Bst/Run?

Just asking based on a couple of Axes I've seen. Have not looked into Run at all yet. Is there anything that would make this a viable Sub?

Nope.

There's really not a whole lot that can beat /DNC for general usage.
Biggest issue I see outright is a lack of substantial healing, and there's also the issue of no Dual Wield, which affects both your damage and your pet's survivability. Anything that could possibly require that much Magic Defense against is something no BST should be meleeing.

Thought so.


...and that's the reason I figured why. Not surprised but thought I'd ask. Thanks.

Just curious what axes inspired the thought.

Not actually thinking of bst/run at all, just curiousity. /dnc should be glued to your bst pretty much.

Aalak' Axe and another I can't remember now that looked "OK" for Bst. I saw that Run could them, then put 2+2 together and made 5.

I know that this game doesn't often make sense with which weapons are available to which jobs, but I haven't looked at Run at all yet, for main or sub.

blu/run has bit more posabiltys and as far bst ya basically /dnc though with new areas especially reive /nin and /whm are making a come back. Maybe /sch to.

I'll tell anyone who's prepared to listen that I use BST/WHM 90% of the time personally.

Well actually probably 10% of the time in actual fact. But 90% of the time when doing anything on BST itself other than farming.

All my farming mules end up BST/DNC purely because of what I farm. Magic aggro-ing mobs shall we say?
And the easiest way to guarantee no magic casting.. Is to have no magic to cast.
I've accidently magic aggroed mobs so often it's not funny. Which is why I leveled DNC sub on them all and went /DNC.

For general peace of mind and ease of wandering around in stupid places as a BST farming/mining/missions/quests/whatever, /WHM is a far easier sub in my opinion.
