GS Problem BIG PROBLEM

[Brothershadow]

I did qufim crabs to about 100..
Limit break (paper) groups 110...
Solo'd DeathWasp in CNest to 120.* (subbed ninja)
Solo'd Lost Souls in entrance of necroplolis to 135* Extremely
dangerous, so make sure you melee at/near the zone.

I didn't have much trouble keeping Greatsword leveled with Scythe - I just swapped off Power Slash for Vorpal Scythe to open Distortion. Anyway, here's a little helpful guide for those of you who still have problems.

120-150 First room goblins and leeches in Onzozo.
150-175 Cockatrices and second tier goblins in Onzozo.
175-200 Any AF coffer key mobs or Crabs in Kuftal Tunnel.
200-225 Goblins in Cape Terrigan or Perytons in Valley of Sorrows.

225-250 At this level you should be using both Spinning Slash and Cross Reaper in xp parties. If you need to skill up this level, the BEST place to do it is off birds in Ru'Aun Garden's in Tu'Lia. If not, hobgoblins in Bibiki Bay work well.

I went from 190-200 off of Steelshells in Boy. Tree. It was quick too, lots of .3-.5s. I'm having trouble getting it any higher. Coffer parties aren't enough, and no one wants to skill up off anything higher. Best advice, is just keep them both as close to cap as you can.

....Hauberk is 1.4 mil on Leviathan.... same with Haubergeon... Balmung........THREE million :dead: Kinda shocking that the price difference is that much between servers really IMO. Anywho, got my Haubergeon 2 days ago! I know Im.... 53.... but in 6 levels I can use it! Ok back on topic now...

My GS is only level 101 and Im 53.... soloing crawlers is a pain with GS (can barely do it with a scythe without major downtime), Ive never tried a skillup party untill the other day and only got about 4-6 levels. Skilling in Qufim seems to have stopped now, even on floor 10 of delkfutts tower, so I'm really at a loss of what to do or how to get into good skillup parties :sweat: Any advice would be appreciated!

P.S. Stick with Faussar or get Glorious Sword? Does it really matter since my GS sucks anyway

If you want to lvl G.sword quickly equip a low level one and keep attacking creatures while they rate as high defence, you will level it much quicker than a with a weapon of your current lvl (this is what I have experienced after recieving advice from other high lvl characters who suffered the same problem, and it works) I lvl'd sword (for spirits within) from 0-100 so far by using this technique

Starting in your 50's just sit in Jeuno looking for skill up/coffer parties. I join them too much, got 3 weapons over 200.

55drk/27whm in altepa desert will get you to about 135 easily. just fight the dhamels that roam around near the zone. or the ants near rabao. 135+ i was hanging around eld skilling up on the bones near the zone, then doing pappy runs or coffer mobs til i quit drk.. i found this to be the best route for solo skilling, whm paralyze, slows, protects, shells an cures, an the drks ability to drain, an aspir. then simply go to your drk staff. then repeat.
