Starting anew

[K. Ishitar]

Hey guys as some of you know Khidir is in limbo for awhile so after talking to a close friend I am allowed to lv one of her mules

The only downside is that I have to play a girl, which means I will be under observation.

Her name is Hviteulf, blond hume, highest job is rdm which is like 14...meh its something to work with.

If you see me in game stop and say hi i guess. Any help getting past dunes is greatly appreciated

Oh Alyda, Mai Ikari,and so on, do you have any tips for playing one? ~.~

Its an awkard(sp) situation but i don't bite the hand that feeds me, so i am grateful.

/kneel to Aethyr

Hope to get my stats up and unlock Blu

1) sub WHM up to 40, 'cause you'll act as main healer a lot <.<;
2) Past 40, please don't melee.
3) Don't be shy on using convert. Its there for a reason. Try to even out the MP you use past 40 so that you have used your entire MP pool by the time convert is up, any MP you have past the 10 min timer is MP you should have spent.
4) Never convert with 100 MP left, just don't. That 100 MP will be completely wasted.
5) Refresh lasts for rather exactly 1 hour and 7 min game-time, keep that in mind for when you put up a refresh order.
6) Always keep your enfeebling magic capped. Actually, let me rephrase that. Try to always keep enfeebling, elemental and dark capped, healing and enhancing can get hard, but enhancing will really pick up fast past 40.
7) Don't be shy with equip swapping macroes
8 ) lvl as many subs as possible for your RDM. Best jobs to have available are BLM, WHM, SMN and DRK (post-40).
9) If something resists you much, focus on as much +enfeebling magic and magic accuracy as possible. If somethign on the other hand don't resist you much at all, focus on MND or INT (depending on the spell you cast)
10) Cast stonesking before you convert, it'll save you lots of headaches. I learned that the hard way <.<;

Red Mage is a great job because it's not a very cannon job. What Uzor said above is basically the essentials to being a good RDM.

Obviously, WHM & BLM are very good subs. You can also level: NIN, DRK, WAR, BLU. Most any job can be a situational sub for RDM, including and up to DRG. So, get those subs to 37.

Otherwise, yes, stop meleeing at level 40. You'll have to get the rest of your Dagger/Sword skill ups in pick up parties, or solo them once you're high enough to solo in Kuftal.

Most people say that there is a certain job order that you should refresh in a PT. I just refresh myself and go down the list. No one seemed to complain.

Uzor has some really great suggestions, though. Listen to him because I subbed SMN for 70 levels because I'm lazy. >_>;

Oh, but gear sets are a must. I have three on me at all times: MP+, INT+, and MND+. This will help you a whole lot in the long run. MP+ for Convert Macros, INT+ for INT based Enfeebles and nuking, MND for MND based enfeebles and healing (to a lesser extent).

Our AF hat and body are beautiful. And the legs will work well for Phalanx and if you're covering Bar-spells.

If you have any more questions feel free to PM me or get a hold of me on AIM.

>.>' Im a 55 rdm im going to focus on blu which means war and mnk first im probrably not going to touch rdm since i have it on khidir

Wasn't clear on that sry and for the advice part...I meant how to deal with the horny perverts

Alyda

I know a bit about the game everything about rdm is compiled now blu i know little about

Oh! Honestly I don't see much of the perverts coming my way anymore. Word around the office is that I have two tails, so they tend to stay away from me.

Best way is to just say: "Hey, I'm a guy."

If they respond to you badly after you say that just black list them. They'll learn eventually. You won't see this much after the dunes and Qufim.

As for BLU information I'd suggest PMing Reynard, Trizzip, or Cythe. They seem to be the people with high level BLUs (or at least decently leveled). Hopefully they can answer some of your questions.
