This guide contains my reccomendation for the aspiring Endgame Black Mage. With the Abyssea Expansion, leveling up is not what it used to be, however, this guide's sole purpose is to show the BLM world How I do things. i encourage anyone that has any suggestions to better this guide, feel free to post either directly, or on suggestions page. This guide will be updated and added to periodically.

As a BLM you Will need Multiple Staves to ensure:
*A. The most Potential from your Nuke.
