    gil troubles

    im thinking of returning after 3 month break from game. I stopped playing after I felt so disappointed in the new 119 trial. my bravura took 18 months to make to 99 and dyna farming the new trial would take a further 240 days if I can farm 100 a day. iv come to terms with this but given the game seems to be being made easyer every update hows about se lets us npc our cruor again. it would make me happier to have a few diff ways to farm gil as im lost atm for ways to earn except dyna which after 18 months to make my bravura 99 im not sure I can cope with for another year lol.
    just a thought

    Dynamis farming isn't very good for gil... That said I think you are overstating this a bit. Also look into RoE you can farm pluton directly more or less. Basically 40 ep kills will get you one

    I'm confused. You stopped playing after the introduction of the quests to upgrade RME to 119, which was one month ago, then you took a three month break, and now you're coming back? Three months after an event that happened one month ago?

    Expect the price of pluton to come down now that there are many more sources of it. As Dasva said, you can farm it, sorta. With Records of Eminence, several times a day you are given a task to do. It is a simple task that you can do solo. I think it varies. Three times for me it has been "Kill 20 XP wielding monsters of the Vermin family." I think you gotta do this outside of Abyssea, but that's pretty easy. Quick trip to Crawler's Nest will help you there. When you complete this task the first time in that cycle, you will receive an item called a Bronze A.M.A.N Medal. Turn this in to an NPC (they stack, and the NPC will also store them for you) and you can buy pluton. 2 medals gets you one pluton.

    When this special task is assigned, a funky little musical thing plays and some big fancy text scrolls across your screen. You can't miss it. Also the task will be automatically assigned to you, and I think it appears in blue text in your Records of Eminence log. I'm going off memory here. I could be wrong on some details.

    Dynamis is still good gil... I see people selling currency really fast still. There are TONS of methods to make gil, you can even solo salvage now to get alexandrite which still sell for 15k+

    ty zar I have seen those messages but I didn't know that was the reward I will do em from now on, are they just random or do I get another the second I complete one?


    and I stopped playing 3 months ago when they got rid of click and buy because se wont accept my card details for some reason so I struggled with them for 2 months and when the update came out I stopped trying to sort the problem, I quit 3 months ago was just me trying to not type all this lol

    They come up 3 times a day, for 2 hours at a time:
    6 AM to 10 AM
    3 PM to 5 PM
    10 PM to 12 AM

    Eastern time. If you're online during those two hour windows, the quest is automatically started. You are notified with that scrolling message and musical chime. I think you have until the next window to complete it.

    The quests are repeatable, but you only get an A.M.A.N voucher the first time during that window. So if the goal is "kill 20 vermin" that comes up at 3 PM, once you kill 20 vermin before the 10 PM window, you get sparks, XP, and the AMAN voucher. If you kill 20 vermin a second time, you jut get the sparks and XP, no voucher.

    Since there are 3 windows, and you get one voucher for each completion, and 2 vouchers = 1 RME upgrade item, you can farm up to 1.5 plutons in a day. The gil I typically get from a Dynamis farming is equal to 2 plutons at current prices. So I can get 3.5 plutons in a day. Though, personally, work keeps me from doing the 3-5 PM window, so it's more like 3 plutons per day. I could get it done in about 3 and a half months. You could too.
