Well i blew up most of my equips. couple days ago. I grind on 1x but its way to slow (no reps) and im broke down to my last mil. which pretty much cover pot costs. im pretty upset. because now my lvl 112 dexless cb is outdmging me. and its sad to see that i cant do anything these days. any motivation? 3 levels seems way to long now being broke.(and bad damage.)

If you want to be able to compete with others damage-wise you've sort of started the wrong class to begin with. :S Go to Typhons and grind to Shadowerhood. That's what I did as well. And I also hardly ever use(d) rep. I'd hate the get used to it.

No pav I know that we cant compete damage wise. it just shocked me that my dmg dropped severely if its where my lvl 112 friend is. That just...shocked me XD. Ive been grinding at typhons. it seems soo slow though.

Ive been grinding at typhons. it seems soo slow though. [/quote] I countered Typhons grinding being slow and boring using the following ingredients: 1. A TV 2. Digital antenna (cable, a DvD player or HDR works as well) 3. If 1 and 2 are lacking a computer with a DvD player suffices 4. If 1, 2 and 3 are lacking a book works, but you need to flip the pages or hold down the pages if they flip spontaneously 5. A cup of tea and chocolate And I ground in "sections". Half an hour, make tea, have lunch, grind another half hour, (WHOA, there's a really scary looking news reported on Tv O_O) clean something up, read, grind, etc etc. And you can feel a little accomplished if you made Shadowerhood with low(er) damage. I sort of felt like that. XD I just challenge myself or allow myself to be challenged and evetually I get there.

Hi EnigmaX, Well, if you've already gotten to 117, you're not gonna quit now are you? I myself thought the last 3 levels were hell as well, but you can get through it! If you need some funding, take some time off to make a little bit of money so you have a cushion to work with. Then go back to training. Also, try to find a party with 2x buff. You can accomplish an hour's worth of work in just half an hour. I don't know where CBs train these days at 11x, but back in my day, I trained at Gobies (Band of Thieves them, and Assaulter the Fishies) lol. I'm sure there's better now - maybe someone will post something here. Just think that once you hit 120 and advance, you'll get the AWESOME skill called Boomerang Step! Not to mention an awesome bossing skill! Also, how cool is it to put 1 SP into Shadow Shifter, and have 10% of all attacks automatically miss you without doing anything at all? And really, your shadower career will just take off from 120. Just keep that in mind! ;D

This is why I don't scroll my own gear (especially with dark scrolls...)
