Sorry for the plosives, I had to basically put my mic in my mouth to avoid waking up my cat.

Cursed indeed
Soaking in Aurum Vale is a legitimate power move
So, having done this for a long long time you can easily make this happen with two players if you're a semi-competent BLU.
All you need to do is bring some tank spells, and the instakill combo of Rams voice + ultravibration. This is capable of removing all of the mobs between the boss and the entrance swiftly, especially if you round the corner in the boss room to force ranged mobs to come to you.
From there, you just do standard missile BLU shenanigans.
You can also just use the player being leveled as the sacrifice, then use the ability to teleport into boss arenas after 15 seconds.
8:40 "somehow always ends up in my videos" clearly your videos are made better by being graced with my presence /s
this strat was fun to try lol; my favorite is the ninja sneak variation even if it's the least optimal version of this specific strat simply because it's the most cursed
I don't have any friends. Make a strat for us antisocial degenerates to capture some friends so we can do this leveling technique.
Oh i forgot to mention some things.
The cursed information given was straight from the source. I did the research, i figured out the strats. Someone else likely reached the same conclusion but I found out what I did myself.
Furthermore I'd also look into sacrifice strats or NIN hide strats in stone vigil to see if leveling there is good for 41 to 47.
I've actually done this solo, by having 2 accounts. I have one free trial account with blue mage at level 60 and level on my main account.
Also you can solo sac by aggroing the boss, then dying very soon after. You are able to respawn before the 15s teleport prompt shows up, although the prompt sometimes disappears very quickly so you have to spam it. My go to strat for this was swiftcasting doom as blue mage then dying right after. If the doom lands, you kill the boss in 15s, if not you respawn and teleport to boss room.
You can actually start at a much lower level as well, although I dont think it will be as time effective as 47+ aurum vale.
lvl 20-32 halatali, you can run straight to the boss and since its a level 20 enemy, swift + level 5 death works fairly consistently, can also just doom/missile if it misses.
lvl 32-41 brayflox, you can sleep all the mobs while you get the key and open the boss door, the boss can be missiled/doomed.
lvl 41-47 stone vigil, you can solo sac, or maybe sleep? the mobs (haven't tested sleep), the boss can be missiled/doomed.
lvl 47+ aurum vale, you can solo sac first boss, second boss is fairly easy too. Burn first set of adds with primal spells, second set of adds can be walked past with precise pathing. I was able to get both down in about 3 minutes on average (sometimes as low as 2 minutes for both bosses if doom hits first cast)
All of these strats only require the blue mage to play while the leveled character just afks, and since the blue mage is level 60 none of these strats use ultravibe. You can significantly speed this up by using rams+vibe, especially aurum vale 2nd boss.
Sorry, I may be super sprout right here, but why can't you just have someone boost you by going to an area with high level mobs, tagging them then they kill them? That's how I got all my Blu levels, does that not work with other jobs or is this video assuming the player getting powerleveled doesn't have shadowbringers unlocked?
