Final Fantasy 13 - Gil Farming

[itachi14k]

mission 24 gets you a seed worth 6k every battle. and the mission and mark are next to eachother. so 6k every 15 seconds or so isnt bad. cashing in after awhile got me 360k

[edwardwhitsett82]

P.S.

not all the time you get gold nuggets from the gui's

(i usually get dark matter even thought i have collector cat. wierd)

[edwardwhitsett82]

roles i have were

syn/syn/syn

sab/sab/sab

rav/rav/rav

com/com/com

med/med/med

sen/sen/sen

cast haste then switch to sent quick cus of quake then switch to sab and daze him. while he is dazed buff yourself while keeping his stagger up then go for rav till 999.99% stagger then finish him with com role.

If his stagger goes away and you havent kill him yet use either snow or fang's limit. If he's till alive then repeat the steps.

[edwardwhitsett82]

I have an optional gil farming technique i use. In the Archylte Steppe-Eastern Tors right by the save file before the 3 shaolong guis. if you go to your right and up that hill ull see a shaolong gui. kill it then go straight down and you will see another one. kill him too and go back to where you was and that same shaolong gui you just killed respawn. When you have 3TP i would fight the adamantoise with the summon for fast results.

reconmended strongest players, collecter cat. and rest strength.

[StarkPryce]

as poor quality as this video is, it's actually quite helpful. thanks. hopefully youtube can pay you so you can buy a capture card or the PVR.

[tsuna50]

how do u get chocobo..

[BARRERA2U]

@tsuna50 complete a mission though i do not know what mission is needed to be complete though...sorry. It should be below 20, that all i know.

[nirvanafan64]

@tsuna50 do mission 14

[tsuna50]

@nirvanafan64 ty for replying.. i already done it.. cus u guys late reply me :D and i find it myself how to get :D.. ty very much

[MrSomers12]

you can get more with the method of killing the mark on mission 63 as it can drop a platinum ingot or "trap" and you will get a gold nugget each time you do this

[TehDez504]

Works better when you have a lil money already

[danie2332123]

I'v beat the game, but im really low of gil. i need like 3,500,000 gil to get this game's platinum : ( and i don't think this guide good for me tho...

[Philthified]

@danie2332123 saaaaaaaaaaaame so much shit to buy

[danie2332123]

@Philthified So, you found the solution?!

[Philthified]

@danie2332123 just keep farming plats -_-

[midtownstunts]

Shit now i need to read what ortiz2288 posted -_-... and obviously it's 4 pages back.

[MineCraftGaveYouAids]

@ortiz2288 I COuld Help But Laugh You Stupid Faggot Obviously Its Not Fake If Everyone Can Do This.. You Cant Cause It Dosent Work For Faggots Try Pulling You Bf's Dick Outa Your Ass And Then Maybe It Will Work.

[Ezekiel62591]

Teleport doesn't work for me.... It just brings up the quest and says "You have already completed this mission. Would you like to reattempt it?"

[jsh020]

@Ezekiel62591 you sure your using the right mission marks, you need to have beaten at least 2 of the YELLOW missions to teliport

[Ezekiel62591]

@jsh020 I found out how to do it... Whats not mentioned in the video is you have to have done all the quest 1-9 at least to even use teleport number 9. I had followed another guide that showed how to complete quest 14 without actually doing every single mission.

[NaruTurd100]

does it work for x box 360 too?

[veedoll100]

FKN trolls everywhere.

[ammarjin]

bring bk the old FF games this sux ass

[ortiz2288]

FAKE N GAY

[hazuki1986]

@ortiz2288 lol really?!? was that necessary?

[UmbranAlchemist]

@ortiz2288

keep perpetuating that stereotype bro

[purebone00]

@ortiz2288 do u even play the game?

[SilenceSilver]

I found an entite ring on the chocobos. So lucky. 8D

[elcondonerogrande]

where is this place?? just can't find it u.u

[Darkwarrier91]

Very helpful thanks for the tip!

[uaechibi]

how to get chocobo ?

[dnl303]

@uaechibi cieth waystone misions 1-12

[Kirronable]

@dnl303 1-14 actually

[Oreo4lif31]

i ran this route and got nothing

[2SmallRoom4Ego]

There's also Entite Ring(60k each) and Tetradic Tiara(40k each)

[Lockehart1289]

thanks, I'll try this out once I'm able to ride chocobos

[seancpcp]

Yes, this is an awesome tip for attaining gold... Thanks...

[snowmanshow12]

ill make sure to use this method

[indieglee261]

what i like is that your not a sore loser. like when its not something really good your not all like "gosh darnit!"

