Skill vs. Delay relationship

The FFXI Guild Masters Guide Version 070203 lists this as the skill:delay relationship:

Rank Area Delay (s) Dig Delay (s)
Amateur 60 16
Recruit 55 11
Initiate 50 6
Novice 45 0
Apprentice 40 0
Journeyman 35 0
Craftsman 30 0
Artisan 25 0
Adept 20 0
Veteran 15 0
Expert 10 0

but the one listed on the current page (15 -> 10 -> 5 -> 3s) is more accurate for the time between digs. I needed 5.4 seconds between digs at rank 3 and 3.4 seconds between digs at rank 4 (and during the delay- campaign.) However, measured from the == Zone Banner == to the first dig attempt, I get about 5 seconds off (long) of the zone delay. This might be due to the actual delay of the action, but just something to note. --Byrthnoth (talk) 08:39, 7 February 2022 (EST)


Gysahl Greens

TLDR: Use cruor to buy Gysahl Greens to maximize your profit.

When I started digging (long long time ago), Gysahl Greens were stackable by 12. Fast forward many years, and it's stackable by 99.
However, Gysahl Greens can cut in our profit. At 6138g per stack, it's 2.2M gil per year (at a stack per day).
Then, I finally realised that Gysahl Greens can by bought with cruor in Scars of Abyssea zones!
I was wondering what to do with all those cruor I got during those Voidwatch Campaign.
That same 365 stacks of Gysahl Greens would cost 1.8M cruor.
It's basically converting 1 cruor for 1.24 gil. Atrelamine (talk) 00:08, 22 February 2026 (UTC)
