A lot of people claim that lmpq is faster than CPQ2 and that the exp is much greater, claiming that cpq2 is useless. Well, today I am here to say that they are wrong when you do the correct math. Ok, Cpq2 approximately 88k exp for 5 minutes... that's 176k exp in 10 minutes. Lmpq exp is (with 2x drop) 15k exp a minute, assuming the party is fast. Now, last time I checked, 176 > 150. There we go Cpq2 > Lmpq Oh what's that? You say you can't find a trade win to quit for you at five minutes? Ok no problem, seeing as I just calculated these pq's at their best conditions, I will now try to calculate them at average conditions. Cpq2: 10 minutes 88k (again, estimated) Lmpq: Anywhere from 0-15k a minute. To estimate this I will use the median amount of exp in lmpq, the best way to determine it although not accurate at all, it's all I got. Average exp in lmpq = 7k now 7k x 10 = 70k. 88k > 70k. Granted, you will not always get 7k it could be more, but it could be less. I beg you to overlook this minor mis-calculation because there is no way of determining lmpq exp. Thank you for your time and Happy Mapling.

There is no way of determining CPQ2 EXP too. You can lose and win rank abc. Don't forget that.

Ludibrium Maze Party Quest will be much easier to get in now since everybody is going for Carnival Party Quest 2.

Nice, never really tried to look at it mathematically, Guess you just showed all those nay sayers.

Well, this was all assuming that you do win. And you can get 88k in five minutes. Oh dear, I just made a terrible mic-calculation. D; @caliopi since when was lmpq hard to get in?

lightmajid : Who the heck said 88k in 5mins O.O its 88k in 10mins IF you win. They do this thing where once you get to 500 points the other party leaves, takes about 5 minutes, guess you didn't read yesterdays thread.

@hellbound I calculated 2x drop + 1 minute pq's, and some people (like me) are rich and don't need mesos, just exp. @banditgod We all have our opinions on fun, personally wind raider grinding is much more fun to me than all these pq's.

The rombot equivalent in CPQ2 is a Gigantic Spirit Viking. Do you think that's a good choice?
