What do you do with your 75 bst?
I hit 75 a few days ago, and have never had such an unclear idea of what I wanted to do with a job.
What are some good camps that aren't Groundskeepers or Elder Goobues? Good nms?
How do you spend quality time with your 75 bst?

as a rite of passage, you have to kill despot. its essential in the life of a bst.
though with this FoV thing, i dont know how possible that is all the time anymore
beyond that, I'm a die hard bst, if my account ever gets unbanned from this stupid credit card thing SE implemented, ..
anyways - what I used to do was solo in La Vaule, though now i have everything I need from it except Fenian ring. but beyond that, soloing megatough nm's is in your future. farming is always good, elder goobbues arent exactly my cup of tea though

Thanks for the advice Nattack.
Despot? When I was leveling in sky, it occurred to me that I might be able to solo it but I assumed that once someone noticed a bst trying to solo it, they would just come and steal it as soon as I pet swap. Then again, Despot isn't exactly the prized claimed it once was, and likewise, sky is not nearly as busy as all the FOV nay sayers are saying.
If there's no LS farming sky, then there are usually 3-5 people in the entire Ru'Avitau zone. Not a big deal.
I was very disappointed with BSTiing in the Boyahda tree. My image of 75 bst is of this JP player on Alexander, Dali, who practically lived in Boyahda back when it was prime leveling real estate. I just imagined it was an AMAZING place to get exp and farm. As it turns out, it's a shitty place for exp. Farming is so/so. But what really surprised me is that it is not an easy place to camp! Not necessarily a bad thing, but the choosing between fighting where the Korrigans spawn, which can be dangerous and running back and forth to a safer spot... just not a very fun camp in my opinion.
Anyway, La Vaule is a fantastic idea! Looking over the NMs there, looks like a lot of fun challenges to be had there! Thanks again for the tips ^^

Whatever you choose to do after your BST gets to 75, even if you level another job it's always there for you when you need it.
I've spent a lot of time helping my brother who is currantly levelling BST to 75 by using my BST to duo not only exp but helping him with his sky access.
We've also been farming Hakutaku eyes for his cluster synth and lets face it, not many jobs can actually solo wooden eyes at Den of Rancor.
I would like to duo Despot some day but I don't want to attempt to solo it incase of losing claim like Auronius has said earlier.
The thing that might make Despot a little harder to manage would be if people were actually killing off most of the bird pops which are needed as pets since those are a target mob for FoV.
I have experienced a little of this while I tested Sky FoV with my brother (Penfold) and there was a few characters up there already taking down a lot of birds.

Small question here, since I never dared to loose a tag just to check.
Are the mobs in Nyzul charmables?
