Nah Voodoos and Hoodoos is a ranged map. Amazing for sins, bowman, sairs. I wouldn't buff the amount of spawn there, if you are going to buff that map, it would have to be exp or spawn time.
You don't have to train at Ghost Ship 2 because of it being "beast", there are underpowered alternatives if you must. And a chair event was held a few months ago, where you could get both tradeable and undertradeable chairs, no need for it. If anything, add some to minor bosses (e.g 1 out of 100 chance to get X chair).
Teddies are amazing for any class that uses AoE attacks, specifically i/l mages lvl 30-40. There's so many that it's hard to keep up.
And whatever happened to people training at Florina beach? Especially i/l mages. Lower leveled, but still was good.
I agree with buffing alternative training spots (even though it's attempted already). Your idea of untradeable drops intrigues me. This would definitely drive some players around. Might I also say, increasing spawn in maps with platforms for sniping such as within the ludi maps (buffy, soul teddies) Some suggestions for untradeable drops from me are String-o-Whip Balrog weapons the 58 ones dividing each one in different areas Flaming Katana Bamboo Sword/Spear Black Hole (doesn't seem to be craftable atm) Raven weapons Akha, Akhasuma Also, most of the equips I listed AREN'T untradeable. But you can make them this way. Some of the series of weapons like raven and the akha could be upgraded by an npc from monster etc and ores as well. The raven,akha,blackhole should be part of the nlc/crimsonwood keep forging. But doesn't seem to be enlisted, so I included them. This is just as part of the suggestion!
Flaming Katana and Bamboo Spear are already available from Gachapon and Bamboo Sword can be obtained from Shinta, the Showa weapon seller.
Yea they were buffed once in the past, but not quite enough. Windraiders currently fall under the same category as truckers and MP3, a fair place to train, but doesn't compare with maps even that are lower level than it such as GS and even FOG.
After going there last night, I have to disagree. I trained at both places last night, the same level- level 78 to 80. Windraiders spawn was MUCH more efficient than gs2. I went to gs2 and with a priest, even one hitting the slimys, I was only getting 40% for every hour. At windraiders in lower ascent I'm getting a little over 20% per 15 minutes- that equals to about 80% - that's double GS2. And that's solo, and me being dumb and falling off the map and having to re-do the JQ a few times. As well as having to go and recharge since I still dont have enough stars. I'll get screenshots later today when I log back in and train there again.
Being a priest it's not worth for me to try Windraiders. As long as GS2 is not nerfed i dont mind them buffing alternative training spot
I train at Windraiders from time to time on my beginner, and I find the spawn rate pretty low, even for myself. I can see where this wouldn't be as big of a problem for more mobile/ranged classes and characters (Quest-Report-Girl).
