Before i was using teleports alot running the main story then i started using my chocobo and the chocobo porter which cost no more then 30 gil and airship its so much cheaper to use chocobo porter and airship then teleporting im up to 70k also all my gear came from story and the gold pieces you sell for 500 gill when some missions give you 4 or 5 at a time and you dont need the other options my gear is not bought at all got it all from story and it may not be the best but its decent enough for me to tank and do a good job as long as the party i have is good. After i get to 50 PLD im working on crafting and sell that on the market to make money
