That's 200 free HP every 45 seconds.
2. The second skill would be Bloodbath. Rank 6 Marauder.
I would use it right before your weaponskill. With Attack boost you can heal for 300HP+.
Also a 45sec recast timer.
3. Also very usefull "Prime Condition". It is a Rank 30 Pugilist trait, which increases every healing effect on you by 10%, but you can buy and equip it with Rank 20.
Second Wind can heal you for 240HP than. Cure and Sacrifice are also more effective.
4. Shock Spikes are a HUGE help for solo stuff. Not because of the damage, but because of the stun effect.
5. Sacrifice is still useful. The MP costs aren't high and their healing effect is way batter that the effect of cure.
But The first 2 skills are sufficient to keep your HP up without any downtime.

thank you mate, I always though 45 secs are too long because I get hits of 200+ hps and my life with hp boost from food is @ ~1000Hp. Anyways I'll try it because I can always use sacrifice/cure when my CDs are down.

thank you again

It was?

After reading each of your replies. It seems you want to rank up just as fast playing solo, as a grp of people tackling harder more rewarding content? Do you not see the disconnect? Are you able to play solo? YES! are you able to progress as fast solo? NO.
Thats the way it should be. END OF STORY!

Get a healer, a tank, and two DD's. Go to raptors and kobolds east of Camp Iron Lake in Limsa. You get 250-350 sp a kill and they don't take long to kill. You need to /shout in U'ldah for a group. You can't just expect people to waltz up to you. It took maybe 15 minutes to get a party that actually payed attention to the log. Oh, and the search feature is somewhat viable now.

Be patient, people are slowly starting to log back into this game. Plus if you want to solo for sp, well I'm sorry but this game is under a different man now. This is a MMO and this is the way it should have been going from the get go

Az,

It seems like maybe 1 or two people mentioned anything that could help you out. I was in my ls last night *yes I finally have one!*, and someone mentioned trying to go to beastmen camps that are around your level *I'm assuming what they mean around your level is going to an aethyrite that you would do leves at your level* then go to the beastmen camp to fight? I havn't tried this yet, but if you do, let me know how it turns out if you get to it before I do.

To everyone else that didn't post anything helpful...learn to the read. Az has done the missions and all the quests...s/he CAN'T LEVEL UP ON THOSE ANYMORE. And Az posted this from the get go.... /facepalmatpeoplenotbeinghelpfulbutpostonlytobeannoying

is the real problem now for lvl up for casual, shout for pt in uldah is not viable you could do it for hours
really is bad system, if you have ls could work people help you

If you are working while playing an MMO, I would suggest getting a solo-type offline game. Or how about, you know... work while you're on the clock.

Quit trying to tell people what to do with their entertainment. You are rude and have no regard for others unless they play just like you I imagine, news flash there's all kinds of players in MMOs AND ALWAYS WILL BE. That's part of the magic of these games, apparently this escapes you.

I was reading this thread for help as well. What I've been doing is straight up grind when I can log in but that's incredibly boring. Thanks for the very small few of you who've actually posted anything useful. The rest of you GTF out of people's faces.
