[BBM]

Ok yea, I had that coming too. Andthere is a blades law to. Dammit me, think!

Lol, if I'd remembered Mog Knights, I probably would have made the same mistake. :P

[BBM]

Beat the Moogle Totema! I will promote Montblanc to Gunner as soon as he finishes learning Chocobo Rush.

Team Meteor:

Level 7 Human Soldier Marche: First Aid, Mindbreak, Sensor, Shieldbearer, Combat Combo, (Speedbreak)

Level 7 Moogle Animist Montblanc: Sheep Count, Catnip, (Chocobo Rush)

Level 7 Human Thief Olivar: Steal Gil, (Steal Accessory), (Maintenance)

Level 7 Bangaa Warrior Pablo: Mindbreak, Magicbreak, Speedbreak, (First Aid)

Level 8 Nu Mou Black Mage Velasquez: Fire, Thunder, Blizzard, Fira, (Thundara)

Level 5 Viera Archer Elena: Boost, Aim: Legs, Blackout, (Burial), (Block Arrows)

Skills in parentheses are being learnt currently. Velasquez is awesome. Sheep Count is also awesome. Pablo is not very good, to be frank. He deals more damage than Olivar, but can't dodge for shit and dies all the time. It's annoying using Phoenix Downs on him all the time. The Warrior/Soldier classes also don't have great skills... Hopefully making him a Warrior will be worth it when he can become a Dragoon or Gladiator, because I don't really like the Templar class too much, and the Bishop is kinda meh.

Nobody's died yet, mostly because I just revive everyone with Phoenix Downs as soon as they get knocked out. Hopefully I won't lose anyone on the Jagd maps.

I feel really over leveled...just got Famfrit.

Level 12 Hume Soldier- Frat

Level 11 Moogle Time Mage- Montblanc (black magic subskills, all the -ara spells)

Level 11 Hume Archer- Syrus

Level 12 Bangaa White Monk- Mondo

Level 14 Nu Mou White Mage- Chaka

Level 12 Viera Fencer- Tosca

Everyone has been pretty useful so far...Mondo has probably been the most useful solely because of Air Render being able to strike units from farther away. Chaka grows so much faster than everyone thanks to EXP from Protect/Shell. Montblanc is probably the least useful unless he's hitting multiple targets at once, just because he does a lot less damage than everyone else or doesn't have Chaka's white magic. He'll probably be more useful now that he's got Time Magic.

Well, I made a REALLY dumb mistake, but thankfully I got out of it without any losses. I forgot that the Antilaws mission gets automatically triggered, and engaged in it accidentally... when 3 of my 6 team members were on Dispatch missions. As a story mission, I couldn't run from it, and one of the laws was No Items. >_> I managed to beat it, but it involved Yellow Cards for all 3 of my team members- Marche as he healed himself, Montblanc as he revived Velasquez, and Velasquez as he revived Montblanc.

[BBM]

Just beat the Bangaa Totema. That makes 3 promoted classes!

Team Meteor:

Level 15 Human Soldier Marche: First Aid, Mindbreak, Sensor, Shieldbearer, Combat Combo, Speedbreak, Powerbreak, Provoke

Level 15 Moogle Animist/Gunner Montblanc: Sheep Count, Catnip, Chocobo Rush, 100% Wool, Block Arrows, Fireshot, Boltshot, Confushot, Blindshot, Silenshot

Level 13 Human Thief Olivar: Steal Gil, Steal Accessory, Maintenance, Steal Armour, Steal Helm, Steal EXP, Counter, Steal Shield

Level 13 Bangaa Warrior/Dragoon Pablo: Mindbreak, Magicbreak, Speedbreak, First Aid, Powerbreak, Greased Bolt, Body Slam, Shieldbearer, Downsize, (Wyrmkiller)

Level 13 Nu Mou Black Mage/Time Mage Velasquez: Fire, Thunder, Blizzard, Fira, Thundara, Blizzara, Haste, Reflect, Silence, (Quarter)

Level 12 Viera Archer Elena: Boost, Aim: Legs, Blackout, Burial, Block Arrows, Aim: Arm, Cupid, Take Aim

Pablo actually became pretty good, his damage and survivability are almost as good as Marche's now. Velasquez is still awesome, and Gunners are always good, although Montblanc will be even better once he can learn Concentrate and Stopshot. My strategy for fights is basically to have Montblanc and Elena pepper my enemies with Blindshot and Aim: Arm, while my other guys run around doing damage. Olivar is probably the least useful because there's not much to steal this early on. Counter is good though.

