Great Spell For Soloing

Just Killed a couple of <Damfelfly> (Very Tough, High DEF) at Level 20 (BLM\RDM) today.Started Fight with <Bind> so i can do the other spells, <Choke> to lower his DEF and DoT, <Blind> then <Blizzard> 1 times then he unbounds and i move back until my bind come available (run away alittle), Cast bind (he should miss because i casted blind) then move back and cast 3 more <Blizzards>.Thats it, if you're lucky he wont even hit you if you not then you will lose a little hp.

This works well in front of selbina (you can zone)
1 in 4 the bind doesn't stick (just cast bind again.)
I had Lots Of INT Boost
I had Top Notch Gear (Best Gear)

If i didn't have <bind> then i could't have killed them. Great Spell if you get agro in the dunes (or wherever)you can bind before you run away to zone(gives you a head start).

1) Bind does not lower xp ... no spell lowers xp of a mob.

2) Bind will infact go away when a melee hit lands on the bound mob.

3) this spell is excellent in a mana burn (all blm party) or soloing.

Bind is supposed to be used as a solo spell. You cast bind, the creature cant move, and you contine to rain down fire and hell from above. Once it comes off the creatures is usually dead or hurt alot, unless you were very unlucky.

I've seen this used in a very un usualy party. full party of 6 BLMs goes into jugner forest, they are all around like level 16. They go decided they want to fight a tiger, one of them casts bind they cast on it, bind wears off and another casts bind, they repeated this over and over and over.
BIND LOWERS EXP

1. I've been told from various players that if I use my bind spell on a monster during a melee round in a party, it LOWERS exp. Can anyone confirm this?

2. If I use this spell during solo play, will it do the same? lower exp

3. Is this spell only good for trying to escape when things are getting pretty bad for a party?

I don't know that it lowers XP and have never seen any evidence that it does.

The one thing though that i wish BLM's would stop doing is wasting MP by casting bind on the monster being fought. A melee hit breaks bind so you really do nothing but waste MP and generate alot of hate doing no damage.
RE: BIND LOWERS EXP? NOT!

Bind does not wear from melee hits. A smart blm about to nuke towards the middle/end of a fight will always toss a bind on the mob. And i tested your theory after i read this. Definately wrong.

And there is no xp loss from bind >.>

Can't say about the EXP thing. I've never noticed it, though.

But bind is a lot more useful than just for escape. The most obvious is to bind a monster first, so you get several turns to enfeeble/nuke him before he's able to get close enough to hit you. If he has no ranged attack, you can sometimes finish him off before the bind wears off.

Another case is where a second monster is about to join a battle in progress. Bind can often keep him out of the battle long enough to finish off the first one, and not have two to deal with at once.
very very good spell at lower levels
