If I play my BLM once a week or less, for procs or other worthless things I am not expecting to do much damage, yeah, I'm perfectly ok with that. I still haven't gotten BLM full+1 even, because I honestly don't care for the job, I used it for the time I was in abyssea, needed seals, and had no other seal party jobs. Now the only BLM I care about gearing up is my gfs, mine can rot.Quote:

I literally play my BLM the same amount of time but I have enough respect for it to gear it. Just because you barely play a job that doesn't mean you can just half gear it and think that it's acceptable.

Alternatively you could free up a ton of your precious inventory slots by simply not gearing it at all and showing up to events butt naked on it. -

Because if I level a job I actually take some pride in getting decent gear for it so I'm not useless on it?

Showing up on BLM without at least NQ elemental staves is like a Ninja showing up without any Ninja tools.

07-10-2012, 04:32 AMTrisscarI (as a career Blue Mage) don't go into a VWNM expecting someone who leveled Blue Mage just to fill the niche of Proc exploit to have Almace level 90 and all the bells and whistles that I have or any other long time Blue Mage has. As long as they have the skills and the actual spells I don't see the problem with them not having it. And since I'm not leveling Black Mage as a career I won't be wasting my time and/or effort to get Black Mage's bell and whistles when the scythe is good enough to get me by.Quote:

07-10-2012, 04:32 AMDemon6324236Let me correct you, elemental staves are the most basic and essential piece of equipment you can get for the job IF, you want to do damage. I cared nothing about damage, I cared about procs, I wanted gear, +1 and +2, BLM is easiest job to do that with especially as RDM is and was my main job which gave me many of the spells already along with some gear for it.Quote:

Later I plan to make trial Magic Acc staffs if that matters much once enfeebling changes, I have been putting them off for the reason of waiting on the verdict on that subject. -

itt: people who think that gimping their VW party is ok because it's not their main job. Hopefully they wont stick you on DoTs with that nice proc scythe you're wearing.
