Re: Farming Tips {Can I have it?}

Farming tips:
1. Sub THF. Treasure Hunter gets you better results for the same amount of time spent.
2. Farm mobs that you can either one shot or kill while taking minimal damage. If you take too much damage from a fight, you'll have to spend time recovering. And time spent /healing is time not spent farming.
3. Make the most of your pack space. Some non-stacking items can be turned into stackable ones through low level crafting.
4. Always check NPC prices on everything you farm. You may be surprised to find that many items will NPC for as much as (if not more than) the going price on the AH. Why waste time/AH fees to AH something if you can just sell it to an NPC?
5. DON'T TRAIN FARM. Unless you have access to -gas, you aren't farming more efficiently by training mobs than you would killing them one at a time. Time spent by a mob chasing you is time that it isn't spending respawning. Even if you are a BLM with -ga spells, many BLMs claim that killing using a -ga reduces drop rates.

Re: Farming Tips {Can I have it?}

tabar beaks should be ok at that level
farm them for cock meat and giant bird feathers
the price on both items changes, but they are each generally ~15k/stack
sub thief for TH as LHL mentioned
and /thf also lets you steal, you can steal giant bird feathers from them to get the stack that much faster
good luck
