I only have babelfish to try and translate this, but Sylkis may have just have posted a confirmation that this sequence worked:
Total to perform:
600 Broken Blade
300 Azeyma's Shields
700 Horn & Hand

Well, from lodestone-stalking the people who have achieved this, they all do the 5 Ishguard leves and then 1 more.
Yes, basically what I posted but they used Operation: Warm Welcome.
Since your history can fit 8 leves and these methods only require 6, do the other 2 slots remain empty or is it irrelevant which leves are in those spaces?
It looks like the remaining 2 slots are additional opportunities to factor in an even larger reward, but 6 can be sufficient.
Well done, we have a lot of data shared here that seems to be exactly what we needed to solve the achievement issue.
I thank everyone who was so willing to test and share their data so openly from the start. Not everyone is so generous, lol.
still gather faction points to test this lol
i have 800 h&h now :)
but the rest still @ 200 :(
That's assuming the leve offered allows the use of stars. if it is a Horn and Hand faction, it will not.
Do you have to make sure the rewards for the listed faction leves are "gil only" and not "gil + item"?

Heres the sequence I did:
1. Old Money (Iron Lake)
2. Golden Opportunity (Riversmeet)
3. A Weighty Problem (Glory)
4. Heat of the Moment (Glory)
5. Operation: Scar and Defeather (Dragonhead)
6. Wanted: Toadsquatter Femomo (Dragonhead)
Evaluation: 65,500 gil
7. Wanted: Mammoth and Master (Bloodshore)
Evaluation: 78,000 gil
8. Operation: Pulling Fangs (Broken Water)
Evaluation: 90,000 gil
Stacked with 11k leve reward on Golden Opportunity (Riversmeet), I got a 101,000 gil reward.
I am not sure if this made any difference, but I took care to only grab leves that rewarded gil, not marks. If it didn't reward gil, i'd pick up the others and checked again.
