How to Make Gil in Patch 7.2 of FFXIV 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 general guide.

Patch 7.21 releases Cosmic Exploration while patch 7.25 drops Occult Crescent. Both of these methods have the potential to be huge for gil making!

Cosmic Exploration releases with a wide range of cosmetic options which will be very valuable at the start of the patch both from the new currency as well as from the new Kupo of Fortune equivalent. Additionally, because Cosmic Exploration has a ranking system, the demand for crafting/gathering gear will shoot up as well as the demand for materia.

Occult Crescent on the other hand will likely follow in the footsteps of Eureka and Bozja, both of which have had incredible gil making methods. Especially for non-crafters. We also know that one of the new jobs available in Occult Crescent utilises potions as buyable items with one of the potions going for 300,000 gil per use! This may push a lot of players into the market so be careful of increased sellers!

Patch 7.2 releases brand new gear for combat classes, as always this can be handy for statics trying to get an early clear but many non-raiders also buy the gear. This is often one of the best gil making methods available if you can be competitive in your undercutting by either undercutting large or often to maintain your position at the top.

The release of this gear also increases the demand for Crafting/Gathering gear as well as materia. Either from players who did not gear effectively or from players who simply waited til 7.2, there will be plenty of players trying to catch up in 7.2 and wanting the stats to craft.

New combat gear and raid means new Allagan Tometones called Mathematics and therefore new materials to purchase with those tomes! These materials are incredibly important for making the new combat gear and therefore will be heavy in demand.

The newest savage raid releases in patch 7.2 with many hardcore raiders doing what they can to prog and clear. This involves amassing thousands of pots as well as raid food.

The value of raid consumables will start to decrease shortly after the raid releases.
