The sidekick should have it... if it was made on a 50% 2h scroll mule account that's been laying dormant since that lovely event.

Back when pink scrolls were being given out to new accounts making an Aran, lots of people made several throwaway accounts. If they haven't been using them for various attendance quests since then, those accounts all qualify for a Welcome Back Ring. Do not claim it on the Aran. Make whatever char you need (HS mule? HB mule? New main? DW to leech further chars with?), claim the ring on that, and sidekick-leech.

would be a good idea actually, get a DW, get ring, massive leech to 100~110, and then time to do it on everyone.

the extra 1.6k hp was so useful too

i've been taking bottom platform on a cleric starting at lvl 43, up to 65 now in just over an hour. it's kind of weird how the sidekick buff doesn't mention accuracy at all, but it allows you to hit the mobs... not that i'm complaining.

^It seems to be best until about level 65, from then on it slows down quite quickly, it'd probably be better to train from about 75 or so onwards. Depends how fast you can kill I guess.

With hs I get the same exp leeching as killing, but a lv 11x kills twice as fast so its better to split the map until you can effectively solo

Does anyone have a suggestion on which class is best to make into a Senior Sidekick. I may use this system to get my Link Skills up and going when they are released. I'd guess one of the CK, but haven't kept track of them for awhile or maybe some other class with great 2nd and early-3rd job mobbing. Without SD early anymore I'm not so sure about a DW from scratch (using another DW to Sidekick it), especially since I don't plan on getting this character to 120, just to some level that it can Sidekick a character later.

i'd say an archer or DW CK.

I wonder how much more EXP you would get if the "Superior" had a 100% OHKO rate and actually used a map route?

I had really good results with a blaze wizard. Tele-cast makes things go really fast, and meteor helps a bit also.

I don't know what the exact exp formula is, but my BW leeches 50k exp/min at Grims at level 65 - 57 second timed 1 cycle of the map, so it should be pretty steady - my DW 1hkos the Grims 96%, since they're 4 levels higher and 2+ misses = no 1hko. I think at half the level it'd be getting about half that exp per kill, which is still over a level a minute.
Only tricky part is needing to door the mules down to Grims. I'll probably leech a Cleric up at Robos, Soul Teddies, etc. until it has enough HP+MP to get down to Grims, then use it for door business. Ring mule Priest = hax sidekicking.

wind walk + arrow rain + hawk eye + concentrate
+40att and +60% damage for a skill that hits 10 monsters at 148%x3, and lets not forget the doublejump + 160% speed/123% jump
I leveled one of my friends from 40-65, and another from 40-60, and another from 15-40, all in a span of about... lets see, its 2 am right now, so it took about... I started at around 9 or 10 pm I think?
so four or five hours to get people a total of 15+20+35=70 levels?
