I had *no* idea about the Teamcraft retainer helper! Thank you so much - that'll be a huge help, I'm sure. Frankly, a guide on the ins and outs of Teamcraft, and how to get the most out of it, might be *really* useful.
Teamcraft does have a lot of useful tools included, I might look into that!
I have one to add: firmament fêtes! You get a box at the end that’ll either contain a currency you can use to buy expensive dye to resell, or other items, some of which are worth hundreds of thousands of Gil.
What makes fêtes so good is that the bar of entry is incredibly low. All you need is a character that has completed heavensward with a lvl 15 gatherer or crafter. You don’t even need to be familiar with the class or skilled at the game to do these.
Back when we started the game I was able to make enough money to bid on a house long before I hit 90 this way.
As a returning player thank you so much for this man!!!! I need to find a way to make some Gil passively and this looks pretty simple
I never understand why people don't include this in these guides. It takes half an hour to do, is extremely easy (if perhaps a bit tedious), you can do it several times a day (and it returns every few days) and you can easily make a really decent Gil haul, and though it's not very much, the activities also are a little bit of XP for your gatherer/crafter. No-brainer for people who want some extra Gil floating around. I'm not much into market board shenanigans or many of the other ways of making money, so I used to always be too cash-poor to justify buying expensive glams. These days every time I want a little extra I just do this. Another thing I do is Retainer Quick Exploration - it's not very lucrative, but the equipment they find can be traded in for GC currency, and every so often they drop a box which usually contains a dye, and occasionally contains the most expensive dye in the game. The other day I made over a million gil just from selling one of those.
The field exploration retainer ventures are good if you’re not going to log on again for at least 18 hours. It’s guaranteed to bring back the allagan Gil sacks and sometimes rare minions. If you have at least 3-4 retainers on this you can make decent Gil if you just log in once a day
Yeah, and those gil sacks are handy for the Doman Enclave hand-in, since you don't have to find anything else to give to them. No need to buy anything from the MB, it's just straight profit (minus whatever you spent for the ventures, but those things are comedically cheap).
This! I like doing juuuust enough of the long ventures to get 40 Allagan Silver Pieces, then give those to the Doman Enclave. That way I don't have to stress about resetting Retainers while I'm sleeping or working. @@D0cSwiss
The long time retainer ventures are good for the Allagan coins, with 3 runs giving enough every week (40 at max lvl) to turn in for the Doman reconstruction. Also, as an added bonus, tend to return items useable got GC daily turn ins, though the coins are the real point.
I know you mentioned materia from the Island Sanctuary, but I'd say the dyes are worth it too. They're the expensive-ish ones and with the two dye channels coming up next expansion, there's almost certainly going to be a boom in demand for dyes. Ruby Red's already a popular one, and since you can't buy Jet Black from them, it'll probably be the most reliably sold dye from the Island Sanctuary.
A tiny correction to your section about retainer ventures. Quick Exploration is actually a faster way to level your retainer, also they only take 1 hour. So if you play 6 hours for example and do them every hour, you get 6 explorations done and get atleast like 4x more exp than doing an 18 hour one. Besides that Quick Exploration can also give you random high value items. I recently got a Calfskin Rider Jacket that is worth 1 million~ and many housing items and other stuff worth a lot, yeah it's random, but there is much more than you've told in this video.
This said, I am not even going for the 18 hour exploration, because it is also not worth it if you come back online before the 18 hour exploration is finished, because in that time you could've done quick explorations and gained much more.
A downside to this is that you need way more ventures, but they are basically free. You do some of your dailys, need and greed everything and then turn that stuff in for seals and buy the ventures. Even if you don't do a lot of dailys you will never run out of ventures and also will be safe, because after some weeks you will have multiple hundreds of them and then you can buy Material Container 3.0 or 4.0 for minions and the chance for mounts.
I tried Quick Exploration for a loooong time and very rarely got anything good out of it. I just see it as gambling, versus the guaranteed returns of other ventures. I don't think it's a terrible idea to go for them over everything else, especially if you don't want to periodically look up the value of materias your retainers can gather.
@@Jolsn There you are right, but nearly everything in this game is gambling. Every chest you open after a Raid or Trial, every number you roll. If you want guaranteed returns it is good, but if you still want to level besides that I think Quick Exploration would be much smarter, because you probably would want that for faster leveling and then better rewards/loot as a level 90 compared to a level 50 retainer?
But yeah also good point :)
Yeah, QEs while leveling, FEs while logging off for the day, and then the specific one while at cap.
Leve warning:
If you want to farm for Heavensward Anima Weapons, your leve allowances are best invested in getting Amber-encased Vilekin (Necrologos leve in Ishgard) to trade in for Crystal Sand.
I didn't know this! Thanks!
... where were you when I finished all of the animas 😭
Ty Josln for the knowledge drop. It's always a welcome for this kind of info vids. I consider myself a veteran but from time to time, there's an activity that i forgot or don't know about that I need to do. 😊
I kind of forgot that the masked Carnivale does have weeklys, and so does the BLU log. Allied seals are so nice to have.
