Taru Ranger?

[Hobbit]

Yeah, This has been posted before, but I didn't exactly find my awnser there. I know.. "Any job is good for any race!" but, would there really be a big disadvantage? I'm currently lvl 28 WHM / 14 BLM, but I have taken the time to lvl WAR/THF and THF/WAR up to the mid-teens. I used top of the line bows lvling war and thf, and almost always pulled. My archery skill is up fairly high, and I really want to do ranger. I was thinking about RNG/NIN, dual weilding archers knives (or daggers? forgot, hehe) to make up for some of my disadvantages..? If I shouldn't do rng, please try to assist me in chosing another job? ^^

I think for taru's, /nin is the vastly superior subjob, for the sole reason that blink/utsusemi would lower your chances of death considerably when you have a mob's attention.

As a non-rng, I've never really noticed that much of a difference between all races, and nobody seems to discriminate against taru rng's (as opposed to, say, galkan mages).

keep blink up

Thanks ^^ I decided to go rng/nin, and i lvled whm up to 29 today.. closing in on the big 30! Hopefully tomorrow I can get it, and have ranger/ninja by the weekend! Thanks again for your guidance, it helped a lot.

the fact you already have whm (30) will help you to solo in the beginning.
you can solo from lv1-25 (or so) without any problem, and best sub for this is whm ^^

Coooool ^^ Yeah, I havent had much time to get on ffxi lately, so my whm is sadly still at lvl 29.. :mad: I think i might lvl whm to 36 for teleports, and for sub warp. It would be a nice way to make gil when i dont want to farm :p

Voodoo - Thanks, I found a nice soloing guide, i think i'll do that.. ^^
