Re: Questions about bst.

I will say that at lvl 25 BSt I am loving it! Having the Call beast ability is suck a life saver. Granted it is probably not the best choice as there are plent of good pet that are more powerful out in the field but the big draw is the not having to worry about loosing charm over the pet. I am also just learning to love the Sic ability and finding out how handy this becomes in certain situations. At lvl 25 BSt rocks for me

Good luck with Beastmaster.

Bst 2hr: First things first, ya gotta charm somethin'. Once you have a pet, you can use Familiar (Beastmaster 2hr). This allows you to keep your pet for either 30 minutes or until your pet dies, which ever comes first.

Your "lovin' it" level may differ from mine. Mine was level 35 when I learned "Leave".

Do not charm something and /joy motion. This is not good. Sage advise from me to you.

Re: Questions about bst.

I'm level 66 beast now, and I've loved every level. The higher I go it seems the
better it gets, but it's probably just my skills and decisions are better so
there are less emergencies.
Secret to beast, learn what you can charm and
what is difficult to charm. Don';t attempt to charm a mob that is in close proximity to another of his family. Use a charm macro that automatically follows up with the tame ability. Always fight mobs that are out of aggro range of other mobs so you can use sic ability without an AOE from pet drawing more mobs into the fight.
The 2 hr is effective when I can find a t mob in a group of em mobs to get
some chains going but that usually requires some pet food to keep kills going
without resting. The reverse is to 2 hr an em and go after some t mobs, the
two approaches actually turn out close to equal in exp.
I think my enjoyment of beast became elevated when I could sub Blu and utilize cocoon and bludgeon and get +8 Chr from equipping spells and the regen ability. It's fun to watch your HP go up while you are running around looking for your next prey.

Re: Questions about bst.

Familiar: For wild pets it lets you keep them charmed for 30 minutes. Works best of pets that are rated Tough and above. For jug pets, it seems to add 10% HP or so on top of whatever HP they have. This can be witnessed if your jug pet is harmed, and if you use Familiar their HP bar drops a bit.

As for what level you start loving it? I must say, 35.

Re: Questions about bst.

I think you'll realize fairly early on whether you love BST soloing or hate BST soloing. Even before Leave, the impacts of not having to LFG can be felt early on.

Re: Questions about bst.

I'm lv 45, and have many many "Damn you communist bastards (Brady guides) for making the world of retards hate BST" moments. But then, just for a moment, my pet won't uncharm, a Pt wont turn up on top of me the moment i find a cood camp..

I think I've had about 3 good BST moments... lol

It is just fun to walk nito a BCNM with some people and kick so much ass.

Re: Questions about bst.

*updated* I have gotten beastmaster to level 14 by soloing and it is great.
I been having fun using my 2 hour and keeping my pet alive.
For the fun part I tried to charm a gobin fisher but I could not charm him.
getting 75, 100 and 120 exp is great. I wish I could know how to put a video up
from the xbox 360.

Re: Questions about bst.

There is the problem with solo BST. The exp will most likely stay at 120 ish to 200 untill about 60.

Re: Questions about bst.

The cap moves up at 50 I believe, I remember raping Goblin's Leeches at 49, 50 and 51, the EXP definately moves up a notch.

Re: Questions about bst.

Quick note about charming you cannot charm any Goblin or Beastmen for that matter I.e ............ Orc, yaguado, Quadav, goblin. If I were you I would start learning cooking as a craft it will help when it comes to having pet food as well as jug pets.

Re: Questions about bst.

no dont do that leave my cooking alone >.>

Re: Questions about bst.

BST. I'm lovin' it!

Endure the hardships that low levels bring, later on its so much fun and you're self sufficient for many things, and im impressed how well I do on some BCNMs and mission fights, yesterday I did ther bugbear and goblins BC for a friend (cop missions) and my pet tanked the bugbear easily for a good 2 min until the nin voked it! Was fun! He had 70% at that time, i was impressed

Re: Questions about bst.

Great stories I can't wait to try out a jug pet.
How do you guys/gals like rampage (Hope I spelled it right) Weapon skill I hear it's very powerful.

Before the "Leave" patch, it's a finisher.

It still is, but you can use it without much worry.
