Sup basil, So I was on 4x this evening and tried both training at jesters and sniping newties (from lvl 80-82 so far since I'm still on 4x) and I think that twisted jesters are better. My various reasons for thinking so are: Jr. newtie takes 12+ (with octopus) last time I checked, while jesters take 6. However newts will sometimes take quite a while to respawn whilst it doesn't matter how much I shoot I hardly ever get to shoot without a monster in front of me. Could there be something wrong or is sniping better off until I have a certain skill at some level? Thanks in advance.

The jr. newt spawning is also really annoying if you try and kill the 2nd one from the sniping spot. i'm gonna go try jesters out..

At newties, you can snipe two newties without getting hit by placing a mule somewhere else in the map. I have heard the TJ's hp:exp ratio is terrible. They weren't out when I was an outlaw, but I'm quite certain that Windraiders would be a better choice.
