The DAT file format was altered in a way that breaks my reader tool. It will require some work to get it fixed. Not a job for tonight, so we are SOL for now.

Thank you to Tako AKA Takutu AKA Project for helping me out today. Wiki all updated.

What's the backstory behind this, seems random

Quote:
The price of Beehive Chips sold by the NPCs listed below will be increased from 40 gil to 50 gil.
Odoba: Bastok Mines (K-6) / Green Thumb Moogle: Mog Garden

Were RMT buying for 40G and reselling these for 41-49g per w/ max fame and printing infinite gil?

The Windurst quest for them rewards 150 gil so I guess you made a profit of 30 gil and I guess people realized that with it as Vana'bout objective.

Yes. Can't have people making nearly 10k gil for turning in a full inventory of beehive chips.

SE in their infinite wisdom allow NPC sale interactions from anywhere in a zone with no server side checks on proximity. Meaning it's easily automate-able.

The RMT aren't doing things manually.

I'd imagine SE looks at infinite gil mechanics the same way your average homeowner would look at finding a single termite inside their wood-frame house.

It's not about the damage one can do.

One would think any time they add a new merchant that sells ANYTHING they would first check to see if any quests take the item being sold, and check how much gil is obtained from said quest.

But we all know it's the 5th string programming this *** game at this point.

What the *** is the point of incrementally increasing the points for trusts by 10 at a time?
It's such an insignificant increase.

I've been away for a few years, came back in June.

Looking forward to clearing VW and Abyssea on my alts.

Questions:
1. "Increased Seal and Crest Drop Rate Campaign" - is that REM chapters or something else?

2. "Additional Seal Battlefield Spoils Campaign
For the duration of the campaign, vanquishing specific monsters in the battlefields below will reward you with a variety of items, including materials needed to craft +2 empyrean equipment, Mog Bonanza kupons, Dynamis currency, and valuable synthesis materials. Additionally, Shemo in Port Jeuno (H-8) will exchange seals and crests at a reduced rate of 2:1." - which ones, all of them?

Seals are what you trade to Shami for Orbs to run BCNMs. While this campaign is active you get a lot more of these drops for killing things.

Yes, if you run these 10,000 times you have a chance to get a bonanza kupon >.>

They are deathly afraid of breaking the game by making any big changes.

1-Because *** you
2-More likely AI vibe code related. Lets be honest, the skeleton crew isnt spending time rebuilding the entire DAT structure.

Sapience orb used to give enmity +2 and fast cast +2. It now gives Occ. prevents TP consumption... ? Atleast that's what the ingame item description says.
