A stack of first crystals can sell for 2000 Ffxi gil easily over at the auction house. There are 2 good methods to collect fire crystals. The more commonly used method would be the usual beat the mob down and loot method. To start you need to be around level 7-10. You will need signet cast on you at your town gates. Head out North to Unterberg where you will be able to find many vultures. You will only want to kill the vultures and nothing else to conserve time. To the Northwest of San Doria there is an area full of Orcs. The orcs drop a nice amount of fire crystals as well. You can probably average about 3 stacks in an hour. 6000 ffxi gil in an hour for a level 7-10 is not too bad. The other method of farming fire crystals is by gardening. You start by buying a brass flower pot in the auction house, several vegetable seeds and some water crystals. You then plant the flower plot in your Mog house and put in the vegetable seeds. Feed it some water crystals, after 1-3 days you will have 17 fire crystals come out of it. You can have up to 6-8 flower pots per house, you can easily make 20-30,000 ffxi gils every 2-3 days. It only takes a few minutes to purchase the accessories and to plant them. It is a wealthy short term investment. Money growing on trees is the way.
