lol, they gave rng TA

lol

also no.

poor way to try to fix rng :/

yay, I can trick attack one ws every minute, and the other 4 I do during that time for 4k+ wont pull hate....

thats good if you don't pull hate isn't it? or is it that 4k ws's suck?
I don't see the problem here Mry

my rng was a DD for the generations ;[

Hate issues for a Rng are an easy fix. Just do what I did.

Do massive dmg > pull hate > die > get raise

rinse and repeat.

On an unrelated note, how long would it take to level a job, say thf, pld or bst from level 1? or level 37?

I have Ruf's info, but besides sam he only has boring mage jobs leveled to 75. I think he had thf to 37 but probably not the other two.

I started blu from level 23, and took it to level 73 in about 4 days. I could have been faster than that if I had known about the gusgen mines book burn parties, and hadn't stopped to learn spells. Right now I'm skilling blu magic skill to learn more spells.



From level 30 - 70 you mindlessly exp in CN book burns. It starts to get slow around the 70s so you can go to sandy sewers books to solo or team up with someone for more exp. Then at 75 you can easily get in a abyssea exp shout. Abyssea exp so fast you'll probably hit 90 from 75 in one sitting (around 5 hours). Btw you can afk in abyssea parties. People might even be happy, they just want to dominate with their awesome dmg so you killing stuff before they can try something out just mess up their day.

5 hrs for 15 levels??
is there an ez way to skill up these days?
second thought guess not if you're in sea killing goldfish lol

Yeah, skilling up is the worst part of leveling up so fast. It sucks! You're so gimp at 90 until you get the ability to hit stuff regularly. The Atmas and cruor bonuses help, in abyssea only. Buffs like atributes +40 each, and super powers atmas like: Infinite reraise, physical damage taken -50%, triple + double attack +30%, mega mp regen. Stuff that allow you to be gods basically.



See the buffs at the top? VIT AGI DEX MND etc? Cruor buffs

The 3 black and purple tiger looking icons are 3 different atmas. This whm is coked up on performance enhancing drugs. He will jack your stuff up pvp if you cross him with no atmas of your own.

Also, that tower thing with the glowing yellow neon riced out mods can fully cure anyone that touch it. It's hard to wipe in abyssea, which is why I was so interested in those people almost dying to that Alex type NM. Reminded me of old ffxi where stuff was tough.

Basically, after you do 40k damage in 30 seconds, you die.

trick attacking 4k of that 40k isn't going to keep you from pulling hate :/

o, can pretty much do 30-90 in a night if you get a good dominion ops or FC party

Id be happier with my 12 bucks.

tops frozen pizzas are like $2.50 and they're decent sized

Totally wasn't thinking of it that way, Now I see what you mean.

lol it's still 12$ a month for a 10 year old game??
When I quit I worked it out to something like 400$ spent for monthly fees, almost 2 years ago lol

Mrdude wrote:o, can pretty much do 30-90 in a night if you get a good dominion ops or FC party

I did Whm from 45-85 in a FC party. Only took 8.5 hours and I got to watch movies and sleep.

in my days we had to walk uphill in 3' of snow just to get to the exp camp

Got blu to 90 from 78 last night. Ran across the taru named Sukasaroth again, and he's actually Suka. Told me he has a endgame LS and a lot of familiar faces are in it. He's a ranger D:

I maxed exp and merits, from 2, without knowing.
