BLM The Begining Levels ;\

[Ophannus]

Bind+Nuke is the way to go until like level 20. Just pull with your best nuke, bind, let the recast time cook for a few seconds, nuke again. Soloed T bunnies at a low level i remember in valk. Korroloka worms=good too

In leveling BLM from 1 to 18, I learned a few things:
1. EASY PREY
2. do NOT aggro other mobs
3. Bind, bio, poison, nuke IN THAT ORDER
4. don't kill alone as tarutaru ><

I managed to die 12 times in one day. XD
Tarutaru zombie indeed.

bind, then poison, THEN bio. Bio gives initial damage, meaning it could break the bind. Poison does not.

But to be honest, until level 24 (and /NIN) I'd suggest pulling with a nuke and meleeing on high EP/ low DC mobs, using juices/milks, or partying. Dunes/Qufim parties will still take a BLM.

well today was rather epic.
I setup my first Manaburn PT
went from level 11 -> 20 in about 2 hours
which I personally think is fast for the dunes

I'm finding BLM alot more fun then it used to be
and I'm still learning the ropes, I really hope I can take
this job to 75 and endure the long road it takes to complete
it. ^^

Ok!

That could explain all those deaths...

I have gotten to the point where i level on Vomp Hill in South Gustaberg until i ding 14 and some mobs become too weak. You can hit lvl 7-14 on that hill in 1 sitting, and only get killed if you are borderline stupid. Keep in mind i have a 2nd acct with RDM75 i dont even bother to bring bc its not needed!

This is the guide i usually use for solo'ing jobs. I know its a ranger guide but its pretty easy to adapt it to different jobs.

Ranger Solo Guide - FFXIclopedia - a Wikia Gaming wiki

EDIT - I know on the guide it says to keep widescan on the pixie's that are near, but once you've got used to the area you'll know the area's the pixies roam.

Here's another good guide for BLM and RDM solo: Black Mage Solo Guide by Lion heart - FFXIclopedia - a Wikia Gaming wiki

If you have pup to lvl 10 and a bunch of attachments /pup is retardedly broken

ur puppet has stoneskin of 100 dmg, blaze spikes, blink, regen, etc. at level 1. can deploy ur pet with the right maneuvers up and walk away.
