Lowkey of Valefor. I started playing the game back in '04, and bst was probably the least appealing job to me back then. Then one day I was in the maze, getting ready to lvl my blm on worms, when someone trained a bunch of goblins and skeletons to the entrance. Luckily a nice JP bst happened along, and expertly took care of the train for us, and then began raising people. I decided then and there that the job was the awesomest ever, and it's been my favorite ever since.
Xilk of Ramuh, soon to be of Bahamut, formerly of Gilgamesh and even distantly of Fairy.
lately I'm testing jug pets to find just how powerful they are. Trying to make the wiki as helpful to all the bst out there.

My favorite current pet is Lucky Lulush.
I started out not knowing which job i wanted to play so i systematically lvled most of them to 50. When i got to beastmaster i fell in love and it has been my main ever since.
My favorite solo so far was: either draketrader Zlodgodd back at lvl 75 or Resheph today. Both were very action packed difficult fun solo's.

Which Gilga PetLs are you referring to? There have been several. I caught the tail end of petcemetary before it died, and also the short-lived.... dang it was shore-lived enough, I don't remember the name...

Hey Everyone!
Stefiki is my main char, ive been on Sylph for about 8 years now but didnt lvl BST till 2006. My BF and i duo'd together from lvl 20-75, then abyssea on up. I also did my Maat fight as BST main, defeated him with a good ol Panzer Galahad. I also lvl a 2nd char when im bored named Seyton, also BST main. My favorite Jug is Crafty Clyvonne, but i love charming leeches. :)

Hello! BST is a job so nice, I decided to level it twice! Taru and Glaka BST in Gilgamesh -> Carbuncle.
You guys have other 90 jobs? Good, I don't. Don't need 'em. I accidently leveled something else to 90 once, then I deleveled it promptly!
Anyhoo.. yeah. Beastmaster, devoted as can be.
I remember some of you Gilgamesh BST's. Traitor's! Don't matter now anyhow. Enjoy our new homes, make new friends, play the BST.

Hello BST :).
This is Katra of Leviathan.
A quick summary: I started playing XI at the PS2 release, but I didn't play BST seriously until a few years ago, which was a few months prior to the patch that removed the exp penalty from keeping charmed pets at the end of fights. BST was actually my first job to 75, although RDM was my first job to break 70. Although I broke 70 with RDM, I had so much fun leveling BST, at that time it was around level 13, I took it straight to 75.
BST had also made me a fan of pet jobs in general. When I started, I preferred playing as mage types, and since RDM gave me a bit of everything, that was my first main. But BST gave me a sense of freedom and satisfaction not experienced with the other jobs, and as such, it became my main, and has remained such ever since.
Go BST. :cool:

I'm from Shiva server. Started on Bahamut as Kingofkings, and Felinus on Lakshmi (yes, I was a manthra. Get over it. >.>) I've had two characters on Shiva, my abandoned elvaan Crispin (seriously, after failing Gravity on a Bat mob with capped enfeebling skill, I just had enough) and my current hume. I've had pretty much all Maat jobs to 60+ before ToAU came out, but hadn't really touched BST yet. Skip forward a few years, then Level Sync comes out. I start getting in the WORST pt's I've ever been in, and say fk it. I got sick of them so I took BST from 24-75 w/o changing jobs. It was a fun experience, since I love to solo anyhow. My most memorable solos were Amemet at 63, Ose at 71, Lord of Onzozo at 73, and I was probably one of the first to try and beat All-seeing Onyx eye on Shiva as BST. Went back later and did it as RDM/BST. That job combo was amazing before abyssea came out. Probably helped that I had like 73 or w/e the base was +79 CHR for charm set as a RDM. xD Good luck fellow BST's here's to hoping we have many more years ahead of us! And to hoping we actually get to Charm something in abyssea at some point. >.<b

Oh, I just have to add that I soloed Hakutaku on RDM/BST while raising an alliance that died to him while I was farming the eyes. Had 3 links at one point and ate x2 Firaga III from one of the mobs AND Haku at the same time. Still survived. Good times.

Valefor, April 04, started bst sometime in june.
one of my more favoured jobs, It's gotten me alot of unique gear, and active in studying game mechanics, memorized mob aggro distances, active in forums - includes many /tells over the years "can you tell me how to play bst". interesting situations like bst on ouryu. Kiting with charm.
used to run around with a linkshell called PlanetCaravan, run by Danji, with special folk such as Hamsum, Karichi, Endoq, Uppy i think... Urgit? Scarz. i may be mixing names from other LS's here. one of those very rare pet-job LS's at the time.

I was never in the LS but I remember some of those names. Urgit helped me and my old duo partner Truls with some of our AF, I remember Endoq helping me with somethings as well. There was another BST I remember being really helpful, Luthiene (sp?)

Hello! BST is a job so nice, I decided to level it twice! Taru and Glaka BST in Gilgamesh -> Carbuncle.
I did the same except when Made my Linkshell for beast and summoners only, I made my second Bst and named him same as my shell Bestienmeister(Galka), I leveled him without doing subjob quest and after he was lvl 75 for 18 months and after i getting Thf to 75 and Nin to 70.
I finally gave in and did the quest.
Beastmaster has been my favorite job since I started leveling it in Feb 2004.
Gennadi
03-25-2011, 10:08 AM
Hello fellow Feral Fiends, this is Gennadi (90 BST) formerly from Remora and now in lovely Leviathan. The reason i found Beastmaster so appealing was the ability to solo it to any level i wished. When i finally got to 75 using flies VS imps in the mire i was ecstatic, i finally reached the pinnacle.
But then hitting 80 and finding no real camps i had to rethink what it was to be a BST. Having to use our new jug pets to fight alongside made the transition hard at first. I missed the endless hours of charming, releasing and re-charming to pick away at the last few remaining % of the mobs hp.
But now at 90 and able to solo many NM's with the proper atmas in Abyssea it has been a fun ride so far. The climb to 99 and finding out what BST can really do with new maxed out merits and any newer atmas SE throws at us will be very exciting indeed.
Ive always said the best thing about leveling up is that your able to revisit zones you had trouble with before. So at 99 i'm going to pay a visit to many nm's , hnm's that i just couldn't solo before.
BST POWA!!!!!

Hey to all my fellow BSTs out there, when I started in the summer of '06 I couldn't stand BST. They always took then camps my pt was in and would clean shop before we could keep any good chains going. Then in '08 I got the solo bug like I'm sure a lot of ppl got before they lvld BST. Once I realized what kind of damage I could do in Valkurm Dunes I was hooked. Before I knew it I was soloing Imps in Caedarva Mire at 65 with no problem. Parties would TRY to take the hill camp from me but they were no competition for me and my pet.
I have to agree with Kytaru. BST gave me a sense of freedom. I, for the most part, didn't have to worry about other players. I could pretty much go where I wanted and take my time doing whatever I wanted. Generally if ppl saw me at a camp they would turn and walk away. If they didn't however, all I had to do was step it up just a little and I could easily out camp them. Life is just more fun as a BST. I can't wait to see what SE has in store for us BSTs for lvls 90-99.
Hey everyone Dadi here originally from Kujata, merged to Valefor. Always up for some Duo or Trio kill fests.

Hello you Beasts!!
I am Bulrogg the pellucid of Carbuncle, born and raised there. Ninja since 2005 but I have just learned the joys of being charming in Vana'diel. There's just something about having others do your will that I enjoy... seems kinda regal <.<
Just wanted to send a warm welcome to all you Gilgameshians that will be coming our way. I'm still learning the ropes on BST but am having fun while doing it. :) Feel free to suggest any tips/advice.
