This event is very easy. A new player shouldn't have any trouble doing Gil Snapper's Cave all the way up to the last stage.

Monsters from this event don't drop normal loot, nor can it be stolen. Though you are advised to use Libra against Gil Snappers to collect their data. Gil Snappers always drop a Gil Snapper unit of their type. Starting with v2.0 of the game, each stage has a higher rarity of Gil Snapper, and with the exception of Golden Cavern, the last round will always guarantee 3 of that type of Gil Snapper. Entrance will guarantee 3 Mini Gil Snapper. Center will guarantee 3 Gil Snapper. Depths will guarantee 3 King Gil Snapper. Golden Cavern will guarantee 1 Gil Snapper Family.

The expected average gil you gain by doing Gil Snapper's Cave - Depths is around 35,000. Golden Cavern drops an average of 135,000, with lower and upper limits 60,000 and 210,000 respectively. This is one of the most time-efficient method of farming gil in contrast to the time costly, but experience efficient explorations. Keep in mind that gil is not all that important until late game in which the costs for enhancing and awakening units increases drastically.
