Best non-mage training class

I recently got bored of my crossbowman and I decided to switch characters. I was wondering if people could suggest any fun classes that are relatively fast at training

 

Hero/dk

 

Train a bandit! Probably the 2nd (or maybe even) fastest third job in term of leveling.

 

How good/bad are shadowers are at training?

 

they're very good at training, but you'll be literally blowing up mesos

 

Lv70 to lv90 within an hour+ if you're good. ME training is wicked fast. Slows down a little after that, so f/p might be better at those level, hence CB is 2nd fastest IMO.

 

Seconding bandit. It's so much fun.

 

Curious, where did you ME train? I've always gone with other skills first, but if ME grinding is faster, then I will do that with my new character.

 

Party up with a priest within your level (1 to 5), train at dreamy ghosts. Or you ME on Headless Horsemen, depending on availability. Once you have maxed ME, you can try ME on Bigfoot, also depending on availability.

 

@MoriForest does bandits need hp washing? is it recommended?

 

I guess it helps, but I never HP washed on EMS. With me so guard you get 50% damage reduction I think.

 

Not as much as NL counterpart, but washing makes your life easier. Use this guide to see whether you need to wash or not!
