Re: How do you do it!

Are you sure that it will work? I tried killing bee's for a while and they did not drop any beehive chips. Do I have to switch jobs? Or will my theif be just as effective if not more effective?

The bees on the hill in North Gustaberg always drop beehive chips and drop them quite often. Just make sure you're killing the right bees. On the hill there are bees called Maneating Hornets. These are what you want. The OTHER bees near the entrance of town do not drop beehive chips. If they do they're very rare. So first make sure you're hunting in the right spot. Look on your map and make your way up the hill located at around I-7. It will take you some time to find the path up there if you haven't been there before. Just run around the hill until you find it.

North Gustaberg is near Bastok. Giddeus is near Windurst. There are also Giant Bees out in East or West Sarutabaruta. Here, look at some maps and get your bearings straight:

You need to explore a bit more outside of the starting nations. All the areas mentioned so far are very common areas.

Once again, bees near the entrance to starting cities rarely drop chips if at all. so don't bother with them. Only exception is around Jueno.

Re: How do you do it!

always farm as your thf if possible for the treasure hunter/gil finder bonus. At lvl 30 with a ranger sub and some cheap arrows, you could farm wind elementals in tahgrohi* canyon pretty easily. With inflation at its current state now is the time to farm crafting ingredients/supplies, and to spend as little as possible. While every1 complains about the new costs for SH, hauby, bomb cores etc.. i am raking in gil, as i really have nothing left to buy atm >.>

silk, beehive chips, clusters, femurs, money is everywhere you just have to have the mule space =P
