    Mining 50 and rotation

    What's your rotation to get ores? What worth to get?

    For now, i'm getting only Gold Ore.. The absurd is that while Gold Ore i can sell for 450 gil each, Gold Sand, that i get in same proportion is 30 gil.

    Anyway, how u do to make the best profit?

    Crystals and Shards then TP to Darksteel and Gold when they pop. Why are you only getting gold ore if it spawns once an hour? I can't imagine that being very profitable.

    Not that absurd. You need *at least six* Gold Ores to create the mats for *every single* GSM two-star equipment synth. *And* at least three to make every GSM one-star equipment synth except Blacksmith's Goggles. *And* it's used extensively in one and two star recipes in Weaving, Blacksmith, Armorer and Leatherworker. Gold Sand is used only to make the four top-level grimoires--ilvl 55 and 70 for SCH and SMN. And each of those only needs three.
