i have totally given up on XP at this point...
(this test character cant be too strong now)

so i have shifted to reload hunting 100% of the time...
i kill all the Spawns, leaving the Imps & save.

kill everything red (8 Imps) & tap the hero icon
no RoL? reload!

no Spawns left to get in the way,
they wont be dropping the RoL anyway.

[NICE & QUICK]

best of luck to the hunters out there!!!
i plan to be stealing life shortly!

Code: Select all

if i wanted the XP, i go in and NEVER kill a Spawn...
the imps respawn very quickly & you can kill a LOT more than 8 in three mins
almost every single time - no need to kill & wait for three mins...

just keep walking around dodging spawn!
(gives you something interesting to do while waiting for respawns)

ctnbeh13 said he thought mobs respawned faster if you kept moving.
[and after experimenting, i concur!] 

I take it one step further...
I killed the 3 spawns east of the bridge and then hit-and-ran the 5 imps so that their HP was down to < 15. I then waited to all were fairly close to me before saving. Now I load and the 5 imps are within a few tiles of the hero and can be killed in one or 2 hits. I kill on 5, reload and repeat. Each reload and clear takes me about 10-12 seconds.
I just looted 30 PSG in 20 minutes doing this.

554 PSG

it had become an art form!

epic!

Congratulations Tek!

Thanks guys. I took my new found RoL into the Iqhan cave and have since died three times on the way to the boss. The boss has then killed me twice more. Man, I love this game.

Tek: need to the link for A.T.A again good sir?

Who am i kidding?

We all know the way there by now.

Happy hunting sir Tek!

With any item that just has a stupid layout, like not enough monsters or only one room with monsters it it (kazaul imps) just get a save point directly next to the monsters and then kill and load. The reason is that with those kinds of rooms (in this case im talking about the kazaul imps), you can only kill at least 8 maybe up to 16 monsters in a few minutes, and if you are leaving the room for 3 minutes for all of the monsters to respawn, it takes waaaay too long to kill approx. 10000 monsters. Although if you save with 2 or 3 monsters directly next to you, you can kill them, and if you don't get the item just go back to the menu and load the save again. Let's say it takes 6 seconds to kill and load the save (if you are spam mashing your attack button with instant attack), you are standing next to 2 monsters. That is 20 kills a minute, 60 kills in 3 minutes opposed to about 8 in a little more than 3 minutes. Of course you are only getting experience for 2 kills the whole time you grind, but it is much much faster and I am willing to make the trade-off for time.

That is good advice for impatient players who do not want to grind for long periods of time or to grow to a large level.

The only problem is that you will not have the counter items, you wont know where you are in the 1 : 10,000 (approx)

That is exactly how I grinded from my RoL. My MF skill is at five, and I did in fact time out my average kills a minute was save directly in the middle of 3 imps and averaging 3 kills every 3-4 seconds! Took some hours of doing it mon-stop. I also did it that way to stop leveling up so much, my guy is practically a god with the critical hits, and I want to still be challenged in later updates
