I've been leveling in Ronfare and have taken down about 25 sheep and cannot learn Sheep Song. I use Dia and my fists to get TP up, which is what I use on other mobs and can learn successfully. Some sheep cast 2 or 3 times and no luck.

What am I doing wrong? Do I need to go to a new area?

Make sure your BLU skill is 20+. If it's above that, try a different zone?

It once took me over 6 hours total of killing weapons to learn Smite of Rage, way more than 25 mobs, and over 2 days for Stinking Gas and Terror Touch respectively, camping the mobs with capped blue magic skill on and off. It's just luck if you will learn it or not, sometimes this stuff happens so be REALLY patient with it.

thanks! I'll try to be more patient.

You both were my lucky charm! Got on my first sheep today.

In general my advice is if it's not something you need RIGHT NOW or will use in XP parties, wait til you get the AF gloves at 54 and go back and learn things, they really did seem to make a sizable difference in time spent learning for me.

Obviously not the case for something useful like Sheep Song, but just a suggestion for the future.
