Updated Weapon Skills and Sub Jobs.

If anyone can give me more benefits on BLU spells then it would be greatly appreciated!

used not so much for the INT MND boosts, but the spells availible have alot of VIT, in conjuntion with cocoon for defensive capibilites.

the other mainly used spell from subbing blu is head butt. with haste and all the fast gear and traits, you can use it nearly every second.

wild oats is a nice debuff spell, as well as sandspin.

the only other spells that are worth using are sheep song and pinecone bomb randomly in ballista.

another benifit from subbing blu aside from the spells, is the ability to use vorpal blade, which otherwise you would need to sub war or drk to use.

I use /blu to trio some bcnm like The ashutaliff#1. I supertank the fomors (up to 11 at a time). Cocoon is great.

i use normally mi rdm for most cases bleh i end up using it at all times cus ppl always want me to be as that i know is one of the coolest jobs i got cus i can solo lots of shit from a easy NM duo a hard one or solo a god (ok this can takes hours for real no joke) i cap all status with war so any of my jobs can use basicly all weapons and had a nice buff in status merits on the effect's r another thingy i went thunder and ice all the way i love to use rdm with /nin /blu /drk but i havent test or got sch to tell how good or bad i can feel it. just the general idea of having several pieces of gear for certain conditions will help me cast faster or have a better and longer status working in a mob or gear to help my spells dont go to hell and be resist every single try i use them all rdm's know's well or most know which will be a need for a HNM fight. all depends in how u work every battle and strategy so we all dont dress ourself the same at all times.

but 1 thing i hate of seeing another rdm in a pt is to find him melee when it should be in the back casting and buffing ppls like hell no excuse of doing that if u r using /whm sub or prolly just sub nin and say i want to melee before u get to camp and surprise if i dont melee i leave and f. up the pt.

if it is about using a sch sub i would like to know what can this really add to my rdm and bring in a possitive way if it end up dropping something from my status then no thx. i dont really see a point in using my /pld as sub this is kinda just for a versus fight.

Sorry been slacking a bit, added a little info on BLU. Will be doing a bigger update about Convert and changing the Melee info.

I did not see the black mage enfeebles listed for the subjob gains. rdm/blm can use all of them. I know in exp I use frost a lot to help the melee hit the monsters with high evasion more.
