Does this spells the end of leechers?

If a mage payed someone 8m an hour to attend their boss run, I'm sure any attackin party wouldn't mind them sitting and doing nothing.

I think what he meant was that even if the attackers charge mages 8mil an hour to go bossing, the mages would still actually have to do everything to survive and pot while the leechers from magician class just pays that fee then hangs on a rope. Can't really compare those 2 at all, except at anego/big foot leech buying form an attacker which they do charge price for. Magicians do buy leech from these attackers.

Even if the mage pays the attackers to take them on boss runs, whats the gain for the mage here for paying? If this was done, the mage is considered a buyer and wouldn't get any splits anyway... it would only have been for exp which is much faster for them just training. The leechers that leech of mages do gain from it because they get levels from it faster.

There is faster way than leeching. Its attacking while leeching at same time. I think these leechers should attack at bottom newtie map while leeching, it makes the training a lot faster for them but they're just completely lazy its their fault. I think DrRusty has already made very good points about this. Partying someone who's best at training will get you fastest exp. Partying someone who kills bosses fast will get you faster kills. It will always be like that until they get rid of reasons to make certain jobs and balance everyone, if this happens there really wouldn't be many reasons for having so many different classes and the game would probably die out. I think thats what makes this game fun. The advantage of some classes lets you do something and advantages of another class lets you do something else.

Newtie maps are the main training ground for most high levels, mage or a non-mage. There is also skelegons but people perfer newties for other reasons such as the map setup, it requires lot less moving around and you don't get blasted for 3k+ damage. It will not be free even if leechers dissapear, if you want it to be free all the high levels should quit. This map is not just for 105-140 because the levels after that don't have anywhere else to go except skelegons so they will still remain in newties until level 200 if needed. If you got there first then its your map, but if they got there before you its theirs... you can't complain that you can't find a map because of leechers...its the best map for most people and they will all want to use it. Like you already said, this will be fixed with the dungeon idea if it ever comes here.