I tend to pick up the daily hunts whenever I'm near the board and just killing whichever targets happen to be on the way of doing something else, since they get a little red marker above their heads. Like randomly finding money in your pocket! :P
This video was already helpful for finding out that you can select when to use the teleport tickets. Thanks!
Thanks for posting this during maintenance, stuff to think about before the grind begins again.
This video was so helpful to get back into FFXIV after a year long break. I needed a quick reminder of what i needed to do outside of roulettes!
Dont have crafters leveled yet but its something im going to be diving into after i level my last and final combat job (minus the tanks).
Regarding the Aetherite tickets (free teleports), once you get to the Heavensward hunts you can buy the tickets for 5 centurio seals each. The hunting goes a lot faster too since you don't have to wait for any FATEs to pop.
Quick exploration I use with desynthing. The level 90 items can not only help you level it for little effort but the loop of seals makes it so I can get the crafting mats for free and the 80 gear can get you the mats used in skybuilder crafts.
Once you have access to the Stormblood, Shadowbringers, or Endwalker tribes, do the tribal quests once a day. Those are worth quite a bit EXP.
oh wow thank you so much for this! this information is going to help me immensly!
Definitely thought this was about farming on your housing plot, but still enjoyed the video. Need to level my BLU...
You saved me with the Teamcraft retainer info.
I find that the Leather (level 40), Boarskin and Peisteskin (50), and Wyvernskin and Dragonskin (60) also sell quite well, particularly the Leather maps. They rarely beat out the Gazelleskin or Kumbiraskin for me, but when you have eight characters on a server you've gotta diversify! Anyway, suppliers seem to sleep on the low-level maps.
Yep, the lower level maps often sell for more than the higher level ones, presumably because the newer nodes are being farmed more for other materials
And a lot of people assume that newest/highest whatever is most valuable and will sell best, at least in my experience, leading to a bajillion Ophio maps selling for
Honestly, popping 90 maps in parties is how I make my gil. I'll spend roughly 200k to MB O and K maps, and generally make about 850k to 1.3m in gil drops alone. Add in actual drops, A clothes, burning horns, etc, and thats and additional 1 to 2 mil. The best thing to use your daily map is on Piesteskins, which are 50, but have a decent chance to drop an unhidden leather map and those can go for upwards of 300k.
Edit: werdz is hard
There's S rank spawns associated with the Boarskin/Peisteskin & Wyvernskin maps, so that might drive some of the demand for those as well
You are the only yt creator that have notification enabled for me. Love your videos regarding ff14, wish you upload more, but i DO understand why you are not doing so :) Much love and respect!
thank you for this video jolsn*!
Since you didn't mention it, for Masked Carnivale, Blue Academy (RUclips Channel) does the walkthroughs of the weeklies.
I'd recommend adding Hunt Trains to the list. It's an obscenely easy way to get all the marks in the game as well as getting clusters that you can turn in for Materia.
This is the second channel with sakuraco sponsor I’ve seen. The other one being rachel&jun’s vlog. But kinda interesting choice taking it into FFXIV community.
this video is...incredible!!
Not me noticing the twilight town music from kh2 in the background 👍🏼
For retainers, you need their item level to be at a certain level in order to maximize returns from hunt ventures. It wasn't explicitly stated in the video so I thought that I would mention it. Generally the first craftable combat gear of an expansion is more than enough. For example, classical gear is what you can shoot for although you can include cheap rinasacita as well. A lot of those materials will also be very valuable once the expansion hits as the new leves will use them for when people level their crafters to the new level cap.
The weekly Verminion tournament in Gold Saucer is worth doing. It takes about 40 minutes to get your 15 wins against the NPCs and you'll earn 100K+ MGP.
I mean, I do hunt trains and chase S rank calls, so not only do I never pay for ports, but I also have so many crystals to turn in for materia that I have a slow, steady source of income, if I am smart about which materia I choose and when I sell them.
idk how it is for your server but the level 40 treasure maps sell for 3x-4x the price of any higher level one because they drop calfskin which itself goes for like 300,000+ gil (on my server at least)
Everything I'm about to say varies by server and how many other people try to sell the same items as you. And let's be honest, I'm probably far from optimal. For retainer ventures, I send mine on items that are commonly sought after such as acidic secretions, archeornis leathers, deepeye tears, mousse flesh, gelato flesh, gazelle hides, hoptrap leaves, vampire vine saps, lunatender blossoms and a few others. I sell a lot of different loot that sells for at least 500 gil/piece. It's important to diversify and have a lot of different items or else you oversature the market and your own inventory. For island sanctuary, I actually buy dyes instead of materia. The ruby red and cherry pink dyes in particular sell great for their cost, but I pick up all the others as well. (I did that for Firmament scrips as well, which wasn't covered in the video.) For gathering custom deliveries, I personally spend my gatherer scrips on fishing baits that I sell for big fish enthusiasts. The most commonly used big fish baits that can be purchased there and sell decently well are brute leeches, giant crane flies, blue bobbits and stonefly larvae, with a special mention to robber balls and baitbugs that are less profitable per scrip spent but still sell fast due to the large need for them.
