Level 75

I think his comment was meant for Wolf, not you, lol.
 
I cant give ya much advice that hasnt been said already ie get an endgame ls. along the way to 75 you should have picked up a few freinds in an endgame ls to ask for an invite into an endgame ls.

As for gear you should start prioritizing i'd reccomend adding in a points system for your dex/agi gear at least dex is 1.3 pionts agi is 1. if if wasnt for dancing edge dex would be only one point but the modifiers pushes up its value slightly.
things less than a mil you can add into your collection slowly are:
staurobow
spinel rings(these are pretty cheap id think and they give dex+4)
sell those tiger rings. they suck period. sorry if it makes you sad but I have never been able to understad why they even sell let alone why anyone woud wear em.
start farming haku eyes for a cluster: several are ep to you and easily soloable. para might be annoying so bring an npc or freind with /whm.

Start doing assault missions. pal body pal legs and pal feet should be priority from what i can tell by looking at your gear.

Narishima vest is another option for body gear. looking at your gear I'd say ANY accuracy is priority since you have so little
camp ose perhaps with freinds? Aj is a very nice body peice.

BTW try and get some sniper rings maybe? lv 50 is the level theyre generally considered to be required from melee since 10 levels of farming while lfp is usually more than enough time to get the money for them.
 
You didn't say if you had SEA or SKY. If you don't, thats something you can do to entertain yourself while you look for an endgame LS.

Most endgame LSs use those two areas constantly and you will be required to have them.

Thats quite a list you have there. Still, I'm taking baby steps. I get discouraged/bored after a large ammount of farming. As for friends, I'm pretty kept to myself 99% of the time I play. I never really stick with people long enough to become friends,but just yesterday I picked up a BoondockStaints LS. Hopefully I can make a few there.

Money seems to be my main problem. So I'll start farming...
 
Level your bst to 40 (or 75 even) and you'll never have to worry about not finding help for BCNM's/KSNM's. :P Doesn't really take all that long.

I know, I know. You probably don't want to level up ANOTHER job just to make more money... but it is a solid option.

Another option is to team up with a crafter and turn those beehive chips and silk threads into an end result and split the profits. Several months ago, I did this with a friend who was struggling with earning gil. He'd farm up 3 stacks of beehive chips and a stack of slime oil and I'd turn em into silent oils. We'd then split the profits. Wasn't HUGE gil for him, but it was better than just selling the chips.

I listed tons of options instead of saying you need everything on this list. Basically pick and choose what you feel improves you best.
I'd suggest the lv 72 ring atm cause theyre really cheap atm and tons of the dex ones are in ah(10 atm). taking advantage of the cheapest improvement you can get atm before prices might rise agian would be prudent.
the narishima's vest is also a very cheap source of str and acc which you could find the most beneficial.

The cost of flourite rings and tiger rings combined is the same as a spinel ring atm so you should only lose money on ah fees.
I'd suggest geting all those people that you helped out to help you out in return with assault ect. dont try and guilt em into it but not wanting to help a person who got you where you were today is kinda being a jerk when heling out is mutually beneficial.

Have you considered gold coins? I thought that was popular amongst thieves as well as something with desynthing in gold smithing. Gold masks? As far as the money making issue goes at least. I've heard steal/hide is effective. Not sure what it amounts to in current profits. Also exploit an nm. By exploit I don't mean hacks/bots, but find some uncontested lower level NM and camp it for like 100k a pop or something. Holy phials are like 100k. Dodge earrings, etc. Go another direction and set up a enm group here via the events forum.

Farming is good, but don't make it your bread and butter. Dance around in various markets and hopefully that will help the gil issues. Camping items that you need for your job is also good-- if you have emporer hairpin camp empress and sell the non-rare ex one for money to spend else where.

I don't recommend leveling up another job to get into an end-game shell as the better alternative. Truth be told, most in end game have so many multple jobs to fill almost every position within the shell. Your better, more established ones will want to get to know you and your playstyle. Your newer, smaller, still becoming established shells will generally pick anyone who will accept their pearl as they need members. Being reserved, and a quite person has its merits-- on the downside without the right connections it might be more difficult to advance. People helping people results in better equipped players and better karma.

And don't get too overly zealous about getting into an end-game shell unless staying in a zone for several hours is your bag. Many enjoyable activities within this game that don't require being involved in an end-game shell. Event/social shells might be a nice alternative to consider. Good luck.