[oChrisRedfield]

Thanks for the vid :)

[305Navi]

How can 8 people thumbs down this nice helpful video guide?

Lol, maybe b/c the chocobo wouldn't let them hitch a ride...

Nice vid once again

[305Navi]

Thx for the vid my friend. I had no idea i can dig up treasure with the chocobo.

[TiMickQC]

you can skip those dig sequences by pressing start, then select.

[MrCheeseball98]

all I have to say is your a fucking genious dude, Thank you so much, I'm trying to get the platinum trophy and all I need is treasure hunter, and omfg, It is hard, but now, it is gonna be wayyy easier to upgrade all my shit, once again thank you.

[CriministerTV]

@MrCheeseball98 same as me lool

[92cjizzle]

wut do u use 2 upgrade ur weapons?

[SpicyKiddo]

@92cjizzle If you want to upgrade your weapon, all you need is buy some Organic components, and make the multiplier of the equipment to x3, then buy many good mechanic components (perfect conductor?), and use it to upgrade that equipment in one shot, so that the exp of all the item will be tripled. This video, will help you get the money, i've tried it and it really great !

[supersnow17]

I just got 3 freakin gold nuggets! In a row! First time ever so that's like what..180,000 gil or something? Lol

[Bladetrini10]

nevermind it, quest 17 was easy

[Bladetrini10]

is this possible to do without taking mission 17, will it just take a little longer time, as i will save and reload the game?

[exo8th]

fckin awesome dude

[spaakbeen]

i did not do mission 17 i went further with the story line can i still go back to this place?

maybe a stupid question but i realy dont know

[112ibo]

@spaakbeen at end of the game...u can return back to this place and do all missions...actually thats the only thing u can do after u finnish the game

[MarksmanSpec93]

Easiest gil farming is probably a circuit like this--no combat, quick, and very effective. As for the easiest CP leveling, that would have to be the Behemoth and Megistherian (I think that's the name...). Fastest ways to carry out that fight are to take two Commandos with launch and a good ravager. Target the Behemoth first and launch him within the first 4 seconds or he'll full heal. Then simply pick off the other and you're done. 12 to 18 seconds, 6600 CP. Run up the hill to reset, repeat.

[nagr0m1234]

fyi. i love this guide! found a ribbon, 2 gold nuggets, 2 gold dust, and 3 stones for weapon upgrades after just 3 trips (about 12 minutes)

thx for sharing. now to keep going..

[14justinmiranda]

chocobo  r so beautiful

[sainfan21]

How do u get the gysahl wreath trophy

[3N3MYBOATSPOTTED]

@sainfan21 get 20 chocobo treasure digs

[crankyboiy]

this game would be awesome if only they replaced the black dude with better physical characteristic like barrett and changing the main character to a guy. Might as well remake FFVII...

[vinneh89]

@crankyboiy Sazh is awsome, And Lightning is the best. You suck. =]

[codfaction]

I have found the best leveling to be the behemoth king and the megistotherian as they give you 6600 but i have growth egg. I kill the oretoises for Trapezohedrons as i have had 3 after killing about 15. and get my money either from mission 24 or at eden hall kiling soldiers and sacrifices.

[Vampstar27]

very nice! I'll be sure to try this method :)

[spritersie]

thanks man, i make much progress using this guide.

by the way, entite rings seem to sell nicely aswell. so if you have any doubles make sure to sell them, they go away for 60.000 gil.

[9omi]

i am missing some accesaories. there is one particular one "champion's badge" which i cant find . as guide says its availablity in chpt 12 siren park . but i have checked in diffrent save points i don't have it. can you please tell me if you have that. and if it is available from any upgrade because guide diesn't tell you that.

[sakura4994]

Now, making his way to the ring- at 6'6 and 238 pounds- from Hollywood, California.... GOLDDUST!

No, wait, wrong game. lol, Nice find. I didn't realize you could reset the digs by teleporting.

[lostjustice100]

i am going to do this i am on chapter 10

[hateisstrength100]

haha people keep saying u can only get one gold nugget and cra like that cuz that one ma on the internet says so well......my one dig just got 2 plush chocobos, 2 gold nuggets, and gold dust :) i was starting to believe u couldnt get more than one gold nugget it really surprised me lol........it really is a great method for gil making even if it does get really dead but when it gets like that and boring i take a break by farming gil from moonblossem seeds...it kees things entertaining lol

[4thKyuubi]

Is there any way you can farm gil by upgrading weapons then selling them for a higher price?

