Yeah, kinda paradoxical this, as surely I dont feel like worth paying 500k per any abyssea item but also I certainly dont feel 500k (today) worth moving my butt there to farm it to someone else.
I guess its has its value just for being there afterall, having options is important.
Just should suck in case there are people who farm it for themselves competing for drops with someone more used to farm it instead some lazy costumer that just want that item because he has a big wallet, that without a merc, wouldnt bother going to abyssea at all.
