Starting today, anytime I attend a linkshell event, I am only casting spells you get before level 25, since that is where people stop caring about putting blm in a party.

Well, everyone wants blm in endgame, just noone wants to help you get these levels. I have rdm and thf I could use in endgame if that were the problem, I just here "Come BLM" to dynamis, limbus, etc.

Yea i really feel bad for anyone leveling blm now. I was lucky enough to level mine back when not having a BLM in the party meant you party was going to suck hardcore. every pt was WHM RDM BLM TANK(preferably nin)and 2 DD.

Magic bursting every single mob. Now thats when blm leveling was fun. Sorry for all you new blm folks ; ;

Know what really sucks? Se didn't add any good blm camps. But you know what they did add? A trial on Firesday where everyone and their mother comes out and kills your flans for an hour.

Troll thread? This doesn't seem to have anything to do with endgame, just bitching about "the good old days". I don't see what's so great about them since a BLM will almost always get faster XP either soloing or manaburning once you're past the staves level. There's Vunk Inlet tiger burns you can sync to in the 50s and then tiger burns in Xarc S you can sync to from 61+. You also have MMM for powerful burns ~74+. And pet soloing will outpace pretty much any "normal" party except for birds and a few others.

Normal parties are boring too. You have to sit around waiting for the melees and tank to build up hate, and nuke gently like some Orastery trainee. You have to put up with their inconsistent WS timing which throws off your nuke timing. If you pull hate it's all ">:[ BLM" but when a melee blows his WS wad early and pulls hate it's like "XD cure pls lol". Solo and manaburn you shake what Shantotto gave ya and live on the edge of death. Exciting ***!

Totally *** doing this.

No, really. It's the only way I couldn't possibly die, no matter what event it is. No Sleepga = happy Raigne. Sleepga = dead Raigne, and once-again-level-75. -.-

Can make very easy exp as blm if you need in abyssea in an alliance just usually required to do some crown control then youre free to nuke all you like. Last night was only party I got from 75 to 80 blm for the last 5k and 20k buffer in abyssea just because I wanted it done already. I was quite happy to solo what I was soloing the whole way it makes gil too and you can pay minimal attention when soloing.

Anyways yeah abyssea rocks if you need xp as blm easily best xp youre gonna get now outside of smn burn which I dont personally like. I was getting 1895 water 5 on la theine birds, 2400 tornado2 on NM bird magic bursted was quite fun.

Blm should never complain about not doing endgame because of difficulty of getting xp, I have melee jobs too its probably harder to get xp on those before xp in abyssea was known than on blm. You should only stop doing endgame with your shell as blm if your reasons are only regarding the shell. Your ability to get exp in your own time to have 75s or 80s for ls events is your own responsibility w/e the job.

That's a good logic. That way you won't be wanted in parties OR in endgame, then all will be right with the world.

I knew it was supposed to be a joke but there was obviously some feeling there for you to make the thread so I posted what I felt neccessary. It actually gave you a suggestion where to xp if you bothered to read, kinda a reply to you saying there is "NO BLM CAMPS" just not exactly true since finding out about the increasing xp in abyssea.

It actually said no "added" blm camps. I know you can level sync. Abyssea isn't really a good place for solo, and, I am yet to get an alliance for abbysea (prolly try to d that on thf.) I was just out nuking puddings and had some time to kill during firesday and made a joke. I apologize, I shouldn't make jokes on such a serious forum. I am actually 10k from 80 now, so no big deal.
