Post-BB %/hour rates

I'd like to start a thread compiling all the known post big bang training rates.

All of these are 1x. If you'd like to contribute, please convert from whatever exp modification the player is using to 1x (although I doubt there are many videos of people with exp cards).


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Level 70 battle mage training in leben mines.

On 1080p quality, you can see that he gets ~10% in ~4 minutes. That comes out to 150% per hour.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Level 95 battle mage training at leben mines.

At 720p quality, you can see that he gets 3.85% in ~2 minutes. That comes out to 115.5% per hour.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Level 126 paladin training at spirit vikings.

She gets exactly 3% in ~4 minutes. That comes out to 45% per hour consistently. Not bad for 126 without any kind of exp modification (cards, family rep, etc.).

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Level 88 aran training at roids.

He gets ~3% in ~ 1 minute. That's comes out to 180% per hour.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

lvl 69->70 took me about 1 hour 20minutes

lvl 85->86 took me about 0 hour 35 minutes

I was unfunded so I looted the event boxes for (a lot of) free pots. So I guess training without cross-continental-lag-looting is 25% faster!

But Mechs train just -really- fast, since they get that 4th job warrior rush skill in 1st job. lvl30 was about 2 hours on 1x exp rate... That includes travelling for quests... xD

On my lv46 Wild Hunter at CD's, I'm making roughly 10% per minute.

I was getting ~285%/h at 53 with a striker with total pomegranate gear at drakes.

1-30 is an easy hour if you skip the Edelstein misc quests and go straight to Victoria Island to train on Jr.Neki/Ligators.

I spammed Scroll Lock when I trained my Wild Hunter this past summer. I'll try and post rough rates for 30-70. They are based on the time stamps from each level up picture.

I think I leveled up from 30 to 31 entirely off of quest. Between advancing, starting out Mushroom Kingdom, and a few event quest.
31->32: 16 minutes doing Mushie quest to get into the castle
33: 11 minutes doing some more quest and using that arrow bomber on Helmet pepes
34: 5 minutes exclusively at Pepes.
35: 6 minutes @ Pepes.
36: 8 minutes @ Pepes.
37: 8 minutes @ Pepes.
38: 10 minutes @ Pepes and finishing a quest (200 helmets? not sure)
39: 17 minutes @ Pepes + travel and/or more quest?
40: 15 minutes @ Pepes
41: 16 minutes @ Pepes.
42: 17 minutes @ Pepes.
43: 29 minutes @ Pepes.
44: 20 minutes @ Kerning Square CDs + travel time
45: 15 minutes @ CDs
46: 17 minutes @ Dolls in Kerning Square
47: 15 minutes @ Dolls in Kerning Square
48: There is a 4 hour difference here. I have no idea.
49: 20 minutes @ CDs
50: 24 minutes @ CDs

30-50 took about 245 minutes or 4 hours of training. Give or take 20 minutes.

This was within the first week or two of Resistance, so I do not know about any changes that might affect these areas.

CDs are popular. Really popular. I went there when it was early or late in Korea to avoid crowds. Dolls was pretty empty and I could KS almost anyone who tried to interfere. pomegranate was crazy.

Also keep in mind that I had a Pink Tube, which spiked my damage. Would a normal weapon have made training much slower? I do not know.

I browse almost exclusively from New Post, so I did not even notice that it had moved.

More training data.

50->51: About 25 minutes at Ant Tunnel 1
52: 24 minutes at AT 1
53: 27 minutes at White Pangs
54: 4 hour difference in pictures, cannot derive time2level
55: 40 minutes at White Pangs
56: 40 minutes at White Pangs
57: 40 minutes at White Pangs
58: 40 minutes at White Pangs
59: 40 minutes Robos
60: 40 minutes at Robos
61: 45 minutes (while being KSed) at Robos
62: 30 minutes at Robos
63: 35 minutes at Robos
64: Another few hours break
65: 1 hour 45 minutes (105 minutes)

50-65 looks like about 8 or 9 hours of training.
Beyond here there are a lot of breaks... lemme get back to you on those.

From what I can tell so far, as you approach level 100 your %/hour approaches exactly 1 level per 1 hour. I'd say that it's possible to do 1 - 100 in under 14 days for the casual player who can only commit 1 - 3 hours per day during the week, and possibly more during the weekend.

I was getting ~285%/h at 53 with a striker with total pomegranate gear at drakes.

Wow, I'm liking these rates already. Bumping for awesomeness and for referencing.

You took what I was thinking of doing about making a thread and took it to a whole new level.

I applaud you good sir~

I like the rates so far, expecially the level 100 in 14 days bit. Makes my life easier for my wild hunter soon to be =x

On my lv46 Wild Hunter at CD's, I'm making roughly 10% per minute.

We need more rates so I can hype more. Especially going through all the KMS videos that are posted in the video thread. AristosMS is also a good source.

I was about to ask what pomegranate gear is, then it hit me. xD

If you'd like to eyeball the experience bars, I'll be happy to add any new information and credit you.

The hardest part about doing this is that there are very few high quality videos, and the few that do exist are usually 120+.

Your exp per hour rate went up? That's weird, but thanks, I'll post these.

When you say that level 30 was 2 hours, does that mean that you did 1 - 30 in two hours?

1-30 is an easy hour if you skip the Edelstein misc quests and go straight to Victoria Island to train on Jr.Neki/Ligators.

I don't know how others feel, but 60-76 drives me up the wall. Easily the worst level range ever since they nerfed puppets. Once you start hitting Ariant/Magatia, things REALLY pick up.

That's usually the level raneg that annoys me the most. Please tell me it took you only a few hours. =(

One of the mobs in the Kerning Plaza.

Image example, in case you have seen them but have not connected them with their name.

It seems like nexon wants me to like grinding wants us to like grinding..
This makes me hyped about BB and maybe just train another page or warrior to 120 for fun

This man is absolutely correct. It was hell training there when Resistance came out. Wild Hunters and Battle Mages are master KSers. If the Tespia data is correct, and 4 servers will be released the same time Big Bang is, plus the absence of Resistance, it should be a bit easier.

I've been meaning to ask about that. What is the Kerning plaza? Is it out already? Will it come out with BB? Does it have good spots?

The monsters in that screenshot are completely obscured by arrow bomb. xD

I'm glad to hear that 30 - 50 only took 4 hours. I do NOT want to go through CPQ again...

It came out a while ago. It was an area like Mushie Kingdom that booted you out at level 50. Post BB the level restrictions are gone. (PreBB Mushie would have booted me at level 38, was it?)

Look to the right.

Ah, thanks. So is that area out for GMS? If not, any idea when it's coming?

Yeah it's out in GMS. It's Kerning Square

Took 1h 30m to get from 46-50
