Hello! Long time player here (with a few month hiatus), but newer to the forums. I've been doing the Saturday Gold Grind whenever I get the chance, but I believe I've read several statements suggesting better places to grind for cash. What are some good stamina to gold ratio grinds?

Thanks ahead of time, I haven't really played min-maxing this game before but I've started coming to the forums/wiki more recently for info.

Right now the best map for you is E-4 Mountain Lily Reissue. For 50 stam map, it will give you 10k gold + 1k gacha seeds, even more if RNG favors you. It also gives decent exp (300)

Her E3 also quite good for farming if you're not strong enough for E4

Thanks! I had a feeling her map was pretty good.

I grind the Saturday gold religiously, but only hit up the 80 stam map 3 or 4 times, before focusing my attention elsewhere. What's more important is to participate in every seed boss fight (so you can burn the seed gacha and sell those 2, 3 star girls) and be able to effectively control your "fusing" (search on the boards, I already posted a mini-guide about this) I'm normally sitting between 1 and 2 million gold every week, 30,000 to 50,000 seeds, and I'm evolving at least 1 girl a week ... I'm not hurt for gold (or seeds). Flowers, on the other hand, i wish I had more...

Which reminds me ... I should spend those equipment seeds ... I think I had over 20,000 ...

Oh yeah, selling is a thing, eh? I'll make sure keep that in mind. Thanks for the info!

i'm farming the first stage of the Mountain Lily Reissue event for around 2k gold/200 gacha seeds then taking the 12 stam secret garden to lvl.

to be honest... lately I have done mostly event maps every day. And at some point I surpassed the 1 million gold mark.
And I just started playing near September...

Most of the event maps have good gold/stamina ratio, plus chance of life cristals and sometimes extra stages for the mayus.

Current event maps are good for gold, plus Life Crystals are also a thing. Poking bosses and pulling equipment and basic girls gacha for vendor trash items is also a good infusion of rapid cash (a stack of 20 2* nets 5K gold, and you can burn 100K of seeds on the Gacha to get them without even noticing), items are also a good way to burn, or earn cash. Especially that burning part heh, but you can also sell them decently enough.
Best idea is to keep running event maps, and whenver you hit a critical mass of seeds, do the gacha and seel the gains.
This and - good gold use planning - If you buy all stuff for the garden, or keep upgrading your maxed out 6* with ampys each day, your cash reserves will diminish quickly :D (my case)

I've been leveling and evolving girls quite a bit the past week, not to mention upgrading some equipment, so I got pretty strapped for gold.
Luckily, I was about to level today, and my stamina was nearly maxed, so I grabbed a coin boost and did 8 Coin Rush runs for ~30k at 80 stamina each, so I'll at least have enough to evolve 1-2 more girls should the need arise.

TL;DR: Event maps are great! Also spend your money efficiently. I'm not exactly strapped for cash, but since I tend to level all 4 squads at the same rate they're all gonna hit max level around the same time. Critical mass evolution is probably gonna destroy my bank (assuming I get the bloom dragons).

Thanks for the advice, everyone!

This is only for your first month or two. Once you hit a certain level, where you stop having to "whack a mole" with leveling/evolving, you're going to be mostly twiddling your thumbs waiting for event girls or once-in-a-blue-moon (unless your name is Moarsi) 6★ girl, or the rare moments when you pull a 5★ that is marginally more useful than your current fleet of 5★ girls. Then cash, seeds, etc., will pile up to the point where you're spending flowers on expanding storage. Unless you have shitty luck and the only 5★ girls in your roster ARE event girls.

This is where I was at for a while... had nothing to spend my gold on. Then came the IWZ 2x 5* tickets and the 6* girl for 1k gold and a decent roll on a couple of 10+1 gatcha's. After that I ended up with 2 event 5*s 1 6* and 5 other 5*s to level and evolve... suffice to say my gold went down awful quick.

Same here, it's had its ups and downs. I've had 2 million at times, but a few lucky pulls and guaranteed tickets further, I suddenly found a bunch of lvl 1 golds and rainbows in my list. Which needed manyus to level, so I ran a bunch of manyu dailies, which give very little gold. But using the manyus I got did cost a lot of gold. Then evolving, which requires more dailies that net little gold, but the evolving itself costs a ton.

