As a proud Bishop owner I find myself self leeching... a lot. I am curious of when/if grinding becomes more efficient then self leech in terms of xp/hr. This question does not take bossing into consideration but is more geared towards solo with an hs mule or non boss party grinding. The character this would be applied to is a Dark Knight for a reference point.
Depends, really. I'd say somewhere around the 140-150 mark, but that depends on your Bishop (1hit or 2hit) and your DrK's gear and clearing speed. Just test around a bit to find out.
Yeah that's what I was kinda figuring. I did some testing half expecting petri grind to be faster then my bish leech due to my bish being 2 hit skele and my drk being 2 hit on petri but the rate of kills isn't fast enough. Edit: this is at 136
Figure out your minimum damage and head over to any monster that you can one shot. You might even have to go back to previous Ulu City mobs.
Heh if my pathetic bishop even one shots ulu2... My drk has better gear and skill levels then my bishop despite being 30 levels behind I'm afraid. Gen10 lyfe ;p Or maybe you're talking about one shot on my drk? In which case I think I would one shot there I just don't think it would be faster then 2 shot skele leech.
