Ah fiddlesticks, ring mules are gone. What will us grinders do >_>. I used to think training with a ring mule with 4x was slow and, but training without one is unbearably slow, it's just impossible. Guess I'm waiting till the BB patch to train >_>. HBU all? Wyrms: Wow your pretty spoiled, think about the people who got to your level without 2x, nlc pots, decent equips... And you have the new exp curve. Yeah. I think of the people that have achieved such a "feat" and I tell you now, Maplestory back then was incredibly boring back then without these exp benefits, which is why I quitted a long time ago, until now. Training was boring and tedious, and it took hours to gain a few percent. SURE, they may have reached these high levels without the benefits we have now, but at the expense of half their childhoods. Me? I'm not willing to make a sacrifice like that. I reached lvl 152 in about a month or two. They, on the other hand took YEARS. Therefore, it's not a matter of patience, but imo, what makes the game more fun.

I'm fine with my slow exp rate from grinding and I'm satisfied from the exp I get from bosses. xD

Yeah same here, gaining 0.01 or 0.02 at skeles is just horrible, just awful. Like you, I'm waiting for that exp curve... training without a ring mule is just soooo slow

You all just take ring mules for granted. =_=; i've never used a ring mule to train, or if i did, it was because my partner had a ring and was WAY higher, so i still go tless than if i solo'd.

I don't mind really. I find training unbearable just on 1x. IMO we've been spoiled with all these high exp rates that training w/o them is too boring and tedious

I've never used a ring mule. And I hated how everyone else had one and was training on like ring + HS + family + CS when I was like 1x all the time, and 30min of 2x from the DB event.

You think it's hard to train now ? Wow. Just a last year was harder than now because now there's a billion events and 2x stuff.

up till 150 I trained on party rep 2x's only,but I agree it will mean I have to stop chatting when I train to make reasonable xp.
