    Idk about everyone else, but all those numbers look boring and uninteresting and I'm a huge fan of statistics when it comes to Maplestory. Keep it short and sweet and to the point and they will pay dividends.

    Do you think 35 samples justifies 5 decimals of precision? What do you think are the chances that if you took another 35 samples, you would get the same 5 decimals?

    On the other hand I am reasonably confident you might get the same result to the 0 or 1 decimal place. That is why you use 1 decimal place.

    You might have a stats/engineering background (which happens to be my profession) but you are misusing it. We are not building a spaceship here. Presentation in data analysis is half the work and you are completely ignoring it.

    ok :X

    *Sorry it was a sample size of 30. "Reasonably confident" means nothing to me. How confident are you? 75%? 85%? 95%? 99%? It has nothing to do with you getting the exact same decimals to 5 places if you sampled another 20 hours. You going "ehh im pretty sure youll probably be accurate to like 1 decimal place, lets like cut it off around there", seems pretty legit to me. Anyways, the reason for me posting my logs honestly wasn't for you. It was to give me another reason to keep my logs in addition to the weird nerdy enjoyment I get from doing math/statistic work and I figured the numbers might interest Plenty because he spent a pretty solid amount of time there. I record numbers in excel, type in an equation, and copy and paste the results here. I already gave a meso/hour for you, if spoon feeding good meso/hour locations involves me chopping off the ends of averaged numbers that were only posted because a select few would even care to see them, then oh well. Just saying. Ill gladly give you an edited version at the end that gives you a chopped rounded version, but I still see no use for it.

    Bone Helm quests - it takes a lot of effort to do it, but turns out ppl are still buying those. I sold 2 helms, one for 70m and one for 50m :)

    On Topic: I don't know the levels or numbers or anything, but Skeleton Soldiers are a nice place for 4Xs. They drop GFA, CFA, Wand and staff m.atk 60%s as well a couple maple equips. Worth a test.

    To be completely honest, when I first saw this thread, I thought it was a "community money making" for everyone to collect our money together, like Liberals. But I guess we're all just right wing Conservatives.

    Does anyone have any more up to date information? I've currently been grinding at Master Chronos for Helm DEX 60%, and it is decent. I'm wondering as I get higher leveled what may be become a better source of mesos, though. How does doing Zakum runs, Horntail runs, etc. do for mesos? Are there any other particularly good grinding places? It feels like there is barely any variety on where to grind for money. Will there really be nothing much better than the Helm DEX 60% farming I'm already able to do? APQ farming? Other?

    As I level, I'm definitely going to be trying out different places myself, and I'll report my findings. I'm just surprised that more people haven't done so already.

    So I was looking through the library and trying to theory craft places to farm money. I ended up at Klocks/Dark Klocks in Ludi and I was pleasantly surprised.

    Level: 15x
    Class: Bishop
    Map/Mob: Klock/Dark Klock @ Ludi Path of time 2
    Mesos/Hour:
    85m p/h
    Detailed Explanation (Optional):

    2x overall int 60% @ 20m Eac - 40m
    4x 10% earing int @5m Each - 20m
    25m in pure equips (the npc of each equips is kinda low on average, but the volume of drops I was getting was insane. In one hour I had 2 1/2 full inventory worth of gear dropped.

    Maybe 2-4m more in extra junk+droped mesos but I left that out of the p/h to get a more reserved estimate.

    A huge benifit of this location is that they are only lv 7x mobs, there is basically no requirement to be able to farm here or one shot them with gene.

    Prices based on @Plenty scroll price guide.

    Sounds really interesting. Hard to believe the volume of scrolls being dropped, but definitely worth investing myself. Hopefully you can invest some more hours in that map so you can get a solid average.

    Didnt track yet, im always to distraced or dont do full hours. But Ulu 1 Oneshot brings imense Mesos compared to other Ulu maps (even if you dont get godly Craven or Sparta). Maybe Plenty wants to try that once. I also managed to lvl there faster than in Ulu 2 in early A/M lvls (both 1hit) if you dont run for the loots or single mobs and try always to hit max amount of Mobs. The exp is very good.

    In terms of money, Ulu Estate I is better, but Ulu Estate II is better in terms of XP.

    Wouldnt be to sure with EXP tbh. There are 3 Spots you always hit 15 Mobs if you rotate between these 3 respawn is fast enough. Thats on my Cleric atm around 40k exp per Blizzard. Personally never managed to reach that on Ulu 2.
    Never tracked it down but if i go for tryhard EXP on Ulu 1 it realy feels faster than Ulu 2.

    Just noticed that you said 8 dex warrior pants for 8m (Skeles) and I know they are worth more now. Recently sold a 9 dex for 25m.
    Various other drops seem to be a bit outdated too ~f4

    Hard to maintain those prices and manage a bunch of other stuff so I'm going to leave out those specific items and put down the item in question.
