Under 40 Farming Guide.Follow

It's "Ascetic Ring", I think.

Thank you for starting this post, Legomike.
It will probably be invaluable for some newbies. =)

Nice thread..but you don't have to advertise on other forums..just repost this on main forum or something...

Grain seeds from saplings can go from 40k to 20k. Drop rate isnt the best.

Beehive chips, I HQ these for Beeswax, 40k a stack.

Flint stones, I'm currently lvling up on these and making glass fibre, which go into prism powders, which sell for 25k a stack.

Sheep leather, made from Sheepskin sell for 25k if you synth them at lvl1(or 2) leathercraft.

Another litle tip that is sort of related. Saplings also drop vegetable and herb seeds, which can be used to grow your own fire crystals. Brass pots you can buy from a NPC in Bastok Mines for ~1000g.

Herb Seed + Brass Pot = Bay leaves or Fire crystals
Vegetable Seed + Brass Pot = La Thaine cabbage or Fire crystals
For both: Feed Water crystal

I used to try to only plant, feed and harvest on Waterday, but results seem random. From 10 pots (which is the max your Moogle can handle), sometimes all I'd get is bay leaves, or my very best harvest was 153 Fire Crystals. Now I just plant and feed on random days. One thing though, don't harvest on Darksday. I always seem to have very bad results when I do. Could be coincidence though. Try to harvest on Waterday if possible, seem to get the best result from that. It is also worthy to note that Herb seeds get "ready" faster than vegetable seeds, in terms of feeding and harvesting. I try to checck my plants twice a day.

If you're wondering why Grain seeds go for so much, it is because they are used to grow Tarutaru Rice, a essential ingredient in sushi, which is often sold out at the guild very quickly.

Grain Seed + Pot (I used Brass) = Tarutaru rice or Lightning crystals
Feed: Earth crystal

Planted, fed, and harvested on random days. It is important to note that grain seeds die very quickly if you don't check them often! Faster than any other seed if I recall. So if you try them, check them often.

Forgot about the Wild Onions. A useful ingredient for cooks. You can also sell treant bulbs (primarily in Bastok for Alchemists) for couple thousand. Every little bit helps.

BUMPing again for the lazy ass people

Umm....30K a stack, not per thread, I believe.

As for Wild Onions you can also farm them off of Goblin Thugs in the Horoto Ruins. They go for something like 10K a stack on Garuda.

YOu can also turn your sheepskin into sheep wool if you'd like to continue leveling leathercraft after you cap at 2 from leather. 1 WIND (which are super cheap now) + 2 sheepskin will take you to cap 4. And it sells not bad at the AH. Haven't looked at the prices lately.

You forgot to add Saruta Cotton. Can be stolen from Mandragora in E./W. Sarutabaruta; Pygmaioi in Tahrongi Canyon; Sylvestre in Buburimu Peninsula and it drops in Tahrongi Canyon and Buburimu Peninsula. Currently this item sells for about 18k or so a stack on Alexander.

Something else to note is when farming in zones with an Outpost and it is in control of your home country there is a Merchant NPC there that you can NPC stuff to. Or in the case of Bub. Penn. there's plenty of Merchants inside of the nearby Mhaura.

You forgot Funguars of various levels:

Ronfaure: Rare, but they exist.
Fort Ghelsba: a Lv10 can solo these NP, they rate EP.
Jugner: a Lv40 can kill these np, might have to rest too much though. Lv45+ recommended.

They drop (and you can steal from them) Sleepshrooms which go for a decent amount too.

Also, if you go Raptor Farming, BEWARE of Waraxe Beak, that NM that can spawn near the raptor area. That will absolutely flatten you.

Forget Pashow Marchlands. (At least on the Quetzlcoatl server) Lowballers are ruining the game. Can't even get a decent price for bloods, (I heard they were over 100k once) and now that everyone and their brother/sister are POS hacking into the zone. It, well, is just plain bad. Freaking RMT's or tards selling Maple Sugar in Windy for 1300 per stack. That's just insane.

If you're level 50 or higher, please go somewhere else.

Nice tips, but everyone seems to want instant gratification and fast gil, and there's no such thing. Have patience, do some work and quit whining.

Well, that's my rant. Do your own homework, find your own way. Go kill something. And for Pete's sake DO NOT SELL FOR LESS to sell faster. It hurts all of us.

add a "be patient" on marlboros/ochus etc. I think the nerfed drop rates on both tentacles and headbands. they used to drop much easier than they do now. Raptor skins i think too need a be patient, as i rarely see them sold.

in carpenters landing, a "be patient" on flytrap enemies that drop flytrap leaves. They do infrequently but the leaves vend very high. Carpenters landing also has tigers, beetles, fungaurs, and thunder/water elementals. Its often never camped, as opposed to the other zones, and can be reached easily from jugner or even northern sandoria.

There needs to be a caveat however. A lot of these items sell very low, on my server, often under 1 or 2k a stack. If you see something you want to farm from this list, check the price on the auction house first.

The farther away from the towns the area is the harder, check the conquest map for help.
Its the same for all towns...
Windy,Saruta,Canyon,Mountain
Sandy,Ron,Plateau,Jugner
Bastok,Gutsaberg,Highland,Marshland

If you farm Sleepshrooms I'd recommend tasking some antidotes as that poison move they do is a bitch..

lol thanks for the sticky
