What is a green mob? and what will be the best way to deal with this event? Go solo and grind for hours? join a party? or go grind and do quests?

A green mob is a monster that is a few levels below you (I think around 3-5 levels - someone correct me on that). When you click on a mob to select it, it's name and power bar show up at the top of the screen. The name of the mob is written in a color either red, orange, white, green, or blue.

As for dealing with the event, event or not, I never grind solo. I always join (or form) an experience distribution party. If the party is full (4 people) each person gets an additional 10% experience for each kill they do. Party members can be anywhere in the map, so you're not restricted like you are in experience auto share parties. The extra experience bonus, on top of the event bonus, is nice.

The only way I'd do an experience auto share party is if I had a full 8 players and we all wanted to grind on the same mobs. I believe there's a bonus there, but everyone has to be quite close to each other.

I think quests would help too. You get the experience for grinding anyway, but also the reward experience (which should be increased because of the party and event right?)

Just my $0.02

lol this is why I don't like the "smart ppl" at Joymax that plan out stuff like this. They're making up for the servers crashing a lot by crashing the servers. How many people are usually on in a given day? That's right, too many. How many more do you think will go out of their way to be on during the event because of the added bonuses? It's going to be one week of constant inspections. I'm looking forward to the single time tickets that I bet will result though

Grab a squirrel/monkey, gold ticket, join a party exp. distribution and kill mobs/do quest for 168 hours straight...

haegar · Post by **haegar** » Sat Oct 21, 2006 11:13 am

I just love the "100% increased chance of items".

Right now the chance on an item is about 1 in 500, if you increase that by 100% it´s 2 in 500...

Forgive me if this was already mentioned, but what is the exact time the compensation even will occur? (EST)

AoENuker · Post by **AoENuker** » Tue Oct 24, 2006 11:35 am

This is a very bad idea ..... all the high lvl guys will be grinding monsters and geting 100% chance of item drop .... thats ganna get the sos som ans sosun and all the other rare item PRICE DROPPED.... the economy will callapse after this event....

dont do it for 7 days please or all the high lvls will get rich ... what about us low lvls who cant get over 100k and these high lvls geting sos drops every monster they kill ?

we will be geting noob items and they get the rare items....

its not fair....

Since when do high lvl guys get rare items for every kill? I've seen a lot of characters, both high, and low, selling full stalls of SOS/SOM/SOSun items on various occasions, but that doesn't mean they get them from drops. I've known at least a few people that buy Seal items at a low price and sell for profit.

You can't get over 100k? Well then honestly you're doing something wrong. Money isn't all that hard to earn in this game. You just have to set your prices right and know the right things to sell. I guess it depends on just how low level you're talking. If you're lvl 8, sure you won't make a lot of money, but it shouldn't take you long to get to lvl 20 and do a couple trade runs to get 100k.

And with this event, you'll reach lvl 20 even quicker.

im talking in general .. i have wayyyyy over 100k ....
