Gil ? : FFXI General Discussions

Ok per hour what is the most Gil you can make. Please feel free to share any and all hints. We are all one Happy Family.

As for me.


I know how to make about 2,500,000 gil in about 2 weeks. It only takes 1 hr or less but over a 2 week period I can problaly push that to about 7.5M gil if I use the mules for about the same time maybe 30 more mins at most.
**No I cant tell you what I do but it should be Easy to guess. AH times not included so it depends on that too**


The other method I have gives me about 20k per hour. Minus 10k plus 20K. It varies. Usually is about 20k or more. The only problem with this one is that its very annoying. Also you always have the few Cheapstakes out thier.
This one should be easy to guest too. Though Lvling White can be a Pain sometimes. Why the !@#$%^&* is Erase 500k. Bunch of greedy bastards.

Right I am poor. Only 77k or less.

before the new update... i made about 30k per hour... after.. i make about 300-600k depending on how much Red Moko grass i can harvest sells like hot cakes too!

you ask for hits yet do not say how you make your gil. others posting how to do it will just get alot more people to try it saturating the market and knowing peoples greedyness for fastest sales they will undercut untill the item prety much dies.

1st one is Gardening. I taught it was obvious so I didnt say what it was it was meant as a joke .

Any way the recipes is depent on the AH Prices in your server so You have to do some reseach for the item that is best to grow in your server. Also you need to look at the theories about Gardening which can easily be found on the internet. Unless you want to grow junk. Good items take 14 real days. That is why I cant say what I do. Because if you want to Grow its easy all you have to do is a little research and it takes a few gil about 10k to 500k to get started. Their are pages and pages on Gardening which I refuse to copy. Go to allkazham or misterytour or Yahoo type ffxi Gardening and search it.

2nd should be obvious. Teleporting service.
White Teleporting get it lol.

If you dont want to share you dont have to. Feel Free does not mean you Must.

I hope that clears that and yes if you can share what you do would be greatly appreciated.

I have not done Gardening in about 6 months so I would have to look. Ice and Fire Ore are always good and sell for about 250k or use to. 250k * 10 pots = 2.5M. I have 3 mules so 2.5M *3= 7.5M. I dont remeber the pot or the seed but its one of the most espensive seeds same with the pots. Ull also need the good pots and be able to log in everyday for 14 days to check on them. WHich can be done from Any Mog house does not have to be your nation. DONT GROW more than 10 unless you want Junk and Read before you start allot of rules the require time and patience. ALso like in everything in FF11 their is always a chance that you will fail.

For those who do not have the patience to garden (like myself), what i like to do is (being a melee lfg usually mean i have a lot of free time) go to rolanberry fields or battalia downs and just farm endlessly till i get a pt invite. rolanberry fields for gobs etc to steal silver beastcoins, tree cuttings off the gobbues, honey and chips off bees, and silk threads off the crawlers while in BD, you can steal silverbeast coins, and blk tiger fangs and hides.

i don't make mils, i do make about 50k an hour (+/- 20k). not too bad while waiting for a pt invite if i don't feel like forming a pt.

Lilfisher, it doesn't saturate the market... cuz i hardly see people harvesting in the first place... even after this update.... the price is still high for red moko grass products.. and i'm still making gil.. so anywho... i also farm the Silver beasty coins... along with yag necklaces and wind clusters... cuz i can HQ them into a stack per necklace... then i just craft into HQ items that i know i can make... IE Kenpogi +1 and Cape +1 ~

Best way to make gil is to have a 75 job.

I made 200k in 45 min total(including the walk) getting 2 coffer keys in eldemine

They didn't even have to fight, I just made them hit the switch for me than go hide somewhere safe. 75mnk/nin powah.

