I suddenly felt like finishing leveling my BLM to 75. Last I leveled BLM was before the release of ToAU so this soloing thing is kinda new to me. I've been killing Goblin pets in Bibiki Bay and I think I've kinda got the hang of it. I'm not so sure about my gear and whatnot so I'm looking for some general information from people who have done this more.

First, as I understand it Elemental Skill+ gear is better then INT+ because of the lower resist rate. So I'm at level 61 and have an Intellect Torque, at 65 I would replace that with an Elemental Torque. Do I have that right?

Is there a site or a listing somewhere of the levels of pets so it's easier to find possible alternate leveling spots?

Ok, the gear list:
NQ Staves
Shield: Bugard Leather Strap +1
Head: Wizard's Pestasos
Neck: Intellect Torque
Ear: Cunning Earring
Ear: Moldavite Earring
Body: Justaucorps/Wizard's Coat for Sleep
Hands: Wizard's Gloves
Rings: Zircon Ring
Back: Red Cape +1
Waist: Penitent's Rope
Legs: Wizard's Tonban
Feet: Wizard's Sabots

Other then the AF, most of that is stuff I use playing RDM.

Now I know about the Yigit stuff at 72, though I haven't looked into which pieces to prioritize since at the moment I don't have a LS to do Assaults with. Thanks to Hongman I know about the Sorcerers Ring though I don't believe I would want to use that soloing, but it's on the wish list for later.

Would I keep the Justaucorps at 68 or get a Black Cloak? I'm thinking go with the Cloak.

For food I've been using Melon Pie +1 that I had in my mog house. Anything better?

Again, I'm really looking for any tips and whatnot from anyone who's done this more.
