    honestly, think of how much time you've saved leeching to 90. It took me months to get my first job to 75. So my suggestion? even if it takes forever to skill up, do it, and max it out. you already saved time leveling, might as well earn it by making sure you're skilled and know how to use your job

    Once an opinion is read unchallenged, it's as good as fact.....

    Leeching gives people with not much left to do...something to do and another job to grind out some gear on. I don't have a problem with leeching in itself really, I hate how the leeching system ruins the XP party system outside of Abyssea but thats something else.

    String has a minor advantage in range for horde but you lose some accuracy, I only ever used it for the PUK ENM thingy cause I kept missing some of the puks using wind. Really there is no serious reason to bother with string and for gear I would go all out on magic acc/wind skill/singing skill cause all they are truely good for anymore is landing the correct threnody.

    Nothing wrong with full perle for new players. It's not great, but is acceptable for those without af3. The other two sets however are worthless as full sets (except precast teal for the fast cast), and under no circumstances is it ok to be wearing them.

    Abyssea leeching didn't ruin exping outside abyssea. People not wanting to exp outside abyssea ruined exping outside abyssea.

    I find if you leech a job to 90, then go skill up for a day or 2 to cap stuff, then spend another day learning about the job by reading and asking questions, its much faster then then 'Exping the real way,' and it accomplishes the same thing. You should all stfu and be happy he's trying to learn the job instead of 'ZOMG YOU LEECHED TO 90 YOU FAIL'
