[Cait Sith UK]

Hey Guys.

Was just wondering if its worth doing WHM until 15 Sub job BLK then when at 30 Sub Job WHM with SMN as my main.

Or

WHM Till 15 then Main Warrior and subjob WHM then go upto a palidin?

Re: Quick Question!

No. Do MNK to 18, do subjob quest, then WAR/MNK to 30.

Re: Quick Question!

i agree if you are going to do pld do mnk to 18 (solo able if you are patient) and then war to 37 unlock pld and have at it (save your armor from war cause you pld will use almost all of it)

If you are doing smn for main do the whm route

Although I have tested and i have found (before the xp rings) that /whm to about 10-15 (i like to solo a lot) was faster than /war or other sub, since mp increases faster than hp and cure allows you to take on tougher things (not nessasarily Tough targets you still need to pick your targets wisely but it helped me)

WAR/WHM is very gimped and you will only be invited if you are the last WAR/DD/Tank available.

WAR/WHM isn't totally terrible. It's not great, but when we're talking about the level range from 1-37, it's not bad as long as you do Good Stuff like using juice. Make *SURE* you post MP+{Drinks} in your search comment so people understand that you know you can use cures and have the ability to use them regularly to support your enmity.

While it's not the same as being a Paladin (obviously), I'd say a WAR/WHM using juices can hold hate at least as well as a WAR/MNK as long as you have MP (hence why juice is so important), perhaps more so since cures accumulate a lot of long-term enmity, and especially so prior to level 30.

I've recommended WAR/WHM in the past to aspiring paladins, and it does work if you're good about bringing enough MP regen, and also gives you great practice at playing Paladin since the PLD/WAR and WAR/WHM play almost identical roles prior to level 37.

I strongly recommend levelling Cooking to level 20 or above so you can make pineapple juice to recover MP. Use down time and time between pulls to synth drinks and chug them as needed.

While this is entirely true, I don't recommend this to brand new players. It's hard to make juice as a new player because you spend pretty much all your money on equipment and have very little to spare.