[TheAdzster5310]

@4thKyuubi The Only Thing you could do is upgrade a weapon to tier 3 starred and then dismantle it, if you don't get 3 traphezadrons then just quit and try again hope this helps

[Bufurzone]

This Final Fantasy SUCK big time, 'cuz you don't have enough gil, you can't upgrade your weapon easily!!!

[TheBoyNextDoor7002]

@Bufurzone

I also think it's the shortest Final Fantasy game ever.

[Bufurzone]

@TheBoyNextDoor7002 Well for me it's like playing for life time!!!

[TheAdzster5310]

@Bufurzone My Hours is 73 : 45 : 34 and i'm not maxed yet and i haven't traphezadron yet so no biggy

[Bufurzone]

@TheAdzster5310 And Iam stuck in chapter 11 to gain more exp,farm for more gil and upgrade their weapon,HUH!!!

[TheAdzster5310]

@Bufurzone For CP I'm doing the wolf - bememoth battle with a growth egg.

For Gil I'm doing mission 24 which gives 6,000gil Also , the smaller turtles drops scarliete and gold dust They only have 500k hp. Also I use the method in vid. To Upgrade your weapon just make lots of gil then buy the upgrades. If you do not know which catalyst (upgradey thing ) e.g traphezadron go to ff-13.info/catergory/weapons/ reply if need any more help

[9omi]

@TheAdzster5310 nice, i am doing treasuser hunter trophy and i am missing some accesaories. there is one particular one "champion's badge" which i cant find . as guide says its availablity in chpt 12 siren park . but i have checked in diffrent save points i don't have it. can you please tell me if you have that. and if it is available from any upgrade because guide diesn't tell you that.

[9omi]

@9omi got it by going back to eden hall and then to siren park :)

[TheAdzster5310]

@9omi Congrats !!



[9omi]

@TheAdzster5310 thanks :P

[9omi]

@TheAdzster5310 i did and doing Gill Farming by beating Admantorties and Admant cild, which gets me gold dust 1500g and Platinum ingot 150,000 g . got ultimate weapons and got around 30 odd upgrades. but this trophy really need some gill grinding.

[TheAdzster5310]

@9omi Yes, I am not maxed yet , So Big Tortoises are too difficult for me. I have 3 Level 5's On Each Charcter and a Level 4 . Probably Will Be Maxed Out By Tommorow

[9omi]

@TheAdzster5310 simple tech is to summon idolone and then keep on using debuffing power "Death" at level 3 or 4 can be learnt by vanile. when you summon Adamatortise fells downa dn then you use"Death" .if admantortise get up just retry the battle.

[Bufurzone]

@TheAdzster5310 What's growth egg?

[TheAdzster5310]

@Bufurzone Doubled CP Per Battle If You Can Defeat Mission 55 .

[khrdl]

so u want me dig in every place !! nice ! that will make me want to destroy the cd more .

[hyde667]

This is awesome!

[Abez987]

Is there any gil cap or can you farm gil as much as you want?

[supersnow17]

sometimes the treasure looks like one of the bacugan things lol

[powerblade14]

3:42 f***king cactuar! STAY OF MY CHOCOBO!!!

btw: this vid is very helpfull...

[L4dyPaiNe]

just a little tip the chocobo will turn its head in the direction of the treasure if you get lost

[KYgelly]

@L4dyPaiNe Thanks for the tip! Did not know that.

[Sexalize]

@L4dyPaiNe cool tip bro

[goopersosis]

so do u have to complete the game before u can start continuously doing this mission?

[ademetal]

@goopersosis no just 2 missions number 14 and number 17 but you have to defeat missions 1 through 12 tomake 14 and 17 appear.

[keseke1]

hi i have a quistion if i cleard all chocobo truegre spots how can i rest the spots plz teel me

[MidlightLucidon]

@keseke1 if you had actually watched the video you would have seen that you reset it by teleporting.. derppp

[jakeprobst]

This game would be so good IF it had more side-quests, optional BOSSES, Ultimate weapons that are hidden and are actually ULTIMATE, and the ability to control every member of your party.

[y0k03lf3n]

@jakeprobst Like... The titnan's optional tournament thing? Or like the mission marks... Or Vercigetorix thing or... the 3 tornberries...?

[IllTeachYouGuitar]

speeds up the most boring achievement xD ty

[Spartanll7x]

Thanks for this guide. You are awesome. 

[TheManners888]

did u know that the chocobo points it's head toward the treasure.

