Fields of Valor + Summoner = Win?Follow

I have a 65 summoner and I'm having a rough time getting parties and what not. Anyone recommend a field manual I should try out. Been looking on Encyclopedia but a lot of the mobs for some of the pages, I'd think i'd be screwed over with constant death.

Suggestions?

From a solo-standpoint:

From doing some lookin' over, you're like in the middle of things. Xarcabard is just a shade below you (for smacking EP's, solo). By appearance the 'ones' that are near-equal level if a little higher would be Ro'Maeve, Cape Terriggan. However that is the 'recomendation' of the book as 60-65~ so expect DC/EM atleast :"(

If you see people around that could technically get xp (EP atleast) then grab a level sync buddy. I don't see how they could decline unless they're farming :x

I don't know too much of campaigns so :x

Melee, and have your avatar melee alongside you. Have it do a few melee BPs, and throw in some magical BPs too. Make sure you take damage, that'll increase exp as well. But don't die. =P

Enfeeble; Paralyze, Slow, anything. If you're /WHM, Paralyze is best for its low cost and low recast. Keep casting it once in a while if whatever you're fighting doesn't have Paralyze.

Raising is great, do it whenever you get the chance. And curing is good, but try to get the most efficient cures you can whenever you get the chance. Carbuncle's Healing Ruby and Healing Ruby II (in the right situation) are very efficient.

Carbuncle's probably one of your best bets for campaign for his ability to stay out long at the least cost, some of the best cures, some relatively cheap buffs, and some pretty decent BP: Rage.

At around your level I generally got my exp up to around 1500-1900 exp in maybe 20-30 mins. I think I might have been capping for the length. It's not the greatest of exp, but it's pretty good and easy. I'm also pretty sure I could have done better if I wasn't capping. I slacked a lot. Also, it gets better as you get access to Spirit Taker at 66 (if your staff is leveled) and Sublimation and Aspir from /SCH at 70 and 74, respectively. If you haven't leveled the /SCH, I'd recommend you do so at least around then. And obviously, better BPs from SMN.

You should try to get your medals up, too. It only takes a few hours every period of 5 days to raise it as fast as possible.

FoV might offer something better, I haven't tried there. But I would suggest maybe a party of 2-3 for best results.

In all honesty, if you want to solo xp you should go the traditional bomb method up in Ulg. Range or Ifrit's Cauldron (can't remember which is better for your level. Its been a while).

While it may be more dangerous than FoV and Campaign, it will teach you invaluable knowledge about have, avatar kiting, and magic aggro range.

From a BST's perspective, I'd also recommend the Snolls in Ulegeurand Range.

I'm really just posting to /wave to Kaze and Jobberwock cuz we're on the same server ._.

This person speaks truth. This is really some of the best solo exp ever. But when you're not doing this, campaign is a nice alternative.

Agreed with the above, especially with the addition of Anniversary ring and kupfried powers. Its ridiculous.

I'm almost 75 (OMG!) off high level snolls in Ule[TAB] Range. Chain 1 nets 720xp, and with kupofried running speed increase, you can literally outrun hypothermal combustion.

Djinns are going to be your best bet, northern park of Vunkerl Inlet has a great camp, but can only be solo'd easily on Ice and Lightning days, by using Ice spikes and Rolling Thunder to give Djinns instant tp move ability. Other days require elemental magic, which only kind of works (hate is crazier).

I agree, soloing in the cauldron and xarc is the best way IMO to solo xp. It especially helps to have the annaversary ring or the regular xp ring.
