Thanks for the replies. How exactly do I get red coins? All the event drops I'm getting are candy, horses, & suns ._.

When NLC returned to its old self, we gained the ability to get iTCG stuff extremely easily, and some craftable items sell pretty easily. (And us collectors are crying)

1. Do the NLC/CWK quest chain to gain access to the badge exchange from Joko in Dead Man's Gorge. I believe you need to be lvl 90+ to begin the quest chain. Start it at the Mayor and do his quiz, then go to Dead Man's Gorge and speak with Taggrin to get started.
2. Gather up a ton of Nightshadow and Firebrand badges (Usually around 30-45 of each per run is good)
-Note: Firebrands can also drop Flamekeeper Cordons which sell for around 20m in Scania.
3. Trade in badges to Joko 1 at a time, and drop anything that ISN'T one of these items: Subani Ankh, Taru Totem, Antellion Relic.
4. Once you get a good supply of all 3, go to John Barricade in Mesogears and trade in some for Stormcaster Glove manuals.
5. Once you get enough of those (they stack in your inventory) go to Spindle in the NLC town center and begin crafting.
6. Each glove costs 2 Refined Power Crystals and 15 Leathers to make. I get a good amount of leathers from Moon Bunnies in KFT, and Power Crystals are pretty cheap.
7. Profit: Sell, sell, sell. Currently each pair goes for around 30m-40m in Scania to unaware people (I see entire stores cleared out, and I've personally made over 1b from these and C.Ilbis)

Alternatively, you can craft Crystal Ilbis instead. These require a Crystal Shard (Gained by trading in 1 Stormbreaker Badge at random) and a Narricain Jewel (Gained by trading in 1 Firebrand Badge at random). You will also need 1 Ilbi and 7 LUK Crystals to craft these, but they do sell for a lot compared to the effort used to craft them.

You could try getting as many red coins as you can and get the revolution gear until you get the mesos for stuff like empress, root abyss gear, etc.
You could take advantage of the events that's coming up, so you can get funded for the gear also.

Well... empress has actually gotten affordable to just about everyone, so you could go for that.

Didn't think I'd be buying a few pieces for like, 3m.
