Would consider applying for this if I wasn't already leading my own linkshell! Nice thing you're doing for your server~ ;P

You're very welcome!

On that note, we are now accepting 2 or 3 members for our August 12th-13th Aeonic round. Please refer to the OP if unfamiliar with our offer. Small change to the OP; GEO is a welcomed job. Idris not required, but capped skills and Dunna is.

I just restarted after a few months' vacation, and this tempts me to server jump to Odin (not because of free aeonic) because this kind of attitude is lost to the vast majority of players. People on Bahamut are charging /fifty frigging mil/ for one single mob (Albumen) and frankly that's ridiculous.

Kudos, man.

Let's not start bashing those who charge gil plz. The amount of work behind building an aeonic group and getting required gears, vorseals and super revit access for everyone to kill albumen efficiently is way beyond 50m price tag, and 50m isn't a lot of profit when you split with your Alliance.

Just because Bill Gates donates a lot of money to charity doesn't mean it's wrong for others to charge money to work for others.

I have required gear, vorseals, and super revit access (at least for BLM). Alas, for some reason nobody will take me. It's not because I'm an ***, either (at least I don't think so). It could be the fact that I quit for three months.

I'm not decrying merc services; to do so would be hypocritical because I've taken gil a few times for various things.

I'm decrying the price.

I realize the work that goes into making your character effective in such content. I've done it. I've cleared every HELM but this one on various jobs (BLM, WHM, COR, RUN, GEO) so I'm very aware.

Those skills don't just help a potential client. They ultimately help you too. Personal gain is fine, but a price like 50m for a single (annoying af) mob is, to me, preposterous.

No, it's not my place to call people out (and I haven't mentioned a single name in this thread) but I have every right to state my opinion, and I think I've done it relatively respectfully.

tl;dr it's overcharging because you'd do it anyway for yourself

It's really not though. Adding another body adds difficulty to the fight and people mercing can't make the assumption that you'll be useful. HELM fights are difficult enough that experienced groups still wipe to them. I don't think you realize how much suffering most of them had to go through to get to the point where they can offer merc services. That's what you're paying for.

Say if you go with an ally with 10 people, 50m a run is only 5m profit per person. Now if you add the gather time(trust me it's often 30 min+), fight time which is close to 30 min, it's only 5m per hr of profit for one character.

That's assuming the group is good enough to get 100% win rate. For newer groups that may fail this NM, the profit is even lower than 5m per hr just because it's going to take longer for that win.

Note that I have made 6m per hour mercing much, much easier NM that I can solo with 1 char. By comparison a T4 that requires an ally, and much higher pt coordination shouldn't make less, but with 50m price tag it does make same amount of gil as soloable NMs per character.

Saying gearing up a job for HELM "ultimately help you" isn't exactly correct in the case of mandy, because brd isn't exactly used anywhere else except HELM. And some people invested gil on it just for HELM.

Also just to echo what Snaps said, I have tried to let buyers contribute to some fight that they need gears from, almost everytime it doesn't end well because they *** up somewhere on something. I ended up making way less money per hr because of that. So yeah getting new ppl to pt is not as easy as you think.

There are tons of aeonic groups out there on various servers are struggling to recruit a good blm, run and whm. If you are as good as you claim I'm pretty sure one group out there would be dying to recruit you.

Can we please move this kind of discussion elsewhere and simply allow this thread to exist for its original purpose? Everybody has their own opinion on merc groups, but debating that here is a disservice to this kind of generosity.

Are you going to be doing any more runs in the foreseeable future? I'd easily transfer for something like this.

We actually were not going to be taking any extras our next round because we were going to have a little bit of fun (or try to) and try killing some HELMs with melee and did not want to potentially waste anyone's time.

Well, if you ever do a free run again, I have a 2100 COR and, most likely, 2100 GEO and BLM that I'd love to join on.

This is relevant to my interests, I'd actually like to join you guys if all possible, me and my friends just came back to Odin, and my BLU's pimpin' (dual afterglow, all sorts of augmented herc, NQ abjurations, etc.) I can hit enough ACC to hit maju, etc. I also have master COR, and 1400 RUN =3 (didn't get job mastery on RUN yet lol).
