| I have found out something rather entertaining of late that I would like to share with my fellow outlaw brethren, rare as we are. Now, most guides have us training at Jr. Newties from level 94-120 or even higher in some cases. I am here to propose that that is absolutely insane, boring, and unless you leech, it basically makes our class unplayable. Or does it? After a bit of research, it seems I've found a fun little way to level for a large portion of that time that is a LOT more fun. And the answer will seem obvious and stupid, but please let me explain. The Headless Horseman. "But wait! I can never find one! And people always kill steal me!" Well, I've got a solution for that too, else I would never have bothered writing this. I call it the Slash and Burn technique (No copyrights here :D) and it works rather beautifully. If anyone else has come up with this before, promise I'm not stealing, its just something every outlaw needs to know. So here is what you do and what you will need. 1) Float! (of course) 2) Enough HP to survive a single hit from HH, 2900 or so ought to have you covered 3) The ability to deal enough damage to make this worthwhile, 3.5M EXP for 300K EXP is no laughing matter 4) At LEAST level 1 Gaviota, a VERY underrated skill (No casting time, what more could you ask for D 5) A good sense of timing 6) Dash or haste or some such nonsense 7) Recoil So here's what you do. Go to any of the cross roads maps (There are 3 of them and 19 different channels, that means up to 57 HH's per harvest if you do it right, though Cross Roads 3 is a bad idea due to the number of people who pass through on their way to lower ascent). Once there, hop on down to the bottom. Kill every evil tree that spawns on the bottom, or on that platform right above the entrance. This prevents sins and warriors and just about everyone else from killing a tree and making HH spawn. Now you're probably wondering "Wait, how on Earth do I conveniently hit those trees up top to make it spawn for myself?" That's where float, dash, recoil, and gaviota come into play. After waiting however long you've decided to wait (The respawn timer is about 12 hours, so figure out how long you can actually make yourself wait), go back to the map you slashed and burned all the trees in, and climb up the rope that should be to your right upon entering the map (if its not there, drop down below, you're on the top level). From there, dash to the left, cast float, and use recoil at the last possible moment to get yourself to a ledge no one else can get to (For references sake, one tree spawns here.) From here, cast gaviota and wait patiently for him to drop the bomb on one of the trees up top, hopefully killing it. If it doesn't kill it in one go, just send another bird. And, lo and behold, you now have a HH spawn that no other class could get to conveniently. A few quick notes about this technique. No, this is not a perfect thing. Sometimes the trees up top simply won't be there and you w |
