    Suggestion: To add the NLC potion NPC to the free market

    Pros:
    To give players easier / faster access re-fill potions (particularly the % MP / HP ones) without treading all the way to NLC, without having to buy in bulk (save inventory space), and without having to drop stacks of potions to mules / friends.

    Con #1:
    Less people will buy TP rock / travel tickets (which are used as meso sinks to stabilize economy)

    Solution to con #1: Charge a slightly higher price for the potions sold in FM - where people would have pay a 5% premium on potions sold in FM for the "convenience factor".​

    Con #2: Too many NPCs in FM, crowds the space

    Solution to con #2: Could we just add the most commonly used % HP/MP potions (unique to NLC, not found elsewhere) to Albert the item seller? Again, at a premium price if need be.​

    Just adding a few commonly used potions to Albert the Seller would work fine too. I didn’t intend to change the status quo on star recharge / star prices.

    I think it's fine as is. Having variance between potions and area is sort of the essence of the game

    Are the potions from other sellers not good? CBD has decently priced hp potions from what I remember, chicken rice or satay. Leafre sells reindeer milk which heals a whopping 5000hp. Maybe because you guys have higher hp and will need stronger potions.

    This suggestion feels like its one step away from asking for magic rocks and summon stones in fm. I don't like the idea of over customizing iconic things like nlc potions and stripping them from their place cause they are meta potions, for minor convinces.
    The fm npc was made as a meso sink equivalent for nx items that are sold in the CS, not as a one stop shop that has it all. Why would anybody use any other npc other than the one in fm after 4th job if this change will be made?

    Fm npc should be like vendors in high attraction sites like sports stadium or Disney world. Charge 50-100% more for the same stuff.

    Hello everyone, we have no plans to implement a potion seller in the FM at this time. Thank you for everyone's input :)
