Well, I've hit the gold mine. The only thing that would be helpful would be 5-6 hit sharks. Seriously, this place is amazingggg. I've made about 6M today just for training for about 2 hours here from Meso Drops and NPCing crappy equips, which drop extremely often. Also, this is one of THE best White Powder hunting places. It's a flat map. I've gotten 11 white powders, and 4 brown powders in the 2 hours that I trained there. That makes HUGE profit.
The Drops (According to Monster Book)
Scrolls: Crossbow Attack 60%. Knuckle Attack 60%. Helmet INT 60%. Bot HP 60%. Shield Str 10%.
Stimulators: 1 Handed Mace, 2 Handed Mace, 2 Handed Sword.
Powders: White Powder, Brown Powder.
The Strategy
Step 1: Stand here and spam the crap out of sharks. You do NOT get hit here at all. Sharks uses a small amount of MP, so your MP Pots shouldn't take a big dent at all. Do a couple sharks to the right, a couple to the left. The sharks to the right should hit all the mobs to the right of you, and bring them close. The sharks to the left of the screen should go quite a long ways. Only occasionally you'll need to go over and get the stragglers against the wall.
Step 2: Get the stragglers. If the spawn starts to slow down, there are probably a huge amount that like to hug the wall. Go take care of them, and go back to your sniping spot.
Step 3: Profit. Once the drops pile up, go pick them up. A pet works extremely well here. Then, repeat.
It's prime for Thunder Breakers due to sharks BIG range. Go try it out. Also, the EXP isn't too bad at all. It was bearable. The meso drops I took notice of were between 400-700 mesos. It's great!
By standing it the stair, I was able to hit the whole map, without being hit at all. Sharkwave hits both platform at the same time, so the spawn is great.
Not sure about the drop tho, I was there for exp, so I never looted.

There's a video of a DW training there, but it's not as efficient as it is with TBs. Sharkwave has enough range to hit the absolute right side from the snipe spot, DWs don't have that luxury. They have to get off and hit the right, as well as get off and lure/attack the left.

Shark Wave is a marvelous skill!
[color="#cc8899"]I got 3 Steelnos and a 4 above Doombringer there on my Dawn Warrior. I love the place, but it is a bit high on the HP side of the HP/Exp ratio.
@ Above, I will try Himes at 90 with a priest friend of mine.[/COLOR]
if you do have the Malaysia Fantasy Theme Park Map, simple leveling from 75-95 just a day of time with 2x EXP Coupon. The mobs (level 87) is weak to lightling & the HP/EXP ratio 30000/2000. The acc just no problem. avoid 27
