Beastmaster: Slow reduces DPS, increases cast times and recast times, and just overall sucks. If you're taking longer to do things normally done (and this hurts a job that was the first true solo job in the game), you're going to hurt for it.

Red Mages was the first True solo of the game they just more needed in partys then bst master. AKA Avista anyone??? check them out on youtube. No only reason why bst solo cuz nobody wants them in partys cuz nobody knows how ot play them correctly and hurt exp cuz they use the wrong pets and basticly DD wise they kinda sucked back then but now sense the update they did get better with better jug pets but still rdm was the first true soloer. You wonna know the reason why most mobs resist bind and sleep in abyssea?? well its this simple if you can bind or sleep it with rdm you can solo it end of story.
