Best way to solo farm gil now?
By Sockfoot 2018-01-28 12:25:11
Just came back to the game, need to make some gil to buy a lot of this nice crafted gear that is new to me. I can make ~1M/hr in Dyna as THF/00 (roughly 700 pieces), but I feel like there has to be a better way. I recall that spambuscade was great for making gil, but I need things that I can do solo while I don't have a group online to do that..
tldr; Is ~1M/hr income in dyna the best I can do (solo), or do you guys have a better suggestion for me?
Thanks^^

For the majority apart from crafting related items, the only stuff that sells in bulk are REM mats. So depends on server prices and how fast/lucky you are.

Ignoring the obvious "if someone has a way to make crazy gils they won't share it and shot themselves in the head", Hobo is right as only stuff selling fast enough to avoid stockpiling are RME mats. Personally I can't stand doing the same thing over and over so I'd alternate Dyna, Salvage and gain-exp for sparks dump. Also make sure to check the monthly campaigns as some of them, e.g. VW one, are quite profitable and can be easily done solo

Spark farming during gain exp deserve at least be considered.
Cleaving in good camps like ruaun and reisenjima (zitah seemed slower to me) can net in 20~30 mins half spark and capped accolade (provided youre in the last placed unity).
I sugest using Ashita plugin Bellhop (or something similar in windower) that has the option to sell every item for a given name. With that plugin, its viable to sell accolade as well. I already did myself, and if you prepare (have 70 free spaces in inventory) it takes 5 mins to buy all prize powder and sell using /sellall "prize powder". Doing that, we can talking about 3m/h (2 capped acc and 1 capped spark) without any hassle waiting someone to buy your stuff.

You won't get better than that sadly.

Get mules/Alts to increase Gil productivity in all things. So few things need Gil these days tho.

not hard to have 2 poeple just afk in the zone and spem it that way

As a side note you mention new crafted gear, I recommend doing some research before buying it. I am assuming you mean su2/3, not the abjuration gear, which can be quite mediocre or better way to phrase it is luxury gear not priority. Your reforged AF or general reisenjima gear will server you much better in the short and long term.
If you mean the abjuration gear then just ignore me.

Because even with a 70 free spaces that's 12 times grabbing stuff from npcs and then going to another to sell back and forth which is just a decent amount of npc interaction and running time even when close

Probably Bellhop can sell crazy fast or all in a single big packet to make it worth it.
[Edit] Fail math is fail. Forgot to divide by 10 accolade/item so it's 833 stacks and not 8k (thanks Madranta). Still a lot D:

I just meant the sheer volume and menus you have to go thru and running usually takes me a bit longer

Is there something equivalent to bellhpop for windower? sellnpc isn't nearly that fast.

It's 833 stacks for 99K Accolades, not 8300+. You must have forgot to divide by 10 for the Acc cost of each powder. 99,999 / 10 Acc per powder / 12 powder per stack = 833.325.
That being said, using SellNPC for this is still rather slow. It seem to sell at roughly 1 stack per 1.5 seconds which puts you at close to 21 minutes to sell all of that, plus time to run between the Unity NPC and a vendor (I used Bastok Markets). It took me about half an hour all told when I tried this today.

I use southern sandoria entrance unity npc and Corua thats just few steps aways. Its not that many menu interaction once you get used. I can garantee i can sell 99990 acc in ~5 mins in one char. (Obv if using additional mules that will just add to that time).
By Pantafernando 2018-01-30 03:16:54
Also im not telling thats the most efficient use of time but for new/returning players that have more time than gil, that option can be considered. As i use other accounts, that exchange becomes even more time consuming so i just grab the keys to not waste gain exp time talking to npc, but i do sell the remaining acc once its over.
And if you are really free on time, unity nm under lv99 seems to have a ratio of spark gained more than acc spent so in theory you can get more than a million spamming those but considering how they are cheap to pop you prob will take a huge amount of time in this.
Edit: and i just sell accolades because nothing is selling on my serve reliably so those time consuming but garanteed way to make cash becomes more attractive
