COR + BRD in same party

[Amarok]

I'm busy lvling my COR25/RNG12 atm, my RNG is 75 and has full marksmanship merits so I'm keen to stick with COR/RNG throughout its lvling life. My wife's BRD is 37 currently and I should catch her up in a week or so.

Considering my COR will be as heavy DD as i can make it (bullets and best gear for marksmanship + AGI etc), and my wifes BRD would always be /WHM, would these 2 support type jobs be welcome in xp parties lvl 37+?

I don't see why not. Of course, you'll still want a main healer (WHM, or RDM), but that still leaves three more slots for other jobs.

Re: COR + BRD in same party

I've had some stupidly good COR + BRD partys, the BRD has very good melee buffs, and with the cor's speciality buffs liek double attack + they get just so much stronger!

then theres the MP the 1 mage will be gettign, if its a rdm just insane amounts on MP/tick!

Re: COR + BRD in same party

I'd prefer a COR OR BRD + RDM, RDMs are just able to bring a little bit more to the table. I'd think a COR+BRD+WHM party would be a little low on healing and damage, compared to a BRD+RDM+WHM or COR+RDM+WHM party. That said, multiple support jobs in a party is incredibly awesome. Every time I've had an RDM and BRD in the same party it was awesome.

Although my favorite party was still WAR WAR THF NIN BLM BRD, that's off topic.

Re: COR + BRD in same party

COR, BRD, WHM, NIN, WAR, and NIN is like the best you can get with a COR.

Specific Double Attack & Critical Hit Rate Up Rolls (corresponding to the WAR and THF) for melees and Evoker's and Healer's Roll for the WHM by the COR.

Elegy, Attack, and Accuracy Songs by BRD.

NIN for your enfeebles.

Re: COR + BRD in same party

who wouldnt want a brd + cor pt? add an rdm and its pretty much unfair for the mob.

later in the game you'll need to consider whos going to pull. if you're staying with /rng then your wife might want to have /nin ready so she can pull otherwise it can be a little rough pulling with /whm.

Double Attack Roll + Attack Roll + Minuet + March =

Re: COR + BRD in same party

Rogue's (crit) + Fighter's (DA) + Min + March > your stupid attack roll!

Re: COR + BRD in same party

The sexiest merit party I've ever had was RDM/DRK(me), COR/RNG, BRD/WHM, SMN/WHM, and 2 WAR/NINs. At one point we hit 12-13/tick refresh, usually we had 9-10/tick, it was a blast, and the XP was nuts.

Re: COR + BRD in same party

we had a drk in the pt tho so chaos rolls has that bonus effect lol. basically march+ min or minx2 = great so add any extra rolls on it and how can it not fail lol

Re: COR + BRD in same party

I had a low level pt like this the other day on my BRD, from 26-29, and it was awesome. We rarely had to stop, we had a BLM main heal, lol...he was actually amazing, he nuked, and healed and was almost always at good mp. It was great having 4 buffs at a time, and we got great exp. So I'd welcome having both in the pt, you'd have to be made of pure fail to mess up a party like that.

Re: COR + BRD in same party

try cor/whm +brd/whm and either 4x of any DD (mnk, nin, war. bst....etc) for TP burn. It would be pretty amazing. If you both have alot +MP stuff and being a taru. (having like 250s each around 60).

Re: COR + BRD in same party

Cor brd rdm nin war sam? You would get the full benefits from both the Samurai's roll and Fighter's roll, the TP gain would be pretty huge. Of course fighter's roll isn't until 49. RDM is probably not needed over whm. W/e Job can haste imo.

Re: COR + BRD in same party

i rather get smn over rdm most of the time. RDm just doesn't brother to haste. Cor have smn bons in +1 mp every roll on evoker roll. While if you have a good smn with fenrir and diablo, you will do alot better then having a rdm if healing is not require much.

I never really pt with smn beyond 55+ before and i heard fenrir will have ACC+ bonus @ 56.

Also I like double-atk + Critical rate-up + madrigal + march better....
