Nirvana Is Dead, All Hail Opashoro

What's a good solo Nyzul run now? 2500 tokens? I'm going to assume 2500. So that's 60 Nyzul, 70 Einherjar, with travel time factored in let's call that 81 hours total. Assaults... average them out to 20 minutes, there's some that take a whole half hour and some that take longer to load into than to clear. 17 hours.

We'll just call it a whole 16 hour day to get Sanraku his pictures of Spider-Man then climb the ZNM ladder four times. Also going to assume that three of the four Sarameya fights are saved for when there's a trial set for them.

Garland of Bliss suuuuucks for killshot. Not as bad as Atonement but there's just not a lot summoner can do to scale it up. Gonna call it two minutes to kill one mob. It might be closer to one minute in actual reality, but this lets us ignore travel time and breaks to question our life choices. 200 weaponskills on beasts is a bit faster if you have the gear, call that a minute a hit but less is entirely possible. 36 hours cranking out weaponskills while the magian moogle watches creepily.

Let's say an hour per chariot, give lots of time for sight-seeing, cell hunting, picking up a little alexandrite for the next run.

So, if you didn't sleep, barely took breaks to eat or go to the bathroom, you'd be spending about 72 hours on all the non-alexandrite tasks.

Looks like Bhaflau II offers an average of 200 alexandrite if every NM drops its purse, 112 if none of them do, so we'll average the averages and call that 156 per run. 193 laps through Salvage, let's call it 75 minutes each. 241 hours in there. Just for the sake of easy numbers, we'll round that off to 240, making it 10 full days.

For beitetsu, we'll assume you have six bodies to take in to avatar fights for maximum beitetsu box collecting potential. At this point nobody's still reading so I'm just going to average no beitetsu and maximum beitetsu, for 0 to 14 x 30, 210 per avatar. 48 fights, about 20 minutes with the fight and the loading and travel time, you could do it with less but I'm going to pad a little. Add another 20 minutes every seven fights to go refill merits. 18 more hours.

So we're up to 14 and a half days. Just so we don't Pandemonium Warden the whole process, let's assume a healthy 8 hours of sleep every day now, to make that 20 days total with no distractions, only FFXI.

Now, for your detritus, we'll call that an average of 12 per Omen run, which might be a little high if you're not on TH8 thief, a little low if you are, it's about what I expect on TH4 blu. Since you can store your canteens without losing time, we'll assume you're getting a full 1.2 Omen runs per day without fail, so 14.4 detritus. We'll add a full Dynamis clear every three days, 40 total volte mobs that should average about four detritus a head, for 160/run or 53.3 a day. In total, about nine days of detritus mining - and that's mostly empty time, 24 minutes a day of Omen and 40 minutes a day of Dynamis on average. I'll call that one extra day, but it doesn't necessarily need to be. So, 21 days.

Assuming you make about 39500 muffins a run and hit every run perfectly at 20 hours, gallimaufry and psyches will line up and it'll take exactly six months. If you only want to do it once a day, you need to hit ~47250 a day instead. If you're doing, say, blu cleave solo instead and pulling in 14k per run, that'll be 607 trips, 506 days hitting the timing dead on every time.

So, depending on how hardcore you are about your prime weapon, you spend from 180 to 607 days on it.
