Meriting

[Salamari]

Hey guys!

Where are your favorite spots to merit when you're soloing? What exp were you getting? I recently started meriting solo and got 3k/hour exp at Mount Zhayolm using crawlers vs. pugils. Got ~115exp/3 minutes. I haven't been in Sky using birds vs pots/dolls in a long time. How's the exp rate in sky at 75?

Also, I'm looking into maxing Beast Affinity, currently 3/5, with 1 merit point. What should I merit after that? I'm working towards getting WAR to 75, and I already have 1 axe merit. Should I merit Call Beast Recast, Max MP, STR, CHR, Axe, Critical hit rate, etc. Thanks for the help!

Depends on your play style sal.... beast affinity is s def inate though get that no matter what... other than than specific bst stuff would be personal preference but reward timer is one I would do. Outside bst I would go for full axe merits then maybe crit hit rate and MP boost:)

Attributes (IMO) seem kind of exspensive. I plan on increasing STR eventually, but 220,000 xp to do so seems kind of painful atm.

So I put my effort into Axe. I only have 1 merit in Beast Affinity, but I also have the Monster Gloves....so didn't see that as a really important trait to have high on my list of things to increase.

If your going to lvl WAR you may want to increase Crit Hit Rate%...every little bit helps when lvling another job.

i wouldn't fully max out Axe depends on other jobs you want to lvl as well and depends on how often you plan on doing things regularly on your BST.

Crit hit rate though is a must imo for any jobs if you're going to lvl DD
Thats just my thought though
I only plan on meriting Axe though twice besides that im going GA and GKT and than i play PLD so fully meriting Shield like i said all of these are by my opinion though so it is up to how you play the game ^.^
