There's no way a simple calculation can determine how much slower training with ultimates is, since it highly depends on damage and map and one major factor in why ultimate training is so much faster than other methods is because the maps in Leafre are pretty bad in terms of layout for a mobbing class and that the monsters only have 80/85k HP, which means they die way too fast to train with any sustained mobbing methods like 3rd jobbers use at Himes and Typhons.
[color="#cc8899"]So Time Temple's high HP mobs may be more beneficial - kinda suspected that, but good to have backup on that. So for a monster like Zakum, a PA DrK could theoretically kill the bottom 4 arms (can hit all at once standing under the left 2) faster than an ult'ing AM/Bish could kill all of them, although the AM/Bish would still win out. Kinda sad that the DPS doesn't really matter though, as there are no maps well-suited for high mobbing potential (disregarding CGs, as their constant sealing + weird unpassable barriers limit mobbing effectiveness). I really would like to see some good Hime-style maps in the future...
And ty Fiel. Still not something I would personally be doing in a boss fight, mostly because of the random aspect of it - rather be able to stop attacking when necessary to buff, move, etc, especially when you are getting KB'd frequently.[/COLOR]
