Can someone explain me how to make giil?

[Irana]

I been surviving off of leves gil rewards but Im damn tired of that...

I ask ppl and all they say is "go farm mobs!" or "go gather!" my question is farm WHAT gather WHAT? and no one ever answers... so if someone could enlighten me as to how to make some gil I would greatly appreciate it.

Farm sheep. Lots and lots of sheep.
Gather iron ore. Lots and lots of iron ore.

Step 1: Go to wards look at what sells.
Step 2: Look if you have a level that can get it..
Step 3: ???
Step 4: PROFIT!

People will usually give generic answers with questions how do I make money.

If everyone does 1 thing the markets become flooded and the profits plummet, so people usually will not give exact things to do.

To really make money as others said look at the market, look at endgame gear see what makes it. Then see if you can farm/gather it. For low levels leather working stuff is a goldmine. Honestly anything that does not drop in Uldah's regions tends to sell decently.

Do leves. Do quests. Do storyline. Sell junk in wards. NPC what isn't sold often.

Experiment for yourself while waiting for a good answer.

Edit: you're 50 and still asking this question?

In FFXIV your level has nothing to do with how good/knowledgable of a player you are.

To answer the OP's question the best way to make gil is (Forum decided to eat my long post I made so I'll sum it up)

If your not willing to gather/craft, find out what materials you can farm that are used to make expensive items (Arrows, and such are a good consumable market) Unfortunatly the best gil/time markets will always be in consumable items and materials something DoW/DoM classes don't really thrive at doing.

Your best friend is "Research" keep an eye on whats popular in the game and provide those items for a fair price and you will always find gil in your pockets. Try to jump on "Fads" before others do, buy up items you know will probably fetch a pretty penny next patch (IE: Ifirit is next patch...maybe stock up on Fire resist stuff)

Best thing DoW/DoM can do is grind materia, for a small investment and some research on the conversion charts you can make a good dime selling materia in the wards.

1. Get two friend that have different GC from you.
2. Ask them this week's supply and provisioning item.
3. You get a list of things of most wanted items this week.
4. Repeat next week.

What is considered a lot of gil now? I mean I know hundreds of millions make you a 1%er but what amount just makes you rich?
