View Full Version : Solo spots 65+?

I'm wondering where black mages are soloing past 65 (we all know party invite rates suck past 60). Personally, I'm doing the hobgoblin animaler's pets for nice 160-200 base exp & regularly chaining #3, but unfortunally the camp is usually occupied and if not, it will be if I happend to die (crit that goes through stoneskin -> interupted -> eats shadow from blink -> try to cast -> interupt -> eats last shadow. After that I will only survive if I'm lucky with my timing/use manafont).
Another enemy I know is those Qiqirn Enterpriser mobs, but they take way too long to kill for my liking.
I tried Mamool Ja Pikeman's Wyvern (found a nice camp), but Mamools are changing places too fast to pull (goblins were moving about every 10s. These probably about every 5s. Might be possible with some fast magic, but I prefer to make 500+ dmg with the pulling spell).
So, any other camps anyone could recomend?
Oh yeah, and my whm is the only leveled sub I have. I know I should start working on rdm at some point, but meh, I'm lazy. Both my elemental & enfeebling are capped (Sleep has got resisted only once ever on those gob pets). Enchanting is 130 or so.

Duo the Enterpriser Mobs its pretty damn good exp with a partner, i did this alot, we even took on the Leiuter(sp) in the room with AM sleep > AM. But it is slow solo with /whm and dont even think of the thief mob.
At 68-71ish There is a different entrance in Wajaom Woodlands that gets you to Archeaoligists which is the same deal, Really good exp With a Good Duo Partner and slow Solo but still good exp per mob.

ps. I think you can tell which ones are with exp ring on :)

Best enterpriser spot is the Blue Mage Room (job unlock area). There are 6-ish in an area without aggro.
Archaeologist entrance is entrance 8 on this map (http://www.ffxi-atlas.com/maps/wajaom-woodlands/general/). Just be sure you sneak up when you run past the Slime Molds just past the first two Qiqirn.
There are also worms in those areas that you can Aspir-and-run. Helpful to do just before you rest. You can also silence-nuke those guys for exp when you're out of Qiqirn. Just be careful, because they link. Stonega 3 isn't fun.

Low tier bst pets in Newton Molvalopos?
By 75, you will want your rdm sub done - Mount Zhalyom is heaven for blm and you need gravity for them (the Qiqirn rangers you don't need to bother with grav, they just stand there).

Thanks for the hints. I know I need the rdm sub done, but yeah... I also found another spot for qiqirn rngs: Alzadaal Undersea Ruins (from staging point, just open north door and follow path. There is 3 IT qiqirn there. Probably level 78 or so. Should be great duo exp.

Out of curiousity, what's the name of those Qiqirn?

I'm assuming they are lvl 76-78 mobs. I was duoing there with another blm (65) as blm66 for a while and only once we didn't get capped exp (10 levels difference = 288 base exp. 11 levels difference = 318 exp).

I don't know. I went there and was getting 323-ish exp with sanction and no ring at BLM71. Finished out to BLM72, got a buffer, now I need to get my RDM sub up to par so I can start on Puddings. Heck, I have to do lots more before I level again. Gear, spells, subjob... gah!

323 exp with sanction would mean 280 base exp. That's 5 levels above you (=lvl 76). Anything higher than that you can only know that it's 7 levels or higher than you from just the exp you recieve if soloing (base exp cap is 300. Mobs that are 7 levels higher than you will always give 300 base exp due to that).
gl with that rdm :). I still have a bit of mercy time left...
