I got to level 78 early this morning. (And if you think that 75 to 78 in 12 days is too fast, my ice mage friend went from 77 to almost 83 in the same amount of time. And he’s legit. [Ugh.]) Got to equip my dark enigma (verified smexy by my bl) and my phoenix wand (it’s small but powerful – +6int and 109matk). I also sprung for an extra row of slots in my equipment because it’s really not fair that mages don’t get more room. Blah. D: Now I don’t know what to do (aside from go to Hen and annoy people).
While level 77 I wandered in Aqua road and ended up killing sharks at the shipwreck. No, really. It’s painful and careful and slow, though, so I didn’t stay very long. But it was quite nice in the fact that I was hardly disturbed there at all by other players. If I ever make it to 90 or so it might be nice for training.
The whole “being disturbed there by other players” part is why I’m having trouble training. I have 16 points (and 3 still unused from lvling) in poison mist. And I know it’ll be great eventually, but I’m still not convinced it was worth my while to put my points into it. Misting bone fish is still vastly slower than, say, killing zombies. It’s discouraging.
I’ve been told to go to death teddies, but they’re also discouraging. I cannot train at DTs because (1) I hate the map layouts in ludi and (2) I can’t mist anything without some ice mage or sin coming after me and killing what I just misted. I hate the slow killing style. Well, correction. I have the patience to poison something and go poison something else and then come back and kill it. It works GREAT for lycans (and impresses lvl 50s climbing up to zombies, too). The only way I can “train” at DTs is with an ice mage, and that’s discouraging.
My current 3rd job skillset is as follows:
[3 unused points]
+1 explosion
+1 composition (I really wish I’d put points into this instead of mist)
+3 elemental amplification
+1 seal
+16 poison mist
(I wish I could find a legit high level fire mage to consult on things like this.)
So what do I do now?
Oh my you chose the poison mage build? Wow you’re either very ambitious or incredibly stupid.
Going myst first disables all possibilities you have of training of a normal speed for your level until 100, but the plus point is you will level like you never had before. However by then you will be broke.
You should know that every level the attack spell’s level should be level 1,4,7,10,etc. This reason is because every 3 levels starting from 1, the range and mastery increases.
I’d say DTs are really good, just post on basil asking for a training partner, or get a friend that you can trust with drops.
