If there’s one factor you’re all the time going to be in want of in Remaining Fantasy XIV, it’s Gil. It’s the principle foreign money in Eorzea and whether or not you’re looking for gear to extend your iLvl, glamour objects, or minions, you’re going to wish it and loads of it. 

It’s honest to say that some issues, particularly sought-after issues like mounts and minions, are ludicrously costly to purchase. It’s additionally honest to say that crafting is, because it’s extensively acknowledged, one of the best ways to make piles of Gil in a short time. 

I’ve wracked my mind, thought again to my early in-game expertise and I’ve give you some methods to make Gil with out crafting in FFXIV. It’s price remembering that none of those are prone to make you a Gillionaire, except you get very fortunate, and a few of them are simpler than others. However hey, any cash is sweet cash, proper?

Treasure Maps are good for making a fast buck

For those who’re eager to make a fast buck in FFXIV, top-of-the-line methods to do it’s by operating Treasure Maps, particularly high-level ones corresponding to Kumbhiraskin and Ophiotauroskin Maps. 

Whilst you gained’t all the time spawn a portal upon utilizing a Map or get fortunate within the dungeon itself, there’s all the time an opportunity that you simply’ll get a uncommon minion or sought-after materials from a chest inside. In addition they give hefty sums of Gil as a reward on their very own, as nicely, in order that they’re undoubtedly price exploring.

Earlier than you may participate within the Treasure Hunt, you’ll want to finish the extent 36 quest “Treasure and Tribulations”, which will be picked up by speaking to H’loonh in Jap La Noscea (X:21.1, Y:21.1).

Work in the direction of your weekly challenges 

After finishing the extent 15 quest “Rising to the Problem” (head to Limsa Lominsa Higher Decks and discuss to I’tolwann (X:11.4, Y:11.0) if you happen to haven’t achieved this but!), you’ll acquire entry to the Problem Log. 

This log is cut up into completely different classes, together with Battle, Crafting & Gathering, and Levequests. Whereas some challenges reward different currencies upon completion, corresponding to Wolf Marks or MGP, most will offer you a pleasant chunk of change (both 1,000 or 2,000 Gil) when accomplished. 

The Problem Log refreshes similtaneously the final weekly reset, 2 a.m. on a Tuesday, so be sure to get them accomplished earlier than this occurs otherwise you’re lacking out on free Gil.

Be the ‘adventurer in want’

When operating each day roulettes, it’s all the time a good suggestion to examine which kind of participant is classed as “in want”. For those who queue for a Responsibility as the sort of Job (Healer, Tank, or DPS), you’ll not solely acquire a big enhance of EXP, but additionally Gil as nicely. 

You’ll solely obtain this enhance if you happen to queue for an obligation with lower than the required variety of individuals in your social gathering. In case you are queueing with three pals for a Dungeon roulette, this buff gained’t apply.

Levequests are repetitive, however they arrive with financial rewards

I’m the primary particular person to confess that doing Levequests just isn’t my thought of a enjoyable time, nevertheless, a few of the greater stage Levequests supply a relatively enormous quantity of Gil when you think about how little effort is concerned. 

That is very true for Giant Scale Levequests, obtainable in Basis. A few of these Levequests supply a reward of greater than 10,000 Gil per completion, in order that they’re undoubtedly price doing. 

You get three Levequest Allowances each 24 hours of actual time as much as a most of 100 and what you do with them is as much as you. I’d recommend utilizing them in case you have them, although, as a result of in any other case, you’re simply lacking out on free Gil for little or no effort. 

Hoard and promote every thing

Whether or not you’ve been grinding out dungeon runs, tackling FATEs within the overworld, or your retainers have returned from a enterprise with objects in tow, nearly every thing will be offered for a revenue in FFXIV. It’s unlikely that you simply’ll acquire something of great worth by any of those strategies, although it does occur, however it is possible for you to to amass loads of objects. 

For those who don’t wish to fiddle with the Marketboard, you may merely head to any vendor who sells objects for Gil and choose the “Buyback” tab within the pop-up window. Both click on and drag objects out of your stock into the seller’s pop-up window, or proper click on the merchandise in your stock and click on “promote”. 

For those who’re comfy utilizing the Marketboard, it may be an excellent place to promote stacks of things, particularly excessive stage objects that you simply’ve gathered your self. Even if you happen to’re against Crafting, it is best to undoubtedly look into Gathering. It may be fairly enjoyable to zone out, hearken to music, and pile up the supplies in your stock. 

And if you happen to’re up for slightly little bit of dodgy buying and selling, regulate merchandise costs on completely different servers by using instruments corresponding to Universalis. Gadgets can typically be bought cheaply on different servers and offered for a revenue in your house world. I do know it feels scummy, however you’ve gotta do what you’ve gotta do, typically. 

Take advantage of your FC credit and GC seals

There are a few issues that you are able to do along with your FC and GC seals to rework the foreign money to Gil:

• Replenish on GC seals by buying and selling in often untradeable dungeon gear and, so long as you’ve reached the rank of Captain, you’ll be capable to purchase Materiel Crates. These include minions and mounts which may typically be fairly useful. 
• Use your FC credit to buy objects from the OIC Quartermaster. These things can then be offered on the Martketboard for Gil. Miniature Aetherytes are a fairly secure guess, right here as Property homeowners want them with a purpose to teleport to their home. 

You can even buy some supplies which will likely be wanted by Crafters, a few of which may also be offered on the Marketboard.

Regulate Moogle Treasure Trove occasions

Invariably, Moogle Treasure Trove occasions supply at the least one standard merchandise which may then be offered on the Marketboard for Gil. Normally, this can be a minion or mount, so regulate which can be found in every occasion.

Take the Hunt for Genesis II, as an example, which begins on Might 14. One of many rewards is the Ufiti Horn, which is promoting for between 500,000 and 600,000 Gil on the time of writing. These are good objects to buy utilizing Tomestones, put aside, after which promote at a later date when demand will increase once more.

Facet quests won’t make you wealthy, however at the least it’s one thing

Let’s be trustworthy, there are fairly actually a whole lot of aspect quests in Remaining Fantasy XIV and each single one in all them rewards at the least a handful of Gil upon completion. Whereas it’d solely appear to be pennies, clearing out a complete zone of aspect quests will enhance your coffers by a fairly hefty sum. 

Sure, they’re tedious at occasions and, if you happen to’re not cautious, you’ll spend extra teleporting across the map than you earn by doing them. Nevertheless, if you happen to’re actually caught and dedicate your self to flying relatively than teleporting, you may earn sufficient to purchase your self one thing fairly if you get again to a metropolis state.
