So where should I train my bandit?

Well, I'm a lvl 60 bandit, eager to get to 70.
I have ~12k rep which can be used for 2x buffs (this number is not going to increase, my juniors are my own chars, and they're inactive)
My damage range is 671~1119 without any buffs. This will increase if I train using my stews.

My question is, where should I train to be able to efficiently get the most out of my training?
I'm not funded, I don't have access to NX anytime soon, and I certainly am not strong.
However, I didn't choose this class for its damage, so please try to refrain from bashing my damage. I already experience that from DB's everyday -.-

Also, when can I train on Windraiders? I know how to do the JQ just fine, just wanting to know when would be a reasonable level to start there.

Thanks in advance~

Assault for mobility and also helps dodge attacks. For me if I didn't 2hko with SB I use assaulter to finish them off. It also helps you get back to those middle platforms in case you fall off(this is regarding to lower ascent windraider map).

[quote=powerpwrstr]Do what I'm doing, max steal now. Then, if you hate it, (BoT replaces it), wait til BB comes and you get a freee full SP reset!

I just thought of this right now too! Uggh I wouldve maxed steal out much sooner. (Regrets putting 6 SP into haste) Note: I'm talking bout my lvl 50 dit.[/quote]

LOL, I definitely do NOT hate steal =]
Oh well, I'll just have to wait till lvl 64 to max it out, not too bad =]
And steal's damage gets better after big bang too! I can't wait ^^

Oh yeah, I know I'm reallly jumping the gun here, but when I become a CB (as if lol), out of everyone's personal experience, which would you recommend I put the 1st sp into, [b]Meso Explosion[/b] or [b]Assaulter[/b]?
Thank you in advance :O

Wow thank you everyone for the replies! Didn't think I'd get this much =]
I live in EST time, so sorry for the late comment, I was in school

@OmegaTobias
I have 2200 hp and 1580 mp, if that helps =]
They do around 500-600 dmg to me, but my high avoidability ensures that they miss on me on around 1 atk out of every 4? ^^
With Savage Blow, I 4-5 shot them. My steal isn't maxed yet, only lvl 23, but it's reeeallly helpful. I regret not maxing it earlier.

@MrDrangonBoy
Do you really lose real exp? =[

@uria12
Oh goodies. I should try it if I can actually learn how to do it :O

Aw thank you ^^
Hopefully I'll have enough rep to 2x my way to 70 :O
Only other problem is the repotting....I hate lag on the jq with a burning passion -___-

Wheee only 9 more lvls

Level 23 steal is still great. 55% in 30 minutes is awesome keep it up and you will get chief bandit in on time. Keep it up!

Haha I'm definitely not funded. My damage isn't that great. I tried fighting them today, I did alright I think, 55% in 30 min
My steal is not maxed yet though. Currently, it's lvl 23. At least it can hit 4 at a time - and yeah, the range is huge =]
Maybe if I keep using your method, I can reach lvl 70 by next week? Haha I wish .-.

Thank you for replying again! ^^

If you have maxed steal WR's shouldn't be touching you. Just DS to gather them and find a good area to stand and snipe with steal since the range on that thing is huge. I didn't burn much pots mobbing with steal and you get twice the drops! Oh yeah I managed at 51 because I'm pretty funded. I'm not really you're average bandit but you got stews so that evens everything out .

Thank you for the advice =)
I actually tried going to Windraiders and used 2x exp. I 4~5 shot them, but the exp is massive. In just 30 minutes, I gained ~55%
i was scared that I was too weak to fight them, but with stews, everything turns out alright =]
The only problem is that they hurt, so I have to carry lots of pots X_X

Thank you for replying!

So I guess I shouldn't be impatient =/
I two-shot voodoos and hoodoos, and the spawn rate isnt that great. I guess it beats one shotting scarecrows though...
As for Tornado Corridor, I don't think I can reach there without dying lol

Thank you for replying!

Wow good for you =]
Too bad I don't have any NX for 4x =[
I'm not too fond of CPQ's in general, so I don't know if I want to do that
I guess its too early for me to start training at WRs at lvl 61, huh =[

Thank you for replying!

Wow, since 51? How did you manage :O
I'm always worried that my damage is not high enough. Even with the time traveler medal, 4 atk wg, 77 atk Liu Bei, and a 17/15/15/15 zhelm, my damage per hit for Savage Blow is always ~500-700 X_X
Maybe I'll try the WRs later with the stews. Your post gives me confidence =]

Thank you for replying!

I trained at WR since 51 and it was extremely fast. I'm still there atm and I'm lvl 75. It's extremely good EXP especially with maxed steal. If you are using stews you should have no problem training there. As a bandit I used dark sight often for training since steal can only mob forward. Dark sight to gather then steal mobs to death. Cheap on pots that way too .

Hmm four hit them? That requires my SB to hit ~4000 each time right o.o
I guess I could give it a try when i level, but they also do ~600 dmg to me o.o

As for ghost ship pq, I've never heard of it O.O

Thank you for replying!
