Gil problem

[indira]

good luck making money unless your a lv50 crafter with 255+ control.

if yout not money will be slow selling mats, people undercutting everything to the extreme.

didn't you get the /tell & /shouts of 10k for only 5 dollar? everyone must be rich by now.

I was on 2.5 mil at start of release, im now on 5.1 mil just from selling Craftsmenship tier II and III materia. Really glad I hoarded every bit of materia I got from 1.0.

Still got 300 IVs and 400 IIIs cracked material left Wont be selling any more as the rest is for my gear sets, just glad I doubled my gil in launch week.

Because spamming my chat log totally makes me more willing to buy from them. I currently have 150k gil, almost all of it from quests. Once i'm done with the story, there are no quests left so I'll just focus on non-combat classes to get some more money.

(Asking this here because my main isn't high enough to create a thread, and 1017 won't let me into the game to level... well played Square. Well played.)

Anyway, a lot of people are saying you can get Gil by making items and selling them on the auction house.. and i get that, usually the best way to get Gil; It only transfers Gil already in the system though.

Does anyone know what bring the majority of Gil into the system? As in, if someone just wanted to collect raw Gil without playing the auction house, what activity would bring in a sizable amount of Gil into their pocket? It just seems that once quests are done, the game doesn't really give you much Gil at all through any of the activities.

I'd tell you, but you'd probably just run right back when the next problem comes up. Figure it out.

Mining seems good way get money. HQ iron bar 170 gil. would be nice have some daily quest that give decent money rewards...

The economy is already in rough shape, if they start giving out gil it's going to make things worse

dungeon farming is quite profitable atm. The items needed for relics that drop in The Wanderers palace sell well on my server. Also any of the mats you need to buy for allegan tomestones like coke will net you decent gil. Simple mats for crafting seem overpriced right now too, stuff like diremite webs. The trick is to see what the average level of people learning crafts is on your server, find out the popular recipes they'll be exping on and go gather those mats.

Tradecraft Duties can get you a pretty good amount of gil, and you get triple the reward if its high quality.

Is there a use for Allagan tin/bronze/silver other than selling ?
