Hi, i hit 131 recently and Ive been told to go to skele. I went there with a 2hit (sometimes 3) bishop and i took bottom. we were on 2x and i only got 10-15% from the whole 30mins. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Gallo is faster than that... Also, are there any alternate training places to skele because they hit a bit too much, i am not a tank. Thanks.

I am not a tank either. You are probably doing something wrong though, I get as much as you with splitting a Skeles map with a Bucc, no HS.

well, you didn't describe what you currently do so it's hard to say if you're doing in wrong. MY suggestion would be to mob them up a bit and bounce them when you can. use the mob to build up combo and fenrir them when you can. but I've never played an aran there, so IDK.

Well, speaking on behalf of my pally that's pretty darn good... But in terms of arans I don't think that % per hr is really good.

12x bish with mostly 2 hit KO is pretty dern good by my standards, especially considering I was 2HKOing gallos til about 130.

The sad truth is that if 20-30% on 2x bores you, then you might as well start a new character now. It only gets worse from here. I'd be thrilled to get 10% per hour anywhere, anytime. Although it's been promised, there are no good maps for high level characters other than Skeles, ToT, and Gallos. And with each level your advance, the EXP requirement climbs. So... start a new character to break up the monotony. I would suggest a Cleric, since an HS mule is always good to have around.

If you were a NL, I'd say that that was great EXP. Aran's are probably supposed to get a little bit more than that though.

Thats not good exp at all... The reason is that the mage will be taking all the kills on the map. Solo w/ the mini dungeon will get you more exp.

[/quote] No training w/ a Bishop is around 1.5x as fast as soloing. I found Skeles w/ a Bishop to be much greater Exp than solo at Gallos (or even w/ a Priest). Idk what you're doing wrong.
