What's the best class of AoE attack farming?

[L-laine]

I bought the game during the sale last week and haven't started it up yet (took several days to download anyway) and I want to know which class has the easiest time grinding. I was thinking about taking the Darkknight class first but have no idea how it plays.

So you're comparing awakened Ranger to non-awakened witch?
Sounds legit.

Wizard/witch/DK are generally considered to be the top 3 strongest classes. Especially for PvE grinding.

He has no clue what hes talking about. Using descending current with awakening ranger is just pure nonsense. But considering that 56 can be done in less than 10h i dont expect him to know much about the class.

You've obviously never played any other class besides DK and witch because the first thing you probably looked up was a tier list. If you were a hardcore BDO player, you would've made 6 classes minimum and probably played all of them up to 56 for the fame bonus and leaving your alts towards auction houses as well as life skilling, but you don't seem to be that type, just a 2 class pvper.

Whether you're 1 hour or 1000hours, it could all be in just 2 classes. Btw, you may have almost 800 hrs of gameplay, but I'm sure 700 of those hours are afk.

3 lvl 56 classes and 1 lvl 57 sorc with 380 gear score that can completely rekt any of your characters
Stop being so delusional, OP was just asking what class was better for AoE farming and the answer is wizard/witch or dark knight, this isnt an opinion, this is a fact, ranger cant stand a chance grinding against those classes in any area past lvl 55

800 hrs and only 4 classes post awakening out of 6 (7 if you bought the 1 loyalty striker). Let me guess, the 3 that you didn't mention is wizard, dark knight and ninja, so you don't even know what a ranger can do, huh? You probably have a low lvl tamer, warrior, and/or Musa just sitting there.

Let me break down for you. I didn't say a ranger can take on pvpers nor high lvl areas. Pirate island requires a party, and I say that because you'll run into another party that'll pvp you. The same went for sausan pre-patch. If you pvp anyone, that's downtime, meaning you're not farming efficiently. If and when you do farm with a party, you have to share loot. Either all of you have pets or none of you use pets. Either way, you get only 1/4th of the drops. So all that "high leveled" areas is out the window. You want silver, you go for areas you can farm the most silver. I pointed out saunil a 30s area. It's on YouTube. If you were to race a wizard and a ranger against each other who would farm the area faster, it would be ranger. Ranger can run faster, AoE further and attack 4x faster when wizard isn't buffed. If you don't believe me, try the character out. You get ultimate descending at 50. Why ultimate descending vs shotgun? It only takes 1 ultimate descending to kill everything 360 while spinning. Kill and move on.

I never said ranger can out dps a wizard. Wizard can destroy a ranger 10/10 with same gear score. I know that. In fact, almost every class can destroy a ranger, but we're not talking about pvp battles. We're talking about how much resources can I get per hour.

Delusional? Did I make you angry since you said you can beat me? That's some pvp talk. Op just asked who can AoE farm better, not AoE pvp siege wars players better. Seriously, only 4 classes with 800hrs? Kinda makes you look like, idk, 700hrs afk like I pointed out earlier.

3 characters with +300 GS each,which is something you havent being able to reach in those 200 hour, why would anyone bother having 8 lvl56 characters if their gear is ♥♥♥♥ and they cant enjoy then at their full potential?.
i could just explain to you how you can make +100millions in a couple of relics runs instead of killing saunils, or how you can get more xp in bashims than in pirates or sausans, or that people dont really bother to kill other players in sausans or pirates, thats just a meme, but considering how stubborn you are it would be a just waste of time. also i called you delusional because you woulnt stop talking nonsense even after other people explained to you why you were wrong, anyway you should take a screenshot from this, save it and watch it in a couple of weeks or months when you actually learn to play the game so you can see how stupid did you look typing all of that nonsense garbage

If you're just going to pull a politician speech monologuing pre-brag you basically proven my point. Saunil for farming 100mil+ silver. You could have 300gs, big deal, it isn't needed against lvl 30s that are all one-shot. You could just run accessories and a weapon just to be lighter if that's your fancy. You only need 50DP. Who farms the best? The one that runs the fastest, which is the ranger.

