First I'll say this I don't farm on DNC because I have other options available.

Second this is the method I've used on MNK/DNC and WAR/DNC to solo skill up inside Abyssea while keeping time in the positive range.

Disclaimer: this applies to Scars/Visions not Heroes

1. Farm 20-50 Pearl Lights.
2. Farm 50-100 Ruby Lights. This will give you enough lights to favor Ruby chests but not enough lights to go past Pearl/Azure showing up.
3. Focus on killing fast and opening Ruby chests that have Azure/Pearl lights.
4. Once you've gotten Azure to 128+ go do w/e you want to do.

An alternative in Mis. Coast (at least on Bismarck that zone has capped lights) pay a BLM to kill 2 HQ Murex for you to have capped Azure. Usually I'll find one in the zone soloing and they'll gladly help out or I've offered 10-50k gil which isn't much anymore but it gets the lights I need faster than my alternative.
