WOW Power Leveling: The pets fight on orders and often do the tanks job for their master
FFXI Jobs: Beast Master - FFXI Beast Master is an Advanced Job that requires you to unblock it before you can play the role. To unlock it you have to achieve WOW Power Leveling at least a level 30 and complete the Beast Master Quest.
FFXI Beast master Advantages: With their unique ability to cast 'control' over enemy beasts they can make an army of their own and be well in control, both in parties and alone.
The idea is that the The FFXI BeastMaster casts spell over beasts of equal or lower 'level' than himself. The pets fight on orders and often do the tanks job for their master. This continues until they die, your duration of control expires or the pet breaks the spell and becomes the antagonist again.
FFXI Beast master Disadvantages: Occasionally, it is possible to have control over beasts of higher levels but these are very likely to attack you if they break your spell. You can count on it that if a pet does break away; it is going to do it at the most inopportune moment possible!
FFXI Beast master Race Issue: They are a versatile class so any race would do. Strengthen them according to your race's plus points to excel. Enjoy!
