I dunno if this is happening on all servers or just Bahamut, But there seems to be a HUGE amount of BLM's recently... Also after speaking to afew BLM's they have told me they used to wait afew hours for pt's max now there waiting days n days for pt's.....
I was actualy considering changing from SMN to BLM but after hearing all of this info from the BLM's it's put me off big style...
Was wondering what other servers are like with this problem? | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 10-05-2006, 04:53 AM | #2 (permalink) | | anti-spam Super Moderator Join Date: Jan 2004 Posts: 5,534 Style: Dark - Version 5 My Mood: Thanks: 21 Thanked 64x in 59 Posts Gil: 40,353 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 40,353 Donate | Re: BLM & Parties. yeah, hello ToAU and melee burn. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 10-05-2006, 04:56 AM | #3 (permalink) | | Digital Wizard Super Moderator Join Date: Aug 2003 Location: Florida, USA Posts: 5,992 Style: Light - Version 6 My Mood: Thanks: 69 Thanked 458x in 301 Posts Gil: 194 Bank: 82,157 Total Gil: 82,351 Donate | Re: BLM & Parties. The BLM forum here has a front page littered with posts like this. BLMs are currently completely unwanted in XP parties aside from manaburns from 62+ (the first level where you can really put a dent in ToAU enemies).

Yeah, I've put levelling BLM on hold for a while. It's true that it's difficult to find parties these days but from Lv60 onwards BLM can solo for fairly good XP in ToAU areas, even though it's slower than a regular XP party. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 10-05-2006, 07:53 AM | #7 (permalink) | | King of the Oompa Loompas Oracle of Knowledge Join Date: Nov 2005 Posts: 3,339 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 10 Thanked 115x in 94 Posts Gil: 24,452 Bank: 35,810 Total Gil: 60,262 Donate | Re: BLM & Parties. Despite the many idiotic moves SE's made in the past move, this is not holding me back. I'll do whatever's necessary to hit 75 with my blm. Period.

Edit> Oops I gotta say something on topic
OP, The way I see it if you really enjoy the job it's only a matter of time before you get to 75.
Plus if you are just starting with BLM by the time you get to the 60's SE might've already made changes to improve BLM's situation with xp parties. ^^ | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 10-05-2006, 08:22 AM | #9 (permalink) | | Fence Sitter Brain of Knowledge Join Date: May 2006 Location: UK Posts: 1,342 Style: Dark - Version 5 Thanks: 53 Thanked 90x in 68 Posts Gil: 3,652 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 3,652 Donate | Re: BLM & Parties. Its not brilliant on Bahamut, but I am managing to move forward at a reasonable pace - 63-68 mainly soloing (apart from an idiot who invited me to a party on colibri). I have a duo partner from now on though, so even easier.
Its what you make it - its not easy, but screw SE and their TP burn parties, I want 75 blm, and I am gonna get it.

Don't let what people tell you about blm stop you. The only reason I am going slower than I was is because I am waiting on my duo partner - he is NA, I am EU (though both in same ls) - we duo for a few hours whenever we can. It suits us.
It also gives me time to merit inbetwen for the 8574624987609 merits I need...
