Could I Make Money Like This?

[Menchi]

If you were a real high lv character and someone needed help to get something like an avatar could you charge gil for your services?

[Darkani]

Yes you can, but you will never be able to solo an avatar^^

And dont forget that low lvl people dont have as much money as you will need.

[SephirothYuyX]

Actully..

A high lvl SMN or RDM could easily solo an avatar. (and has been done)

[FFXITsukasa]

I concur. They lowered the strength of the Avatar when the implimented the new low level quests making Avatars solo-able at higher levels.

charging for services makes you hated and in other people's eyes viewed as greedy and selfish.

I've seen a 75 RDM/WAR solo avatars (not Garuda or Fenrir though). It doesn't look like a cakewalk, but it surely was very impressive.

that's not true.. me and my friends do this everytime.. we're a group of mercenaries for hire... you want something done pay us enough and you get it done.

Greed? selfish? nope.. just a business.

Yeah, just like every service based company that charges for its service.

charging for avatars is pure greed, seeing how you can get 10k (part of the reward) for your efforts when you finish the quest.

Charging for those services are very different from the real world... people here they can benefit themselves by skilling up or steal items, etc, while people in the real world offer their services so they can live. You don't need that in this game, there's many other methods of earning money.

If you offer to get people items/coffer keys for 10k, i see it as you can solo those things by yourself and not require any other help. If you can't, don't charge, because there's other people there helping in the party without pay.

If people are willing to pay for you helping them, go ahead, but many people agree with my views. Here's something you can do out of niceness, but you're charging for it... If the person is willing to pay for your time, thats great. demanding it is greed.

After all, they can just ask another person and they'll most likely do it for free.

depends on your strategy

[Menchi]

Well either way you look at it it all boils down to whether they want to pay or do it themselves... They may even ask you to do it for free this is when you must decide which is more important the money or them not hating you... This depends on two things whether you have apathy and are uncompassionate or whether you are empathetic and compassionate... So its up to the user themselves to decide...

I payed 15k for help to get Paper. I also got a coffer key while I was there. I really don't see any problem with it.

Some people helped for free before but didn't get it. I didn't pay the person till I got the paper.

I see no problem for charging sometimes for services. *shrug*
