People, stop cutting down WHMs and saying it's harder to level to 10 with them.

I used mithkabob on my WHM and hammered shit down to nothing. It was easier than BLM, that's for sure ...

Thank you! With Mithkabobs and a hammer you hit just as hard as a WAR actually. You can even use Meat Jerky, its cheaper >.>

Re: Job for a newbie

I take if food is extremely important in FFXI eh? Anyways, I have a question too! I'm making a warrior as my main class, but I can only get a sub at 18 right? I think sweetkitty mentioned before to become a monk first, any particular reason?

Re: Job for a newbie

MNK is probably the best sub at early levels due to it's boost to hp and vit. At lower levels WARs often tank and need the extra vit and hp. So if you wanna be a WAR main, I would do MNK > 18, subjob quest, WAR/MNK>30~37. From there you can unlock your next subjob, NIN.

And yes, food can make a major difference in your performance.

Re: Job for a newbie

Hmm.. I was planning on goin War/Mnk to 30 then getting some people to help with the Dragoon quest and go Drg/War for a bit. My ultimate goal will probably be Drg/Drk.

Re: Job for a newbie

I wouldn't suggest DRG/DRK... but DRG/WAR is an excellent combo. For more info and DRG subs, go to the dragoon forum and read the sticky's at the top of the forum.

Of course I'm not saying NOT to do DRG/DRK, because I have actually played it. It's fun and different but not quite the best combo. If I recall correctly, ther is even an entire thread dedicated to DRG/DRK in the dragoon forums.

Re: Job for a newbie

Well, I'm too lazy to go to the Drg/Drk thread right now, but why is /Drk not as good as /war for a dragoon as a sub?

Re: Job for a newbie

You lose things like Double Attack and Berserk.

Re: Job for a newbie

Why use double attack when you can use Penta thrust! But the loss of Berserk might screw a Drg over damage wise eh?

[bikkebakke]

Re: Job for a newbie

Double attack is a passive ability. Penta Thrust is a weaponskill. Double attack just kicks in to give you an extra hit.

Re: Job for a newbie

U can always use penta thrust with a polearm (just better if ur a drg since u have a A rating on it).

There should be a sticky on the drg section with pro/con of each sub jobs, so u should check there first.

Re: Job for a newbie

.... Ok now I HAVE to become a Drg/War, didnt know double attack was passive! Thanks for the info. :D
