High or low level farming
#1
Hi,

I have been trying to figure out if it is better to gain exp by farming lower level mobs I can kill quickly or higher level mobs that take longer but offer greater exp.

I done a very quick and unscientific test where I left it for 10 minutes, first time against a level 14 which I can one hit then against level 59 which took longer

level 14 resulted in a 1.55% experience increase
level 59 resulted in a 2.54% experience increase

I'm sure that experiment is flawed though so can anyone shed any light on this?

Thanks

for my experience if u solo do 4 - 5-hits mob then u can afk and still able to do chest but if u only focus on exp then do 2 hits-ko mob best exp outcome

Keep in mind creatures of every 25 levels have a higher (exponential) rate of experience given as well. If you are idling at a 49...switch to a 50+ creature for an added bonus Smile

Thank you both Big Grin

So ideally we want to be idling at the highest level where we can kill the monster in a few hits however aim to always be above each 25 level increment if that makes sense....

so for example if you idling at 24 and doing 2-3 hit KO's it will probably be worth moving to level 26 despite it taking say 4-5 hit KO

In my opinion idling on the highest level monster that you can one shot is best.
Correct me if I'm wrong here, but I'm pretty sure this is how it works.

Monsters have a 1.5 second spawn timer after they've died.
I'm currently idling on the second planet, zone four. (P2 Z4)

In P2 Z4 the monster has 185 hp, it takes my auto click 0.4 seconds to respond ( attack the monster ) after it has spawned, in which it dies instantly.

Total time for 1 kill = 1.9 seconds
Total gold for 1 kill = 65 - 240 ( I have 4 coins drop )
We'll calculate it based off dropping one coin every time, just for an example and to make it easier.
50 kills = 95 seconds ( 1 minute 35 seconds )
50 kills = 3,250g in 1 minute and 35 seconds.


Moving onto some stronger mobs, I 2-3 shot the monsters on planet three, zone 6. (P3 Z6)
6.83s   8.72s   10.69s           These are some of the remaining times left on the mob, starting from 13 seconds.
6.77s   8.74s   8.73s              The overall average of those numbers is roughly 7.86 seconds.
8.73s   6.79s   6.79s
8.74s   8.72s   8.72s
8.74s   6.77s   6.81s
8.73s   8.72s   8.73s
8.73s   10.66s

So, in P3 Z6 they have 625 HP, on average it takes 5.14 seconds to kill the monster. ( 13 - 7.86 )
Time for one kill = 6.64 seconds.
Total gold for one kill = 153 - 612
Once again, we'll calculate 50 kills off of 1 coin dropping each time.
50 kills = 332 seconds ( 5 minutes and 32 seconds )
50 kills = 7,650g in 5 minutes and 32 seconds.

Results?

                   ===P2 Z4===                                                                                              ===P3 Z6===
50 kills = 95 seconds ( 1 minute 35 seconds )                                           50 kills = 332 seconds ( 5 minutes and 32 seconds )
50 kills = 3,250g in 1 minute and 35 seconds.                                           50 kills = 7,650g in 5 minutes and 32 seconds.

X3

150 kills = 285 seconds ( 4 minutes 45 seconds )   So you make more gold in less time idling in a zone you can one shot.
150 kills = 9,750g in 4 minutes and 45 seconds.

As for the experience the previous math more or less rolls over to show the exact same results.

In P2 Z4 I get 207 exp per kill. ( 1.9 seconds)  
X50  = 10,350 exp per 50 kills, in 1 minute 35 seconds.

X3

150 kills = 31,050 exp in 4 minutes and 45 seconds.

In P3 Z6 I get 579 exp per kill. ( 6.64 seconds )
X50 = 28,950 exp per 50 kills, in 5 minutes and 32 seconds.


Keep in mind I do have
51% Gold increase
8.25% HP Reduction
185 Auto damage
However, I don't think it would mess up the math.

I did a little test giving each of the three areas I tested 5 minutes of idle. I selected each area based off of the 25+ level bonus given for each area. I did not track gold drops....

My results:

lv 26 mobs = 43,300 total exp. gain
lv 51 mobs = 50,456 total exp. gain
lv 69 mobs = 46,640 total exp. gain

Level 26 mods I can easily one hit, level 51 takes about three hits and level 69 takes about ten.

Happy Hunting!!

It is better to kill higher level monsters, your critical and double attacks have no use on earlier enemies if you kill them in 1 hit. you can do about 15-25% more damage if you attack for longer periods of time instead of 1 hit per enemy. If you are fighting higher level enemies, do it in increments of 25 and to where you can receive trophy rewards for kills. highest level possible without manual clicking necessary. You want the timer to be at least 3+ seconds remaining when he is dead or sometimes you might not finish him off if you have bad luck on that round with crits and double attacks.

Lvl 51 I got 128,000Xp in 5 minutes with the event going on and 116,000 gold.
Lvl 76 I got 156,000 Xp in 5 minutes and 127,000 gold.
Lvl 101 I got 158,000 Xp in 5 minutes and 100,000 gold.

Gold is not very accurate since different amounts of coins can drop but then again so can the damage output lol. I usually just train on lvl 51 but might go to lvl 76 now.
