Ways to make Gil?

[Valkyrie_Lenneth]

It's *allowed* so you can get priority over other players on pieces you can equip, so you have first shot at upgrades over another role.

Using it for desynth/vendor/seals is rude, and players who do so are indubitably baddies.

I may need seals just as much as someone else needs gear. If it's tank or healer gear and it's a dungeon, well if you want it, ask. If not, go on that job if you want the gear.

Sure, you may need seals *just as much* as someone else needs gear. That's reasonable.

HOWEVER, when you're rolling need when they cannot, you are suggesting that you need seals MORE than they need gear.

If you do that, it's rude, and you'll always be a baddie in my book. Period.

Don't get me wrong, that's not the type of thing I'll say anything in group about...I just immediately start doing the exact same thing you did (and normally I'm the healer or tank so NOBODY can roll against me)...and if I was going to commend you...commend someone else instead...because I don't commend rude people.

It's perfectly fine to roll 'need' whenever you can. It's playing the game exactly how it was designed, and is not rude at all.

Only times I've ever had an issue are map parties with specific rule sets and people not reading them. Generally in most other cases rolling on need is recommended unless your raid group states otherwise for savage coffers.

Is the only way to make gil efficiently is by gathering jobs?

Gathering is for poor people. It turns time into gil at an inefficient rate, albeit a rate that's better than just about anything you can do with a battle class (besides run 8 person maps efficiently, but that still requires crafting for maximum profit). There are times certain nodes are worth hitting for basically anyone, but those are generally very limited opportunities and don't last long.

Crafting is a step above gathering, provided you know how to use it effectively.

Flipping is the true endgame. It requires the most investment of existing capital, but the least amount of time and yields huge profit if you do it well.

Oh guess making billions doing it makes one poor right?

That's a lot of time you threw away for no reason doing an inefficient activity.

A question: What do you need the money for?


I am also almost always comparably poor (right now I think 660,000 Gil). I used to be very much under pressure because of my funds ingame. That stopped as soon as I realized I do not need that much actually. I am just running my dailies, roulettes and some story quests, I could so far afford gear, Materia and all that stuff that got me always further in the story or at least a significant improvement with the Gils I made inbetween.

Apart from FC house related things, are you sure you even need those Gil?


If it's a personal sort of highsore you want to achieve then I can't help you. Or levelling crafters or something for the materials. But you are Level 80, so you should've figured out that Gil are not that super important as it's just a minor currency (compared to e.g. Tokens or Tomestones). Just to take off some pressure of your chest of the actual "need" to make Gil.

Anyone at max level with 660K max should be worried. By definition, you are below the poverty line.

To be fair, there are different kinds of poverty is this game. There are those who make no gil, and then there are those (like myself) who spend it faster than we bother to make it.

Well looking at your character and jobs, and your fashion, I can probably come to the conclusion you dont do endgame, housing, or even glamor. So yah of course you dont need gil is your dont play the actual game.
