    Getting a good 7/8 or 6/8 farm group going and carrying new people through new content to reap the solidery bonuses for first timers. For example if someone has completed turn 5, you could carry them all the way to turn 9. Same thing with Titan Ex and other primal battles.

    Doing the daily roulette for each category that gives soldiery and then running the expert over and over seems to be the fastest from what I've seen. Also if you can find people that have yet to do the story mission for castrum gives an extra 100 bonus tomes if you queue with them the first time.

    EX Roulette, High Level Roulette, Trial Roulette.
    Then run a few extra dungeons. You'll cap in 3 days even if this is ALL you do.
    Also yes helping people through old content such as t5 or the pre-shiva primals is a good way as well.
    Also farm parties are a great way if they're actual farm parties and not a group of meatbags that managed to survive a single run and think they're good enough to farm. (I know that sounds elitist but really you should make sure you know exactly what you're doing before you join a FARM party)

    Lol, I've yet to see people offer money for that. But maybe you can find some poor deprived person to pay you :B. Also, you'd be surprised how often you get new players when you solo queue for the main scenario roulette. If it's the first of the day you get the tomes from run + the roulette bonus + new player bonus.

    You mean like joining a garuda ex farm party for the mount, and have all the dps kill the plume during tornadoes? Failing about 5 times and get two kills isn't a farm party?

    or joining a Levi EX farm party and falling off.
    Or joining a shiva EX farm party and not butt stacking
    Or a Ramuh EX farm party and eating the tank orbs while standing in the water with chaotic strike on both healers when you're supposed to be baiting.
    Or looking at everyone lovingly while killing all the renauds during t7
    Or not hitting towers in t8
    or standing still with the flower in t6
    or running to the tank with conflagration in t5

    ALL OF THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME...MULTIPLE TIMES!

    There was someone in my server in the PF: WTB tank for Brayflox run 50k. I would have done it but I can't run dungeons till after 7pm.