[hatazhi]

how did you get chocobo to that place my chocobo always spawns in the first place in mission 14 =( please help mee

[bobdagoat]

Page 2:

Then when fighting the big guy, if you can survive it let ur summoner be buffed and debuffed. secret spell hit accessory buffs from equiping 3 things of the same type work too. Let your summon keep knocking out the dudes legs and spam death (oh yeah you need her for death not to cast the summon lol). death originally has 1/100 hit chance but as you level / equip the right things it goes to 1/10 or something. Every 2 kills youl get a stone worth a stupid amount of gold. phew rant over.

[bobdagoat]

Page 1:

Now i remember, to make 1,000,000 gil in the space of 10 mins, is it 1,000,000? i dunno it could be 100,000,000 for all i know. you need to get pritty high level for it to work easyor whatever it is. then you need to make the setup, summoner, buffer, debuffer. I think you have to use that girls summon valeria? whoever shes called. anyways you fight the big adamantoise (not the small ones and they cant be the buffed versions after u complete allmost every mission)

[bobdagoat]

Not being funny but uba slow way of farming lol. cant remember now but i think i make 1,000,000 gil in around 10 minutes. k thx bye :D

[gigas81]

Cieth stones that are laying down on the ground will stay that way until you beat other missions. Also those people that complain not getting certain items; you do realize that its RANDOM. If it wasn't then the game would be easy. If you want a easy game go play peggle. just saying.

[desertsn0wball]

Nevermind



[desertsn0wball]

why is it that some ceith stones arn't hovering? do i have to do all the missions?

[DonatoXIII]

This is a great vid for getting the trophy too. Nice upload

[tonydanteye]

for those asking.. you have to get to chapter 11 first. then you just complete the cie'th stone missions 1,2,3,7,12,13, 14... the reward for the 13th mission is the chocobo. google or search youtube some people have vids up.

[ViskEEE]

Fantastic vid! I just got 2 gold nuggets and 1 plush chocobo in a single run. I've beaten statistics!

[nzbitemyhead]

Bro how the fuk do u get the chogobo birdy thing there coz ive been walking around pulse looking for the fuckin thing pls some1 comment bak Rly need help

[PS3Angeloutcast]

@nzbitemyhead ya need to do mission 1-13 to unlock mission 14 complete mission 14 and you'll be able to ride them and they'll spawn throughout the game

[cfreeman88m]

the battle system made me think of star ocean for the ps2 in some aspects

[CrazyAwesomeBJ]

Chocobos looked WAY cuter in FFX. Thumbs up if you agree.

[ranma6899]

do you have beat the game ,to play that

[ultimatemama]

dude fucking awesome

[Jau13]

dat voice

[clerk123]

cool vid. how do i get to ride on the chocobos?

[PS3Angeloutcast]

@clerk123 complete mission 14

[Aadrio]

Nice circuit dude!

[YounGNiGz187]

i loving the supper 3D chocobo's

[AJ4710]

I did mission 17 but it unlocked teleport to Oerba-Village Proper. Which one unlocks the central expanse?

[CelestialLetum]

@AJ4710 Are you for real? You need to do the mission for where you want to teleport too.

[PhiledelphiaEagles]

Guys, just a hint. If you can't teleport, you can just SAVE AND RELOAD your game, and the respawns will work!

Excellent video Chouapa.

[BaStAgE]

good system..one of the best ive seen..

[joshua182th]

thxs i tryed it again n i got a gold nuggets,gold dusts ,and flussh plumes.

[RatedX666]

Omg thank you so much. Such a plain simple explanation cheers mate worked wonders :D btw awesome commentary.

[joshua182th]

i followed ur video and nothing happened, was it cause i was in the middle of a mission.

[xXOpkillerXx]

Nice run, I'm using it alot but added something to it, for everybody who can affort adamantortoises, in the middle of the run (After "unlocking" (shao)long gui's) there's one close enough to the other chocobo shown in the vid, which can drop traps (Catalyst for tier3 weapons) or platinum ingots (150k gils), so it's really worth the time to kill it and continue the main run right after. It's less consistant too by the fact that you can do some fighting And riding.. :)

[sodazman]

Good guide! I've maxed out the Crystarium now and have a full tier 2 weapons and need Trapezohedron, Dark Matter and shit loads of gil to make some progress.

[OneAntagonist]

that looks fun haha

[MrSarni]

I done mission 17 but i havn't unlocked the teleport point, any suggestions why?

[heroesisgreat]

WTF gran pulse lags sooo much

on my xbox its bullshit -.-

[blazinrowan]

this is so shit ive dun this like 20 times i got 1 gold nugget pls what am i doing wrong

[PhiledelphiaEagles]

@blazinrowan

You are doing nothing wrong. It's all about luck and RNG of items appearing.

