    a lot of training spots but not really adapted for this server i must say.

    from lvl 10- 17: do the beginner bowman quests (mostely slimes)
    17-20: pigs/ ribbon pigs
    20-25: boars if you need maple weps
    20-30: ant tunnel
    30-38: teddys in ludi
    38-42: chronos/ platoon chronos
    43-75: plateons in omega sector; they only give 990 exp for a kill, but you get 1k exp for each tentacle you collect if you do the spindle quests + 5mil for each quest (must have 500 to complete though). This gives you 1990 exp for each kill, it's not that good as short ranged classes at FoG but its good (you kill them in 2 hits).
    if you like it rough you can go to ghost ship 2 at at lvl 43, but you wont make a lot of money
    also, once you have a lvl 60/64 bow you can go at voodoo/hoodoo in haunted mansion

    High 20's-low 30's - the Rocky and Wood Masks at Excavation Site III drop lots of Rydens and Green Marker Gloves, which is useful. I found a nice 3 DEX 50 ATT Ryden there. I'm at 35 now and kill most of them with one double arrow shot and arrow bombing the mobs is fun.

    I've been at Platoon Chronos since Lv34... it's amazing. Made like 35m by finding one great Esther shield and 2 glove scrolls... and the exp is fast if you know how to properly mob them up. Drains pots though, but its worth it.

    I reckon this guide has got many flaws, sadly.
    How could you not even mention Carnival PQ when it's probably the fastest way to hit 50 from 30?

    Most descriptions about the different grinding- and hunting spots sound more like your opinions rather than facts.

    Either way, your guide is appreciated and anything that could help someone is grateful!

    EDIT: Just noticed that the guide is VERY outdated (an update from time to time can go many places!)

    It's sad that most people don't know the classic hunter spot= monkey forest 2. It's INSANE exp, especially if you have a 2nd hunter at the bottom / top of the map. All you do is shoot bomb and you don't even have to move + you don't get attacked. Insane map, made for hunters. Rest of the maps level 34-46 suck really unless you are well geared i guess. I have tried half these maps level 10-45 and no can do.. chronos + master chronos are also the worst places for hunters.
