How to duo

[Don'Taru?]

I am currently Duoing right this second and we can't get a good rhythem... we are both level 15, any pointers? Basically, how do you duo bst?

hmm, not sure if it's something that can be described... you just kinda have to find it yourself.

for my wife and me, it took much dying :P eventually we settled with staggering our charms:

she charms and engages.
i search for a pet.
her pet dies she starts running the mob toward me and I engage with my new pet.
she goes out to find a new pet, repeat until mob is dead.
this way, only one of us is stuck with the xp penalty for having a pet and we alternate so the xp evens out.

maybe we are just at a slow spot, we are in Tahrongi canyon..

[neighbortaru]

ugh, we hated tahrongi. try ordelle caves

[Knumskull]

If you are duoing you should aim at mobs that are t++ to vt, for maximum of exp. You could try ordelle or try carpenters landing at the san d'oria entrance.

We could head to Buburimu ...but how should we go about fighting, should we both use pets, or just melee it ?

I'm on the Siren server, and I was duoing with my ls leader yesterday. We were doing really well by both subbing whm, and we used DC to EM pets and also attacked with our pets. We got very nice xp, and only wiped once due to a severe mischarm link in Eastern Altepa. :-P (I know Altepa is higher level that to what you are reffering, but the strat should work regaurdless) Pretty much: get as much dps as you can and power through enemies to get chains.
