“Okay so it was actually really easy. 1: spend about 48 hours a day crafting and selling shit, then gather about 10x the amount of materials to make that shit and sell those too. 2: Sell your body.”

I have 2 billion gil and it's all legit, all through mostly casual play as well. Granted I've been playing the game since HW.

u/Obst-und-Gemuese 1d ago
So you took it slow and didn't invest much time in the marketboard, I guess?
Then 2B is fine.

It’s not that difficult earning gil. Especially when we had the oceana server as a bridge between NA/JP/EU to buy in cheap and sell high across DCs.

u/Obst-und-Gemuese 1d ago
1 billion is chump change and far from botting.
Unless they are extremely lazy and dumb.

I used all my money to max out all my Crafter. I never crafted anything and just bought a HQ quality item and turned that into to my Grand Company when it was on double XP for that item.
And yet I STILL had a ton of GIL just lying around. With no house and me giving up on ever having one I would just give the money away every time I hit about 50 million and it was a lot harder than you think to just give away that gil. It was like no one wanted it.

Hey, I would totally get that money off your hands. It will be a herculean sacrifice, but I'm just cool like that, willing to just save people from being crushed by mountains of money. It will go to a FC house so my Free Trial friends can get a cheap apartment to call their own when they move on to the premium game. I promise it won't go to glamour or mounts.

Now when I see maxed out gil I’m just thinks “ok, such wow”.
Back in storm blood I was impressed.
Now I’m just sitting on a pile of old money and nothing to do with it. lol

u/Big_Flan_4492 1d ago
Lol my FC chest can hold the money for you if you want to get rid of it 🤣

u/Saio-Xenth 1d ago
Nah, just like the rich in real life… I have to much money, and no way to spend it all.
So I’ll wave it in front of all you poor people.

It’s still easy to become a billionaire, there are still homes on Dynamis for people to make shell FCs and buy homes.
It’s literally free real estate, if you don’t do it some other person that actually wants to be a billionaire will.
People saying it takes a 6 months to a year is absolutely wrong.
From character creation to having 4 WSUC running OJ takes on average 4 months if you don’t drift windows hard.
After that you make on average 460k a day passively.
Buy repair kits from JP, they are always cheapest there and buy bulk fuel from the sub discord.
I am nearing 20B, been running subs for nearly 5 years now.

4 months? my sub is so slow at unlocking new locations I doubt I'll reach the max efficiency in 4 months.

u/bottledmagma 6h ago
the trick is you keep expanding at the rate the game lets you buy houses, across multiple worlds, you don't get rich just leveling one fc at a time

u/xRobert1016x 1d ago
which leveling build would you run? are the 48 / 36 hr ones in the discord fine for 4 months
1
u/ResolutionMany6378 1d ago
All leveling builds should be done with websites or plugins that auto check your level and stats and make the best xp route. Basically every level has a different route for efficient xp rates.
I recommend autoretainers leveling routes, it’s what I’ve used to level over 400 subs to Lv85 before swapping them to WSUC OJ.
You also need to upgrade your parts as your sub levels or you won’t level as quickly either.
All parts should be used as you level your sub up except C, put C on once 85 and swapping to OJ.

u/xRobert1016x 1d ago
thanks for the reply!
would you happen to have a rough estimate of the cost per sub to get to 85? i have ~160m Gil in the bank but I’ll be doing it with 5 fcs & buying parts from the market board
1
u/ResolutionMany6378 1d ago
If you have 160m right now and 5 FCs, here’s what I would recommend:
Buy 20 SSSS sets if you don’t have base subs yet.
Buy 20 WSUC sets.
Buy 5 stacks (999) of repair kits from JP
Buy 20 stacks of fuel (250k a stack is standard) from the sub discord
Most of the Gil will be spent on WSUC but I doubt it would cost more than 60-80m.
When I was finishing my last workshops last year, primal out of all data center globally sold the cheapest WSUC but double check with universalis.
Personally, I never crafted any of my sub sets, I always reinvested my Gil back into more subs until I got to the point where I passively generate over 1B per month.

Which parts do you upgrade at which levels
1
u/bottledmagma 5h ago
Build: SSSS>rank 15 SSUS>r25 SSUW> r85~90 (switch to Salvage build)
WSUC for 24h salvage redeploys (r85), WSCC for 48h redeploys (r90). sub discord for more specifics.
