Not sure if you got a chance to hit 37 on your Dancer subjob after that post. If not, figured I'd let you know the numbers I was getting with Drain Samba II. I was managing a fairly consistent 9-13 en-drain a hit. Also, on that note, if you're not aware, the drain effect is based on your delay. Current delay even(Popped hundred fists in a bad situation while testing out the sub, only en-drained 1-3 a hit, as my delay was nonexistent.) Seems to be that haste gear lowers your hp returned with the drain as well. Which brings to light an interesting possibility: Faith Baghnahks. Double attacked hits seem to not have any penalty levied against them, so I'd imagine the double attack from those would be the same. As well as with 110 delay, you're looking at about 15-17 hp a hit drained. I'll probably end up testing this theory out at some point today, let me know if you're interested in a follow-up.
actually I did, I was planning on writing another detailed entry about it but I've been busy and didn't get around to it yet. I tried faith+drain samba2 just a few days ago, but I also got 7-13hp drains and never more than that, although it's still nice:

I just wanted to leave a comment about your page here, its very cool! You have alot of information that I learned from, of course my main is Samurai, but I'm a Monk fan! I was forwarded here looking for info on /DNC for my Samurai, I sub /MNK when I play my Dancer, I love the Martial Arts and HP boost, in my opinion that's as good as it gets! ^, ~ Thanks for the info, and Keep up the great work! ==Spraynard Leviathan Server==

Hey this is Dalgon from Odin server i just wanted to say i stunbled apon your LJ today and man its amazing all the time and detail you put into it is amazing ill be checking back with you asap thanks for the post
What is your normal mob/zone progression for solo from 10-30+? I haven't leveled a lowbie job in a while, and I was thinking of doing lvl 10 SAM (maybe /bst for kicks and faster xp).
I don't have quite a single camp progression and I try to change it up a bit depending on the job or what I feel like doing (it's fun to try new camps etc)
However in general I choose my camps to be one jump away from cities and with a nice arrangement of monsters, so from 1-10 usually I go near cities (so for example near bastok progressively climbing mountains or near windurst also entering towers etc), and then usually after that I go to something like outpost-reachable zones, then korroloka tunnel or things like maze if I want to fight worms, and eventually I move to something like Qufim and del.tower because those are also just an outpost warp away, and then around 30+ to 37 I try to move to CoP areas (Mis.Coast or whichever one has the outpost usually), which is always pretty deserted and has a nice combination of monsters.
