I also happened to explain that EXPing on T and VT was viable in RoZ and CoP days. It was, still is and as opposed to raking in subpar EXP per hour in overcamped ToA zones, you could be getting it on T and VT in CoP or RoZ zones. the 10K+ EXP per hour didn't begin in ToA zones, I saw 20k an hour well before that. You can also check out the Beastmaster Anthologies on the BST forum, BLM happens to solo at very comprable levels to BST. Its just in any case with soloing EXP that you're going to feel a dry spell at some levels, so its not a problem unique to soloing BLM. | |

Since it's relevant, someone posted a soloing BLM guide on KI. It's actually got some good tips and VERY detailed camp spots, so I suggest anyone leveling BLM looking for stuff to do should check it out. *EDIT* Scratch that link actually, someone took the authors guide(gave credit and original link of course) and put it on Wiki, so its much easier to read. Plus it means you don't have to go to lolKI. So once again, check it out as the soloing tips are a good alternative if you can't get an invite but don't want to go back to town to craft. http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/Black_Mage_Solo_Guide

Just thought Id update this thread, as I recently tried this BLM solo thing on my 33 BLM seeming as I couldnt get or make a pt. So I went to The Sanctary of Whatever, and here are my experiences. I went as BLM/NIN - 1 for Dual Wield Solid Wands (+INT FTW) and also, more importantly, Shadows, ate Melon Pie for +INT. Went after the Goblin Leeches, and although I died a few (actually, quite a few) times, I would still recommend it. My deaths were down to bad luck and impatience. It took me, on average, 3 spells to kill a leech, for 200+ exp per go. I got chain 2 somehow with emp band for 375 - this as solo blm was amazing for me. I pulled with Stone II, making sure I was in an open spot, and followed by either Firaga then Blizzaga or Stone II again. I could rest and wait for the Gobby to resummon the Leech again, and by the time it done that, I had recovered most of the MP spent. I could also do 2 full kills without resting. Id say of 20 leeches I killed, i got about 4 resists which got me killed. The other deaths were due to bat aggro, and twice was me HP'ing back to the OP, and not checking coast was clear so dieing again from aggro :p Definately a fun experience.

I hit 75 BLM way back in 04, so when ToAU came out, i thought what the hey, I would go explore some. While in my exploration I came across a few T mobs, and yeah it kicked in, before I knew it I had sleep off, and was nuking, then stun sleep and finish nuked. It felt good and before long I was out there just killing for merits, or getting xp back from a past Dynamis run or sky run.

For lvl 55-58 you should type this. /sea all 53-57 and press enter and you will get everyone on your server at those lvls around your present lvl 53-57. Then create your own party out of the people seeking. If you learn to put parties together your experience ingame will be better as you will not have to wait so much, you control your own destiny, and you can see clear as day your chances at even getting a party cuz you can see everyone you could possibly party with righ there. You will probably find yourself oftenly surprised when you see whole good parties that can be put together in perfect lvl range all just seeking. Someone has to do it right? | |

Goblin Trader pet Spiders in Eastern Altep (near the Outpost, set HP there). Guide suggests Pso'Xja CryptonBerry Elementals after iirc, but I went duoing Pet Rabbits at Cape Terrigan up to 42.

| I am acctually you!! Bronze Ribbon of Service | Re: List of Solo Spots
I know this is a necro but was wondering about PSO XJA uncapped camp ive heard about, has anyone tried this. Currently I am working in Cape Terrigan, but there is lots of danger (rapotrs, crabs, gobs, cokatrice, rabits). I get about 2 kills per death, so roughly staying at the same level. I am BLM/NIN 56+26INT Takes me me 3-4 teir 2's or 3+ teir 1(drain) By the time I get them down I get aggro from something else and die. Its driving me nuts.

I know a buddy and I were duoing Gob Pets in Cape Terrigan, we would 2 shot them, one spell from each of us and it was pretty much dead. If one resisted, the other usually got it. But I think this was 30's to 40's, don't remember the exact level.

My Mood: | Re: List of Solo Spots I was able to get parties with my BLM until I hit about lv60. After that it was tough because ToAU had come out and drained all the melee jobs, but I did manage to get a few parties here and there. 60-62 is good in Aydeewa, 64-66 can party up @ Mt. Z, and after that you can sometimes get an invite for the camps out near Azoupe Isle (yeah.. a BLM vs. Imps is rough, bring lotsa echos).
