Im gonna pluck my eyes out

I CANT STAND IT. All the good maps are taken and full and theres nowhere else to train for my phantom in this son of a populated server. Whenever I do find a channel, I get ksed after 4 minutes. (YES THIS IS QQ.) I don't even know what to do now.

There are always other maps. Stop congregating around popular maps.

Thank you for belittling me, that was completely justified.
No, not really.
And I wear this outfit cause I like it. Wouldn't get caught dead (And I probably would be, considering the DEF) wearing this.
My training outfit is really quite hideous, so that's why.

Insults aside, I meant that I'm becoming spoiled with the EXP rates, thinking that 1 level every half hour was too slow, when back then 100% per hour was amazing.

@wickedjr89: Yeah, of course, though it really shouldn't take that long to find someone willing to share xD

[quote=DragonHaQ]@Mastachicken: Really? I usually share maps with people at Aliens xD[/quote]

It depends on the person. I find when I can't find a map to myself I have no problem sharing, and some people do some don't. I don't get why when a map is plenty big enough to share that people have issues with it o.o that's when I just CC and find someone willing to share the map or find another map, assuming i'm not at that particular map for a reason like a quest.

I usually see plenty of people willing to share a map, and a few that aren't. Depends.

Either find an alternative map or....change servers...do they still have character transfer nx things? Scania is way over populated. As is Windia. Even Broa is kind of getting there...slowly but surely. Scania is the worst with over population. o.o

Why not PQ? Romeo & Juliet PQ at your level would girve pretty good EXP, and you shouldn't have a problem finding a party considering your server's population.

Most people on popular maps won't share even if you ask nicely.

I remembered training in the Toy Room on my Battle Mage for hours to level 90, thinking it was god-level fast (Right after Big Bang).
I've slowly been infected by the fast-level disease since then...

PQing is very good, and you can make new friends as well. Otherwise, just go to an alternative training map that isn't as crowded.

Go train at maps where no one would train at.

Well, at about 75-90 roids are a good option and they are very rare to be full. I can almost find a channel of my own there (on scania of course). Aside from that, you should do the following:

10-30: Phantom quest line.
31-40: Mushroom kingdom quests and king pepe grind.
41-50: CDs (most often too populated) or Bunnies (less populated, map before CDs).
51-60: LPQ and KPQ.
61-65: Pyramid PQ.
66-70: Cactuses outside Ariant (mini dungeon, lvl 73 ones).
71-77ish: Ellin PQ.
77-90: Roids. (Map C-2)
91-100ish: Romeo and Juliet.
100-110: Try to get an alien map in either Alien Corridor 5-6, or do Ellin/Romeo PQs Each day.
110+: LHC. As much as I hate it myself, this is the best place to be with all the hackers swirming around. Just cc around until you get yourself a channel and then stay ACTIVE! People kick anyone under level 130 if they are inactive too long, or someone with a higher and more suitable level comes around. Try to befriend party leader for a chance to stay in the party. (I suggest avoiding LHC during 2x event and go find an alternative, cause there will be 2+ parties in each channel and suddenly the good 2x exp turned into 0,5x exp of the usual, non-event ones. Be smart about it and find a party hours before otherwise.)

[quote=Crowhogan33]That's because you're in Scania.[/quote]

Yes.
And the reason why I said ''Pluck my Eyes'' is because for the last 4 months, I have NEVER found a good channel for any character I make thats going for 120, or 70. KS'ing is NOT MY THING. I would not waste time chasing some dude around a map and taking his kills, my guild is quiet and barely answers, I don't even think most of my friends on maple play maple anymore.

@ParrotOutlaw Even demethos? Dayum.

I would have gladly said "Come to Bellocan! Bello is un-populated and the members here are friendly." But after we world allied with Nova...Somehow our population exploded and people became buttholes.

Well then maybe you should pop your head out of NLC/MP3/LHC for a while.

There are like 6 other continents that you can go explore.

Oh yeah. And PQing works wonders.

Monster Park isn't available from lv94-13something, so that's off that table if TS is in that level range.

That's your fault for not having good enough KS'ing skills or even guild support to steal the maps back. In large servers like these, you do need friends in high places. Go to another server if you want empty maps.

quest
monster park

you can avoid grinding 100% with these 3 up until about 130 where lhc takes over
