Profitable Boss killing

okay so im pushing 200k range now but i needa plan to get over the empress vs ra/tyrant bump still so id figured id start bossing for profit instead of fun now.

and due to this i need to ask around what range would i need to be sucessfull at empress/cpb since they seem like most profitable right now....(i kno they halve my damage and all but just want a benchmark cus i kinda dont want to xfer equips to evan just so i can kill those guys ) idk if i dont do a fast solo just want a benchmark range where its worth me attempting

@freezenlight i think they are trying to bring back party play to bosses and still make them hard enough where u hv to spend$ in order to kill said boss.and its alot more than .001% that can solo these bosses id say a full 1-3% of maplers with around 40%(Maybe cus im in mardia but that number seems like it should b larger) able to solo bosses equal to or weaker than cht. and then there is everybody else i guess

[quote=NinjaOfTennis]I have heard you need around a 1m range to V2 Empress.
Max range for full.
Magnus IDK, I assume around 1m.

Not worth it though, the amount of $ you would need to achieve these ranges is insane, so don't be stupid.[/quote]

Nexon: lets make bosses that are worthwhile to only 0.001% of the maplers. YAY

i see so unleashed screwed everything up lol. and i wasnt planning on soloing. i hv some buddies and guildies- we were able to kill empress and cpb in party before unleashed but i kno emp is insane right now and gaurds arnt dropping items (i think nexon purposly stopped drops to make us spend more on marvel and crap but ooh well)

@Choobies i rather dislike spending alot of money on this game so i wont get anywhere close to this damage. plus BaM have a damage penalty that other mages dont hv since we dont hv ele reset so even if i had alot more to spend in funding i doubt its actually possible to get to the point where a mage can solo cpb. u

i already do ra daily- dabble in c ra just to get the kno how of the new skills they added to bosses....(queens gonna b a pain thats all i can say)

@SkyBreak: Well, it was a small oversight, but yes you can try to do RA for the weapons that all scrolls pass on and perfect it and sell it. I'll fix my statement: You cannot boss for consistent, meaningful amounts of money right now.

[quote=zpattack12]@SkyBreak: I'm sorry, you can make profits if you are so godly funded you can kill Empress/CPB, the only two bosses good for money. And the funding required to hit that strength makes the profits tiny in comparison.[/quote]

Profit is still profit, no matter how small it is.

Ex: RA box giving decent item that worth money.
Smaller bosses like Zakum and Hilla dropping Dabr/Wabr Recipe

I have no idea if anyone has killed empress after the unleashed patch. For the high end bosses (mangus, empress, CPB, Ra chaos), you are going to need a full party, (or full expedition), and have a crazy amount of range/damage. I'm talking about 500k+ range, and that might not even be good enough party wise. Long story short, you will make no profit from bossing because.... A: you need a high range (which is the main reason you want to boss, so you can get items to increase your range) B: the bosses that give good items are close to impossible C: You need really strong friends to help you boss (thus cutting the profit if you so happen to get an item that sells for a lot). Sorry to break you down like this, but that's how maple currently is.

I don't think anyone can solo CPB at this point after the revamp...
