Full time sharpshot the last 3 months mainly because its underskilled. When I was leveling in a party I stuck to rdm whm or blm so hes fully skilled with magic. Hes capped melee on Sharpshot but havent touch Valorsedge at all. Low levels this frame was just too weak so never been out since. Probably finish capping range then try it again. Dont have any problems with keeping the sharpshot frame alive mainly due to him standing off the mobs while I tank it.

I sharpshot for just about everything other than soloing. Not saying the other frames aren't used ever, just sayin' more often than not Sharpshot is my go-to guy.

If I can dd freely without caring for hate, SR is my favourite. It's the one that pulls out the most damage.
SS is the one I use the most cause for soloing/lowmanning is often the one I actually need.
When I have a healer and I'm tanking stuff I use VE(cause most likely it's a nm with aoe abilities).

Haven't used Sharpy in a while now, maybe I should give it some love.

I totally ignore Harly and SW.

I'm sure I'd favor mage if it was over 120 skill. lol

I'm pretty sure 88 Magic skill is the golden number to skill up. Cursena is your friend.

Has anyone tried "buying" skill ups? Could you poison yourself and poisona your way to success? lol

That would get really expensive really fast, not to mention you'd have to fill your inventory with poison pots.

Even if PUP was your first high level job (40+ for the soulsoother head) you could get to 48 magic skill using /pup on whatever lv 30 job you used to unlock PUP, then its just another 12 points until you have access to silena where you can use the mutes in Beadeaux to skill up to ~90 for cursna and then you can afk to cap at the afflictors.

WHat about MP?

[Telford]

equip the mana tank (I or II) and the economizer, mana converter, or Mana Conserver
make this macro:
/ja "Dark Maneuver" <me> <wait 60>
/ja "Dark Maneuver" <me> <wait 60>
/ja "Dark Maneuver" <me> <wait 60>
/ja "Dark Maneuver" <me> <wait 60>
/ja "Dark Maneuver" <me> <wait 60>
/p <call1>

and you can go afk for 5 minutes and come back and hit the macro when you hear the call or just let the auto run out of mp and it will run in and kill your deploy target and you can deactivate/activate or dea. MP isn't really an issue.

Economizer is 1.5m. >.<
