I have to say it's one of the better jobs to leech up, for that reason, Blu 1-81 is nothing like Blu 81-90.

Pup is painful to skill up even without having to do so after leeching...
Throw in leeching and it just amplifies it.
I solo'd my pup form 1-75 and still came no where close to capping skills on my melee and ranged puppets, and I was trying. One of the main issues being the frequency at which the puppet actually fires it's crossbow. Other than the drum magazine there's not much you can do to reduce that delay really. Imagine trying to skill up Elemental Magic Skill, when all you have is ancient magic...
And you can't jam a nickel in your keyboard and spam summons like summoners can either...

SO yeah, I'd say pup is the most painful job to leech up.
Didn't factor in learning curve on Pup...there's definitely more to it than most jobs from what I've read...and prolly the reason it will be the last thing i level...lol. But to me it's still blu....learning spells is a chore when ur blu magic skill is near capped...what a nightmare it would be wit gimp skill. it's the reason my BLU30 won't set foot in abbyssea till 70.
