Beastmaster Equipment to 30 : FFXI Submissions

When i began leveling Beastmaster i researched what equipment i found would be useful for lvling at low levels, it only goes to 30 because i stopped levelling BST to continue with DRK... Anyway this is the list i have come up with for useful items in each slot.

Here is the format of this Guide to help you understand how i wrote it:
-Items listed in Bold are generally expensive but reccomended for their stats
-Items listed in Italic give MP boosts for those races that do not have very much MP at these levels
-Items listed in Black are for use during fights
-Items listed in Red give Charisma boosts and are reccomended for charming mobs (If you have a CHR and MP equip for same slot do not change during fight unless you plan to rest your MP back)
-As for RSE, i put in in because some are excellent and some may not be, use your own discretion to decide whether your RSE is better or worse than another piece

Please Note that none of this equipment is by any means necessary it is just what i put together that i felt would be the best equipment i could use from what i could see. Some equipment is rare/ex and/or very difficult to obtain, like the rajas/tamas ring which is obtained from finishing CoP, and you can only have one of the two.

no because it is only to 30. common sence for any bst to know what gears to use ,i know ive taken bst to 75 3 times now, working on my 4th in a few months, just by use and should NOT follow a guide, gears you use depends on the situation, your job, play style, etc so you can NOT follow a guide case closed. this info is easily findable on alla in the bst guides they have so again NAY
