I am not using a buffer. I usally XP in spots that drop herbs and if I see somebody else out with buffer I usally beg for buffs. Also what level are the mobs in FOM? I think I use to level there back when I was in my high 50s.
I see that alot for suggestions make a buffer lol. I level my freinds AW from time to time and I suggest making a buffer that you can summon not daul box. Basic buffs from them is nice and they work.
I would suggest forest of the dead, Stock up on emergecy cure bleeds. I know they made casting faster to heals those, but why waste mana and they work faster if in your hotbar and put them in the pets inventory too. Now some nasties in thier those cure bleeds wont work on, no worries you can figure out what do in that case I had too.
Now here's where I get hated on use NM light and since this is the setup my freind has on his AW with no cure bleeds what so ever and if I can level there like with him it should be a cake walk for you.
I only say NM light since it has 4% pdef and natural VR which should work nicely if you have and VR4 herb and taking less damage and a Crit Damage weapon to increase the VR amount back. But if no VR verb you little pet with you to spam heals on you. And I have yet to see an empty MP bar or even close to empty from it spammin constant heals. You level a pet like that then you have a freind for life ina way.
Just an Idea........ On what I have done and seen work out. I think what nice is FoTD give more exp then garden of beasts. BTW you should be able to exp a baby pet faster then most other classes.
So HF and GL and I only make suggestions so I hope this might work out for you if ya do it >.....
Ok, now I am LV 70 and looking for some good solo spots. I currently hunt solo outside of Goddard at Garden Of Beast and I duo with a SE sometimes at Wall Of Argos. Looking for some other spots.
