Power Level Guide
by Gaol (Asura, Foreverlasting LS)
For those who want to power level others, not themselves.
Disclaimer: I've been power leveling(PL) alot of people, and I have done it with many jobs.
Introduction
Power leveling is known to help others at low levels to gain exp faster or if they are no jobs available to heal. This guide is can guide a PLer from lvls10-50 or beyond. What others don't know is that their are ways to keep MP at full and keep the party safe. This guide will describe each potential jobs that can PL and the way to do it. Important to have Light and Dark staff.
Red Mage
Red Mage (RDM) is to me probably the best PL in the game. There is very little downtime when it comes to a RDM at high level as a PL. I primarily use my RDM75 to PL my friends and family. Levels 1-40 is relatively easy to PL, but beyond that causes more downtime.
Subjobs
For RDM their are only a few subjobs that would make them an effective PL.
Black Mage: I use this subjob since it gives higher MP than WHM and that it has Warp when the party is finished.
White Mage: This is a good subjob. Gives less MP than BLM, but has more curative spells. Can heal more status ailments.
Summoner: This is a good subjob in terms of more MP.
How to play RDM as PL
Always have Refresh and Stoneskin on. MP will always be either nearly full or full at the end of each battle when PLing lower levels. Keeping hate doesn't matter for lower levels since MP will always be fine. When PLing lvl20-40 it would be wise to have hate.
Paladin
Paladins are a great PL. With full AF and WHM subjob they can keep hate and keep everyone alive. The key is to let Meatshield (tank) to get hit until a Cure III or IV is needed. The cure will give you enough hate to keep. Have stoneskin on and Darkstaff equipped and just rest for MP. If done correctly the mob should stay on you and won't come off even if someone provoked.
Any equipment with +Enmity would do wonders, and having a Parade Gorget would be wise also.
Underconstruction
Will complete this guide soon!
