ok, i'm a level 117 CB and i'll hit 120 this weekend. the problem is that my current training spot (himes) has become painfully slow (8%/h on normal exp) so i want to know if there is a better spot for me to train at. i'm maxing boomerang step first but i'll have 1sp in other skills aswell (smoke shell, shadow shifter, venom, assassinate, MW)

Unfortunately, your pot costs (including damage taken from MG) will not go down unless: a) your priest spams heal b) you somehow can live without MG (and have your priest spam heal) c) you start getting points into SS (lv1 will make a lot of difference) d) BS's cooldown gets lowered (which is next patch), so you tecnically get to be invincible more often e) you change your att/luk/dex/str gear into DEF gear

I'd stay at Himes till like late 12x then try out newties. I know from experience that some people are hesitant about partying shadowers in newtie parties due to not being able to kill them quickly for a few levels :S. That seems like very low % per hour for himes. I got more than that at 127 when the exp needed wasn't reduced. You should bomb them if you aren't already. It costs about the same as pots(Or at least it did for me).

I dunno, but in Broa, there's a somewhat shortage of newtie parties. Anybody gets accepted, really. I can take any of the platforms with a 3-mob BS (lv11+). Surprisingly enough, I'm actually pretty efficient.

skeles with a mage/bishop is the way to go, when u have decent bs, hate newties =' takes ages to transform, an di feel like i take more damage

How do you make 8% an hour at himes o_O I'm lvl 118 and (considering the changed exp curve) I now gain ~ 16-18 % per hour soloing on 1x, with just average eq's, and no major funding. I'll probably stay at himes until I get a 3-monster bstep.

Newties/Skeles is the best exp at your level, providing you can find a party with a bishop or a group with HS. Otherwise, you can stick with Himes for now. Good news is that once you reach a nice level (say 150+) Shadowers become the 2nd fastest trainers behind mages once our taunt is maxed. Because of this, finding parties is A LOT easier. I max out around 42mil exp per hour on 2x, and during the old 8x I got near 160mil per hour o.O
