XIV Profitability — How to Make Gil in Final Fantasy XIV

XIV Profitability is a free toolkit for Final Fantasy XIV players who want to make gil without the guesswork. It pairs live market-board prices from your world (via Universalis) with the game's crafting, gathering, vendor, monster-drop, and retainer-venture data, then ranks every money-making option by estimated profit and how fast the item actually sells.

Ways to make gil, ranked for your server

• Crafting — the most profitable recipes to craft and sell, per class.
• Gathering — the highest gil-per-day mining and botany nodes.
• Farming — marketable items dropped by monsters, and where to farm them.
• NPC to Market flips — items you can buy cheap from vendors and resell for profit.
• Market to NPC flips — items to buy on the board and sell back to vendors.
• Cross-Server arbitrage — items cheaper on another world in your data center or region.
• Retainer ventures — the most valuable ventures to send your retainers on.
• Vendor browse & item search — look up any item's price, sales velocity, and sources.

How it works

Every figure is specific to the world shown at the top of the app, because the same item can be worth wildly different amounts across servers. The app fetches current listings and recent sales, does the math (material cost, expected sale price, 5% market tax, resulting margin), and sorts by a combined profit and sales-per-day score. It's free, needs no account, and nothing to install.
