Best class to farm money?

In bossing terms, evo lab terms and just getting good equips for making money overall [b]without being funded[/b], what is the best class to farm mesos?

Hayatos are pretty poop when it comes to killing monsters effectively towards high levels

Any class, but for drops choose a class with +% drop rate.

@ltalKid: Yes, it's just that Luminous hits all over the map, so depending on the layout of the map it can be easier to kill large groups with a Luminous.

Although TS brought up a good point- he can't make a Luminous atm.

I'd go with Xenon over NL for the following reasons:

Easier to get a higher range
Uses 3 stats instead of 1 so easier to find items to fund it
Can equip Pirate stuff which are significantly cheaper than Thief
Weapons are much cheaper
In my opinion, more fun

[quote=ggames]Do you mean you literally want to gather more mesos that drop from monsters?
Or do you want to SAVE mesos? Or mob efficiently?

Personally I found NL the best for farming equips. Drop familiar + showdown + greed pendant gives a cool 230% droprate, +50%(showdown) +160%(spider) + 20%(greed)
In most lvl 150+ maps you can earn 15m+/hour just from showdown + npcing equips. It's not merching status mesos, but it's also not merching.
Also if you got a wolf underling familiar (+200% droprate) instead of 230% your droprate would be 270%, not counting cs cards if you wanted to go totally crazy.

If you want to get mesos without doing a thing, become a kanna and be a full time knight stronghold/h0h mule.
Everyone there with a pet will just automatically give you mesos.

If you want to be even lazier, get a beast tamer to 160/170 and do the same thing (bt aren't as welcome as kannas but also cast their buffs passively, so you could login, and go afk for 9 hours if you wanted).

You can either go mobbing or saving:

Bishop - save on pots + mobbing
Kanna - faster spawn + earn mesos from parties
mech - faster movement of monsters but low mobility
shad - save mesos + increased meso drop buff + potion steal
NL - +50% droprate on monsters[/quote]

I don't plan on picking up the mesos from monsters. I want to save mesos and mob efficiently for different equips and good items to sell, so I'm leaning towards Lumi now. Also leaning towards NL and Xenon since I know they're fast with killers. I also want something good in evo lab, since I'll be getting some equips from there and breaking them down into crystals, so that brings me back to Xenon, Lumi or Hayato, since their main 4th job skills hit a ton of monsters and do great amounts of damage.

So yes, right now I think I've narrowed it down to NL, Xenon or Lumi, but to narrow it even more it's probably between NL or Xenon since I can't create Lumi's now.

ya zeros are pretty good until u cap because they dont do that many lines per second.. altho in long terms of meso making..prob lumi or nl since they can solo just abt every boss

I'd say zero. I started mine unfunded and I've already bossed and merched my way to over 500k range.
