How to Make Gil in Patch 7.5 of FFXIV Dawntrail
This guide focuses on Gil making for the newest Dawntrail Patch, 7.5, to help give you inspiration as well as some really good methods on how to make Gil while taking advantage of new content demand.
Best Gil Making for Patch 7.5 Dawntrail
Taking advantage of newly released content is a great way to make Gil. More players are currently playing and trying to experience this content, which can impact markets in a range of ways. This provides you opportunities to make an easy profit.
This guide will list a few of the biggest ways you can make money with incredibly in-demand items relevant to the current patch.
Please note that every server is different, and what works on one server may be less effective on another server. It is always worth checking your sale history to gauge the demand for an item or series of items. For other advice that is less focused on the newest patch, check out our other guides!
Returning Players
With the North American Fan Festival over and the official reveal of the Evercold expansion, many players are returning back to FFXIV after a brief break.
This provides a wide-range of potential gil-making opportunities from people wanting to catch up on gear, to wanting rewards from content thats less active to overall market demand being up.
Additionally, as we get closer to Evercold, many players will begin prepping anything that can help at the start of the next expansion. Keep an eye out on what people start to prep, and you may find some great markets!
Endgame Crafted Combat Gear
While there is no new gear in 7.3, players will be able to augment the existing gear to push it further. This drastically increases the demand and price of the items compared to how they are before the patch as well as both legendary node and tomestone materials too.
Endgame Crafting and Gathering Gear
While 7.5 brings nothing for Crafting and Gathering specifically, demand is huge for Crafting and Gathering gear. Many players have returned with the reveal for Evercold and crafted gear is selling very fast as people catch up both in general and specifically for the final Cosmic Exploration planet.
Crafting and Gathering Materia
In a similar vein, our resident crafters and resource gatherers will need literally thousands of materia for the best meldsets. With this set being the final set of the expansion, many players meld as high as possible which further increases materia demand. The best way to gain crafting materia is via Scrip Farming while Spiritbonding is optimal for gathering.
That being said, the best time to sell, is often from panic preppers just before the patch so keep that in mind for future patches.
Allagan Tomestone Materials
Crafting and Gathering gear also use the existing tome materials while the increased demand for endgame crafted combat gear further pushes the prices and demand of these items higher. They may also see a small spike with cosmic's release in 7.51 as players rush to gear with new content.
Raid Food and Potions
While there are no more savage raids, there will be one final ultimate for Dawntrail, the price of consumables may increase briefly.
The value of raid consumables will start to decrease shortly after and with no further high-end content, prices will continue to drop. You may consider looking for greener gilmaking pastures until Evercold.
