Hi guys,

I have a Miner up to level 23 (I know, so uber). Right now, my intention is to just specialize in Mining, and use it to simply produce gil for myself. I am punching away at silver ore witha 57% gathering rate. I've been mixing some leves in here and there etc.

My main question is: My short term goal is to make 60k to buy my ridiculously expensive Battledance III materia for my PLD's Relic quest, and then obviously to be able to make a decent amount of gil or move into goldsmithing/armorer in the future. With that in mind, should I burn up all my banked leves (I have 90ish right now) to get to a certain level that will allow me to produce decent amounts of gil, or should I just keep plugging away on nodes and selling as I go up?
