I'm actually amazed by people who have a lot of 75's myself, but my main question is how on earth did they manage to get the gil to gear each job?

*THAT* is my million dollar question. Especially to the owners of Salvage gear. How do you do it, really?


I can understand some characters being able to do it, but with the amount of ppl that are on with so many jobs...maybe they have a sexy party with their ls leaders?

lmao idk, 90% of my best gear is ra/ex, or i have it crafted from a friend/ls member

Lots and lots of endgame... most shells give out paychecks every so often. I've only dipped my toes in the water with endgame tbh, with Sky being my most attended event, then Dynamis, and lastly Einherjar (sp). Spose if I was sticking around longer i could expect a paycheck from my dyna-shell, Einherjar (sp again) shell broke so yeah.. Got ONE paycheck from skyls (was rather small since im still new). So its possible to make a good deal of money just by attending these events

edit: Also, ENM, find a good group of people (can even low-man so of em) and do em, they're super annoying though i must say. I've only personally done the Hagun one... once. So my experience is minimal

My best gear is rare/ex too...it's called AF armor. ; ;

Yeah, I used to be in Dynamis shell that did the monthly payout too. I admit that I miss getting money. The shell I'm in now doesn't do payouts. >.>

I'm still weighing the advantages of this shell over one that does payouts, but it does make you cringe a bit when you hear that your friends just got paid 400k for attending events while you're still broke and waiting in line for a piece of AFv2.

Your stockpile of Yoohoo and Starcrunch in the cabinet is directly proportional to the amount of 75 jobs you have.

yea and some shells will sell dyna drops, you come in lot and we buy glass so your out.

thats only if the majority agrees and then those ppl get a cut, and nobody is putting points on it.

almost happened the other day in my shell, which i was glad it didnt drop. lol i'm new so i dont have that many points to lot, and i wasnt gonna waste them just b/c they wanted to sell something that should be free lot.

Yeah all my r/ex stuff I can thank my LS for. They are extremely helpful and started doing sky and sea for the linkshell just so people could have gear they thought they would never have aka my Shura Togi/Byakko's Haidate.

I've been playing for 3(?) years give or take and have 3 75 jobs. Two mage jobs and DNC. Gearin em up wasn't really much of a problem. Just bash a Elvaan guy over the head and steal their wallet. I'm in the process of picking out my 4th job but torn between a few jobs.

Oh it's not that the fight has proven too difficult; it's simply getting people together. I notice that there is this deal with people where if they've gone past a certain event, they usually won't do it for other people unless they are a) friends, b) ls mates, or c) getting paid 50k per person.

Pretty much this. Not that many people are willing to help anyone out unless they get something from it.

This is true. My LS was just *** around on Promathia. 5/6 people were weakend the whole fight from mulitiple deaths from fighting while weakend (including the nin kiting him) and Prishe just beat the hell out of him while the WHM healed her. It was insanely fun though.

I've already completed AN and all. xP I'm currently helping two of my friends get Sea one is stuck on Oryu and the other is stuck on Three Paths. Only problem I'm having is finding the time where our group is on at the same time to get it done.

I have 3 75's kinda... lol Got Smn to 75 first because my friends thought it'd be a good idea. This was btw at NA release.
Monk to 30 first, which was the job I 'really' wanted to level. Then whm to like 20, smn to 40, lots of breaks and lvling other jobs, whm to 40, smn to 75. Took like 2 years for Smn to hit 75 b/c I wasn't really focused on it.

Then I took whm to 75 and got a few merits to help various shells and absolutely hated it. >.< And my old Limbus shell making me come whm often even after I sold my gear was annoying. So I ended up delvling i in events and such to 74, like 10k tnl to 75.

And now I'm leveling Samurai to 75 from where I had stopped earlier at 61. Eventually I'll probably level Pld to 75 so I can come as a tank and our Pld in out little group can come Blm.

Once a whm, always a whm.

It's best not to let people know you have whm 70+ because they will most likely take advantage of it. Unless you have an obvious better geared job.


This pretty much covers certain jobs. If you have Bard, hell you could even have a E.Body War with Ridll guess what job they'll have you go on the most? Yep Bard.

I just became a Novio Earring BLM so that pretty much nixes me ever going RDM to events unless I'm tanking on my RDM. And DNC at events doesn't really do much unless you're fully merited.

WHM, BLM, SMN, RDM 75. DNC 50 and PLD 45. I have an addiction to jobs that are able to heal. So far except DNC, I've main healed on all of my jobs. On PLD I do more healing than the actual mages.

Not a big fan of SCH, but I'm sure after PLD and DNC, it will be next. I'd level BRD, but.. you don't heal so much, and I wouldn't be able to say no when asked to come as BRD 98% of the time. I struggle enough with RDM as is. I would rather main WHM or SMN. SMN is definitely my best geared job..

Ls I'm in works that if you don't lot for any of the rar/ex stuff, or other equip-able items, you get money drops. So that's how I got my gil to take care of my jobs so far.
