Just dropping this here if anyone is interested. Atm I make 1.6 million gil per 24 hours with shard farming, not as much as you get from running 4 bots but it works for ppl who uses one bot and wants to make lots of gil anyway. Just gotta make sure you come back every 8-12th hour or so to put up the shards on the market. Your shards should have sold out within 8-12 hours else it will keep stacking up and eventually you will be filled with shards, 106 per shard in stacks of 500 works wonders for me, get about 1m per 10k shards then, and I get about 16k-17k shards in 24 hours.
Another way I'm researching is setting the bot to make lots of 2* tomatoes with culinarian and getting spectacles and desynth em for master/fieldcraft 3 materia. You need a fully geared culinarian and all doh classes at 15 before you can fluently make hq(althou i dont reach 100%, more 80-90% without using other lv50 doh cross skills) and depending on your server you can make alot of gil. but again, shard farming requires only a lv 1 botanist or miner, althou you get the 3 shards per harvest at 15 or something.
