Re: Is there like no threads here?
It's more that nobody cares about servers on FFXIO. Our community isn't big enough to really organize things through the server forums, and our community would rather just talk to each other instead of splitting off into factions.

Either way, I think we have three or four people on bahamut, I'm sure they'll be happy to help, although the likelihood of anyone being at lv4 is unlikely. Someone might have an unused job they could team up, though, although most people wait until 15-20 before they get a party.
------------------------------------------
one tip, from a blm to another, don't bother trying to use your spells at such a low level. Get a good quality staff from the AH, keep your armor decent and just whack the shit out of easy prey mobs and you'll do much better.

QFT. You'll waste hours of time getting to level 10 if you use all your MP fighting one or two mobs and then resting. Just run around and beat the hell out of EP mobs.







PLD75 DRK60 lots of other levels.

I'm not sure what you people are talking about. At that level range, I would kill most mobs with one spell. I could just run from mob to mob, casting Stone over and over again until I was out of MP. Then I'd have to rest, but that hardly takes any time at all in the single digits. Wash, rinse, repeat.

BLM was easily the fastest 1-10 I've had on just about any job. Except maybe MNK.

I'm with Murphie, and I'm not even a Tarutaru...

Stone was king on the newbie zones.

Re: Is there like no threads here?
Maybe if you've got your Black Magic maxed out from a previous job, and have good INT and +MP equip.

When you start as just a BLM, it's quite a different story.

Re: Is there like no threads here?
No. When I first started Murphie. BLM was the first job I leveled, and I didn't have a sub. I used starter gear.

Re: Is there like no threads here?
You have the MP, you may as well use it ... that said, it's not worth trying to cast while the mob is hitting you until you manage to get your timing down. Single-digit BLM isn't the time to try to learn that.

Re: Is there like no threads here?
It's not my intention to be contrary, but seriously. Unless you are really terrible at the game, you shouldn't have any problems getting a spell off solo. If you find that it's hard to cast when the mob is beating on you, then you learn to stand the hell back before you engage, and you learn how to avoid interruption.

If single digits aren't the time to learn that, I'm not sure when would be.
