WHM Guide to Everything WHM

The Beginning
As you can tell, this is a work in progress, please do not edit this without permission from myself. Now one might ask, what qualifies a person to write about a job in FFXI. Well in this case I have leveled WHM to 75 in both the old school point of view in which the emphasis was located mostly on the ability of a WHM to be quick and be able to remove status effects as quick as possible, yet still being efficient. Now since the release of ToAU, WHM has undertaken a new job, we are now expected to be more MP efficient than ever with 4-5 DD haste cycles, Casting Regen on the dying DD, Cure bombing the "Tank" who just got hit with an ugly TP attack, AND keep track of the few status effects that mobs in the areas have. While all of this may sound like a lot to some, or on the other side of the spectrum, this may sound extremely easy, there is only one answer to which is correct. It simple is, they both are. WHM is even more of skillfully played job than WHM in the old days, if you can master the skills on the way up from level 1 to 75 then you will will prosper as a WHM and have no problem with getting your high end gear, because every high level LS wants, or should we say needs a good supporting cast and NO ONE cures better than a WHM, no matter how much they say they can.

Now you might say, what is this guy talking about, end game? Haste cycles? 4-5 DD partys? But I'm just a level 11 whm being yelled at because I don't have a spell called Cure II. Well, this guide will begin at the low levels and move up. One thing that I have learned in many years of playing WHM, is that everyone expects a WHM to be good at their job, but no one will help them and teach them. So now I have undertaken the task of becoming this teacher. This guide will begin as though a character was beginning at level 1 WHM with no previous FFXI experience and move onto bigger and better things, hitting things such as Sub Jobs, Jungle Airship, AF, Renkai missions, and where I can, I'll add in additions of how you can solo some of these things, because lets face it. You're not always going to have someone to help you out.
