Pretty much this. Work on building stones and join any groups doing zone bosses or shit like Razed Ruins. I'll post some pics of my BST later but it's nowhere near close to how I want it. :?

Since you already have BST at 75 you can make a good head start on some axes.

http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Axe_Trials

I went with Farsha obviously but I'm also working on an OAT Axe and I already finished a pair of these as well.

Image

If you want some good info on gearsets then try this link also..

http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/22227 ... et-advice/

I pretty much have most of what those people are suggesting. Still need a Demonry Core but that's when I decide to get unlazy and solo some in Dynamis.

Also i can's stress this enough but work on a Reward Build. SE really really buffed it hardcore and Reward is totally worth a shit now.

This is gonna be your best Jug Pet. Fuck dealing with Charm anymore. While you can still Charm mobs outside of Abyessa, Jug pets actually ended up being much better overall.

This one for example..

Image

It's cheap. *around 5k a stack* has a lot of HP, Double Attacks, Crits, Nice TP moves and overall a solid pet you can use at level 76.

Image

Hunting NMs with it. The Sheep destroyed this thing so fast it wasn't even funny.

Image
Decided to solo this and got this...

Image

This jug pet will probably make you never want to be on THF again since I know you loved BST a lot.

Image

This is actually the 1st THF type pet made. It has Gilfinder, High Evasion, Decent HP and Treasure Hunter. It's been semi-tested but the general idea is that it's TH2 at best.

The trade off is tho this guy is about 85k to 100k a stack so I only bring him out when I'm killing a NM or farming items. It's a solid pet with some good TP moves as well.

I went into Garliage and solo'd a NM on THF and even with full TH it took me 11-13 tries to get this..

Image

Also look into doing the mini-exspansions for pet -PDT on the head and Accuracy and Attack on the Body.

And just for added interest Colenzo's Corsair...

Image

Image

85 Armageddon. I have to admit it's a nasty nasty weapon.

/bow thank you SNK. You rock, thanks for the links and advice. So hype right now lol.

I did a dynamis yesterday with a bst with those pets. He pretty much took care of everything.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NhLzU_60j78

The video gets blured on the second half, and the show I was watching on the pc was recorded with it via sound, doh. Learning as I go.

I'm still working on macros now, going to do bst today. I think I'm set for abyssea, just gotta start collecting stones, and do that thing to have them ready sooner.

Lol Dhil. I'm glad it's less stressful now. Can hop on and do stuff. No waiting on dynamis, and it's kinda fun now. It feels like you're just fooling around rather than a 3 hour serious business deal.

The main thing holding me back from getting that was rdm jse. I got the rdm's quest first and never got the subligar for it (Darn RDM between the other formors had people scared). Guess I'll look it up now.

Also I was still pretty much using only rare/ex stuff that I couldn't give away in that video. After that dynamis I was able to buy my scorp harness, and dragon harness back.

It's because there is really no other better tp body piece until AF3. Almost every 90 job inculding BST can easily hit the haste cap now with shit like this which is easy to get..

Image
Image

And I finally got this thing last night...

Image

My Swift belt finally is sucking on dirt.

All these options pretty much shit on things like KA which is pretty ballin.

Oh and the new Synergy Augments really give you a chance to get shit like this... >_>

Image

Oh and ya gotta love that JP Button!

God I want that Armada like that...

lv 77, I need skill upz. I forgot how skill up work. I think I may have been trying to skill up on something too high above my level (Abyssea) and hardly ever got any points during the whole thing.

I'm back to doing ok. Got good gear and nice daggers. Just can't really fight anything high level yet. My dagger skill has been uncapped for 5 levels, and I don't see how I'm going to go back to leveling nin for cap. Think I'm trying to do too much at once. At least I know not to touch the other jobs yet. Need more dynamis coin farmin.

Image

Did swift belt nm, no drop. Don't feel like farming fomor hate right now, and codex don't ever drop.

Those are some pretty nice daggers for a start but, unless you get something with +DMG on them then keep trying.

I have one with DMG+7 Crit Hit Rate+3%

Also I cannot stress this enough. Get a pair of these.

Image

I shit you not it's so easy to get these and they are amazing for solo tanking.

Here's a link of how to get them.

http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Dagger_Trials

Ah Dhil, I know you have a haut but SE decided to make camping Khim worthless.

Image <_>lol

All in all Ploid you're looking good. If there's one Atma you need to get it's Atma of the Razed Ruins. It's going to be a major staple for all your DD jobs so if you see any shout for it, Get it.

P.S. Say hello to your new WS body....

Image

I'll give you some more tips later oh and Colenzo told me to say hi & come to Carbuncle to play childern's videogames with us. lol

I don't get to go in abyssea much for a lot of curor. I went 2 times, next time I get more I'll try for better daggers. That Kila +2 looks very good, crazy amount of evasion.

Aww man people are on Carbuncle? Wait, not all fairy are on Sylph, or did you guys choose to be over their with that server change feature.

Khim was only ever good for getting PLD's that didn't have Haut to leave the shell anyway.

I didn't even use my haute that much. /nin its pretty much useless except in an "Oshit" setup.

Good for /rdm though... but that was rare.

Man, its a good thing I deleted everything FFXI related from my pc or I'd probably be back already.

Believe it or not a lot of Fairy people ended up here to my amazment. I chose to be here to hang out with people I knew and it ended up being a good choice. The group I'm with is pretty laid back and we keep ourselves pretty busy.
