Before you max out AR, training there is extremely easy because all you do is sit at that spot and spam arrow rain. Just make sure you're facing left and are pinned to the wall. Typhons should naturally fly into your mob faster than you can kill them. Only when you start killing them decently fast, like about when you're close to maxing out rain, should you need to lure. Once you get to that point though, wind archers are unfortunately somewhat worse than the 3rd job archers due to lack of inferno or blizzard, which applies to crimson guardians as well toward the end of the 3rd job. They drop sacks of mesos, so money isn't really that much of an issue.
OK, you guys are just too pro. I've made 3 attempts to train at typhons and died within minutes each time. They touch damage at about 590 (not 400 like someone said), so I have to pot after every 2 hits, or roughly every 4 seconds or so. First slip-up or bit of lag and down comes the tombstone. Not sure I would want to train somewhere that requires 900 pots per hour anyway. Can anyone suggest somewhere almost as good exp but not quite so extreme conditions? Or should I just keep knocking windraiders around?
Level 80, arrow rain maxed, no zhelm.
