Losing inspiration :(

I have had my I/L mage for over 3.5 years now. I used to grind and grind, and eventually I reached level 96! But I then found leveling to be a pain... and I took a break... and I lost all inspiration. Could some fellow arch mages / bishops tell me what kept you going? Perhaps give me some tips? Training spots? Videos to help me? I am currently at red wyverns, and I get 0.03% per kill, which is good, but it takes me a while to kill them (3~6 seconds). And they do over 1.5k damage to me, and with amp, the pot costs are just extortionate. I'm going through 10 black pots from NLC every 1% :|

Use Ginger Ales. You'll use half as much, which will be cheaper. Red Wyverns is like 30%/hour. It's good enough to stay.

If you get a staff 3 at lv103, you'll train very fast comparing to other classes solo. Blizzard with an ice weapon is strong, strive for it. But if you're not likely to reach lv120, wait for KoC, maybe.

For started ur right, i lost motive many times, the main reason for me to reach a i/l AM was my bro and sis. we made a deal that they would fund my training and i would leech them up. some motives for u could be... a race with some 1 to lvl 120? to achieve blizzard? to e a 4th job =P? and if red wyrn are too hard i started newti at lvl 98, stand in the leeching spot and spam ice strike (NOTE* beware it will become extreamly boring =O)

For me, motivation was Chain Lightning :D. Couldn't wait for it - loved how it looked when it bounced off a chain of like 5 monsters haha. Anyhow, 10 Ginseng Roots / 1% isn't too bad? Exp at Wyverns isn't too bad until you start hitting 10x (that's when you start gaining 0.01 ._.)
