Which is faster for an Aran? I'm planning on staying at MP3 for 2 more levels normal training then rushing to 70 on 4x. And how much accuracy do I need to hit either?

WR are quick and easy kills as to were Jesters are a little more time consuming. As far as people saying Jesters are horrible, its not true, it all depends on how fast you can kill em. I for one trained at Jester from 65-76 no problem whats so ever. It's all preference. And as far as WR and the jump quest I suggest you do the 2 quests that gives you the marker of heroism, it will come in handy if you plan on being there for a long tim.

Well if you're an aran, im imagining jesters are better just because they dont die as fast

[quote] danielr : Dont fall of the map at WR. Ruins your %/hr. EDIT:You dont have to redo JQ if you logout. [/quote] Just spam pots and you'll be respawned at the bottom of the map again.. It's not that hard to get there, from haunted house you get the very right portal to the bent tree or so, then u take the upper left portal, you should be in a map with NPC's now, take the very right portal, take the very right portal again, now walk to the left and skip 1 portal so take the 2nd, go directly to your left, now you should be in a map with elderwraiths and stuff just follow the map there (make sure u dont fall down). The JQ is pretty easy too, it shouldn't take longer than 10 minutes.

[quote] dudeitzmeh : Okay, just a few more things (thanks for answering everything so far) 1. How do I get to WR's? (not just the jump quest, I've never even been to NLC lol :S) 2. Would I be able to hit them before I get a Karstan? I'm using a Super Snowboard right now. 3. How do I get to Wolf Spiders? 4. How hard is it to find an open Channel at WR's? [/quote] In the bent tree, take the top left portal. You'll be in the screen with the bandits. Take the right portal and watch out for bf. Go one portal left, then the next 2 maps go all the way right. Next go 2 portals left. You'll be up top of a map with a few WRs. Take the left portal, and follow the mini jq up to the portal. Next do the pillars. Keep your timing right to go up and over the pillars, the path is pretty easy to follow the first screen. Second map of the pillars go under the first one and go right until you reach the second, then do the up and over thing. Sorry if this doesn't make much sense, too lazy to look up the map names, and I'm tired.

with apple training would twisted jester become better with 4x assuming you can hit both 100%? and for lower ascent you could just vip tele there :D

Twisted jesters and Wind raiders are the same in terms of EXP. I've trained there both for a given 8 hours each. Pot burning at storm breakers in the corridor is the fastest from 60-70 though :3

I would prefer jesters over wr. The jesters map is more movable and stable, while the wr map is more rigged up. If u can gather huge mobs and just spam full swing every time, you'd be combo smashing a lot. The path to lower ascent for wrs is complicated, and you might die from the JQ, or bigfoot (if you meet 1). Jesters is more reliable and safe. (In my opinion). I've trained there since lv 70 to 78, and never went to wrs on this aran.

I was at TJ's from 60 - 75 and only took 2 days on 4x. This was during the week though, so now "U KS MEH I REPORT U" BS. I did 4x about 8hours for both of those days.

I wouldn't recommend twisted jesters. The map set up is amazing however, since it is a popular leech zone in some servers, you might be ksed half way through your 2exp or just have trouble finding a map. Wrs though seems a bit more isolated now a days although, if you can tele to a friend in CWK and just train in the wr room there, you might find that the exp is pretty decent.

In terms of Exp WRs are about 1.5 times as good as Twisted Jesters. If you go to Jesters it's just a waste of your 4x Exp. At level 64 I was getting around 70% an hour at WRs and around 45%/Hr at TJs. Just look at some vids on how to circle the map properly, if you know how too well enough you can keep your combo. When I started adding to Critical and was a bit higher level (75) and started killing the SBs as well I could get combos of over 500 at lower ascent. You can basically keep your combo forever if you know how to move around the map.

I took me 2hrs to get to Lower Ascent on my Wind Archer, but I think its still worth it. The JQ is really easy, I just didn't know how to get through it. EDIT: I just did the JQ like 30 min ago on my Aran and I got through it perfectly two times in a row (the only times I did it on my aran). And I have 40 Base Dex and only 121 acc without Theif Elixir. With The Theif Elixir I can hit them around 85-95% of the time. And WRs have REALLY good exp compared to mp3 or Twisted Jesters so I say do WR.

You can already hit them, One other thing that set jesters apart from mobs its level is that it has low avoidility. I started on jesters at 51 with 135 acc

i would say jesters because gettin ur rep mules to wr or going bak and fourth is to painful at wr or u can waste nx and tele to wr bak and fourth i guess but if not i think jester is worth it more
