You could probably train there pretty easily, especially if you threw a point into Arrow Rain to take advantage of the vertical sniping spots. Just so you know where to stand so you won't get hit, here's a SS:

Only problem is that their KB is 3500, so you may need to use Arrow Blow if they get too close (they can hit you if they're REALLY close). Then again, they shoot most of the time, so they stand still, and you can always Bomb them to keep them still. =P

But yeah, you people that are nearing 3rd job *cough*Jay*cough* can come train with me once you don't MISS DTs anymore. =)

EDIT: Oh, I almost forgot, they CAN hit you on the right side's red blocks. It only works on the left side for some reason. =\

You take for granted how stable your damage is. First off, you have no minimum range so you can fire away even if that dt is right there on that ledge. I cannot do this. Also, I have tried DT's and it is a huge waste of pots. Also, it takes far too many hits for me to actually be worth my while. Sure, you may have that whole debate about how its not about hits but exp per hour but believe me, it is really slow. Maybe if I had better strafe, it would be fine but my strafe is **** as of now and ds is slow and not as stable. I think it took me 15 hits. 15 hits for 1300 exp=86.6 exp per hit. At hectors its 1.5 hits for 170 exp (sometimes 1 hit)=113.33 and plust hectors are pot saving which means money saving. Also, it takes far less time to get to a hector map and it has way better spawn. For zombies, it also takes about 1.5 hits to kill for 190 exp and really fast spawn=126.6 exp per hit. If/when I get better strafe (maybe at level 75?) I'll go to DT's. Otherwise, I'll pass. Thanks for the tips though eb =)
O_o
EDIT: Getting a point in arrow rain is not worth it at all. You must remember that I need 5 in mortal blow in order to unlock arrow rain as a skill, and that will just put me behind even further. I would prefer 6 points in strafe then 1 point in arrow rain =/

evilbutterfly · 05-25-2006, 08:59 PM

Aha, I forgot about the MB requirement. If you could put 2 Strafe/1 Rain in next level it'd help a ton. Even with craptastic mastery, fairly low damage, and it being slow as hell, level 1 explosion helped a ton at DTs. Also, I took TONS OF DAMAGE before I found these ledges where I can shoot from safety. Now I don't take much damage, really. Granted, archers can't teleport, but mages don't have bomb/incredible range. I outrange DTs just barely, you could easily hit from afar and not have to worry about damage. If you'd be okay with it, I could try killing DTs with your ranger (since I'm used to fighting them) sometime if you refuse to. XD

Oh, and as for exp per hit, DTs are 1300 for 8-9 hits for me. That's 144.4 or 162.5 exp per hit, which is better than my occasional (about 15% of the time, maybe?) 1hk's on Grupins. Also, I'm shooting semi-constantly there whereas with any other place I move around a lot and don't shoot much.

Also, I'm fairly sure you outdamage me, even on fire-weak stuff. I was able to go to DTs some at 71 and thought it was probably slow because they took so many hits (and cuz I missed), but it was prolly fast even then.

Afrobean · 05-25-2006, 09:32 PM

IF YOU'RE NOT IN THE MOOD FOR A RANT, SKIP TO END OF POST.

I couldn't find a DK, so I solo'd a bit.

Then, I went back to town to look for a DK. Found a few but all were idle. I find it odd that none of the DKs on my list are ever actively playing, especially the ones who recently posted threads at SW asking for priests, or those who posted in my recent thread asking for DK.

Then, this DK who made a thread at SW asking for priests with HS made a post essentially saying he'd be fine with partying with me. However, I have yet to ever see him online.

Then I saw a newb coming down through soul teddies. He got misses on every time. By the time I realized this, he was going forward as fast as he could... I couldn't catch him. Then we get to DT, and of course, there was a DT right on the portal. Now, I can obviously take a bump hit from DT (even in my int gear, which is what I was wearing), but at that point, I was one hit from dying from a bump. I healed to get to full and immediately tried to quit the game so I could get away. Fail. I get owned by a flying charm. I got the name of the hacker (or really, script kiddie) in the end, though. Was it worth it? Yeah, IF I COULD PARTY WITH A DAMN DK EVER. Seriously, 5% solo takes way too long, but DK partying 5% is a joke. So yeah I quit for tonight, even though Noah is quite ahead of me in percents.

