Lets say you have a sos weapon and you can kill reds as fast as the greens w/o a sos then you would want to fight reds because of the higher exp and and get items that are closer to your lvl or higher. Corect me if im wrong please

however unless you have full sos gear you are going to take a lot of damage from them and use more pots and waste a whole lot more money, but if you are down for that, then go ahead. :-P

I remember maong's drop rate was REALLY low. I only did the quest on it and did not grind to level on it. Pick a different mob.

I been grinding on Nachals since they were red mobs for me.

Red, Orange, Silver and now Green - same drop rate, some days better than others :)

It is the mobs not the colour of the mobs in my experience.


I never said it was a higher chance PER KILL. I said YOURE KILLING MORE MOBS, THEREFORE YOU HAVE BETTER CHANCES TO GET A DROP.

Yes there are exceptions for every rule. IE the people who are decked out with SOS gear, with a awesome weapon. Have fun killing reds, while the rest of us who arent rich, kill whites and greens, and only occasionally an orange or a red.

I think you need to have some stuff broken down "barney-style" to you.

Yeah, not so much. its simple math and you are all twisting things and making things up to "prove" your points.

Since whether you get a drop or not is random, no matter what type of monster you kill (R, O, W, and G ), then by killing more mobs in a shorter amount of time you have more opporunities to randomly get a drop. How can you not see that?

Here this should make it simple for you. If 50 NFL players and 50 girl scouts came up to you and said "one by one, you can fight us all, and if/when you beat one of us up, no matter who it is you have an equal chance of getting some money out of us. Who would you fight?". Anyone who says the NFL player if retarded and just arguing to argue.

Yes, there are exceptions. Maybe you have amazing gear and CAN kill Red and Orange mobs just as fast you kill Whites and Greens, well by all means, STFU and just go do it. But for us none gold buyers ( :wink: ) we have to remember about money for pots. So killing mobs lower levels than us makes more sense if we are trying to make money by getting more drops.

Please tell me you understand that.

In other words: Do you know who fights white/green monsters? Poor people lol (ie total noobs)

why else do you think goldbots grind greens?

if i don`t have a sos i grind greens the exp/sp and the drops you get are far better with sos or +3/4/5 i grind whites
i usually never grind anything that takes me more than 3 skills to kill.

goldbots grind greens because they don't have to use any skills, nor imbue.

i haven't gotten a drop for the past week, so don't complain :x

maybe Joymax hates me... :(
