    Where to farm Soldiery / Poetics

    What's the go to way to farm Soldiery / Poetics now?

    I just came back from a 3 month break I'm i level 90 on my brd which I want to gear up, I have 3 UAT no oils no sands and I want to farm up soldiery / Poetics gear.

    Hunts doesn't seem to be an option I don't know why but my server on Party finder is never running them and I am in 6 Hunt LS that maybe did 1 A rank an hour total was so slow.

    Looking for a dungeon / raid that people would recommend thanks

    Right now probably the Duty Roulettes are your best bet for the higher numbers. Grind wise Snow Cloak isn't too bad, was doing 10-12 minute runs with double black mage without really trying. So I'm sure if you really go for it you can lower that number.

    Edit: Queueing DR Trials repeatedly as a Healer or Tank has it's benefits also. You get a new player and you get the bonus solderies.

    Doing your daily roulettes is alright. Probably the best way I've found to farm soldiery is to offer carry runs through first coil turns. A friend of mine puts up a party in PF asking for someone with the 100 soldiery bonus, we round up 5 more people to share the bonus with, and we basically give them minimal instruction and tear the place to shreds for them. The mats are a nice bonus. You hit the jackpot if you end up with someone that needs 1, 2, and 4. We've considered doing it with T5, but that's a little more fidgety since one clueless person can wipe you.

    I'd suggest you do frontlines. It's most effective reward-wised for me.(40 sol 20 poet,plus wolf marks and pvp title/rank up)

    Also it's less boring than grinding dungeons and you get to smack other people around :P

    Getting soldiery now is awful. Poetics just do 1 Expert roulette per day.

    Qarn speedruns. Snowcloak speedruns. Roulettes. Shiva HM might be the new Garuda HM for Soldiery/Poetics, but I don't know if anyone is interested in that method anymore.

    I keep repeating Qarn HM (40 Poetics) and Hullbreaker Isle (20 poetics). But it is slow. Roulette expert looks good and fast (75 poetics), but I cannot yet do, because Snowcloak needs the content 2.4 and do some months I am stopped in patch 2.1 (I dislike face primal).

    ST isn't bad for Soldiery, there's often a new person so you get a bonus.
    Plus with the loot cap removed you can pick up a lot of sands/ oils and even gear for your alt jobs

    For Poetics I just do my daily expert and it caps
