Valkyrie Players UNITE!

That works too. :3

Edit: It turns out Mukas are pretty decent for Base EXP. I'm getting 0.6% at level 43, they're really weak and they can barely hit me. They only give about 0.3% Job EXP, but hey, I'll take what I can get.

Mukas are okay, but what are your stats that you can't take on Wolves at level 43? o.o

PS: Save the Green Herbs from Mukas (people will pay a lot for them when the Nameless Island quest is unlocked, and if you're high enough level, you'll want some, too!), and sell the Cactus Needles to other players. They need them for getting higher in the Alchemist rankings, and later on when there are Assassin Crosses (soon, really!) they'll be needed for making EDP bottles.

[Takarashi]

40 STR, 40 AGI, 14-15 (not sure which) VIT and 20 DEX. Those are without the level buffs. I actually haven't tried wolves in a little bit, but the 56 STR/DEX stats they have with an average damage of 160 or more isn't appealing to a guy toting about with a bunch of Novice potions. Keep in mind I'm aiming for a Perfect Dodge/Critical build so I won't be hitting hard for a long time.

Edit: I've been saving my green herbs from various creatures so far (I have 56) and now I feel kinda bad that I sold like 150 cactus needles for 30 Zeny to NPCs. >.<

Edit 2: 45/33, 17 job levels to Assassin.

You're thinking of Desert Wolves. o.o They mean wolves, normal ones.
These ones
They're 2 south of payon.
I found Mukas good base exp too on my Ninja, and being able to sell cactus needles to players is a plus. I didn't know about green herbs though, glad I've been saving mine too... for no reason... except they're a quick fix for poison. o.o;

So anyway, I've been real busy so I haven't been able to play much at all~ Still 44. But I made a mage on another account yesterday who is currently level 15. I'll get him to Gao-killing-level and then leech my swordy. Two birds with one stone kind of thing, a way to level my swordy and I get an endow slave.

[Takarashi]

WTF. Such an easy source of EXP... that has to be illegal.

Thanks for correcting me, though. If the place isn't swarming with people all the time I might try them.

[Mog Knight]

Oh, the place is never swarming with people. ;D
It's swarming with bots. With some people around too.

[Blackmager]

They're not too big a problem except for the one involving them stealing stuff.
D;

Although I kinda like it when there's people there, since when there's too many Wolves I end up being attacked by a million of them and I die.
Plus, there are some AFK Alchemists that just stay there.

I like to stay where they are sometimes and pick up their drops since they're not going to anyway.

[Mog Knight]

Yeah though there are many bots, they're easy enough to ignore. It kinda irritates me how they walk up to your monster/loot, stay there for a second, then walk away, but it doesn't effect your leveling.

My mage is level 32/23 now. o.o; I have a new found love for Bill of Birds.

[Daenyris]

Yeah, Bill of Birds is pretty much a godsend. I never intend to actually killl anything between level 10 and level 31 again, lol.

And yeah, Desert Wolves are definitely different from regular Wolves, lol.

So the seals rolled today. I don't know if you guys know much about them, but if you look up the God Items Quest on iRO Wiki you can read up on it. I did the third Seal on my Wizard/Dancer/Priest and opened the OCAs since they're they're worthless on Valk since no one has any zeny... I got a Poporing Card, a Wolf Card and a Drops Card. sad I could have sold the OCAs for like 500k apiece and made five times as much zeny off of it, lol.

Then I did the fourth Seal on my Dancer, since a guildie picked the random option and got a Rapture Rose. I got a Weeder Knife.

Pshhhhh! See if I ever play this game again! lol

[Mog Knight]

I saw the third seal open while I was killing some poporings~ I don't know how the quest works at all though, just the general item requirements and that god items can be made when the seals open.
Sucks about the cards, but hey, Drops and Wolf are at least worth -something-, better than nothing, right? :3
As for the weapons... need more Ice Picks... so the price can gradually decrease~ I don't have any intention of trying to look into purchasing one anytime soon, but who knows what the far... far distant future holds? x3

[Daenyris]

They'd be worth something if they weren't heavily botted. Unfortunately... wink

The quests are fairly easy, but time-consuming.

In all likelihood, no one is selling the Ice Picks they made last night. If they made one they didn't need, it will probably stay in their guild.

The next time the seals roll a few will probably be for sale, but the prices will be far out of your range. Unfortunately, for the seals to roll again, someone has to make a God Item. My guild is close to being able to make an Aesprika, but that requires an entirely different quest. No one is very close to being able to make a God Item that requires THIS quest, therefore it could be six months-ish before the seals roll again.

If I were you, I'd just see about gathering the items needed to make my own before that happens. Six months should be plenty of time for that. smile

[Takarashi]

You kids and your daggers that deal more damage based on defense.

Edit: I found a Mantle [1] while killing wolves. I'm happy. :3

[Mog Knight]

They're like, cool daggers that deal more damage based on defense though D: ! They help you in so many places/situations!

But yes, I know they'll be quite expensive when people do start to sell them, thus why I said far, far distant future. x3 Even on Chaos, where Ice Picks aren't nearly as rare, and I wasn't nearly as poor, I never had one, since I would have had to sell some of my better gear to afford one. :/

[Daenyris]

Ice Pick = the best leveling tool for pretty much anything that can use it. Ice Titans bow down to it. smile

[Arisen]

I can't afford premium right now, so I just started playing Valkyrie a couple days ago. xd

name: Klar
Merchant, going for Alch
30/24

I'm about to go make a thief:

name: SmellyElly
soon to be Thief
1/1 xd

[Mog Knight]

Ah~ x.x;
Mage is level 39 now, with 10 firewall and fire bolt, I figured I'd try Gaos when I got 10 firewall but, well, to put it bluntly I fail at using a mage. I died so many times. xD After like 40 minutes I got used to the concept of vertical fire wall but I still messed it up a bit. The mantis killed me more often though, I can't seem to get in a firewall to block them so I can run, and they get close pretty easily. x.x;
So now I'm at Geos which is okay, but their mdef makes me sad. >:
