For those with range characters:
I am a 195 Bowmaster in Mardia. I tested out the EXP at Obv4 yesterday. I got ~3.7mil exp aka 0.42% within 15 minutes (would've done a full 30 minutes but my partner and his HS mule got "banned for the hack reason" and were dc'd). After factoring it out that is ~14.8mil exp aka 1.68% in ONE HOUR.
Now I am aware that I am lvl 195 and that I do need a lot of exp to level even after the BB patch. But Nexon made such a big deal about how leveling was going to be easier after this update...they failed to mention it was only for people who are lower than 160 I guess.
I have resorted to soloing BGs A/B & Grandpa Boss for 2%, then duoing whatever toads I can find with a friend for another 2% per toad (1% per form). It just seems like it's a lost cause so I've decided to postpone leveling to 200 until we get Lionheart Castle. Even though the mobs are 11x-12x the fact that they have tons of HP will deter away any lower levels from training there which is nice, and will probably reinforce multi training partners in a party again (just like gobys and squids in the old days).
Nexon really didn't do any 160+ character a favor at all...if anything they basically told us to calm down and go make a new character (which I'll be doing once Battlemages are released
)
