Lv.75+ EXP Camps

[ItazuraNhomango]

Post here if you have info on Lv.75+ camps for exp parties.

* * *

Collected Camp Info

The Lv.75 merit camps all still work well for Lv.76 parties, and probably higher. Check Campsitaru for those.

Unless otherwise noted, at least one DD (or "support") in party should be a "first provoke" person with Utsusemi; WAR/NIN, NIN/WAR, DNC/NIN, PLD/NIN should all work.


Promyvion-Holla (3 camps)
Target: Idle Wanderer, Woeful Weeper, Livid Seether
Floor 1 (Lv.73-75) Good for solo/duo people. Can probably support one Lv.73 party or one weaker Lv.75 party.
Floor 2 (Lv.75-78) Decent for one normal party.
Floor 3 (no camp)
Floor 4 (Lv.76-80) Great for one strong party.

Recommended Configuration(s):
DD/NIN x3, Support x2, Healer
DD/NIN x4, BRD/NIN, Healer

Notes:
A full-time dispeller is very useful against Wanderer's evasion and defense buffs (Mirage, Aura of Persistence). Due to Empty Beleaguer, /NIN is highly recommended for the front line jobs. If using PLD, PLD/NIN recommended over PLD/anything-else.

COR/RDM may work very well here, using /RDM for Dispel to save Quick Draw for sleep or damage.



Promyvion-Dem (at least 2 camps)
Target: Idle Wanderer, Woeful Weeper, Livid Seether
Floor 1 ???
Floor 2 ???
Floor 3 (Lv.75-??)
Floor 4 (Lv.76-80?)

Recommended Configuration(s):
DD/NIN x3, Support x2, Healer
DD/NIN x4, BRD/NIN, Healer

Misareaux Coast (2 camps; J-7 and J-8?)
Target: Seaboard Vulture
Level: 75-77?

Recommended Configuration(s):
DD(/NIN) x3, Support x2, Healer
DD/NIN x4, BRD/NIN, Healer

Notes:
Point the bird away from back line jobs; Damnation Dive is a conal AoE damage plus Stun. (Blockable with Utsusemi.) Baraera recommended.



Castle Oztroja [s] Top two floors (2 camps)
Target: Everything
Level: 75-77

Recommended Configuration(s):
"Normal party setup you'd use for mire/colibri/etc."

Notes:

Roam around the top floor and kill everything, if the top floor is empty move down the stairs a little bit and kill a few mobs there until top floor starts respawning.
There's room for only one party on the top floor but there's one floor below there where mobs of the sameish levels roam, on the lower floor however there's a NM you want to avoid.

Original post.

(Stolen from my post on another forum: )


Promyvion-Holla, Lv.75-77 party. (Started as Lv.75-76, became 76-77.)
Target: Idle Wanderer, Woeful Weeper.

WAR/NIN
SAM/NIN
SAM/NIN
BRD/NIN
WHM/SCH
RDM/WHM

Floor 1: Chain 6-8? WHM left for a while (to get Genkai), and we didn't have trouble with just five in party. (However, a pair of SMN duo'ing was cutting into our exp. lol.)

Floor 2: Chain 12 (12+? Well, at least 12.) We were happy here. Stuff seemed a bit spread out, though; a 1.5 puller mentality may be good for the party.

Floor 3: No camp.

Floor 4: Looked like enough critters to support one party for infinite chain, but it was too late in the night to try. We definitely want the fourth floor next time.

Note: On the second floor, our BRD said the Wanderer didn't link, but were true sight. (Maybe he meant true sound? *shrug*)

* * *

The consensus in party was more or less:

Floor 1: Good for solo/duo people. Can probably support one Lv.73 party or one weaker Lv.75 party.
Floor 2: Decent for one normal party.
Floor 4: Probably great for one strong party.

Misareaux Coast, Lv.75-76 party
Target: er, brown birds just outside of Tavnazian Safehold. Forgot the name. lol.

WAR/NIN
SAM/NIN
SAM/NIN
BRD/NIN
WHM/SCH
RDM/WHM

We were mowing down the birds fast, but lost /random to the other party that got there at nearly the same time. So we moved to Promyvion-Holla after only a short time.

If you have strong DDs, merit party setup of DD/NIN x3, BRD/NIN, COR/DNC (or /WHM), WHM/SCH would be very decent, IMO.

Re: Lv.75+ EXP Camps

Have a friend running through there atm as 75BLM and he has yet to get aggro or find anything that doesnt con Too Weak..........

Re: Lv.75+ EXP Camps

Well might as well add to this.
Promyvion-Dem
3rd Floor (G-6)
Target: Idle Wanderer, 1 Woeful Weeper
Level Sync 75-76
Setup:
RDM/DNC
BRD/NIN (me)
BLU/NIN x2
SAM/NIN x2

Decent EXP was getting 18k/hr with Emperor Band. About 10k-15k without. Watch out for TP moves, has a really nasty AoE one that strips shadows (which especially sucks if you're pulling and the area is relatively small). Did a max chain of 7 or 8 but we could have had better DDs. Lots of Idle Wanderers could support infinite chain. I also hear there is another camp on the fourth floor but has less mobs.

