I've spent much of the day reading various stuff about BLUs. Maybe I'm slow and missed learning this stuff myself (or missed conversations where people spoke about it and thus discovered it from each other), or maybe it's just not general knowledge.

The biggest thing is that you do not need to get XP from the mob to learn the move. The mob has to be XP get-able (as in: not cfh'ed on, not a BST pet), but you could be a level 75 BLU killing things in the newbie zone and get the move. You could also let some 75 run around and kill stuff and you could learn the move that way.

You don't have to be involved in the fight, just in the "get XP" range.

You can learn moves up to 10 levels above you. (Furthest I've experienced was 4 levels above.)

You don't have to be facing the mob, you can turn your back and let it beat on you. (On the first day people were saying you couldn't learn it this way... Bah.)

I'm really not sure how I feel about this. On one hand, it feels like cheating to zoom up to a high level BLU and then be able to go back and get your missing spells. On the other hand, doing it the way I was doing it is a bitchkitty. I suppose I could join a party and get some levels, then come back and survive better against the spell-giving mobs...

(All this info comes from various message boards, Alla included, so take it with that grain of salt.)

I was going to be good and log off a little early, then decided to log off at the ferry to Al Expansion Pack... but the boat was there! So I got on and of course couldn't log off while on it, and then when we landed I just wanted to do one thing, oh wait! One more thing! Oh and I should do this....

Ha ha, now I'm an hour late!

BLU leveled up to 11. Learned Feather Storm and Sheep Song. Tomorrow is questing in the new area (I have only one piece of money left, plus I need to get the teleport ring). When next I BLU XP, I need to hit Windy again (Healing Breeze and Helldive).

If nothing else, BLU sure does keep me from ever getting bored!
