Taru ninjas are the best because we look so cute :-]

If you want an alternative to MNK type mobs (Mandras) in the jungles, you can head on over to the outpost in Yuh. Jungle as early as level 25. Near the first hill to the open area is a good camp at the top. There you'll be able to chain Goblin Furriers, a Ranger type Goblin. They're easier than Smithies but they can be just as dangerous with Bomb Toss. I advise that you take an expierenced group here or a setup that cannot fail and make sure your WHM (if you get one) has Barfira.

If you plan on leveling NIN here, another NIN in your PT would work nicely when the Ranged Attacks take away too many shadows.

Oh, and this spot is pretty hard at Levels 25-26, but it gets much better at 26-27. However, the expierence drops from 200's after 27. If you want to continue leveling, you can sneak yourselves and head to the entrance to the Sea Serpent Grotto. There you can take Sahagin. If I remember correctly, there are BRD and MNK there. The pugils there also give good exp as well. However, these new mobs will pose a greater threat due to double attack and H2H. You can fight these mobs up to 30.

After that you can move up to the entrance of norg and fight iron shells and the bones that spawn there. NIN tank is very good agaisnt them.

And that way you avoid the horrible horrible expirience yhoator can be with trains arriving every 10 mins.

ummm they look like subligears on my mithre character, so i am correct...meaningless corrections are kinda rude guy.

I mean either you got the joke or you didnt, but in either event relax your tone annoys me.


proff, you quoted my comment, either you have wondered or you havent, its not something to be proven, just something ive noticed.

relax this is all very peacefull comments on nin blink tanking, tarus nins IMO (in my opinion, meaning that cant be disputed) are the best for those reasons.


good day fellow ^^

YES! finally someone said it! little do ppl know, our hate keeping techniques dont come from any of our melee abilities. its b/c the mob cant stop looking at us since we're too cute! :spin:

yea gryff, all your gears make me want to cry ; ;. speed belt in particular :dead: (that is speed belt right? )

curious... how much does 3% haste equate to in seconds for your utsu recast timer?

with spell haste its 45->36. im sure speed+fuma makes a nice difference, but would it be evenworth it to just have only fuma?

I was worried about blinking mandragoras, but I had my first pt there as nin last night, and it wasn't bad at all. The missed and/or I parried enough so it wasn't hard. Whenever I was down, the other nin just took over and by the time he was out the thing was dead. If anything crazy happened (which didn't ) there were 3 other people with voke. (Pt was nin/war, nin/war war/mnk, drk/war, thf/war, and whm/blm)
