I would imagine that it would solo much better than DRK/justaboutanythingelse.Originally posted by ArmandoNo one at Square Enix has heard of Occam's Razor.Originally posted by ArmandoNintendo always seems to have a legion of haters at the wings ready to jump in and prop up straw men about hardware and gimmicks and casuals.Originally posted by TaskmageGOD IS MIFFED AT AMERICA

Re: DRK/DNC for soloing?
Nope. DRK/BST ftw.
DRK/DNC is OK from 60+ but generally I prefer to have a charmed pet handy (of course this only applies if you've actually leveled BST equally as high otherwise yes go with DNC) since the added damage makes things much smoother. Especially since DRK can already keep itself going with 2 Drains + Dread Spikes (though that's very high level) and Aspir.
I'm only 56 DRK, but so far I hate subbing DNC. Fights take way too long, and as I said I just farm FoV pages which means I'm mostly fighting easy prey anyway, so the extra killing power > healing. I forget who but someone posted a video or two of DRK/BST on here a long time ago and managed to solo some damn good EXP against IT mobs in Toraimorai (sp?) Canal.

Re: DRK/DNC for soloing?
I've used drk/dnc and its ok. My drk was 75 when dnc was released so I can't comment on lower levels. As Mal said, fights take a tad longer so in the end I think it evens out between /dnc and a melee sub. I have to say I haven't subbed /bst though but it does sound interesting.Originally posted by FebaBut I mean I do not mind a good looking man so long as I do not have to view his penis.Originally posted by TaskmageGod I hate my periods.

Re: DRK/DNC for soloing?
I freaking love BST sub. Taking that job to 75 was one of the best decisions I ever made in my XI career (to say nothing of the rewards associated with it!)
It basically makes soloing with any non-pet job so, so much easier it's not funny (with some exceptions of course)

Re: DRK/DNC for soloing?
I use DRK/DNC for mowing through EP/DCs for Fields of Valor(currently 49), it's better than MP-based subjobs for surviveability at my level, but on anything over a low DC it's pretty slow-going and probably relatively dangerous. DNC gets most of its real goodies 30-35 so at low to mid levels you aren't really getting anything aside from Curing Waltz I and Drain Samba I. By the time you hit 60-70 you're probalby better off doing Campaign than normal soloing, in which case I probably would be /WHM just for Reraise.Callysto of RamuhCaithsith - 75 RDM / BRD / COR / PLD / WAR / SCH / DRK

Re: DRK/DNC for soloing?
That /BST doesn't work unless you already have Beastmaster main at 75.

Re: DRK/DNC for soloing?
I use DRK/WHM in campaign and it works really well because of reraise bc I don't care who you are you will die in campaign but its all good. If I had dnc I would like to try it though.Emmanuell

Re: DRK/DNC for soloing?
I prefer drk/sch for soloing/campaign. alacrity gives me dreadspikes with only 30 secs of down time plus i get free reraise, cure III and regen II and in some cases since i got aspir and dark magic up to 300 i have all the mp i need with sublimation.
Edit: though this probably only applies to 75...
