Hello! I have gotten my BLU up to 22, and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be doing to increase damage. I have /NIN for dual wield, and my numbers hit in the single digits most of the time, and Headbutt does a chunk of damage. But the basic fight, I autoattack, and cast Headbutt every 5 seconds. Can I increase my damage output?

Bludgeon is good to spam if you have that spell with headbutt in there to help if you have a tank taking tons of damage at once.

I do have bludgeon. Just spam both of them while autoattacking?

Its what I did haha. I also had tons of yag drinks from my alt. Maybe you can use it, count to 5 or 6 and use again, rest mp when needed. At 30 if you wish you could /thf for that sexy sneak attack

Just get the dream trousers +1 and use orange juices. Much more cost effective.

Just tank until 30. Cocoon, Sandspin, Wild Oats, and then Pollen between the mob's hits. After 30, go /THF for SA. For parties that bring you in as a DD, open up with Wild Oats and spam Head ButtMake absolutely sure to coordinate with your groups for skill chains, and strongarm lazy/bad players into doing skills chains. Battle Dance is great with NIN tanks, Feather Storm is ok, Healing Breeze is a good use of MP if your party doesn't have a PL and your healer holds back the group by needing to rest a lot. Never, EVER use Bludgeon against Crabs in an exp party, as the extra TP feed will just make things worse.

Excellent! This is exactly what I was looking for! Two questions:

1. How do I strongarm people into skillchains? Just explain the plan when the group starts? And do I just do one skillchain over and over when we reach 1000 TP, or is there a cycle?

2. Can I level BLU as my first job, or is the LB still broken? If it is still broken, what do I have to do to work past that?

OK, that was 5 questions...

Do groups usually understand BLU having to rest to get MP back? I feel like I have to get up immediately or I am being a bad party member when I could really use another 20-30 seconds of mp regeneration.
