I used my 30 minute recycled ticket at White Mama Monkeys on my level 34, 30% Assassin. Lo and behold, 30 minutes of hardcore grinding later (on 1x) I was level 36 and 20%. This is nowhere near the ABSOLUTE RIDICULOUSLY GODLY 999% PER HOUR that I've been reading in guides. On 2x, I probably would have made it to almost 38. In half an hour. I fail to see how doing this for 4 hours on 2x could get you from 35-50. Realistically, you might make it to 45. Or am I just doing it wrong?

Well think how it this way as u keep leveling u gain critical throw and haste max which makes training easier. At lv34 u might not 1hko them but at 40 u might so this speeds things up and u again double the exp as before because your double as fast

You're a sin. Most people who got from 35-50 in 4 hours of 2x were F/P mages.

But they don't have a mob move either... other than the attack range, where I have to back away more, I don't see the difference?

Those who did 35-50 in 4 hours were doing 4x. I did 42-50 in 2 hours of 2x and 1:30 of 4x. So 35-50 in 4 hours sounds totally possible.

Sins can't mob. I've gone from 35-40 70% in half an hour cause all their atks are mobbing.

[/quote] you did your math wrong you got approx 200% in half an hour on 2x = 400% half hour 1hour = ~800% 4hours x 800% = 3200% thats 30 levels, statically, but then your exp cap is raised every time you level.

You collect 10 pieces from monsters after starting Mr. Yoo's quest. Anyways, as a sin, is 4 hours of 2x at white mama monkeys enough to get me from 38-50? If that doesn't do it, I'll just restart.

YOU NEED MOB!In 1:50~1:55(estimating cuz I used recycled ticket, then right after opened up CS ticket but left with somewhere between 10-5 minutes early cuz computer clock is messed up and wanted to make sure I got in all 3 times you can on CS ticket) on 2x, I went from lvl50-54 on WMMs on my slinger. Thats cuz I have max invisible shot and mastery so I can OHKO them in mobs of 3 ;) Combine that with wings+recoil shot, 1-minute booster, and speed/jump equips/medal(Yay for "Honorable Explorer" medal) and I can get around and clear the entire map and put up another booster before the monkeys spawn again. So basically, you need a mob skill.
