Enhancing Magic Skill Gain Rate

[Economizer]

I've been a WHM for years now and my Enhancing is still uncapped.

In any given party you have to case your barspells a bunch, but even moreso you have the shortest duration single target Haste spell of any class that can cast it, and everyone needs it. From this I have capped Enhancing Magic (and from constant cure spam my capped Healing Magic), whereas it has been my Divine and Enfeebling which are close to cap but never seem to budge closer to it.

Obviously WHM+RDM should get Hastega (I hate haste cycling with a passion), and obviously skill ups should be allowed in Campaign Battle, because even though I've skilled up my Enhancing "the legitimate way" without spending hours spamming barspells on myself in the middle of nowhere or relying on skill up food or items, doing it naturally still sucked. At least with spamming cures there is a reason you use single target cures, whereas with Haste it only seems that SE wants mages to suffer constant repetition.

Does SE only listen to the JP forums when they want something fixed, cause this has gone on for so long and needs a fix badly.

Interesting, for me Divine and Enfeebling were easy. But like I said, it's close just not quite capped. I'm like a dozen levels off cap now, will probably throw a party when I finally do. :3

I found that for divine and healing, I went and played with skeletons in Attohwa Chasm[a]. Granted, this was on pld, but casting on mobs always seems to work better (which is why enhancing is to tough).

I don't think JP players truly enjoy using macros to cast the same 2 spells over and over for hours than we do.

My enhancing was capped on rdm at the 80 cap easily. Go into Besieged an use chainspell Protect on the serpent generals. You get fast skill ups since your casting on a npc. This will bring you roughly to around the level 82 cap before it tapers off. At that point casting on a level 95 Adventuring Fellow is the best advice, but it will still take some time.

it's sad too, because Square used to care. I can remember a time when I was hospitalized for several years for a medical condition, and my only way to pass the time was playing various Gameboy games. when I would get stuck in a game, I would write a letter to square asking for a hint, and they'd always send a letter back with hints and tips and encouraging words (because they saw the letter came from a hospital)

now though? they don't seem to give a shit about anyone but the Japanese.

I mean, they remade final fantasy legends 1, 2, and 3, which I played the ever loving SHIT out of as a kid while I was hospitalized, and would buy the remakes in a heartbeat, but they refuse to release them outside of japan.

it's getting to the point where square enix will be joining my 'do not ever buy a game from this company again' list

right up there with EA, activision, and capcom