The good money I make is in den of rancor. Let me say that FEW people can do what I do cause of my job and play style. Even if you also had a 75mnk/nin you might lack the merit points/equipment/skill to pull this off. I basically run around there and kill everything. I get lots of KS (seems like you get more in beastmen controlled areas). I get lots of conquest points. I get coffer keys which can be traded for astral rings. I have like 65 clothcraft, I could probably do something with the 500000000 tonberry coats I toss

I don't know why I'm so good for it. I've had beastmaster, ninja, and summoner friends go down there just to die

The astral rings are not good by themselves(in fact, if that was all I got, it wouldn't be worth the trouble).. whats great is I can trade 99 kindred seals in for potentialy 15 million gil. Last KS99 run I did I made 4mil. I never get lucky and get kreisgsbell on my orb :/

Not to mention that.. being in a HNMLS I can have my linkshell kill anything that drops anything I want so I don't even really need gil.

In the grand scheme of things.. most items you will want end game are rare|ex so..

The downside is.. being 75 is expensive. Your LS will expect you to sneak/invis yourself. My oil/powder budget can litertly be over 100k/day sometimes. Food is expensive. You have to pay 3k+ for choco cause no one is going to wait for you to walk. Regional Teleport Fees, Echo drops, Hi potions, Antidotes, Holy Water, Icarus Wings, Shihei.

When it comes to making gil.

1) Don't count gil/hour ever.
2) Count fun/hour.
3) Look for something that only you can do best.
4) Multitask.
5) Crafting is not good money.

When it comes to point 5, thats not entirely true. Crafting is a GOLD MINE (to farmers). Go to allakhazam and download a few guides for crafts. Let me describe the process.

1) Newbie reads about how great crafting is on allakhazam.
2) Newbie goes to a RMT site and buys 10 million gil.
3) Newbie pays waaaaaaaaaaaay too much for raw materials.
4) Newbie ends up with a moderly high craft and complains that he can't make gil.

Here is where I step in.

1) Pro reads about how great crating is on allakham.
2) Pro researches items someone would need that wanted to powerlevel various crafts.
3) Pro puts items up for sale at ridicious prices on AH. They sell for some odd reason.
4) Pro ends up with a lot of money and posts about how great crafting is on allakhzam.

This is how I made all my money prior to 75....

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooo!!!!
What have you done! You've gone and revealed the best kept secret in the world!

Yeah dun worry asl, that doesn't help too many people i assume because it doesn't help me a bit. Newho, yeah my money makin all relies on how fast spook is killed and how many people r campin. I rape spook in the first and 3rd pop w/ my XU bot, for the second op however i gotta switch to my ps2 to spam voke cause its much faster.

Ahhhhhhhhhh

No wonder Silver ore went from 300 to 600 gil and the Fire Crystals.
I had to stop since I wait till I steal enough Silver to lvl my Goldsmithing.
Not to mention most of the other Ore's too.

bleach

Thanks for the info and what you have said is very true. Thier are ways to go around the price hikes but most people dont know about them farming everything being #1. The Other is going to the guilds. Doing this does help to make Gil. Ex Goldsmithing. I was making even when I was buying everything in the guild and then I decided to steal for silver or farm it helps allot. Allot more profit.

I have been feeling Suicidal though and I am thinking of Minning in Ifrit. With my white X.X!

mining in ifrit's ???
that is suicidal, however the amount of money gained is greater than the amount of exp lost (if you do it right) WHM w/ reraise can make it farther than most....
i think i'll plan a few mining trips

Yeah but even having reraise. You might need someone to tractor your !@#$%^&* out of the mob area unless you want to die again


Ls member was in thier and all she saw was Mob casting Fire 3 and then she Burst into flames. She didnt survive.

Now most people I have seen are not camping as much now. cause they have a new thing . KS 30. my friend made over 15 mil doing 2 of them. He got that venimous claw from it both times. my firend just made about 3 mil yesterday. got 2 of the cloth used to make Vemillion cloak. Now most people are just fighting things to get some Kindred Seals.

BCNM 40 or any other

Please if u do this make sure you agree on how you are going to split the money.

I strongly suggest to always split the winnings. Also it is best done with friends. always trade the gil dont send it over the mail system since people can say they didnt get it.
