I don't want to sound like a jerk but have you actually done the quests? What rewards have you got that you consider good?Best i found were crystals, 14000ish gil and a rank 40ish robe .

Call me crazy but I never do quests for rewards. I do them because I like hearing everyones story. No matter how small it may seem. I learn a little bit more of the city, and the people who live in them.