For the MGP vouchers from squadron missions, the 15% bonus also counts for claiming tournament rewards. If you place in 8th in a Triple Triad tournament for example, you'll obtain 15% extra MGP from that reward. It gets extremely lucrative if you can get a 15% bonus of a first place reward (~150k MGP). Likewise for placing highly in Verminion tournaments.
Cute fish, very glub!
hello whats the site you use for retainer ventures ? sorry if i dont get the name on the video im a bad english speaker ^^'
I think it was Team craft retainer helper
3:55. I disagree, I make a lot of gil selling these end game items on the mb to people farming for the supply and provisioning achievements with each grand company. Rich players would rather not craft them. All the items get sold everyday so I assume it's them.
It is interesting!
Isnt that the "home-town-sound" from Zelda - Twilight Prinzess in the back? :D
It is the Ordon Village soundtrack, yep
One thing wrong: yoursquadron buffs overwrites the FC buff, not the other way round. and the buffs are usually better =]
still a great guide =]
Because of island sanctuary, I never had to spend gil on my crafting & gathering pentamelds
I use the Tsai tea method every week. It became so profitable for me that I even levelled some alts just to have more allowances and a bit more control on the mb prices
field exploration sucks for leveling but i guess if you don't plan on being on for 18 hours it can be useful otherwise Quick Exploration is the best for leveling just need to make sure to not Reassign Quick Exploration after you level up and sign up again to get the new amount of EXP for the level
I don't need to make gil these days but still enjoyed the video. I think if you don't want to do island sanc then just do the specials ones for 2 weeks to get the vouchers these still sell well on your server and on mine - Louisoix and take only a few minutes every 2 weeks which is acceptable to most players..
Leve Tea quest:
I did the math and I do them weekly, so I don't "loose" two allowences (6 each day... 100/6... you loose two)
I'm a pentamelded Instigator, so keep that in mind when talking about crafting it HQ.
Time needed for gathering and crafting: about 1 hour (only tea crafted in HQ not the pre-crafts)
Repairs and Teleport will cost you about 8k gil.
you get back the invested crystals and then some
this makes 42 leves per week so 126 tea (42 crafts)
gil profit (so income minus the telport and repairs) about 409k per week
I can't even be bothered to do weekly hunts. I just join a centurio hunt train every now and then and spend the centurio seals on aetherite tickets.
Dont feel the need to disclaim anything... This game has such an easy to take in atmosphere that any semblance of depth leaves me licking my plate for crumbs.
Things like, leveling BLU with Clionids and, soloing Gaius in Praetorium are just the tips of the iceburg for me, so keep going!
This is going to sound kinda crazy but after ~1 year of sending my retainers daily for quick explorations at least 2-8 times a day, I've never ever gotten a venture chest... How rare are them? D:
I heard the drop rate is like 3% but not entirely sure. Never getting one is pretty unlucky though
@@Jolsn I don't think I've ever seen one, or maybe just 1.. but that has to be a long time ago.
I've done over 700 Quick Explorations the last few months and never got one, so yeah no worries there xD
got 3 the last 14 days, yall unlucky as hell?
@@siiiuu777 Seems so yeah
Allegan coins, for doman
something I have literally never seen anyone talk about is that you can also get decent amounts of gil at certain venues. Often times they host giveaways (mounts or gil), casino games (blackjack, poker), death roll tournaments (I won 20mil from one a month ago), etc. Plus it's interesting to experience the RP scene for a little xD
As someone who has been playing this game for 3 years, im gonna be straight with you, no werkly or daily is worth it once you have a coiple million gil unless you really need to raid day one. Money is basically worthless in this game, only do what you enjoy doing and dont waste time on weekly/daily busywork unless you REALLY enjoy that.
Haha you fool, I already do most of these!
Easily the best Gil making video
teamcraft is god :)
Hunt trains are, without competition, the fastest way to grind tomes and nuts/seals. Everyone should do at least 3 Endwalker hunt trains per week.
How many RUclips accounts do you have? or are there just a couple of you similar voiced guys out there with a German accent playing FFXIV?
Squadrons still exist? I thought they were getting rid of them?
The moment you said "island sanctuary" I had a fight or flight reaction, but good video otherwise :')
No need for hunt weekly. Join Faloop and cap on nuts and tomes.
3 Allowances a day in 2 weeks should be 42 not 100
its 3 every 12 hours, so 6 a day
it takes 17 days to refill for 102 so if you do a quick 2 before it ticks overnothing is wasted
this is the reason the market place is broke cant even get iron rivets for cheap any more realyt just 0ne iron rivet cost 5000 gill last night wtf its truning in to wows market and that markets borked beyond repair
ppl are stupid in ff14..
You can buy Iron Rivets from vendors at a low price. Don't need to go to mb for that. Actually most low level items are sold by vendors, that's why mb is expensive for those, because only people who do not care to check things buy there.
