    It depends on race and gear, but yes, its generally regarded as one of the hardest (and most rewarding) classes in FFXI.

    You need to be lvl 30 to unlock the job (easy quest) and preferrably with /whm as subjob to solo effectively.

    Definatly the hardest in the game to get to 75 or req. constant skill (its not like a mindless melee job like MNK )

    i've never personally lvl'd bst but i suggest:

    -lvl whm to 37 for sub
    -lvl nin to 37 for sub

    once you hit 35 you get the ability Leave, leveling gets alot easier, but good luck getting that high. image

    thing is, BST never get pt, maybe sometimes in Valkrum Dunes in the beginning, but most of the game they solo all they're EXP, so that would take like 10 times as long as a pt, and they die all the time because solo'ing is risky for any job really.

    it just takes so long, thats really the main reason image

    so going /WHM is probably the best choice in the start, then later you might wanna go /NIN, which is soooooo unbelieveable, then you might even get pt.

    i had a lvl 26 BST once, i got a pt in Kazham without seeking cause of /NIN.

    Actually depending on the amount of tiem you ahev to play BST could lvl faster than other melees. After Leave I know BST that get 300+ EXP chains so its entirely possible to get good exp/hr. Also, BST dont have to wait for the right members to make a PT or wait for an invite. BST can just get up and go to where they want to lvl.

    finding good spots to level is very important for bst.  But im afraid actually getting xp chains isnt really gonna happen until Lv.35+ also when you get twards the 65-75 area you'll probably find BST party's which make things more fun and faster xp.
