How to raise your NPC buddy

Re: How to raise your NPC buddy

what would ya use for a healing lvl 41 npc using the lvl 20 drk only scythe as the next upgrade?

I've seen a handful of people using club on their NPC for Moonlight and Starlight, which give them a little mp and reduce your downtime a little more.

I'm a fan of polearm for my rdm's NPC, since it has no AoEs and practically every polearm WS until level 49 opens Distortion, which I can close with either my sword or my dagger. I assume you mainly use your NPC for farming with thf, so closing Distortion with DE is probably pretty good.

If you to put a shield on your NPC, you might consider Katana. It also has no AoE WS, and you can still use DE to close Detonation off Retsu, Scission off To, and Distortion off Rin and Chi once it hits level 49.

Does anyone know if we can use NPC in Avatar cloister? (party edition)

The area you're in must be subject to Conquest if you wish to call them through the earrings.

Re: How to raise your NPC buddy

So assuming cloisters are not subject to conquest, i can't use him there...

I don't know this offhand and i've actually come back from a long FFXI break so i don't know much about anything anymore lol.

Thanks for a response.

Answer boy: Do not try and find the real answer. That's impossible. Instead... only try to realize the truth.
Neo: What truth?
Answer boy: There is no Answer.
Neo: There is no answer?
Answer boy: Then you'll see, that it is not the answer that is found, it is only yourself.

Dropping your pearl worsens your NPC affinity. So don't do it.

Re: How to raise your NPC buddy

I had Past Reflections active a couple months back and never finished it. I started to level my NPC again and I gathered all the food items that Taru wanted but when I went to him and traded them he wouldn't take them.

Seems I dropped in Affinity level with my NPC because I neglected her for so long.

Will I be able to finish this quest? Will it prevent me from reaching the next quest?

Re: How to raise your NPC buddy

wow, seems that this area's been neglected for a while. Anybody do anything exceptionally special with their NPC in the past little while?

Re: How to raise your NPC buddy

I got my NPC buddy today on my 32 RDM, and while leveling in Garliage I was 1.5k to leveling the DRG and SAM both left, so it was me(RDM/BLM), WAR/NIN, WHM/BLM and a THF/NIN(who was awesome btw, SA Viper Bite pwned Bats the whole time). They were all speaking JP, the THF knew some english though, and the others agreed to stay and help me level. I had my signal pearl with me, so I whipped it out and basically my NPC buddy would be first, while the THF and WAR setup SATA XD. It was awesome really, we got the exp eventually and I can finally Warp with BLM subbed now.
