Re: Selphiie's FFXI Farming Guide

There's a lot of good information here, some of it is actually showing a lot of the easy and profitable, NPCable drops that players often take for granted. Farming is never a quick endeavor, but with some dedication its can still be profitable, particularly when you dovetail it into your crafting.

Re: Selphiie's FFXI Farming Guide

That is some awesome information. Thanks.

Re: Selphiie's FFXI Farming Guide

Nice, thanks!

I've been needing a change. I always do silk/beehive chips in east saruta and scorpion claws in the Maze (for making my arrowheads)

Also, might add if you are farming crawlers in Saruta, and you are subbing THF, you might as well steal a ball of saruta cotton when you run by a mandy. Stack of those sell really well, and I've have real good luck on the steal rates on them.

Re: Selphiie's FFXI Farming Guide

Thank you Selphiie that was very sweet of you to compile that for the new struggling players of Vana'diel! I hope you don't mind if I also put it in the New User section. ^^

Re: Selphiie's FFXI Farming Guide

Im currently looking into farming ideas that will be a little "newer" player friendly, because we all know theres nothing worse than a new players spamming /tells asking you for gil.

"Can i have 100kz plez i need a new weponz"

If you guys have anything to contribue as far as lower level players go that would be awesome and i won't hesitate to give you credit when i post it on the guide. ^^

Just kinda follow the guideline on the blog on the text box on the right~

Re: Selphiie's FFXI Farming Guide

I'd say silk threads, lizard egg, and other such items listed are certainly a big help! I remember getting very excited about collecting flint stones from the worms and then found out the return wasn't too hot. LOL It's nice to know what items will sell and not just bog down your inventory.

[Selphiie The Enchantress]

Re: Selphiie's FFXI Farming Guide

Yeah i just got a /tell saying its a great guide, but its not very low level friendly. But who really focuses on farming that low level. I guess it is nice exping in Sarutabaruta and getting silk to sell for better gear and stuff.

I don't want to say the guide is only for people who have /thf for TH, but it sure does help.

Hmm... low levels....*tries desperately to remember*

Re: Selphiie's FFXI Farming Guide

Guide is great

uhm....low level, wandering saplings for the grain seeds? There is a nice circuit of them in North Gustaberg sort of H/I -6 , I/J - 5. You just have to keep an eye if you are really low for the Quadav near Palborough Mines and the drop rate seemed pretty good.

Had a lot of fun trying some of these out. The only one that's been a bit >< is 3 hours of farming Nightmare bats, not a single drop even though we had TH1.

If you could get some screenshos if your adventures that would be awesome, im trying to get people who try the guide to get screenshots to put on the guide itself ^^

Re: Selphiie's FFXI Farming Guide

Great guide... just a suggestion though, you might want to add a separate section for fishing and H.E.L.M.... maybe eventually break it down by high level and low level...

also you might not want to add the guide navigation list to every page since the more you add to that the more people will have to scroll down after clicking a guide...

man where was this thing when I started playing...
