There isn't a good one. Sorry. I've been scraping together what extremely little I can and have looked into it multiple times, your best options are as follows:

Find a way to reliable solo/duo (or whatever) Oreo on D/VD and just spam it. Drop rate is low-ish but worthwhile. BST is great for this and SMN may be as well?

Mining is utter ***. Over like 30 hours of mining in the past year or so I've gotten 0. *** mining.

Old Bahamut / Ouryu are really the way to go, but they both are actually still level capped to 75 so good luck. I've never once been able to get people together to do it.

Most reliable way is to depend on gobbie box and the reset of the server doing random merit fights to do it and put it on the AH. Just make sure you're better at buying that everyone else.

I've been in Poland too long when I read this title as "Kurwa", although I find myself saying that a lot trying to procure Smithing ingredients too.

These fights aren't level capped you just can't use trusts. I went and soloed it recently for fun since I got a cloud evoker from uninvited guests.

Aren't the ENMs for the evokers still capped though?

Yes the ENM's are, but uninvited guests is uncapped. You're not gonna exactly be rolling in evoker's from it since it's limited to once a week but it's super easy to do and the evoker rate is not terrible.

Oh really? That's interesting.

But yeah last time I tried to solo a 75 cap ENM I got *** rocked. Would probably be doable if I took more than 5 minutes to get proper gear for it.

Depends on the one. I think a couple of them were soloable on the right job geared for back then but that might be a little tough today since F spending that much time gearing for 75 lol.

Actually, with the upgrades to nuking since then (elemental celerity, lower mp cost, high base dmg), and looking at the way equipment gets scaled to level cap, it might be doable with just a chatoyant staff and whatever regular ilvl gear. Maybe I should try ule ENM for lulz, I recall that dropping evokers the best.