[blazinrowan]

0:50

[juki012]

I did this like 2hrs ago and I got the gold nugget at my first dig, talk about lucky

[Eyedunno]

@juki012

No, you always get a gold nugget on your first dig. No luck involved.

[juki012]

@Eyedunno I see

[dolladj]

this really helped me out after one run i was able to beat a king behemoth

[NubianQueen413]

That worked fantastically. Thank you. :)

[twilightwolf100]

i got my tier 3 for lightning and i havent finished game

[R420247]

Nice Run! That's a huge help... what do you think of the game overall? I like 3 for ds 7 ps1 and 8ps1 the most, while this and 12 are my second favorites... anyways Peace!

[kreeperrock]

@R420247 me presonally this is the worst ever without doubt for best its hard to choose between 5 6 7 or 8 for me

[Eyedunno]

@kreeperrock

Amen, though I would personally go with 4-7 as my favorites (FFV is my absolute favorite - the job system, music, and weird gimmicky enemies make it tops, though VII is close behind). I'm playing this through, but wow, it's kind of a travesty to the series; it should not have been a numbered title. :/ The only good things are the graphics, music, and battle system (which is decent, but feels nothing like Final Fantasy - more like Star Ocean or something).

[kreeperrock]

@Eyedunno yea music and graphics personally i dnt like the battle system it was fun for 5 mins then i got bored star oceans was way better more tactical i found

[typher400]

wow!!!! tnx man!! this is awesome....!!>..>

[Carved1butchered]

Super Chill, favourited seemed worth checking when I'm at this part.

[greaser147]

you dont have to have mission 17 done.. just 14

[JointCracky]

is there any sense in maxing the lvl of the weapons ? cause i read that you get the Dragoonlance after some missions and Lionheart in chapter 13 . btw. if you got the Dragoonlance , could you tell me when you get it because i've read you get it like after the 47th mission....

[Eyedunno]

@JointCracky

The weapons you get all suck, in case you haven't noticed. They all have strengths and weaknesses, and you should choose carefully which ones you want to max out/use, but it is not necessarily the case that late-game weapons are better than early-game weapons.

[redblazerpea]

@Eyedunno i think thats a good thing. it took me ages to pick my weapons.

[Eyedunno]

@redblazerpea

I have mixed feelings about it. It's a decent system, but it obscures how good a given weapon actually is or isn't.

I had been warned about the system prior to playing it, so I looked at a weapons FAQ to figure out what I wanted, but it ultimately meant waiting until Chap. 12 to get any EXP for Hope or Lightning, and that sucked. :( Normally, you'd expect to get gradually stronger weapons in a FF game, but this game is another story.

[PK4I1F3]

ohh and also does anyone know what mission u have to do to tele back to the star where he is coz mine does not do that

[PK4I1F3]

does this count to the achievement/trophy for the 20 digs with a chocobo ??

[DJSkaank]

@PK4I1F3 Yes it does! You get a special item for the 1st 5th 10th 15th and 20th digging i think.

[wazzup1k]

at the first area i found a tetradic tiara xD

[sinonu]

@wazzup1k same man

[KraKish101]

heh i found your video, start your circuit and the first marker i find...gold nugget :)

[G0ld3nPwn3r]

you also get tetrahedric crowns which sell for like 40k but also give 4 instant buffs at the start of the battle, is a useful accsessory to have for boss battles...

[ExcellentNuke]

I have terrible luck >< I went on a few runs and only got 1 gold nugget. That was the only thing worth selling that I got and I burned it all instantly on Components to upgrade my Axis Blade and I still need 220k Gil to get the Component to level it up...

[DrKirstie]

ohhhhhhh shit i use all these expensive items when i am upgrading, i think to myself oh it's only 1 xp who cares about it, then poof! LOL i wish i knew sooner roflllll godddd damn

[super636vibes]

Wow thanks man! Good to know!

I'd also like to let everyone know that if you buy enough perfect conductors, and get enough of a "exp bonus" on their weapons, those do wonders on levelling up your stuff.

[deadwing5]

thank you forgot to mention video was very helpful. In addition you need missions 9 and 10 complete to oen up the central expanse.

[deadwing5]

I've done mission 17 and it doesn't allow me back on the central expanse :?

[pauly202]

hey ive just started where i get into grandpulse and im in the open plains where their is the monsters but no chocobos... how do i get them???

[xmagic9x]

@pauly202 mission 14 has to be done first.

[Artofthewind]

awesome thanks bro

[pauly202]

wait can anyone tell me how to get ultimate weapons i dont understand tiers... thx

[DarkWolf12]

@pauly202 when your weap is at the star lvl u can use a specific stone to eveolve to tier two and then again after to ultima weapon
