Any job that can build amber lights.
Avoid any weaponskill that build ruby light, and try to get the final blow with a DoT or regular melee swing to boost your pearl lights to increase the rate at which chests appear.
Abyssea - Konschtat
Build amber lights to ~100-120 (avoid going over this.)
The goal here is for gold chests.
They will drop any variety of synthesis materials.
The reason to do Aby-Kon however, is for the augmented Dark Rings. These beauties npc for ~33k each if I remember correctly. Also, due to the ability to get -6% physical and magic damage taken on these, they're a must have for any job building a -DT set.
The benefits to this as opposed to other options is your ability to utilize both Cruor buffs, and Atmas (higher damage, reraise, and large regen) to minimize kill times and downtime from being damaged.
