  • FFXIV: How To Quickly Level Up Blue Mage? (Level 1-80)

    Posted: Jul 31, 2023

    If you want to level up Blue Mage, you’ve probably been trying to do some quests to level up the class, but probably to little effect. Since you can’t do Roulettes, Squadrons, Deep Dungeon or PVP, even FATEs and level quests don’t seem to have much to do.

    You might think that this class seems to take a long time to level up. But when you see your FC do it all in one night, you know you’re doing it wrong.

    So, I’m going to tell you the tricks to get started quickly with a Blue Mage here. By the way, if you didn’t already know, you can unlock Blue Mage by completing the quest “Out of the Blue,” which is available after Limsa Lominsa level 50.

    How To Get XP?

    Blue Mage starts at level 1 and currently maxes out at level 80. The secret to Blue Mage is that they earn more XP fighting enemies in the open world than any other class.

    Therefore, as a Blue Mage trying to get to a certain level, you’re going to need to find more groups of monsters. You can cluster them tightly together to increase the efficiency of gaining XP.

    Blue Mage has no ranged attacks, and no special resistances or abilities. But when you kill monsters higher than your level, you get Experience Chain. This increases the amount of XP you get for killing each monster in a short amount of time. The higher Chain, the higher XP reward you get. You can see all chain information right below the experience bar.

    Precautions

    When upgrading Blue Mage, there are a few things you need to keep in mind. One, you’ll need to preserve your XP while you’re at rest by logging out in the city. You know you’re getting rest XP when you see the moon here. It gives an extra 50%, so it works really well.

    Second, you can wear any EXP items you may have. You can grab some outfits with FFXIV Gil, or pre-order earrings from the expansion to maximize your EXP.

    Third, claim Heat of Battle buff from your Free Companies, or use Squadron Battle Manual for an extra XP bonus.

    At last, there are also two options here when it comes to how to kill enemies. It depends on whether you want to do it alone or if you have a friend who can help. If you’re going solo, you’ll need to take all the above into consideration, get out your Chocobo Companion, and travel across Eorzea.

    Get Spells

    From level 1 to level 50, you need to focus on acquiring new spells. Focus your leveling on adds and what needs to be learned. You can learn any Blue Mage spell at any level. The premise is that you see the enemy cast the spell before they are defeated. You don’t have to be hit by it or ask the spell to be cast on you, so don’t needlessly sacrifice yourself in pursuit of magic.

    Once you have a sufficient number of spells, you can start targeting specific groups of monsters above 50. You can try looking at caves and beaches, where there are often large numbers of monsters congregating in small spaces.

    Keep in mind that you’ll probably have to upgrade your armor at least every 20 levels along the way. Especially when you have a hard time defeating mobs that are at least 1 level higher than you. However, if you can find a friend, the process becomes infinitely easier. You don’t need to worry about armor. You can go from 1 to 80 in just an hour or two.

    How To Upgrade Quickly?

    This upgrade method involves using Claim Mechanics. You need to bring a level 90 friend. But the caveat is that you must first use a skill to defeat the enemy, such as Flying Sardine. Then your friends beat them. Since you’re the first to hit them, and you don’t share EXP with the party, you’re rewarded with full EXP. Repeat this until you reach level 80.

    But whatever method you choose, reaching level 80 is just the tip of the iceberg in Blue Mage. You still have so many spells to learn, so many achievements to earn, and the whole Masked Carnivale to complete. This might make your trip to Eorzea more interesting.

  • FFXIV: How To Complete Shadowbringer’s Dungeons Solo With Blue Mage?

    Posted: Jul 22, 2023

    With the level up to 80, there are now a ton of cool new spells to hunt actively, many of which are dungeon related. While you might join Blue Mage spell hunting groups, many people prefer to do this part alone with Blue Mage.

    So I’m going to introduce you to a simple guide. This guide focuses on how to complete Shadowbringer’s Dungeons for a single player using relatively few spells. That’s where we’re going to start now.

    Blue Mage Spells

    Unless you’re completely new to Blue Mage, you should already have most of the spells you need. Our spell list contains all Blue Mage built Aetheric Mimicry, especially Healer Mimicry. Because it will help us improve our survivability. Because under the effect of Healer Mimicry, Pom Cure’s Cure potency can be increased to 500 points.

    Two other key spells that alone can do Mighty Guard and sustain Basic Instinct follow this. It increases your Gear Durability and damage after combining spells. We also have another Ram’s Voice and Ultravibration, which is standard for any dungeon build. Even without Ultram, it’s a powerful form of CC that can take on monsters.

    Speaking of which, another pleasant addition is Bad Breath. This reduces damage and provides additional CC while in Paralysis state when the enemy is no longer frozen. Our next spell is Missile, and there are a lot of bosses that are susceptible to it, so it’s a no-brainer for us.

    Turn to our damaging spells. We have Bertha Randall and Song of Torment, two powerful spells that allow us to deal damage to enemies while staying alive. But you also need to bring Bristle to enhance them.

    Finally, we have Goblin Punch, which is easily our top pick, as it quickly buffs our Mighty Guard. Now you may notice that we still have a lot of slots available. Although I will note, you can fill these with whatever damage or utility you have at your disposal.

    How To Complete Shadowbringer’s Dungeons?

    Next, after we get into Shadowbringer’s Dungeons, you want to make sure “Undersized Party” and “Level Sync” options are turned on. Only after that can you actually enter the dungeon. 

    Once you’re in an instance, it will ensure you can always learn spells. But you need to invest some FFXIV Gil to ensure that Mighty Guard and Basic Instinct are activated. After this, you are ready.

    First, we can pull with Ram’s Voice and Ultravibration to deal with these enemies with ease. As for the next set, you have a few options, and you can wait for your Ultravibration to cool down. Or you can fight each enemy individually, and there’s not much difference in the amount of time required between the two methods.

    If you are not currently using any extra DPS spells and choose to fight. Then you can attack enemies with Ram’s Voice and Breath of Magic. When they’re immune to freezing, use Bad Breath, CC, and Pom Cure as needed, whichever you choose.

    Once you’ve defeated these enemies, you’ll see a boss. When seeing Stacking or Tank Buster while your level is below 50, as long as you are actively healing and don’t Greed, then you won’t die. This means it’s just a war of attrition, and as long as your DoT stays active, the boss will eventually die.

    Then you can focus on DPS, whether it’s spamming Goblin Punch, or using any other destructive abilities at your disposal. This is how every dungeon develops. The biggest difference is the difficulty of the bosses. Some bosses will have more difficult mechanics and others will have easier mechanics, depending on the situation.

    Final Thoughts

    That’s everything you need to know to complete Shadowbringer’s Dungeons solo. This guide assumes you have a minimum of spells. Because the more spells, the easier the challenge.

    The hardest part of actually doing this is really just understanding the mechanics of a particular fight. Anyway, hopefully this guide will help you finish Shadowbringer’s Dungeons faster. Good luck.