On top of that, I keep all of my girls equiped with as much as they can carry, while upgrading every lvl 10 piece of equipment I find, which is a pretty constant gold drain as well.

I could ofcourse focus only on the girls I actually use, but the slice and magic ones already maxed out (or, in one case, I only use ampies to level), so I might as well level all the others in anticipation of Nation Battles. And yes, I do have evolved 2* girls wearing lvl 10 bracelets.

I think the Event Gacha is far more entertaining than Raid Boss one. Phase 1 hasn't ended and I'm getting bored(can't beat the Halloween 1st phase boredom).

thing is this frees stamina to do other things vs constantly farming same mission

Less life crystals mind

Yeah you are right Raid Boss Events are relatively boring compared to other Events but since i have an Alt Account i appreciate the current Event cause i have more freedom to run other maps than Event Maps ;)

Every Type of Event has Advantages and Disadvantages in my opinion:

Collection Events:
+ You don't have to Login that much per day. Farm your Event Maps and you are basically done.
- You don't have that much time/Stamina left to run other maps.

Medal Events:
+ good for High Level Players cause they are strong enough to clear all stages without any Problems and have enough Stamina for that.
- really bad for Newbies or Low Twink Accounts cause they don't have that much Power available and they don't have that much Stamina.

Raid Boss Events:
+ you have more freedom to run other maps.
- it's boring and you have to log in more occasionaly to spend your Raid Points.

Gacha Events:
+ interesting idea and if you are a lucky dude (Moarsi says Hello) you are done with that type of Event really fast.
- if you are an unlucky individual pray to Moarsi that you can finish your Event Girl in time^^

How do people even run out of gold? Has never happened to me during the whole time i've played FKG and nowadays i sometimes even use lowbie Manyus to feed to my higher level characters (up to level 40).

I run event or normal stages every day (depending on if i am done with the event or not) and manyu dailies whenever those are up. Never run out of gold ever 0.o

Well levelling the girls aren't the only things Gold is used for. Evolving does take a chunk out too, and more importantly leveling your equipment can burn through your gold too.

I only started a bit more than a month ago, near the end of the Lavender reissue, but I have yet to run out either. Currently at 1.2m and I have yet to drop under 1 mil yet. I don't run event maps after I complete the event and the only things I run after completing events are 2-1, 12-3, 12-5 and the occasional dragon and manyu dailies.

I still have a lot of girls to level though, none are maxed yet as I keep getting new ones that distract me. The only equips I level are Lv10 silvers rings and earrings.

In the beginning, you run out of gold really quick. Equipment and evolving bleeds gold easily. Even at this level, if I were to receive a couple of rainbows (in my dreams), I could easily burn through a million in a day.

I'm not actually strapped for cash atm. I've never hit 1 million but I've also never dropped below 200k. But I'm going to be doing a LOT of evolving and leveling in the next few months, so I want to make sure I can afford it.

By being lucky enough to always have girls in need of levels / evolutions. I have only reached over 1 million gold 2-3 times at most. At all other times I have had less than 500k due to constant lvling and evos. If you only lvl your best girls and not the rest then it's easy to save cash, but if you are a completion-est like me then all those 2, 3 and 4 * girls take a lot of lvling gold and a lot of manyu/dragon dailies.

Your gold should naturally change depending on how fast you level your girls and how quickly you obtain your girls. Ever since they started coming out with reissue events and I've had double the amount of 5star girls to level, I run out of gold instantly and never been above 500k. Its only recently after I finished leveling 4-5 of them in two weeks that I've been able to build gold up again. It got so bad for awhile that I started saving my level ups for Saturday so I could spam more runs through the gold daily.

It depends on how fast you are getting stronger. I never have more than 500k in my bank

It also depends on whether or not you farm the manyu dailys.
I personally don't farm Manyu dailys, the RNG and rewards are not worth it to be honest, so I never run out of gold.

Also depends on how many rainbows/golds you are leveling. Rainbows are a bit more expensive to level than golds. (level slower, higher evolution cost.)

It also depends on your luck and if you are whaling or not...

If your luck is shit and you have only got 3*/4* the only Girls you have to Level are the Event Girls.
If you are a Whale you always have to Level Rainbows Units (and that's really expensive).

I would like to know how much Gold Moarsi has atm :o...5 Gold??? :p