[frat_tastic]

Just beat Ultima, only race left that can't change jobs is Humes. Red Mage get, super pumped about that.

Level 22 Hume Soldier/Items- Frat

Level 20 Moogle Time Mage/Black Mage- Montblanc

Level 19 Hume Archer/Items- Syrus

Level 19 Bangaa Templar/White Monk- Mondo

Level 21 Nu Mou White Mage/Items- Chaka

Level 18 Viera Red Mage/Fencer- Tosca

Montblanc has gotten a lot more useful for two reasons. One being Time Magic and the other being he learned Firaga and now just runs around speeding people up and exploding shit.

Frat, Mondo and Tosca all perform roughly the same and are good at melee combat. I expect Tosca to become very useful soon, especially once I get the rapier that teaches her Doublecast.

Syrus does less damage than the previously mentioned 3 but being an archer gives him a lot greater range and more versatility.

Chaka has prevented anyone from dying.

I'm about to go do another Jagd mission and am again terrified.

[BBM]

Beat the 4th Totema... No one's dead yet. The first Jagd mission was relatively easy, the second one was quite tough...

Team Meteor:

Level 17 Human Thief Olivar: Steal Gil, Steal Accessory, Maintenance, Steal Armour, Steal Helm, Steal EXP, Counter, Steal Shield

Level 16 Bangaa Warrior/Dragoon Pablo: Mindbreak, Magicbreak, Speedbreak, First Aid, Powerbreak, Greased Bolt, Body Slam, Shieldbearer, Downsize, Wyrmkiller, Jump, Lancet, (Fire Breath)

Level 17 Nu Mou Black Mage/Time Mage Velasquez: Fire, Thunder, Blizzard, Fira, Thundara, Blizzara, Geomancy, Haste, Reflect, Silence, Quarter

Level 17 Viera Archer/Sniper Elena: Boost, Aim: Legs, Blackout, Burial, Block Arrows, Aim: Arm, Cupid, Take Aim, (Doubleshot)

[BBM]

Beat the 5th Totema... Doing well so far. Also, got Concentrate on both Montblanc and Elena, yes! Just need Stopshot...

Team Meteor:

Level 23 Human Fighter/Items Marche: Shieldbearer, Combat Combo, (Far Fist), (Bonecrusher)

Level 22 Bangaa Dragoon/Items Pablo: Shieldbearer, Wyrmkiller, Jump, Lancet, Fire Breath, Dragonheart, Bangaa Cry, (Bolt Breath)

Level 21 Nu Mou Time Mage/Black Mage Velasquez: Fire, Thunder, Blizzard, Fira, Thundara, Blizzara, Firaga, Thundaga, Geomancy, Haste, Reflect, Silence, Quarter, Slow, (Quicken)

Level 22 Viera Sniper/Archer Elena: Boost, Aim: Legs, Blackout, Burial, Block Arrows, Aim: Arm, Cupid, Take Aim, Concentrate, Doubleshot, Death Sickle, Beso Toxico, (Conceal)

Pablo is a lifesaver whenever I face Dragons. Dragonheart is also AWESOME. Velasquez is starting to diminish a bit in utility, sadly. He deals incredible damage now that he has -aga Spells, but he dies very easily now, so he doesn't get to deal damage for very long. And reviving him is becoming more of a hassle now that less and less of my units are retaining the ability to use Items. Elena actually deals quite good damage now. The others are pretty much the same.