[angelo]

at this point i dont even know if you are trolling or you are actually that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stupid, dude someone already told you that killing mobs below your level lowers the drop rate, making things like killing saunils less efficient, you could literally get 10 times more silver doing any other thing than killing low level mobs, you are just too delusional to realize that, and again with lightning chain a witch can kill 50 of those low level mobs in less than 5 seconds, so even for that a witch is still better, i know nobody likes being told that their fav character is garbage, but thats the way it is, rangers are good for many things, farming isnt just one of then, also instead of running without armor just get one with 2 slots and place some weight crystals, jesus dude really LEARN TO PLAY THE ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ GAME

[TemplarGFX]

Witch/Wizard for farming, Chain lightning hits 6 and with addons can buff you to tank better and gives you a constant kinda-AOE basic attack with decent damage/buffs. Then you have lightning and Fireball. All three attacks are spammable and hit groups, and each has a combo skill you can add to the end of the attack that is also even more AOE. 100% Rage is huge AOE with alotta damage

I havent hit 56 yet but getting to 55.36 has been quick and easy due to the speed and number of kills I get.

just my opinion

edit oh and Witch/Wizard have heal and mana steal. the area heal also gives you mana making it free if your not interrupted so you can run with very few pots, or much longer before needing to get more

Wiz, everyone plays it, you should to

You kill 50 enemies in 5 seconds with chain lightning. Think about it for a second. The range of chain lightning is 15m. You couldn't even get 50 enemies even 360. That kind of exaggeration is why it's so unbelievable. Saying you can farm 100mil in saunil and back track and say it lowers the chance at higher levels. You're starting to contradict yourself. Yeah, I play ranger, but I also play maehwa, dark knight, witch, tamer, sorceress and warrior. I know what classes can do and can't do. I know their range and I know their strengths and weaknesses. Witch is high tier, probably number 1, but maybe not everyone likes to be told their favorite character can kill 50 weak sauce mobs in 5 seconds. The closest would probably be you 360 chain while instant buffed and teleporting and doing the same thing. Even the teleport will only get you 15 meters. So 2 360 spins with a range of 15 meter chain lighting for a total of 30 meters of chain lighting. That's almost the similar distance of 1 360 ultimate descending, just saying. That only kills 30 enemies at most. 50 enemies in 5 seconds seems far fetched like bringing 300gs to saunil with crystal slots, like killing ants with a tank. Might as well just bring a horse with a wagon instead and just wear Hercules 3-piece w/+5 luck crystals." instead of all that boss gear since they do minimal damage. So...how about you learn how to play the farm?

No actually, my main is a level 57 berserker, thanks for trying though.
I've got level 56 striker and DK, and a Sorc and Valk at 51 which I'll finish awakening at some point.
Haven't even played Witch, did try wizard though, but didn't enjoy it much so I sold the weapons and deleted it. Very boring to play. Can't deny how stupidly strong it is though.
The only PvP I really do is nodewars, gotta get those payouts.

Level 56 DK with +15 weapons does more damage than 57 zerker with duo weapons, #feelsbadman.

Please stop talking about Saunils. It hurts my soul that someone who is level 56 would still be grinding Saunils. Please be trolling. You could be farming high level mobs even with unupgraded gear, and be getting more money and more XP.

[DCid]

Saunils wont give you anything at 56. Drop rates decrease when you start to go over the recommended mob level.

Mobs have colors indicating the viability of drops and the level of difficulty.

Red means your level is too low to handle them.

Pink means you're within the recommended mob levels.

Green means your at peak efficiency for clearing mobs.

Dark gray means it's time to move on. You wont be getting anymore drops from these mobs.

Really good information here guys thanks for all the info. I decided that I'll pick DK and witch whenever I get around to playing it this week. About having mulitple characters can I create as many as I want or do i have to pay for extra characters to make?

I would heavily encourage you to make multiple characters.
There are many benefits from having alts in this game, even if you don't level them.

Storage is shared between all your characters. So are your workers and contribution points (you use these to invest in production nodes and such for your workers), and your max energy.
Energy is used for a lot of different purposes, like gathering resources, and each of your characters gets their own pool of energy. The max energy is shared and based on knowledge which you gain by discovering lore, talking to NPCs, finding new areas, killing monster, reading books etc.

Since the game has no fast travel either it can be handy to have characters strategically placed around the world, so you don't always have to ride everywhere on your main.