I probably won't be playing again unless I can party. Solo is not only way slower, but ****ing annoying. Sometimes, I'll kill a few times on a map, and someone else will come up and say something along the lines of "cc." I oblige, because I don't want to share a map either. Anyway, I'll eventually settle down on a map with just me when the same person who told me comes in. Really annoying because you'd think they'd notice you and think "hmm I was a jerk to this guy earlier and told him to leave, so I'll just be nice and leave for him" but a lot of the time they stay for a while and kill.

You know, it's funny... I only make rants like this when I die for some bogus stupid bull**** reason.

_______________________________________

Main points of the post are:
#1: died for stupid reason.
#2: DKs are always either not online or idle; I can never find one to party with despite having a list of them.
#3: I won't be leveling again until I can actually party with a DK, because solo sucks really bad (exp is comperable to other classes, I suppose, but money sucks ass and why settle for less exp when I could have more).

ckj846 · 05-25-2006, 10:17 PM

I dont' mind if you play on my ranger eb, but just be a lot more careful with hp because I can only take 1 hit before I die, even touch. I believe touch damage does somewhere around 1050 and the projectile does a lot more O_O. I really just need to grind to 75, but I'll just wait it off until summer. My kitty will die by then so I guess I"ll do some more treasuretropper surveys and crap until I have enough =/
O_o

Bahamut-X · 05-25-2006, 10:37 PM

Found icys during 2x drop. Apparently they're hardly worth anything since I got laughed at when I asked for 600k for them.

Was hoping I could make some good money =/ How much are they really worth?

IAAW · 05-25-2006, 10:46 PM

According to BM, for the server Bera, Icicles are worth 250K-600K.

gonzo4life44 · 05-25-2006, 10:51 PM

hey bahamut ill buy them from you when i start playing again.

dRaGoNiaZ · 05-25-2006, 11:36 PM

Just hit 47.. finnally. PQ is hard on the mesos when you don't ever get anything good from it. Any tips on where to level instead of PQ?

47 Assassin

ckj846 · 05-25-2006, 11:58 PM

Lusters man.... Lusters are by far, the best exp until you can effectively 2 hit kill hectors/zombies. And that is around level 6x. I trained at lusters, Cloud Park 6 from 47-7x. Well, internet has been a bitch and I had this giant research project for chemistry so I kinda got screwed there =/ Probably won't be able to play this weekend or all next week because finals are coming up.
O_o

evilbutterfly · 05-26-2006, 12:10 AM

Chris, I suggest you do one of 2 things. 1) Party with me or 2) Play Allanae until I can party you with her. I finally found an impaler for her, so she's set for the next....lots of levels. xD

EDIT: Oh yeah, turned in my scroll of secrets from the event today. I got a cromi. -____-

Pat found an ilbi tonight. First one in 15 levels; 4th overall.

Watch this: http://media.163888.net/virtualdir2/...9003357840.wmv

Level 163 hermit using a speed attack hack... rofl... Oh, and his FJ doesn't look maxed... o_O

vashthestampede0987 · 05-26-2006, 10:02 AM

Damnit jason, you show me that video and now I want to watch bleach.

**Chromer** · 05-26-2006, 10:25 AM

Still level 48 and I missed an event? GD parents and their damn rules. -_-

Well, I'll take that Cromi off your hands EB, unless Chris gives me that +4......

Tonberry_Kid · 05-26-2006, 10:38 AM

So I'm 29 with 45% to go...And I'm 40k in the hole right now from pots...I hate how I never get items and am always poor.

Speed attack hack? I dunno. From the looks of it, this guy was using a mixture of warrior pills, haste, copycat, avenger, and flash jump.

evilbutterfly · 05-26-2006, 11:27 AM

Dude, LOOK AT HOW FAST HE IS FREAKING ATTACKING. You cannot throw 20 stars in a second, and you certainly can't cast avenger that fast. Also, I didn't realize you could outrun your own stars with FJ. XD

Chromer, you can have the cromi, I don't care.

**Chromer** · 05-26-2006, 11:29 AM

Oh snap! =O

banditcom · 05-26-2006, 11:50 AM

I can finally 1hko zombies 100% of the time, using ilbi and shadow partner. w00t w00t! Not like it matters.
