I made 60 million gil off of meerkat drops. It would have been a lot more if I had known they were going to crash the market by making it a super common drop in the same area the new minion dropped from (really bad design choice). As it was, I got 4 meerkats from Coldtoe before the new zones were added, and it was good coin and well worth the timecompared to anything else I could have been going for at the time. Now, the meerkats are so common they're quickly becoming trash drops like the sharksucker or abroader otter minions. Silver Dasher seems a bit more common than the meerkat as well and its prices are quickly deteriorating from what they were. It just being yet another lil birdie minion doesn't help it's demand either. I managed to get one early and sell it for a nice sum, but I expect by the time I get another (on top of the one I will use for myself), it will be selling for only a fraction of where it is at even now. Hoping for some sintered whetstones but so far no luck on that front.
