Good job on putting several links together and also good job on putting some good information in a much more compact detail then the other threads offer for easier reading. Overall its still pretty long like almost all of the BLU information threads are lol. And I see you also put links to my threads too, Thank you ^^. Rate up.

Pelase sticky this before it drops into obilivion.

For low level learning /BRD is good too for paeon. Your life stays almost full while those weak monsters hit you for a while.

Azure Lure decreases Blue Magic's cast time.
if you want to edit that in.

I added some more information and fixed a few different problems with the format, that I noticed. I'm still gathering information from the Blue Mage forums, but I will not be giving anything the 100% go until I have tested it myself or have seen conclusive proof that the information is true.

There have been two requests for stickies. One by me at http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/forum.html?forum=3;mid=114591164925013569;num=1;page=1 and another at http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/forum.html?forum=3;mid=114598314084431821;num=0;page=1

Update: Added additional threads that have popped up, rearranged several pieces of info, and changed several other misleading sections.

I have added a player testimonial section for subjob. If you are interested in giving me a testimonial, please send me a private message with your level and testimonial.

I've also added the TESTED threads. While I don't feel they are conclusive, the information is progressing.

Slipped to the second page, bump.

Alla lagged for me, sorry for the double post.

You can learn moves from NM, also you dont have to kill the mob right after it uses the move. I was duoing in Tahrongi Canyon, we were all BLU lv10. I asked one of the BLUs to bring a stack of Distilled water to see if we could pop the NM in tahrongi canyon (??? that has 100% drop on Fasting ring) . As soon as he gets here he trades the water, and we begin fight. Took us almost 5-10minutes to kill the mob. The mob used Sprout Smack during the middle of the fight when he was around 50% HP. After it used its WS, it took us like 3-5minutes to kill. We popped potions and Hi-potions since we had run out of mp and it was beating the crap out of us. We finally killed it and each got 72 exp, grain seeds, and Fasting ring. I checked the chat log and was suprised when it said "Sogue learns Sprout Smack".

Hope that clears a little bit up about learning moves off NM.
Good luck to all you Blue Mages.

Can you tell me where is the best place to level starting out a blue mage?

Thanks!
