I was wondering do bishop's train with BM's at skeles. Because usually bowmans train at newts for awhile and i was wondering if they train at skeles with a bishop. Does anybody know the % per hour at skeles?

I've trained with an AM, I don't see why a Bishop wouldn't want to. I get anywhere from 10~15% an hour training with an AM(1x). You are gonna need a pet with auto hp if you want to train there though.

[/quote] Im obssesed with training with bishops because then i dont need a HS mule because he/she becomes one.. also they kill 15 monsters per second o.o Good exp if ya ask me... OT: I think a bishop would rather train with a Drk or a DB Drk because of HB DB because thorns makes a lot of bishops hit max damage and or definately one hit ko skeles.. SE doesnt do much for bishops and since BM's are such single target killers (for the post part) they wont give the bishop that much exp..

[quote] StanBert : A lot of people have HS mules; Them killing more equates to less spawn for you. [/quote] & a lot of people don't. The bishop takes the top while i tear through the bottom and i usually level more when im with a bishop than with any other job so i don't see how the second part of what you said matters... :/ i love bishops

[/quote] I personally agree with this, it actually kind of annoys me when I see people spamming "L> BISHOP FOR 4 HOURZ!1!" when theres a plethora of other classes that are able and willing to train but get ignored simply because they don't have this little thing called Genesis. Of all the classes I have had the pleasure of training with, the best (in my opinion) was training with my DrK friend with an HS mule. Extrememly good and constant spawn + HB = fun fun fun. Now don't get me wrong, I enjoy training with a Bishop but its just not a priority for me.

Like it or not, Bishops excel at killing mobs. That's why we love training at Skeles and Gallos. The spawn on those maps maximizes the capabilities of Genesis. I don't believe that any other class can match the experience/minute of a Bishop on these maps. Add to that the experience boost from HS and you can see why, when it comes to gaining experience, Bishops are the best training partner at Skeles and Gallos. And please note that I said Bishops are the best training partner "when it comes to gaining experience" and not the best training partner. The best training partner I've ever had, regardless of what character I was playing, was a DK/DrK. We became friends online and supported each other in game. We might have been able to gain more experience training with a Bishop, but we wouldn't have had as much fun. And people... that's what this game is supposed to be about... having fun.

[quote] MadJester : so bishops kill gallos better than A/M? [/quote] Theoretically, yes. Practically, pretty much the same. Gen casts much faster than Blizz. However, both are faster than the Gallos spawn rate. If there were a contest, Bishops would probably win, but the margin of victory would be so small as to be irrelevant. The big difference between the two is not kill rate but HS. And P.S. I have a lvl 166 I/L AM as well as my Bishop.
