Ok so here is the scoop. Durraur my good friend and roommate here at the lovely University of Cincinnati Campus has as far as I'm concerned one of the best Bards on our server. He knows his shit, and by proxy I know mine to. (We do one thing that makes others drool we have his BRD Super-Plvl) But that's not the point, Durraur loves unusual subs and unusual party set-ups and is itching badly to hit 75 (he's been waiting on mine and gols poke-butts) Durraur is currently 62, I'm Taking lead for BLM and Gol is filling the tank/cure/refresh spot with his RDM. That gives us 3 open spots which I gladly extend to the ls first, so if you think you need BLM to 75 and can get it to around 62 by next month please post bellow. For those unfamiliar with ManaBurns I'll explain now. ManaBurns are always comprised of a BRD and 4 BLM then usually either a RDM or PLD. The goal of the game is to kill mobs as fast as possible by nuking them to death. Ever wonder when you'd use those super leet Arcane spells? Now's you chance. In this situation the RDM subs War, this provides an emergency voke. He refreshes the mages as normal, and uses the PLD curing off strategy if the mob starts running around. However this is the emergency plan. The bard pulls mobs to the party then "Sleep tanks" them while the mob is asleep blm prepare and cast simultaneously there ancient magic, thereby utterly destroying the mob. Other than a monk bone party this is possibly one of the fastest leveling parties. do the math for a second, 50+ BLM + BRD + RDM = Refresh heaven BLM can and from my research should start subbing SMN at 50 this gives them auto refresh from SMN so that 2MP per 3 sec, RDM Refresh is 3MP per tick = 5 MP per tick, Both Mages balled and Balled II = 8 per tick so every three seconds the mages will get 13MP Ancient magic is roughly 300 MP per shot, so down time standing is 24 x 3 = 72 seconds (this is all basing that the BRD isn't using the proper instruments, the blm isn't healing, and the blm doesn't have refresh gear himself)
SMN as a BLM sub: I've found the not only does SMN sub boost your MP and give you refresh, it also increases your net base int per lvl, gives you access to SMN pact abilities, and is useful for aggro) ne who
I'm 55 at the moment and gol is 56 i need G2 and plan to get it and resume lvling tomorrow. If this is a go, we can make it a static. Please let me know.
