Post Your Solution For Gil Generation

[danteafk]

So I am nearly broke now. I ran Amdapor Keep over 100x by now. The repair costs for just this week have been over 60.000.

I want to play the endgame and have fun, thus earning money while I do this so I can self-sustain.

I do not want to Craft. I do not want to gather some silly materials or go fishing - thats not my thing. It is boring imo. I do not want to level another job to 50 just for the sake to gather Gil, which will be nontheless harder since there are barely any quests left and Id need to Fate-Grind.

Why can`t you just sell items from Dungeons? In every other game you can sell/trade items from raids/dungeons in order to sustain.

How am I supposed to survive, economically?

You're complaining because, while playing at absolute breakneck pace and deliberately ignoring gathering and crafting and farming, it's difficult to make money?

Eesh, just dedicate 2% of the time you've spent in a single dungeon to making gil and you'll be fine. >_>

Not a single thing you said has anything to do with this thread.

Sure it does: I'm indirectly saying that making gil is not as great a problem as some people seem to believe.

without crafting or gathering, you aren't going to make any money. Stop trying to plow the game because that's why your broke. Idjit

And what, dear slow one, do you suppose will happen when you are crafting all these weapons for those "plowing the game" and they can't afford it because all the wealth has accumulated with the crafters and gatherers? Well, then you have to wait to sell anything because the people who "plow" will have to level crafts. Meanwhile, those who made money early will simply level their clearly-not-plowing characters and exchange money with each other.

The people who chose to level "plow" classes will remain poor until the higher tiers while the people like you (who CLEARLY chose to play the right way because you're so great and always right) will continue to sit on large amounts of money. This ends in a picture we like to call stagnation.

Fun fact: Those people "plowing the game" are the least lucrative market for us as they get all their gear normally via questing and dungeons. Our markets are generally like minded people - gear and tools for those leveling crafting and gathering professions, raw materials, materia, and items used in various quests. Thus, if the aforementioned demographic is broke....it doesn't really matter to us.

At least that's been my experience, YMMV. I've made most of my market board gil from weaving clothes used by other DOL/DOH classes.

I want to play video games and have fun, i want someone to pay me to play video games all day so i can self-sustain.

I do not want to get a job, i do not want to work, that's not my thing.

Just thought id throw that in there for real life comparison. you don't get to be CEO of a multinational conglomerate by not working or having qualifications.

You seem to forget that if everybody took part in gathering/crafting they would not be a viable source of gil.
