Another BLM question

[Nicolette]

So I picked up sorcerers ring (+10 magic attack bonus while yellow HP) and i'm trying to find an easy way to macro in a gear switch to drop me in yellow for using it, rather than say, overnuking to get into yellow.

ATM I can only think of using hp->mp gear on a macro or two in and out to instantly drop my mp but havent found any cheap way to do it.

30hp-> mp ether ring, 600k.
20hp->mp x2 electrum rings would be cheap but wont put me in yellow, and astral earring is something like 14mil and would be a gross misuse of gil =p

my flora cotehardie has 30hp->mp but im always wearing that so wouldnt want to waste the mp bonus I get from it, or remove it and lose the +3 int.

Any ideas?

Now ask yourself, is +3 int and +30 MP, or +10 MATT better? I don't think it's a hard question. >.>

Use poison or venom potions to get your HP down in the yellow. Just make sure to tell the WHM otherwise you might just keep getting Poisona.

Why only have 1 when i can have both=p

the problem with venom potions etc is that id have to use them and cure them off anytime i wanted to rest mp or something which is usually alot. with a gear switch macro i could instantly yellow myself anytime I wanted.

With refresh and vermy cloak I was able to swing a full chain 5 doing good damage with nukes and max damage mb but controling hate. I subbed rdm so I didn't have autoregen. Losing 300hps on taru gives you room to rest between fights and stay yellow with clear mind ability.

Just puts you on a fine line of hate control keep a good ballence and make cure your whm knows to only spam cure 2 and 3 on you with hate. Hell getting hit everyonce and awhile saves you money

I liked shaman cloak till 68 and black c for mb with pent hat. I used that ring for 18lvls before the spells mp cost caught up to me. Zennith gear makes it oh so easy to get yellow though. There is a gear swap you can do but it takes like 8+ pieces and some are in the millions (serket ring is a must for it)

Maybe sub smn for extra mp and fewer hps and you might achieve it easier.
