I'm pure str bow and I'm farming at 42. I've got an sos +3 bow and a full set of sos garms and jewelry. I farm on the sungsungs and sosungsungs in asia minor. The only reason being is because there are too many gold bots at Bunwangs. I get about 400-500 sp per hour and that's without gt/monkey/pt.. etc. I think I do pretty well. I usually 1-hit them with strongbow. If strongbow's on recharge, I use anti-devil + arrow combo and that usually finishes the mob off. I haven't tested how much sp I make on bunwangs cuz I don't wanna be farming near all those gold bots :banghead: . But I doubt it's as fast as the sungsungs. Btw the sungsungs are lvl 38 and sosungsungs are 37.

Thanks alot man, and yeah that place is full of gold bots.
Now those bots are lvl 52+ and killing bunwangs damit that sucks.

Anywya I think thats kinda low killing mobs 5 lvls lower than you, but if you get you'r sp then it's great. =D

By the way, have you tried killing some stronger monsters?

DMD, don't be put off by the level of Sungsung... they're a fantastic farming mob, believe me.

The spawn there is massive, and very quick so it's a constant supply.

You might get less per kill there than at 42+ mobs, but you kill quicker and you kill more, so it makes up for it.

Plus, green mobs offer higher droprates. :wink:

Thanks man but I still think they are low. xD
Although if they hardly hit you and you kill em fast, it's a great place.

So it is bad as i thought. xD

So anyone else?
Im wondering if it's possible farming on Mujigis or what ever you call em. xD
Will a 42+5 SoS bow be strong enough to farm which at Mujigis?
They are so close to the town. lol

If you mean levelling, yeah... but you won't kill them fast enough to call it 'farming'.
