| Junior Member  |    Just hit 50, now the challenge begins
Ok, I just hit 50 and traded in my item to move onto 60. I have a ton of leftover velvet cloth that did not sell on the AHs, but blacks capes go like hot cakes... so. After that though, what does anyone suggest to go from 55-60? I heard green ribbons, but I have 0 silk cloth. Suggestions?

Going from memory, this is what i did: 50-53 Silk cloth 53-57 Karakul Cloth (high cost of material usually, but tends to break even) 57-62 Green ribbon/hunter's cotton/silk headband 62-72 Black Choco Fletchings (I think) 72-78 Rainbow thread/cloth (I think) 78-82 Puk Fletchings 82-88 Wamoura Silk (at 85.5 now) 88-90 Wamoura Cloth (maybe; is lossy, but perhaps not as bad as the alternatives) 90-100 *pain* |

Like Pebbles pointed out it's hard to get around silk and the path she posted is probably the best one you could take. Hunter's cloth is a good alternative to green ribbons, but once you get close enough to Hunter's Cloth, you need bonecraft sub of 21 and hard to find Carapace Powder, which you will probably need to make yourself. You'll also need a godawful amount of cotton thread. But it's still somewhat cheaper than silk. You still have to work your way close enough to it though. So I suggest silk cloth to 53 anyway and then make as many ribbons as you can out of it. There are alternatives, but most end up being more pricey anyway. If you want to sift through the recipes to decide what you want to do about it yourself, go here: http://ffxi.somepage.com/recipedb/cl...ft-synth-1.php

If you have a job that can easily solo karakuls (unlikely due to chigoes), you can synth thread from the skins too (caps at 54). This would mean karakul cloth is quite profitable (but also very slow, as you'll need heaps of threads), but you wouldn't have a stock of silk cloth for ribbons later. | |
