Grinding Methods

[JainFarstrider]

Hi,
I was wondering what routine you guys do for grinding (level 50-59). Here's my usual ways.

Barbarian

If there is a ranged ally with me, I run along and hit about 8 mobs (1 hit = 1/2 hp) and run around in a circle, letting the ranged ally kill them off. About 2X faster than normal grinding.

If there is a conjurer, I buff up my attack and defense and hit about 10 mobs and let them clump together, then kill them off 1 by 1.

If there is a knight, I just grind normal with him.

If there is a warlock with me, I skill lots of knockdowns and deafening roar

If there is another barb... kill kill kill

If there are multiple people, we just destroy anything from very easy to impossible leader.

Conjurer

Spam buffs (cast whenever recharge finishes) and heal and mana when needed.

Hunter

Actually find damage output a lot faster to allow my char to hit the mob once, then immediately press spell button. Strings both close to each other and kills 2X faster. Pretty sure many use this.

Marksman

Nothing needs to be said. Marks is easy to grind.

Knight and Warlock

Don't have them. Have your say.

BTW, as you can see I don't have many good grinding methods. Can you guys enlighten me?

Instant 60 scroll seems to be the fastest method.

As for barbarian, find a slow slash weapon.

Get alot of strength passives, and ofcourse the other remaining obvious buffs.
Use RoL's. When tfb is on cd', you start using southcross on the "harder" mobs, ofcourse you will kill all mobs in 2 hits.

This is how I mindlessly grinded my 10,9m on barbarian.

Knight: all depends on armor, if you have the right armor fast hitting mobs (cats etc.) hit you for 10-15. lvl 5 knock is useless to me, since with +14% as i do 3 hits in a lvl 4 knock with a slow weapon, lvling it to 5 is waste of mana and power points. At 57 i grind without losing hp: just normals on the cats at OC, and hit-knock-hit-hit-hit on the golems (hp regens faster than i lose it).

I don't know how i managed it, but with Imago crystal golems hit me for 10-20. It's more likely that you have to go to the toilet than that you have to rest . And of course i sold all Imago's gear before i made Ice, why why why why

And for all syrtis knights that don't have golems (and beastly sabers): move to alsius, waaaay more fun, imagine not getting your 30 kills of a realm within a day because that realm is underpopulated, won't happen to you in alsius

It is easier to get quest in alsius for lock than in syrtis xd

Conjurer:
Staff Mastery , lots of AS equipment, 30r slow / medium or 25r medium staff with good dmg bonuses + golem + few mentals and self heals ... and you grind well. Only in huge groups you have better exp

Sorry, I'm really interested in what you're trying to say, because Barb is my main, but what's RoL an d tfb?

Rol = Ring of Lightning
tfb = thirst for blood

aah but that is so boring =p I rather support a group of players where the GRP xp is already 150 ^^
That is easily accomplished if you can find 3 knights and a range person
(3knights so they wont kill in 1 hit.. barbarians >.<)

Secondly, I would have to figure out way to many things..
Im lazy and I like it =p
