Questions about bst.

Ok thanks.

I have a question about BST as well o.o;

How does the experience work out? Do you get full exp if you kill something with a pet out of a party in a party? Or are there still limitations that gimp your exp?

What is a good difficulty range on possible pets should be charmed and used to attack their friends in the area? VT? T? EM?

There's no longer any XP cut regardless of whether you use a jug pet or charm a mob, regardless of whether you're in a party or not. The only way there's ever any XP "penalty" is if you charm a mob of a higher level than you, and then it's exactly the same as having someone in a party the same level as the mob.

Generally, you charm DC-EM and send them against EM-T (maybe VT if you know what you're doing), possibly using multiple pets. Ideally, you want EM pets (the strongest you can get without affecting your XP).

About 20 is when I started to like BST. The gear available to boost your chr makes all the difference in miss charms. At 35 is when I fell in love with it(Leave). At 55, I love the way I can do missions myself with the right preparations. Just duoed my AF boots with a 54 WHM. Took a while but I didn't have to wait for a group or a level 75 to help me with it . Being able to farm the coffer keys solo for the rest of it is just priceless. Now i am preparing for a suicide mission to break the 55 level barrier and then the 60.

There is the problem with solo BST. The exp will most likely stay at 120 ish to 200 untill about 60.

Not really, i have pulled chains into the 350s if i got lucky around 52ish, and it only gets better after that.

Tip, get a light staff (or if you have the gil an Apollo's staff) when you hit lv 51.
