Meh, I agree with Chasuro... what's the difference between skilling after a burn and skilling in a sync party? Eventually you're gonna hit a cap and just go skill in the tree anyway. You can't escape that tree T-T okay yes you can but you all know Martial Master rocks.

On a side note, if you pull slimes, you get Diaga'd. I farm them sometimes.

I wasn't aware Slime Oil only drops from Jellies in Korroloka. =o
no but it has the highest concentrations of slimes with the best drop rates. I farm there too.

Well, the main thing is it is rare to get invited to a pt to DD and use your Blood Pacts.

Jellies aren't mandatory in an af burn and are more difficult to pull so easily left to the people who farm slime oils.

With a kc rdm it usually comes out to about 30k/hr.

Edit: But that's with a leecher or two....

To me, it would be more impressive and praise worthy to play your job correctly and with skill than it would to say you leveled up legitimately through parties instead of astral burn or whatever.

I really don't care how you got to 75, but if you can carry your weight and then some, then it's all good. Otherwise, don't expect much from me or the EGLS for that matter.

Apparently it can be done with M.Kris and even Joyeuse. Interesting!

I do wish I had a KC though =P
They suck that way. lol12k/hr burns

Then you're doing it wrong

I've had RDM/PLD with joyeuse killing sheeps for our chigoe partys, we've been getting 40k + per hour, except for when sync was around lv 56-57. 52-55 though, atleast 40k per hour with Joytoy

Totally.. Just make sure you don't level sync at all! Ever! That'd make things too easy for you.

pld or rdm (anything capable of holding the sheep while JUST meleeing, to pop the chigoes faster) grabs a sheep outside nashmau, and just melees it with a multihit weapon. (kc preferably on account of the fastest possible ws's) everytime they ws on sheep, it pops a chigoe which a level synched party can get optimal xp on. after 5 chigoes pop, sheeps empty, get a new one.

SMN burns expensive? Why not just use your connections to find who's doing a smn burn soon and ask if you can join (either aas the syncee or as a SMN)

This thread yet again.. I've met idk how many people that have leveled their job legit and still either suck and dont know how to dress themselves or both.

I've smn burned a few jobs to 75 and I can say the ones I actively play are well geared, full merits, capped skills, all WS etc. To say you have to actively EXP a job to 75 to know how to play it is the such a load.

So if someone east ron burns a job to 75 are they better? They basically did the same thing. If you want to be good at your job at 75 you will be if you dont then you wont.

To answer the OP not sure if anyone actively charges for leech on Asura. People ask me often but honestly unless they are willing to pay 300K or more its not worth giving up my leech spot or a friend that I am letting leech. There was one person that charged 2mil for 37-75 but he asked for 2m up front. Needless to say he disappeared after a few people paid :s

The only thing about smn burn parties is gimped skills (and armor) which can easilly be caught up by:
skill up parties
Syncing to 10 levels above what your current skil is and skilling it up that way
and other ways.

For armor, it's a money issue instead of smn burn issue (seriously, do you expect me to find 200k total in the crap i get from drops? I can't make 200k in crystals from 1 exp party. In dynamis or BCNM or other end game crap, yeah i can but honestly, in exp parties you don't get much. Yeah farm farm farm but really, with so many people farming, the prices stagger from let's say 5k to 3k (and you always get the item when it's worth 3k right? and then you try selling for 5k and it doesn't sell til 2-3 weeks later) this is why many people RMT. If you jerks would lower the prices on those lvl 30 400k items, RMT would die out. (Especially Utsusemi scrolls. i mean christ! 100k for ichi which the quest is so damn easy and like 300k for ni which you can easilly do BCNM with a few friends and ask for it if it drops.)

None of you level jobs because you actually enjoy playing the jobs?

If its all about "rushing to 75 to get a bigger epeen" why not just buy an account with all 75's, take a min and feel accomplished and then just uninstall the game and move on with your life?

You can make the money back by selling the account with all 75's all missions, all gear back to someone else who needs a bigger epeen.

If you dont enjoy them then why even bother to lv them?

did i say i want it 75?

i want to be DNC/NIN (and when i'm NIN i get bugged to tank and i don't like tanking)

here let me rephrase that:
I don't enjoy playing jobs other people expect something different of.
Example: RDM main healer (lol they don't heal very well. they're main focus is ENFEEBLING MAGIC aka casting Dia, Paralyze, and so on with good accuracy as well as refreshing. Convert is what makes them main healers)

another Example: NIN tanks. If it wasn't for Utsusemi, they'd suck as tanks. They're more DD+Enfeeble instead of tanking. Do you really expect them to go thru 20k/party just to tank for 2 hours when they can use that stuff on other tools or DD equipment. (I mean they dual wield! DUAL WIELD!!!!!! WAR/WHM decently equiped can tank better than a NIN/WAR. This is coming from a WHM main job. NIN tanks are MP drainers more than WAR main as tanks. Hell DRK are better tanks than NIN.)

Oh, so having lv 75 RDM with the skills and experience of a lv 1 RDM is gonna benefit you how?

You'll land dia at best with your ENFEEBELING MAGIC lol, did you know that EG RDM's are mainhealing as well btw? you expect to show up to events casting paralyze only, because RDM is ENFEEBELING MAGIC job?

NIN tanks that are mp sinks are just bad player, and they sure as hell arent gonna get any better from smn burn their nin.

Well, If it wasn't for Cure spells, WHM would be horrible healers.

yeah then once pecky flurry ends, they get boned the next hit going from 100%hp to 1% hp when a war can make it from 50% to 45% in that hit.

I guess the problem people have are the leechers. I hate the leechers too. That's why I only have two of 3 people leech in my burns (myself being one of them).

I NEVER sell the leech spot. I get asked all the time if the leech spot is open and have to turn them away. I guess I'll have to put the leech spot up for 3 million per pull in my /seacom. Suckers welcome.

Syncs get rotated in and out. They get to skip the Dunes, that's a good thing, wouldn't you say?

I suppose botters are more acceptable than people that SMN burns according to everyone here.

i don't mind the dunes, i just don't really want to sit there lfp as NIN/DNC with seeking party comment as "I don't tank." then have people ASKING Me to tank. (already happened... and i'm only 14nin/7dnc) i swear people don't effing read.
