What do you guys think? (Farming)

EternalShadow · **Joined:** Oct 2007 **Posts:** 70 **Location:** Ecsro

Right now I'm farming my 72 str fire/light bow at Nachals. On both sides of the cave there are almost always 3+ bots in the last Nachal room, and atleast one of them (on each side) is a 1 hit ksing euro (wiz and bard, half the skills are faster than my bow skills so its very annoying). Right now I have enough sp to take my bow skills up to 71 so I'm thinking about going to 76-80 and farming then at mages. What do you guys think?

Do you know a good spawn for them? I tried looking for a good one when I was sick of the bots one day; but I found myself running all over just to find spawns.

yeah don't do mages
you will lose to the 80s

sniper and hunter is by far the best area to farm...good drops (could be your final set even)

only bad thing is lack of 8th deg elements

Since you are farming at nachals, why not just get help from a friend and make an 8 man party. When the room clears, you can resume your farming. Or if you are feeling evil, just keep the room full of pt mobs, until the bots delevel or run out of reverse scrolls (if they use those instead) :/

Alright, so, does anyone know where (roughly) a decent spawn for snipers/hunters are? Or should I just run around trying to find one? (Last time I did that, didn't get me very far.)

I've done that quite a few times... Even with a great party I get like 500 less sp/hour, and the bots always come back >.<

dont close your gap,
go to bone soldiers/niya guards and farm.
i have farmed more then 150k there at lvl72 with 9 gap
not many bots/ bone soldiers =aggressive / SICK spawn rate

Last time I was there, quite a few bots thb. I'm at snipers/hunters now close to the remains...quite a few bots but spawn is decent so... also I found third tier euro D8 earrings ^.^ I'll go check out soldiers/guards again though right now.

Trust me dude i feel your pain....(egychan, GodNuke, love, Tayaki....they all SUCKKKK)
if you're thinking about farming at takla, you basically have to do it at 80 cuz the snipers/hunters are full at all times of the day....(ive been up ther too....)

but in the remains spawn rate is good and bots are less, since the sun bots kil hunters.
so either switch to yachas (like i do a lot of the time) or close up, and find other spots to farm

Bahhh... I hate those exact same bots =_=... The worst one though (on left side of caves) is some damn ksing bard bot... 1 hitting with skills faster than mind bow and ksing? :banghead:

But yea, thanks for the info. Soldiers were alright when I went there about an hour ago but they're slightly stronger than Nachals so it takes me a little longer to kill them. Idk, I'm thinking about getting my skills to either 65, 69, or 71 and then farming.

Probably best off on bone soldiers/niya guards since it's not too hard to find a good grind spot. Seeing as how you play on Greece as well I can tell you that the area inside the remains are full of sosun bots to the point where I pretty much change my grind spot on a daily basis and it's kind of the same for hunters/snipers.

I vote bone soldiers also.

Snipers/Hunters, on Athens atleast, are literally infested with bots. It's really hard to play there with the gold bots / plvl bots / lvling bots..

Mages are no different really... Generals i don't think are all that bad. There are bots, but gererals just dont seem to be affected as much as other mobs generally. (From my experience).

If nachals are free, go to them... If not, kill soldiers by mobbing them. So use some luring skills like mind bow or normal arrows... group 5-10 depending on your gear, and mob the crap outta' them

.

Soldiers have really nice spawns imo..
- North East of the northern side of the river.
- A lil' south of the oasis (often has bots there , but nice spawns if its free)

If you do end up going to snipers/hunters... Far north west corner of there spawns has a nice spawn. This is often over flooded with bots but...

Use the Sp and lvl to 80 and then dlvl your masteries to 71 and grind at Mages and Royals.

Same here.

Dont Farm on

Sniper/Hunters.

but your str so mages will do good dmg to you not much but more than an int

but skills at 71 you can kill royal in 2-3 shots and mages 2.

im farming at mages now and theres a few bots but no like in sniper and hunters.

i have my masteries at 70 cuz im 79 and i can kill royals and mages easy
plus i get more sp than been 80 =). i get 1.5 sp with mages and 2sp with royals.
using gt/sp tikets same time.

I'm currently soloing Mages when a party isn't avaliable and their usually pretty well botted up in the open areas, but if you head into the spots with alot of ruined buildings/obstacles, bots usually avoid them. If their is a bot or two there, they'll usually get stuck often while the mobs keep spawning for you to pick off.

Wizards in the nachal room suck, I was well hated during my levels there
