Early to Rise Hair drop

I got the hair first time doing the run and after 35 run, never seeing it again, but instead of selling it to market while the price is 10 million+, I incidentally use it instead because i thought it was a useless stuff (I am new to the game and never know that hairstyle is actually that desirable)

Using the hair all the time right now not because i like it, but to remind myself dont be an idiot next time

None of it are "tips" the best way to make gil is a game play/life style change, you have to become a crafter/gatherer if not both.
If you haven't already leveling all your gatherer's to max is the best way to start your crafting journey as it allows you to basically exchange time x gil depending on what resource you farm and also allows you to circumvent buying certain pricey materials for your crafters.

From there you start the long journey of leveling all your crafters up to 80, once that happens making gil is fairly easy as it becomes more time x gil except better especially if you prepare for the rat race that is tier drop.
I know raiders who keep 10m gil saved just so they can buy their crafted set and pots on patch day drop.

If you don't want to do all that another easy way to make gil though not efficient at all in terms of actually grinding gil is to do dog & dragon farm runs and sell the mat drop, if there is a relevant shiny new weapon you can sell it for like 1-2m.
But it has to drop and you have to beat 7 other people in the loot roll. However you can desynth all weapon drops from said farms once you have a crafter at 30 and that also has a chance to drop said mat, iirc.

You can also do roulette's and do grand company turn ins and turn your seals into glamour prisms for easy cash. For the first month when people didn't know you could do this it was a decently lucrative market.

You can also run maps that you get from your gatherer's or from buying them. These maps give more mats for crafting and sometimes have portals which have varying gil worth ranging from 10k-3m maybe 5m depending not only on how lucky you are but how relevant the mats you get are to new items, specifically glamour.

Getting lucky and being on the cutting edge of new content is another way to make gil if you're lucky. 2B hairstyle drops from new raid, day 1 it sells for 10m, 3 days later it's selling for 2m. Sell day 1 for 10m, buy back day 3 for 2m, profit 8m.

Finally you can do hunt trains, they're fast, easy, happen all the time, and require almost no effort. It's just a matter of teleporting around and killing mobs. Every kill rewards you hunt currency and items that can be converted into materia which you can sell for easy money. In fact your best bet for making quick cash the fastest and most consistent is unfortunately hunt trains.



All in all the closer we get to 6.0 the deader DR is going to get which means the supply is going to get even lower and the price is going to hike up unless SE changes stuff. This is all conjecture though because the game is currently kind of in a lull and DR might be even more active once 6.0 drops along with its changes, who knows.

Over 200 runs, 1 barding, one mount, no hairstyle. I stopped running it a while ago.

They might increase the drop rate a bit with next patch, which will include a Bozja update, but who knows. They might not.

Does it though? I'd wonder how many players are spamming DR several hundred times just for the hairstyle, mount or barding. I'd have expected most of us were there for relics. It's much faster to just farm the gil and buy them.

To be fair, they only have to think it's impacting queues. The whole reason PvP has exclusive mounts is the dev team stubbornly clings to the notion it helps keep Feast alive. It doesn't but good luck convincing them otherwise.

Way over 100 runs, still no hair, no mount, no barding. (but bought mount and barding from the MB)

It looks nice on you :)

Well over 100 runs between my main and alt. ZERO hairstyle drops. 4 mounts, 1 barding, and hours upon hours of insomnia.
