1.1 - What you need
I felt pretty bad that my last tutorial was only for thieves. So I decided to bust out my all time favorit technique. This is pretty simple and not many people know about it. Again as always let us keep this between MPS. There is no reason to have this thing camped. Now with that being said lets get on to what you need! In order to do this you will ned the following:
1) A level 40+ character of any kind
2) A level 5 thief so you can have steal (this will be your sub job)
3) Some descent equipment if you are excatly level 40
1.2 - Where to go
If you are starting out at Jeuno simply make your way to Upper Jeuno and then to Sauromugue Champaign. At the Champaign you will want to make your way to the circled spot below via chocobo (see pic below). This is the same spot where people go to do the ranger quest. If for some reason you can't see the pic or my tutorial is ageless it is located at (L-10).
1.3 - What to do
When you get to the spot you will see tigers, black tigers, or sabertooth tigers depending on how you look at it. The one in the cave is pretty easy to kill, but I wouldn't kill it unless no one is there doing the quest. The tigers drop the following:
1) Tiger Hide
2) Tiger Fang
3) Also stealing from them will give you cockatrice meat.
The thing that is unique about this particular spot is pretty unknown. The tigers that are in this area have something that sells for around 20k for twelve of them. If you steal from these tigers they'll give you Cocka Trice meat. Now if you steal successfully tweleve times during one hour that's about 20k or more. However, these things also drop tiger hides which sell for 400 or if you convert them to tiger leather 2k per skin. Furthermore the tiger fang if you get 3 of them will sell for 2,100 in San'doria. This way I found is one of the coolest ways to make gil.
1.4 Tiger Fang quest
QUEST START: Southern San d'Oria Taumila at (E-9)
REQUIREMENTS: Fame level 3
REWARD: 2,100 Gil
HOW: There is no level requirement to do this quest, but you need a descent amount of fame to do it. Seeing that your level 40+ and your MPS members I'm sure you either have the fame or know how to get it. The quest is fairly simple you just trade 3 fangs and you get 2,100 gil. This quest is repeatable so you can do it as many times as you want. Simply talk to Taumila and trade 'em the 3 tiger fangs and you get the money
DO YOU LOVE MAGDUST?: Yes
1.5 Conclusions, tips and tricks
Be careful not to link these guys otherwise you could be in trouble. Hit one then pull it out of the canyon so you won't link 'em. If you get in trouble just run away there is an exit to Meriphitaud Mountains right around the corner. This may go faster if you bring a friend along to heal and what not. If someone comes along to do the quest don't attack the wounded tiger because that's just mean
Good luck and God speed!
