BLM KS Farming

[spooky]

What’s everyone’s thoughts on the easiest way to farm KS solo on BLM?

Answers I’m not looking for:
- lolKS
- lolBLM
- lol
- level <insert another job here>
- exp/merit

I’m looking for purely the best KS/time solo on BLM. Thanks in advance for anyones thoughts in this.

I get them relatively often off of lesser Colibri right outside Al Zahbi. AFAIK they don't spit magic back at you. Dunno if that would work for you

honestly, i generally get the most KS while soloing puddings. i tend to average at least 1 per 1-1.5k xp, or every 3-5 mobs.

edit: er, i just saw you weren't interested in KS from exp/merit. then yeah, lesser colibri are probably your best bet. no they don't reflect magic, and they are aspirable. that said, at least on alexander, there's almost always people killing them outside of al zahbi.

BST pets in Newton Movathingy die fast and drop KS.

Gonna go with SM here, they are also one/two shot-able at worst. So.. assuming you can find a place with 2-3 bsts in a row.. (methinks you can) you should get the most bang for your buck here.

Having leveled my BLM almost exclusively on gobbie pets, i can verify they have a nice drop rate, but I also know that those 4 gobbie pets in newton are usually taken by BLM, BLU, or NIN soloing. The quick respawn time makes them particularly attractive & should most definitely be 1-shottable by a 75 (i could back in the late 60s with weather or day bonus proc). You'll just be hated by anyone looking to solo there.

i got a ton soloing 58-63 on fossorial fleas in aydeewa, guessing other chigoe spots would work too (although i'm not 75 so i could be way off, and other solo spots might be much better)...

Tonberry Elementals in Den of Rancor, easily one shotted with T3 spells.

Elemental drop seal? Never knew that.


Goblin's pet in bibiki and movalpolos both work fine. 1 mobs every minutes, decent seal drop rate.

i think my bs/ks thread got deleted when they switched servers.... but if you want easy seals, anywhere with a goblin pet is fine... you dont need multiple bst because you can only get 1 beastmen seal or kindred seal per 5min 1-6 players

Huzzar, thanks for the awesome info all. :D Looks like pets or flees are the way to go. My LS seems to be doing a lot of 99s lately, and I've had around 75 seals for ages. ; ;
Also I'd like to try more solo ODS. 0/2 :(

Anyone who would say that is completely daft. I had an amazing kindred seal drop rate when I leveled my second character from 50-60 BLM solo on Beastmen pets. BLM is one of the few jobs that is a total KS factory for their one-shotting ability.

I just wanted to cover all bases, you know what people can be like here. >.>
