Zi Tah for fast NPC item's I would say it kinda depends on the amount. BCNM is always good Ni scrolls sell fast drop sucks obviously, PCC is another good one - ENM - ISNM really depends on the amounts and the return speed your looking at. Fast millions I would say ENM and GL, for 100k or so Zi tah bats. Best of luck to you ^^

If you have 10k imperial standing you can get a stack of 99 imp silver coins, sells for 80k on my server takes a day or 2 to sell unless none on stock :)saves on time spent farming but if u can get some friends 10k imp standing would be better used on an ISNM

I always hated farming... was generally much more boring than I cared to endure.

But that's not to say I didnt farm before I had all my crafting levels. When I did, I made use of Castle Oztroja (Conquistadors and surrounding Yags drop 100g/kill, and six level 40 ninjitsu scrolls, three of which are 20k+. The same mobs drop Oztroja Chest Key, up to 10k if gil. Steal mythril beastcoins and synth ingots to maximize profit).

Most popular thing to farm these days is Angel Skins... I'm too lazy to do it when I make more than enough in 20 minutes by the auction house... but a lot of my linkshell mates make good money farming those.

But really... best way to make money in this game is to level a craft, and utilize the in-game hobbies such as mining, logging, and chocobo digging.

I did leathers. Can farm sheep in K. Highlands. Bring along a few stacks of Dark Crystals, Tea leaves, and Distilled water. Turn all the skins into Sheep leather, and then sell the stacks for 8-14k a stack, depending on your server. It's a low level synth so you shouldn't have to worry about guild support if you utilize the moon and day. It's not massive money but it's fast and easy.

This is easy money but don't carry stacks of water, get a water tank and use it when needed.
