Alright i've seen guides for soloing and whatnot but i came to the game with my inrl wife. And well once we start reaching 2x when we start getting all the same quests it is our intention to duo nonstop.

Currently i'm focusing on my healing skills... mainly and buffs. I've upgraded Plume Shot and Cyclone as much as possible for grinding so far, however have been ignoreing the new debuffs and such i get since i never have time to use them and don't plan to spend a great deal of time attacking anyways.

My wife is playing a Psychic and when partied together there is little time for me to do much attacking... normally a cyclone to help her out for starter and that's about it.

I'm not familiar with higher lvl skills and wouldn't mind some advice from a party oriented ideal. Like i said... we don't care how hard it gets we're going to duo b:thanks

Thank you to all who respond :)

    OMG yall, thaz soooo cute! +.+
    If you're planning on being mostly supportive, level Ironheart Blessing first. It becomes the go to heal spell. Next is Wellspring Surge, which is a life-saver at times, because if leveled well, it heals about half HP very quickly. Blessing of the Purehearted can wait until higher levels (I still havent maxed it, ha ha).
    Your buffs should also be up to date.
    Your debuffs can wait until higher levels.
    Attack wise, plume shot and cyclone are good ones to max even if you don't use them often. They are fairly quick skills, so you may get more than just one hit in, ha ha.

    Yes, I love PWI that much. Every class is awesome in their own way.

    If you upgrade Elemental Shell, your wife will be able to kill mobs faster (as their elemental defences are reduced).

    Keep Plume Shot leveled for those Increased Magic Resistant mobs that your wife will have problems with.

    That's Elemental Shell.

    lolwut?

    Never ever lv Blessing of Purehearted.
    Leave it at lv 1.It is a good chi builder and the mp cost is low at lv 1.

    Yes, Plume Shot is a great idea to balance your playing team out. With regards to the earlier post, I don't really agree that Blessing of the Purehearted has any use in later levels - particularly if you level Wellspring. I know many clerics who have left it at Level 1 and use it to gain chi - this is more beneficial due to its decreased mana cost at level 1.
    That's Elemental Shell.

    Did I make a typo? b:chuckle

    I see the use for Plume Shot ... wasn't thinking about the melee damage before. Elemental Shell... i'll give it a try tho i haven't really used it yet. Normally it's just hit this skill or that and she has em dead before i can switch. With melee mobs atm my Cyclone and our combined attacks stops everything dead in their tracks.

    We just whip through quests and grind like everything is made out of water. Though i assume it gets more difficult later? Since i would not expect that grinding as we do would always be faster then solo.... i mean we go so fast that i gain 2x as much xp and sp then i can solo due to sp and whatnot.

    I am working hard to craft our own armor and weapons... it's an arduous task to find the mats but i'm working on it.

    The fact that i can carry her wherever helps alot in these begginning lvls. Though now we have the daunting task of doing our fb... as it turns out we may need help lmao. I'll have to hunt down someone for that.

    *snortle* You're right, it is! Thank you b:laugh.

    Regarding Elemental Seal, if you're finding that you're killing mobs faster than you can cast skills... there's no real need for it for now :).

    There'll be plenty of people to help with your FB, both high and low in level. If I can recommend doing it with lower levels I would - you will learn a lot more about the FB by going with a team that has to work through it, rather than going with a high level rush team. I remember my first FB29 on the PWMY server, I didn't even realise what happened by the end cause it went so fast b:surrender.

    When you get to about ~40 maybe AoE grinding would be a possibility. I'm a nub at all things psychic but don't they have about 3 aoes that don't need sparks? Could round up a bunch of magic-only mobs and get your wife to nuke em while you heal and throw razor feathers + heal.
