Your ticket to a pile of Nuts

If you’re looking to hoard some Sacks of Nuts in Final Fantasy XIV Dawntrail, you’re going to need to head out in sear𒁏ch of A, S, and even SS Rank Hunt Marks. The last of these, SS Ranks, give the most Nuts when killed, bu🐲t they’re incredibly rare.

A and S Rank Hunt Marks, on the other hand, can be found much more easiꦉly and while they don’t give as many Sacks of Nuts, their more common nature means you can quickly build up a hoard that a squirrel would be envious of.
