Where are/did you train your Cygnus?

stormbreakers pure spawn. im there now at 81. 50%+/hr on 1.1-1.3x. pot heavy, but really fast. its worth the walk, and if you have a door well pineapple you, i dont! in windia i get a person walk in every hour or so, hit f6 at 5-8 x 4 x 1.5ks, say "whoa", and leave.

goby map is still too strong for me (damn bone fish). dgp is slow as hell compared to stormbreakers. sticking out roids this long is silly, you could be 100+ by now

Just wondering, what are your equips? I've been at stormbreakers since i got 8 hit driver (from your suggestion) and i've been getting 66%/h. I'm 85 now, ready for gobies.

I had a regular Zhelm, 10 Dex Earrings, +1 All Broken Glasses, and a 90 att Kandiva.

Typhons are too strong even with that BUT once you have a level 9 Arrow Rain, it's just a matter of your conviction to burn pots for insane exp rate until you max out Wind Piercing, in which case Newties will be better (if you also want to burn pots via taking the whole map instead of sniping).

Typhons get easier by 85 or so and definitely easy at 90. Their touch damage is less than that of Windraiders but it adds up as there are six or more trying to kill you every two seconds and you'll notice your hp pots which would be the barbarian elixir would go down 3x as fast as your mp pots which should be sorcerer elixirs.

Don't forget your attack boost from your main. I met a girl who was playing a wind archer who was asking me where to train, and when I told her the places I was at at her level she couldn't handle them. Turns out she had created the Cygnus with a level 20 character, so her blessing was only level 2 while mine was level 14. That's a pretty huge difference in power and killing speed, especially when you consider she wasn't using warrior elixirs while I was. The level of your other characters is going to directly influence the speed of your cygnus.

Anyone not do PQ's between lv 30-50?

Oh, the Fairy Blessing completely slipped off my mind. It's still doable as the parent of my Cygnus was only level 52 when I created my Cygnus. I don't think a difference in 3 WA would do much at the 7x range while a 12 WA difference like you had would be the same as comparing a clean Kandiva to a clean Arund.

Cold Eyes. I loved it.

What builds did you guys use for your 2nd job Wind Archers? I'm still looking for a good one.

There really aren't many options on building a 2nd job Wind Archer.

The highest priority as follows:
1st point on Storm Break, 19 Mastery, 3/6 Booster, Max Storm Break, 2 Soul Arrow (Can go before Storm Break but SB doesn't use up arrows so it's not as useful), Max Thrust, Max Booster, Max Soul Arrow, Last Point on Mastery, Remaining points on Storm -OR- Focus, and 1 point on Final Attack for show.

If you need a neat guide, you can check out my build and several others on the "Any Good Windbeaker Builds?" under the Bowman subforum.

1-36: Quests

I'm a thunder breaker. Current level: 36.

Dawn Warrior

1 - 20 = Cygnus + random nautilus quests
20 - 30 = Ariant quests + Sand Rats
30 ~ roughly 40 = Drum bunnies mini. dun. (event quest helped a lot)
40 ~ 47 = C-2/ roid mini dun. I did CPQ like 3 or 4 times on 40 and 46 to not get bored.

That's it. Haven't been able to play much, no pc + school = stuck at 47 for eternity. >_>

50 - 60 will probably stay at roids or the map with neo + roids. MP3 haves too many ks-ers, makes me paranoid every time I see a new red square on the map. xd

Dawn Warrior

Levels 31 to 55... I'm a little hazy remembering where the hell I trained, but I think it was what's below.

1 - 30ish = Cygnus Quests (Throw in a few levels here and there at boars in between the quests)
31 - 37 = Scorpions
37 - 47 = Roids
47 - 55 = Completely forgot...
56 - 70 = Windraiders (In CWK)
71 - 85 = Stormbreakers (In CWK)
86 - 105 = Himes
106 - 120 = Skele Mini Dungeon

Magatia is awesome.

I've got to lv 35 on my Thunder Breaker from mainly doing quests.

I'll have to try Cold Eye or Magatia for a change of scenery.

Dawn Warrior:
1-25:KoC Quests
26-30:Masks in perion
30-35:Cpq and C-3
36-45:C-3
46-55:roids
55-65:hoodoos/roids
Working on leveling now,

Blaze Wizard:
1-25:KoC Quests
25-30:Evil Eyes
31-35:Cold Eyes
Stopped at 35

I would also like to add the fact that i did use the polluted rocks quests and master m notes
so the training will be different from a person training with those quests off

Those two quests make grinding a hell of a lot easier and it should be mandatory. An extra 2-5% every 10-15 minutes is worth it. It'll be faster if you go to Cassandra until you get the 2x Drop and then go to Gaga afterwards.

Striker

15-20: Pig Mini Dungeon
20-30: Scorpions outside of Magatia ( Took 2.5 hours, 2 hours were 2xp )
31-34: CPQ
34-42: Iron Mutaes
42-44: CPQ
44-48: Roids
48-53: Truckers
53-60: MP3
60-61: Mu Lung Pirates

All in about 8 days. I plan on heading to C-2 for 61-65 since MP3 is impossible to find a channel. Once I hit 64/65 I'll head to Raiders.

Dawn Warrior

10-20: Quests + Watermelons
21-30: Ariant PQ
31-33: Sand Rats
34-43: Iron Mutaes
44-51: C-1
52-70: C-2
70-85: Gobies (sometimes chilling at kimera/homunculus)

Gobies at 70 were amazing.