Re: Lv.75+ EXP Camps

Promyvion-Dem, 4th floor, Lv.75 party. (Level Sync)
Target: Idle Wanderer, Livid Seether.
Recommend: Lv.76 or 77 instead.

WAR/NIN
SAM/NIN
DNC/NIN
COR/NIN
BRD/NIN (myself)
WHM/SCH

Notes:
1. Idle Wanderers need to be dispelled/Dark Shot'ed; they seems evasive to began with, so leaving its evasion up buff on is not good.
2. Recommend accuracy food--at least Marinara Pizza or better.
3. Lv.75 is a tad low, at least with our group.

Fewer hardcore players available last night on our LS, so a less powerful party. This camp is definitely meant for a stronger party, at higher level. I think Lv.76 or Lv.77 for DDs may be much better.

Re: Lv.75+ EXP Camps

Castle Oztroja [S] Top floor
Target: Everything that moves and you are able to attack.
Recommend: lv. 75~77

Normal party setup you'd use for mire/colibri/etc.

Roam around the top floor and kill everything, if the top floor is empty move down the stairs a little bit and kill a few mobs there until top floor starts respawning.
There's room for only one party on the top floor but there's one floor below there where mobs of the sameish levels roam, on the lower floor however there's a NM you want to avoid.

Re: Lv.75+ EXP Camps

Bibiki Bay: G-9 (reminds me of olds days of the hill camp in vulkrum dunes)
Target: Dhamels, goblins and hares(if low on mobs)
Recommended: 75~77

Had a set up of RDM(me), BRD, WAR, SAM, RNG, PLD(NIN) Had PLD at first then a NIN came to replace him. Was ok xp with PLD, about 9k/hr. not great but better than nothing and easier than soloing or campaign. Really picked up when we got NIN....which sounds kinda wierd to say. Accidently came /dnc but actually boosted our xp to 13k/hr, avg of chain 6-7 before break, and later went and switch to /war and probably would have got up to 15k/hr but we disbanded shortly after. I'm thinking if you go with a merit party set up with at least 1 voke you can do 15k/hr.

Dhamels are main target, then gobs down the hill a bit and then hares the other way but only a few of those.
Dhamels have a couple TP moves.
~Healing Breeze [AoE] = ~1200HP heal uses no more than once a fight, will awaken other Dhamels near by that BRD has slept.
~Stomp(forgot name but something similar) [single target] = 500-900 dmg be careful this can kill someone fast. used the most and usually 2-3 times a fight.
~Forgotten Name [AoE] = AGL boost

Goblins - has all the normal gob TP moves. up to TIII magic

Hares - Has a powerful AoE TP move that can do up to 500-600 dmg. real pain and not worth fight unless trying to keep chain.

Re: Lv.75+ EXP Camps

I did that camp the other day (dhalmels are called "camelopards" or something, btw) with:

war/nin
drk/nin
drg/sam
dnc/something
whm/sch
rng/nin

Note: No bard, no Refresher. We still pulled 12k/hour. After a while, we inherited vulture camp in Mis[tab key] coast and we got 5k exp in 15 mins. So Bibiki Bay is decent, but when you have the option of getting 20k/hour w/out a bard...

Re: Lv.75+ EXP Camps

~Healing Breeze [AoE] = ~1200HP heal uses no more than once a fight

That's odd; I was pretty sure Dhalmels could use this more than once if they wanted. That they live to do so is another story.

Re: Lv.75+ EXP Camps

La Vaule [s] - (F-9)
Target: Orcs
Recommend: lv. 75~77

Any setup works. Without any +exp, should average 12-15k/hr.

I used this power setup (with level sync 75 + Emperor Ring = 25k/hr):

COR/NIN
BRD/NIN (me)
SAM/NIN
RNG/NIN
WAR/NIN
RDM/WHM

If you can keep the whole camp cleared of orcs and always have some parked so DD can insta-switch.. you can do really well here. Exp tanks badly here at 77+. Keep rotating in a syncer if partying long time.

The SAM who was using Emp. Ring + Allied Ring said he was at ~ 44k/hr... so who knows what the party was truely averaging. Groups will vary anyway.

We lost chain for some reason somewhere in the 100s. No worries... rinse and repeat.

There's really not a whole lot to them. Be careful of the true sight NM getting to the camp.

Enjoy!

There's no restriction. I know at one point, we had a new mob in camp while the old was still @40% because he did a double healing breeze. However, it definitely feels less frequent and less chain-breaking than Troll's stoneskin move.

Interesting...

This, it can use healing breeze almost infinitely.
This did make me very happy skilling up my club skill on them last night though, one of them even breezed 7 times in a row.
