required to sell per transaction will go down as well because it will be more valuable and gear will no doubt drop in price.

RMT just got more customers. They already had lots of accounts at disposal. If they find that logging in out of of multiple characters is too tiresome they’ll start merc’ing everything and not just constant aeonic clears and WOC. If merc’ing doesn’t work out they’ll do something else that’s more annoying than farming sparks.

It seems this decision would hurt Odyssey upgrades. If people use their 99999 Accolades on prize powders and it prevents you from getting more points after the initial 99999 then no one will be selling pops which means you’ll have to farm your own. However, to farm your own set let’s say you want Metamorph ring augmented. It’s 1500 a pop and lets say it takes 12 pops to get the nq ring. That’s 20/99. Since you can’t buy the 50 vines you have to keep farming so let’s say 30 more pops (it will be much higher than this) which is 65/99. Say you don’t get a +1 out of all that that’s another 10/99 so 75/99. Now you need 30000 to augment and can’t. You’d have to wait two weeks to upgrade an odyssey piece..

The frick are they thinking...

This right here. Part of reason I felt that 300k was a good spot.

not really, 16 characters per account, that's $15 extra + you still cap accolades in <2 gain xp's.

I think its just on purchasing items. I imagine you can still earn the currency and spend it on UNMs. You just can't buy Prize powders.

Ya it says "Exchange limit" which i'm assuming means its only limiting purchases from Vendors, sounds like everyone can still earn sparks/accolades without limit, and UNM pop cost should be unaffected. Maybe even unity augment initial cost wont be included as well.
