	* Re: Starting Level		* Re: Starting Level

	Most of the starting levels listed are 1-3 levels below the max level of the main pet you'll want in that area. Yes, this means you can and should be charming Ts if that's what is available, rather than spending time trying to convert to EM (no Leave anyway until 70). With Horizon's Rebase, this is harder now. Mobs are noticeably (and imo rightfully) more difficult to charm. If you have standard Charm equipment and are prepared for the occasional mischarm, this shouldn't be a big problem. You can play to your job's strengths. On NIN or THF, maybe that's your shadows and/or evasion. On BLM or RDM, maybe you can cast Sleep on your target as your pet is about to die/uncharm. On WHM, maybe you're cure bombing yourself while you wait for Charm cooldown (with RR up ofc) Maybe you'll have to decide between keeping TP or sacrificing it to Charm with Light/Apollo's staff, etc.		Most of the starting levels listed are 1-3 levels below the max level of the main pet you'll want in that area.

	* Re: Drops vs. XP		* Re: Drops vs. XP
	The listed camps have a greater focus on drops in general, since the difference between 2k vs. 4k/hr is not so significant in my opinion. If you were really interested in XP, you'd just start/join a burn party to churn 10K/hr+. Better to think of soloing as farming with a bit of XP on the side. For that reason, I tend to pass on targets with bad drops, even if the level gap is good.
