A few Farming questionsFollow

This is what I've been doing recently. Pretty simple. Made just over 200K clear profit in 3 days. Total time farming - 7 hours.

What you need.
-Main at 30 or higher and THF sub for TreasureHunter.
-At least 20 free inventory slots. The more the better.
-Stack of Dark Crystals x4. AH approx. 5K per stack
-Stack of Windurstian Tea Leaves x4. Approx. 20gil each from NPC vendor in Windurst Waters near gate to Saruta.
-Stack of Distilled Water x4. Approx. 10 gil each from various vendors.

Total investment 21440. Give or take a few gil.

Now just head to any zone with a lot of sheep. Konschtat is best. Kill sheep, make leather. Make up stacks of teeth and inventory space permitting, G. Sheep meat.

Why this makes money.
Sheep Leather sells at about 20K per stack right now.
Sheep Teeth at about 2-3K and Meat at about 500-800 gil.

You may get lucky and get Stray Mary. Mary's Horn can make your day. :)
You may nail a couple rams. Skin and Horn drops are great with TH1. My personal worst is 2 skins, 1 horn with TH1. My best is 4 skins and 3 horns. That's 10K right there.

It usually takes me just under 3 hours to make 4 stacks of leather, a stack of teeth and 3 stacks of meat. Without the bonus gil from ram drops, Stray Mary and beating up wasps for beehive chips and honey I still make about 85K for a total profit of approx 65K. There are also Lightening and Earth Elementals to kill for clusters.

Obviously you can add 20K profit to that if you can farm dark clusters.
It's not 30K+ per hour guaranteed, but you can do 20-25K per hour without breaking a sweat.

Enjoy.

You CANT make that in sheep leathers. Your best bet would be to level and go kill NM"s or something. Do not try the sheep thing, it will make you waste money on stuff.

And if that didn't deter you from it. Good luck with all your gil

You know, this is one of the reasons I stopped posting here for awhile.

I get Karma bombed for offering an inciteful, useful piece of information.

When I first came across Alla, specifically the Bismarck forums it was about players helping players. Now it seems that you get punished for this. Shame on me for offering up what I thought was common knowledge as I am not the only one using this technique for making gil.

So since I'm gonna get fu[/b]cked for being helpful here are some more money makers:

1. Goldsmithing up to Lv. 20.... Done right can make a steady income. Start on Copper ingots. 9 gil each ore at the guild. Sell stacks for profit slowly work your way through copper sheets, brass ingots and sheets and finally silver.
Suppliment your ore purchases by mining in Zeruhn. I've kept track of my progress upto Lv. 30 goldsmithing. I'm 300K up. Patience makes money, Powerleveling a craft is NOT profitable.

2. Treecuttings. Spot near Boyahda is perenially over camped by the Hoohoo's and KiiKii's and Kuk's. Head north to the ZM5 NM area.

3. Fishing. Nebimonites. I started catching these at around Lv.16 fishing. Used for black ink which is used for Shihei. Nebs can be targeted with the right bait and rod.

4. Logging in Buburimu. I am usually the only one there when I go. Kill Wind Elementals and use clusters to make lumber from the cheaper logs (keeps inventory from clogging up and a good way to start Woodworking). Lumber stacks and the occasional big dollar log can make upwards of 30K in 1h30 for the measely downpayment of the cost of 1 stack of hatchets.

You can see the jobs in my signature. I funded all of them on this income and put over 1 mil in my bank account.

Happy gil earning.

And to the fu[b]cks that will rate me down for this. WOULD YOU PREFER I SAID GO TO IGE?!?!?

....asshats.
