How much gil do you have going into 4.0?

I have 1.2 million becuse EVERYTHING in stormblood is going to be expensive AF when it comes out

atm around 250m on my main char because i buy new FC and stuff, alts own about 10-20mil each but i set as a goal to hit gil cap before 4.0 hit. :rolleyes:
atm is nothing else to do anyways so i am trying to do so much crafts as i can.

regards hobbit

I only have 12 million, but I just came back to the game after more than a year a week or so ago. I'm leveling some DoH now and last time I did that was in the last couple of weeks of ARR, which was still enough time to make several million, so I imagine I'll find a way to get a good chunk more in the next several months.

6.5m at the moment, but i haven't started stockpiling yet. Once I finish off my relic I will get back to crafting for gil.

301k gil. Lol.

I am going to have 700k soon!

2m. In my current server, making gil is stupidly useless. Marketboard sucks here, I just gave up buying new glamour stuff =/

lol are this even enough for teleport? xD i really dunno how ppl can survive with this ammount on gil xD

just run 3 dungeons and you already collect enough lore and GC seals or dungeon drops that bring on the market more than that what you own.

I think a lot of people say Gil is meaningless because there's very little to actually spend it on that has any real "worth".

In a way it follows the same flaws as materia, food and medicines.

Players don't use food because it's worthless. The Stat boosts are so trivial and insignificant when your gear is already 30+ I levels above the content. How much will a 50k prestly omlette make a difference in my dun scaith or zurvan ex run. might be a few seconds faster, but then it might be slower cos of the other players in my group making mistakes. so the reality is that food makes no noticable difference and thus has no worth. which is why noone bothers with it.

Materia is exactly the same the reason so many people don't meld gear is because of how quickly that gear will be replaced. It's not worth investing in putting materia in you're 260 body when you're just going to augment it to 270 in a few weeks. And once again players already out gear content so much that a few savage aim/might materias isn't going to have a huge impact on content that you already outgear anyway.

Same yet again with medicines.

And once again with money. Anything purchasable will always be inferior to drops. And drops come so quick that there's no point purchasing it.

Like the 250 crafted gear. Why pay 8 million for a body when you'll probably have a 260 one next week? There's just no point.

And thus outside of glamor money is absolutely meaningless.

Which is exactly the same with gear. The only lasting value gear has is its glamor value. so unless it looks goods it's worthless,

I have 120 million but the reason I have 120 million is because there's nothing "worth" spending it on or investing in. So my Gil is essentially useless...

Can my gil get me a good weapon? nope. i could spend 4 or 5 million on a crafted 250 weapon and another couple of million on materia. or i could just spend an hour doing sophia or zurvan and get a much better one.. so even if did spend the millions i could quite probably have a better one in a couple of hours... thus no point...
Only time I spend any is for convenience. Sod spending 15 mins gathering a hundred logs I'll just buy a stack.

this is the problem with the market on the whole. theres tons of people selling everything but very few people buying it. because ultimately nothing has value outside of glamour.

60 mil atm still saving, not spending.

It's not that I don't know how to make money, it's just that I'm not motivated to get much because I have everything I want. The only thing I can do with extra money is save for my FC's large house (I have a personal Medium Mist house, and my FC has a small Goblet one because that was what was available). I have 4 months to save up 38 more million gil, currently 12mil. I also spend a bit of money to try and buy random Healer materia... but that's chump change.

9.6 Mil. its the most money i've ever had. Just got a WVR to 50 so hoping to make more money soon

Currently about 57mil.

Right now I have about 20 milion gil and I don't think it'll go much higher (most likely it'll go down depending on my glamour greed lol:rolleyes:)

I currently sit at about 13 millions, I also have a small house and an appartment and FC room in which I mostly made the furniture myself to save on costs. I don't really play recently besides for the weekly upgrade items so I don't expect it to change much by the time Stormblood comes around.

36k.... I dont save gil. Why because I want to make sure the FC house looks awesome so my FC mates can have a nice spot to hang out or AFK... Totally worth the gil spent :)

Not enough.

200M at least and waiting for new housing 4.0

More than enough to fund each of my FC mates for the chase when new housing is released. It's time to upgrade to a Large.

Halone's Frozen T..... tears? Gods honey, come to balmung and I'll get it crafted for you for mats and a few thousand gil. 10 million for a poncho is insane.

1.3b. Maybe i'll have 1.5-1.6ish when Stormblood comes. I don't know. I've eased up on money making recently.

Around 7 mil. Which is about 6.5 mil more than I need.
Glamours last me a long time. I got used to glamouring over every piece of bard gear as I got it, because they are all so fugly, but it's usually the same glamour items each time. Got a room in the FC house to throw the random crap my retainers bring until it maxed out. No reason to get a house or apartment.
I don't really need to buy anything on a daily basis besides teleports, repairs, and fish off the MB to turn in at the GC (level 59 fisher with an empty fishing log W00T).
I have a couple of stacks of grade IV crit, det, and ss materia from beast tribe quests for when I want to meld items. Grade Vs are burned about as quickly as I get them.
It's a game. Even if I go broke, it's no big deal. The only money that matters is real dollars, and I refuse to put any more into this game than the most basic sub.
If they went to a different art style like BnS, they would probably have all my moneys.

Like 23 million I think. I never bother taking it off retainers. The sad part is I've been playing pretty much constantly since launch and never really spent that much of it. So I feel like I could/should have a lot more than I do.

DoL all my mats
DoH gear
DoW lore mats
Desynthesis dungeon gear for mats
Dungeon run for mats
Hunts for GC seal mats

Anything to not buy from MB.

More profit if I sell.
Cheaper if I keep item.
