Agreed on most points, especially how amazing RDM/BST is. I have some differences regarding the following:
-I'm pretty sure gravity doesn't affect evasion on Nasomi, though I may be mistaken and have not tested this myself
-scythe skill is fun to have, but I consider it optional. TBH mine's not even capped and I've been 75 for about 2 years
The risk with using it while xping is that it pulls a lot of hate, especially on crits
-while soloing/duoing, I totally agree to focus on having good CHR gear. Also go with any enmity- and evasion+ stuff you can find (crow is a must have). But if you're going to xp in a party or with a group of BST, don't show up meleeing in CHR gear
I've got a bunch of ideas for this thread, including how I do some of my macros, so I'll update when I have more time. Here's an example of my Call Beast macro:
/equip hands "Monster gloves" (this is only relevant for 75+ ofc)
/equip ammo "Fish oil broth" <wait 1> (I have preset lines with various jug types and paste them in depending on which I'm carrying)
/ja "Call beast" <me> <wait 1>/pet Fight <t> (I do this because it's often the case that we'll have to call a jugpet in the heat of the moment and it saves a moment of scrambling with macros)
/equipset [melee/evasion set] I also do things like /echo <pettp> on various commands so I know how much TP my pets have. Especially handy with the /fight macro.
Great thread idea!
