Cause I have some spare time I built a lvling guide based on two sites and some hypothesis:
http://11111.fc2web.com/ - BST site
http://ff11.s33.xrea.com - Vana'Diel monsters
The (pet - attacked monster) pair is based on the monsters strength - weakness map on the first site:
1. Vermin -> Plantoids -> Beasts -> Lizards -> Vermin
2. Birds -> Aquans -> Amorpha -> Birds
Vermin = Worms, Bees, Crawlers, Beetles, Flies, Scorpions, Spiders
Plantoids = Mandragoras, Saplingsa, Treants, Cactuses, Funguars, Morbols, Goobbues
Beasts = Rabbits, Sheeps, Rams, Dhalmels, Tigers, Opo-opo, Coeurls, Manticores
Lizards = Lizards, Raptors, Cockatrices
Birds = Bats, Birds
Aquans = Pugils, Crabs, Octopi
The recommended lvl stated is based on the both monsters lvl in that area (pet and defendent) taken from second site as such:
- pet lvl = 2 lvls more than the minimum lvl of that monster in that area (to be able to find easily some monsters to be tamed, being -1, -2 lvls of the BST)
- attacked moster = until 2 lvls more than the maximum lvl of that monster in that area (to be able to get decent experience ranging from 12 to at least 50) (when at the begining of the pair lvl you might get 100 or more exp )
Example:
Area: Valkurm Dunes
pet Beech Pugil lvl 23-26
attacks Thread Leech lvl 21-25
Recomended lvl: min 25- max 27 ( min 25= pet min lvl +2 = 23+2;
max 27 = attacks max lvl +2 = 25+2)
Here are some places together with their pairs:
Ronfaures
Beetle -> Funguar 5-8
Funguar -> Hare 5-8
Funguar -> Sheep 7-10
La Theine
Sappling -> Hare 10-12
Poison Bats - Thickshells 12-16
Grass Funguars -> Sheeps 14-16
Konschtat
Sheeps -> Lizards 13-15
Valkurm
Hare -> Lizards 17-20
Damesfly -> Snipper 22-24
Damesfly -> Pugils 24-25
Pugils -> Leech 25-27
Jugner
Screamer -> Pugils 17-20
Screamer -> Snipper 17-20
Pugils.Snipper -> Leech 19-23
Beetle -> Funguar 22-25
Funguar -> Tiger 24-27
Buburimu Peninsula
Mandragora -> Rarab 17-20
Zu -> Snipper 22-24
Snipper -> Leech 21-23
Pugil -> Leech 25-27
Rolanberry
Wasp -> Clipper 24-27
Clipper -> Leech 25-28
Ordelles Cave
Snipper -> Thread Leech 19-22
Sappling -> Bunny 20-21
Jelly -> Ancient Bat 28-30
Ancient Bat -> Clipper 28-31
Clipper -> Jelly 28-30
Jelly -> Slash Pine 28-31
Ding Beetle -> Poison Leech 25-29
Some lvl numbers are not following the above rule cause the difference between pet and attacked monster should not be more than -2 lvls (the third hypothesis
)
Please try some of above and post your results, comments, ..... whatever. I want to know what is wrong and refine it further for the moment when Ill reach 30s and get my BST
Have fun
