Currently Puppetmaster is my highest job at level 40 (Next three highest: 38 WHM, 25 DNC, 25 BLU.) and could participate in BCNM fights up to that level. Unfortunately Puppetmaster seems a bit limited for those fights because if you lose your automaton you're screwed. Basically I'm wondering if there are any NM fights a Puppetmaster of my level could stand a chance against and make a decent profit on the side. Preferably solo options because it may be hard to get a group, but don't leave out possible party fights I could participate in. (Note that I have now obtained the Soulsoother head for my Stormwaker frame, but have not yet put it to test in a full six man party.) | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 01-27-2008, 01:06 PM | #2 (permalink) | | RABBITGAME Keeper of Knowledge Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: Confirmed Posts: 2,896 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 84 Thanked 216x in 166 Posts Gil: 25,780 Bank: 9,810 Total Gil: 35,589 Donate | Re: Ways to make gil as PUP Try farming Ladybug Shells in the new expansion? You can turn them in as a repeatable quest for 3000gil per four, or sell them on the AH as crafting supplies. The drop rate isn't horrible, and there's millions of them out south of the tower in East Ronfaure [s]. You might be able to solo them at your level, but they're aggresive by sight and link. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 01-27-2008, 01:27 PM | #3 (permalink) | | Vault Dweller Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: FL Posts: 491 Style: Dark - Version 6 My Mood: Thanks: 83 Thanked 81x in 49 Posts Gil: 1,727 Bank: 30,387 Total Gil: 32,114 Donate | Re: Ways to make gil as PUP Ho Muu the Torrent?

The ones in East Ronfaure [s] are 44-47 and all of their weapon skills are very nasty. Amnesia would totally destroy my ability to fuction. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 01-28-2008, 03:06 PM | #5 (permalink) | | Pointy Stick Brain of Knowledge Join Date: Apr 2004 Location: Portland, OR Posts: 1,927 Style: Dark - Version 5 My Mood: Thanks: 428 Thanked 333x in 206 Posts Gil: 10,960 Bank: 42,067 Total Gil: 53,027 Donate | Re: Ways to make gil as PUP Originally Posted by Silent Howler | | Oh I don't think that will work.

It makes it a bit tough to farm them though since it can't be done continuously.
You could always farm sheep, rams and bees in Konschat. If you're lucky, you may just track down Stray Mary. If you've leveled Leathercraft at all, it helps a great deal.

Close fight ending in my lose. Ladybugs would only be worse.
Right now I'm mainly trying to find ways to make gil outside of farming in hopes that obtaining level 40 as Puppetmaster opens up more opportunties for me. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | All times are GMT -8.
