Myself (Level 168 Hero) and Weezing (Level 189 Fire Poison Arch Mage) did some %/Hour testing and found some interesting results. We tested 4 different places (each with higher leveled enemies) and noticed that our %/Hour went down as we went to higher level mobs. I could 2-hit all of the mobs we went to and Weezing could 1-hit all of them. Note: We also had an HS mule that did not leech off any of the mobs. I should also say we did 10 minute tests, and multiplied our % gained by 6, in order to get %/Hour. Petrifighters Monster Level: 110 HP/Monster: 80,000 Exp/Monster (w/ HS): 21840 My %/Hour: 25.2 Weezing's %/Hour: 12.6 Note: I took bottom platform, Weezing took the rest Skeles Monster Level: 110/113 HP/Monster: 80,000/85,000 Exp/Monster (w/ HS): 21600/22800 My %/Hour: 19.6 Weezing's %/Hour: 10.2 Note: I took top platform, Weezing took the rest Duku (Map past Petrifighters) Monster Level: 115 HP/Monster: 90,000 Exp/Monster (w/ HS): 24000 My %/Hour: 18 Weezing's %/Hour: 9 Note: I took top platform, Weezing took the rest Road of Regrets 4 (Qualm Guardians and Chief Qualm Guardians) Monster Level: 113/116 HP/Monster: 90,000/99,000 Exp/Monster (w/ HS): 21600/23808 My %/Hour: 15.8 Weezing's %/Hour: 7.2 Note: I took bottom platform, Weezing took the rest I think that areas closer to "end-game" should give better exp. The Exp/Mob is fine, but I think that the spawn on the Duku map and ToT maps especially need to be increased. Duku is the map after Petrifighters and is the end area of Ulu City (apart from Krexel) and even with Weezing 1 hitting them w/ his pro Meteor 30 it still didn't stand up to Petrifighters. Road of Regrets should be endgame for FP Mages, but the spawn just doesn't cut it (this is the cast for most of ToT as well).
This is some great information, you guys! I'm not surprised that Petrifighters dominate the grind locations due to the spawn and lack of climbing. At 158, my Hero got around 21% an hour at Skeles by just leeching and not attacking. If only I could triple client, I'd make myself a I/L and get to One Shot Petrifighter level. I'm surprised that Dukus were pretty far behind of Skeles. I thought the margins would be closer if not better than Skeles seeing as the spawn is pretty dense.
