I levelled my Nibleheim fully at Skeles and didn't get much out of it in total, just 3STR and 1ATT which is a lot less than what could have been. Someone mentioned that the Reverse weapons level better when used on bosses/higher level monsters, is there any merit to this claim or any evidence backing it up or is it just as random as scrolling?

Most likely random, but in my experience my first 2 lvls on sword was +str only. Then for the last level I went to dojo, leveled it and got 2 ATT. Then again could be random.

Random. It's like the REALLY old myth of Bob the Snail. You either strike luckiness or get pwned in the face.

[/quote] That is wrong because my reverse gained 2 dex 2str at level two.

A really long time ago, there used to be a lonely snail in Drake's Meal Table. It was said that once this snail was killed, any 60% scroll would work, as long as you used it right away. We called this snail "Bob the Snail". Like 2 years later, Nexon decided to use our nickname for this snail, and turned the snail in Drake's Meal Table into a super-snail snail, as a part of a new quest.
