The Easiest Ways to Farm MGP in FFXIV
The Gold Saucer is Final Fantasy’s premier, go-to amusement park that has continued to make its gilded mark in the franchise, includingFinal Fantasy XIV. It’s a vibrant and exciting pastime for anyWarrior of Light, and partaking in the park’s incredible variety of games and activities can also provide some very tempting rewards. to get your hands on some prizes though, just like at any actual arcade or casino, you’ll need tokens in the form of MGP to exchange for them. Thankfully, there are many ways to rack up those coins, and if you’re wondering how to get more MGP fast, we’ve got you covered. Here is our guide tothe easiest ways to farm MGP in FFXIV.
The Fashion Report
The easiest and most profitable method of earning substantial sums of MGP consistently in the Gold Saucer is, without a doubt,the Fashion Report. It’s a weekly glam-based challenge that is unlockable very early on in the game, and there are many reliable online resources (including our own!) to make sure you check off every necessary box to get the highest score for the best reward.
Every Tuesday, there is anew challenge themethat requires you to dress up your character in certain garments, dyed or not, and the more accurately you represent the challenge, the higher the score you’ll get. You’ll be able to present yourself for judging before the Roe NPC namedMasked Rose,starting on Friday and ending on Monday.
Getting a minimum score of80 pointswill ensure you receive the maximum amount of tokens as a reward, which is60,000 MGP. This means you can earn at least240,000 MGP a monthjust by doing this one activity in the Gold Saucer. Needless to say, you’ll be swimming in coins in no time.

Completing GATE Activities
Every 20 minutes (actual time), there is a special activity that spawns somewhere in the park called aGATE(or “Gold Saucer Active Time Event”; similar to a FATE out in the open world areas of the game). As you participate in these special contests and activities, the better your personal results, the more MGP you’ll obtain from each one. It can range from2,000 MGPup to12,000 MGP(perfect results in ‘The Slice is Right’).
The various types of GATEs, according to actual time, that can potentially spawn include:
This would be the second-most reliable method of accruing MGP due to its incredibly consistent respawn time. Should you choose to camp out in the Gold Saucer for a few hours or on and off throughout the day, you can easily complete at least a dozen of these in a day, netting you at least several thousand MGP.
On top of that, per yourChallenge Logs(found in the “Logs” menu tab), you’ll earn a bonus of5,000 MGPfor every5 GATEs you participate inand then8,000 MGPfor every3 GATEsyou successfully complete. Bear in mind thatChallenges reset weeklyevery Tuesday so that you can complete both of these once a week.
Mini-Cactpot Drawings
While the weekly Jumbo Cactpot drawing can promise millions of MGP to the luckiest of folk, the odds of actually getting every number right are trickier than getting a needle-spitting Cactuar to stay still. So, it’s not particularly considered the most efficient way to get steady piles of MGP.
However, everyday players can make their way toEntrance Squareand speak to theMini Cactpot Broker(X:5.1, Y:6.5) to participate in theMini Cactpot drawings, which, in essence, are scratch-off tickets that can promise a wide range of MGP rewards.
Simply purchase a ticket (each costs only 10 MGP), and you’ll receive your scratch-off that gives you three chances to uncover a row of numbers in a 3×3 grid. The maximum prize is10,000 MGPif you reveal numbers in a rowthat add up to 6(which are 2, 3, and 1). The lowest is 36 MGP, so at the very least, you make a small profit with each attempt. you may purchase up to 3 tickets daily, and some days will be luckier than others. However, you should definitely keep in the habit of doing this daily.
Wondrous Tails
This is a method that some don’t necessarily expect, but it’s actually a relatively reliable means of getting some extra MGP outside of the Gold Saucer. Each week that you pick up your new Wondrous Tails sticker book from littleKhloe AliapohinIdyllshire(as a Level 90 class), you’ll notice that there is always a potential prize for MGP Cards, and with a good stroke of luck, you could definitely buff up your stacks.
If you manage to get one line of stickers in your book, you’re able to take home one30,000 MGPGold Card. If you get 2 lines, you’ll get2 x MGP Platinum Cards(50,000 MGP each), and should the universe shine upon you and grant you 3 lines, then a whopping20 x MGP Platinum Cardscan be yours. Doing the math, that’s1,000,000 MGPstraight to your wallet.
Make It Rain Campaign
This last method is part of a summertime annual event that takes place in the Gold Saucer every year. The“Make It Rain” Campaigngrants a50% buff to all sums of MGP earned through any activityin the park. So should you get lucky with your Mini Cactpot tickets, or get a high score on the Fashion Report, or complete a hefty number of GATEs, your MGP count will go up exponentially higher during this event. On top of all that, there is usually a special quest and reward (minion, emote, etc) that also happens during the campaign.
Also, if you happen to be in an FC (Free Company) that has access to them, you may activate an FC buff called‘Jackpot’that further boosts MGP earningsby up to 15%for every member.
