| Re: Easiest craft to 68 Holy Water isn't all that cheap; when I was in that range a stack of Light Crystals sold for a bit more than a stack of Holy Water. By contrast, Water Crystals are dirt cheap and Treant Bulbs are cheaper. Vitriol does sell, but I'd recommend hanging on to the Vitriol and skilling on Acid Bolt Heads. Then again, I have a Woodworking char who turns those heads into an unlimited supply of Acid Bolts for my {Marskmanship} RNG and THF jobs. I still have over a stack of quivers stowed away from this range of skillup. Between this and the supply of Blind Bolt Heads from lower levels, I haven't had to buy status bolts in some time. I'm looking forward to Sleep Bolt Heads as well since Sleep Bolts have good solo potential against the likes of worms (already soloed my RNG past a troublesome level on Qufim worms this way).
Yes, the bolt head synths can be a little bit of a pain, but you should be able to HQ Animal Glue by this point. The Bronze Ingots can be made without much trouble by camping the Smithing Guild for ores; Tin is rarely over 30 gil and I've never seen Copper exceed double digits.
