Best Combo
I'm bored so I'm making a topic... What do you think, out of the following jobs, are the best combonations?

Monk
Thief
Dark Knight
Samurai
Dragoon


Please don't add in any jobs, I know WAR is the best melee sub job most of the time, that's not the point of this. Looking forward to seeign some peoples opinions!

I think Monk as main and Thf as sub would be a nice combo... Monks are damage dealers while you can make a lot of gil with the Thf's abililties... and no to mention at high levels, monk can sometimes attack 3's with kick and can heal themselves with chakra... and the best part is that they are both basic jobs... so you don't even need to do those expansion quests....

Yeah, I plan on being a Thief/ Monk then a Dark Knight/ Thief when I get that high. I like the other jobs listed to though and want to play them some. Anyone else?

I think outta those five a SAM/THF would be best combo.(and probly do more dmg then DRK/THF. SAMS have about the same ATK. Anyway, you could get TP up fast with SAM and then use NIN WS to do major dmg. Not too mention good money with THF ablilites(which i dont think you could use unless u make THF ur main) but still...

Drg/Sam works good, but only when they are really high levels. As for the Drk, personally i think id wont work very good without warrior

At lvl 60+ THF/SAM would be viable since you get Silent Concentration or whatever the ability that regens your TP every minute is called.

Correction, 3 minutes. And it only gives 60% as a sub, in small intervals, so you still have to wait for it. Also, your backstab damage takes such a huge cut, it's soooo not worth it.



DRK75 / THF37 / WAR37 / RDM60 / BLM31 / PLD11

But you could get in at least 2-3 Viper Bites with SC. Use SC=60% TP then attack 4 times and get 100 use VP then keep attacking and going like that you most likely get 2 or maybe 3 VB's in one fight.

Or you could do the same damage with one. Also, 8 hits not 4, and after 60 it's dancing edge not viper bite. You'll shit your pants and cry in joy and happiness when you learn dancing edge :p
