Do the Bastok Zinc Ore quest or the Windurst Yagudo Necklace quest a bunch of times.

I've heard the zinc ore quest is faster. Do it 25 times. Then Become a Tenshodo member in Jueno. There is an item there that will be 151gil when you have enough fame to do the quest. I forget what it is. You'll have to look it up on Allakhazam's.

Rice balls.

I did yagudo necklace quest 52 times with 30blm/thf and nothing else. Riceball in jeuno was 155 after doing the quest 52 times, i got utsusemi and tonko quest..
it was time consuming but i made like 25-30k in process of doing so...

and after reading other ppl's post about yagudo quest, it seems that u get a better necklace drop rate if u actually engage in fight compare to training mass yagudos and massacre em using -ga spells..

Here is what I did to give you an idea.

Note: This only took me 6 hours total and 40k-45k. This includes traveling and such from place to place.

First I set my HP in Bastok (I was already there). Zinc was 400gil each so I got on my mule and checked the price of the necklaces in Windy (100-300 gil 120 for sale).

So I traveled to Windy, got naked, and bought all 120 for around 25k-26k. The prices started at 100 then when there was only 20 left the price was 300 on my server.

So I did the quest 30 times. (7 times on each trip from the AH). Then I bought 28 Zinc ores from Windy AH and ghetto warp back to Bastok and did the Zinc Ore quest 7 times.

Then I went to Jeuno did the invite (1k-2k at AH). My rice balls were at 155. Headed to Norg with 12 Silent Oils (5k, you dont need this much). I got the Tonko quest but couldn't get the Utsusemi quest. So I bought 4x Northern Furs (2k each) and 4x (2k each) Easttern Pottery and did the quest for that. *Note: You do NOT have to do this, but I was lazy and didnt feel like running back Windy or Bastok. After that I had enough fame to do the Utsusemi quest.
