Gil Glutton - Questing for gil - Sandy Edition

One of the easiest ways of making gil is by questing. Starting out this is how I made the bulk of my money. The best way is to find a convenient, constant, repeatable quest. I'll be updating the list by region to make it easier to sift through. Happy questing!





The Rivalry/The Competition - $10 - $15 - Joulet or Gallijaux (H-8) PSandy - Fame 1
Moat carp and or Forest carp x 10,000
*Unless you obtain Lu Shang's Fishing Rod this quest is not cost effective Carp can be sold for better money on the auction house*



Starting a Flame - $100 - Legata (K-6) - SSandy - Fame 1
Flint Stone (x4)
*Best hunting grounds for flint stones are the Giant Grub's in Dangruf Wadi*

Approx. 40,000 kills will = $1 million gil at this drop rate.

Rabbit Hide (x3)
* Best hunting grounds for rabbit hides are the Wild Rabbit's in East Ronfaure*
