Everyone Talks ABout BAD Combos; What are the good 1s?

[lastcorona]

I just wanted to know what your opinions are on the best combos of jobs. Main Job / Sub Job and y u think so.... tell us ur reasoning.:eek:

[Sirius Black]

- Warrior - /Monk /Thief /Samurai
- Monk - /Warrior /Thief
- White Mage - /Black Mage /Summoner
- Black Mage - /White Mage /Summoner
- Red Mage - /Black Mage /White Mage
- Theif - /Warrior /Ninja /Samurai
- Paladin - /Warrior
- Dark Knight - /Warrior /Thief
- Beast Tamer - /Warrior /Red Mage
- Ranger - /Ninja /Warrior
- Bard - /White Mage
- Summoner - /White Mage /Black Mage
- Samurai - /Warrior
- Ninja - /Warrior /Thief
- Dragoon - /Warrior /Thief

There are some other good combos, but these are the "undisputed" good ones, if you want to know why go read the boards for each job.

In theory that list is good but you need to take into account abilites and shit that come into play at various levels. Samurai sub sucks until 60, Thief until 30 (arguably 60) etc. There isn't any point in a WHM subbing SMN unless they have a majority of the summons and even then it isn't that good until 50. Also THF/SAM is terrible.

WHM/SMN huge ass MP boost, MP auto refresh passive, it's good

BLM/SMN = stupid and lame

RDM/SMN arguably makes up for the MP shortage, but it's not popular

SMN/anything other than WHM = stupid and lame

NIN/THF NIN's attack sucks, subbing thf doesn't do jack for it.

DRG/THF can't do enough damage in 1 hit for it to be worth it because yokodama's wait time is too long, drg is kinda like sam, have to hit fast.

SAM/THF WSs don't do enough damage in 1 hit for it to work, has to hit fast, so sub thf doesn't work

Something not listed: BRD/RDM = can sing songs faster, good

DRG/SAM sam is better than war sub for DRG cuz it doesn't do that much damage individually, has to connect WS's fast.

Also, where you can sub RDM, you can always sub WHM. Other than that, sirius pretty much has it all covered

I don't know when they changed it but we proved last night that SAM gets Penta Thrust on its own now.

Oh, guess I didn't read that far :p But still, waiting 1 minute between WS's is just stupid for SAM.

Umm giving reasons for jobs combos being crappy is fine, but dont say "stupid and lame" that just says nothing.

Also whats the huge difference between the SMN/WHM and SMN/BLKM? I think both would work good
