Going to go try this with my LS. Would be funny as hell if SE nerfed it.

Kinda cool lol. Going from like, 12-20 in a sitting is always awesome.

I honestly don't see how its that much hassle.

Having that many SMNs is a hassle, it's a dead job

might wanna clean the sand out of your vag there.

the reason it wasn't exploited pre-levelsync update was because you usually couldn't be assed enough to find 6 level 10 smn, now you only need 1, its now easier to do, and once done makes a nice 1-shot to give buffer, or a merit point or two.

[Tsuko_Asura]

Hell, you don't even need a level 10 Summoner if its that much of a problem. The EXP-cut form adding one random level 10 person wouldn't be all that significant, and you hardly need six Summoners to get the job done.

am i the only one envisioning a market for that 6th slot?

[Tubbers]

This isn't really new... it just got killed after the MPK nerf because mobs would despawn after they killed your avatar. I leveled SMN from 1-36 or so like this with Rikura.

I might wanna try this with a few bored LS buddies.

Heh, that was the first thing that came to mind. I was thinking it'd also be nice to make this an LS event since SMN can be crappy to exp and yet be a great DD at events.

Do you know what would do diamond dust from a level 6 smn on mobs level 15?

Giddeus seems like the best for this exploit if you can find a good level who : 1 let you get almost max exp on every mobs (range 11-17, obviously you want level 13 and more to give you max exp) and 2 that three astral flows kill them all. Dunno if it's doable.

friend of mine said hey, I posted in the endgame forum on QCDN (a very reputable downgrade of alla) and it described this

1 hour later and 1 successful COR recharge later I was up 6-8k back to back emperor bands usede but 2nd not completed -- was forced to merit (to complete remaining bonus left on 2nd ring) due to other smns going late, my avatar dying and me generally getting swarmed after

also our train maker was getting adds pulled off by some random dbag -ga killing the mobs -- who does that? I mean really


anyway, waste of time, will never do again, I'd rather merit or sit in whitegate doing nothing; a far cry from the GUARANTEED 12-20K+ IN 60 SECONDS

I think he was exaggerating about the 60 mobs. Getting that many mobs together takes a really long time.

EDIT:
Lycopodiums might work well as they go along with you willingly. Also, I was thinking that if you pull mobs with blind/para/slow, you can have your smn pt ready near zone and zone before they AF so the mobs deaggro and they get full exp since they didn't take any damage. This could still be good if you had 2-3 pullers let each of them get 20 mobs, that's way more doable.

Anyone who thinks you're trainfarming, most likely. :D

What a hassle!
By the time you get 6 SMN geared up and ready to go, and you walk out to Bubu or Delkfutts, AND by the time you get a SEVENTH member, you could have already been making xp elsewhere at a more consistent steady rate. Only allakazham could crap out a strategy like this.

[DaGod]

Except if, you know, you make it a static with 5 other buddies of your ls. Can do this 4 or 5 time a week for great output. Just rotate the roles. You don't need the 6th in and another out to pull ; one of you each time be the puller, one the level sync man, one the leech, three being smn. You change roles for a second run. You can do this in 1 hour, netting you 20 000 * 2 = 40k in the hour. For sure, you substract 1/6th for the time you pull, adn 1/6th is on a low level job. Still great if you manage to plan it well.

[Kainsin]

Hmm, interesting. I have a couple rl friends and between us we have 3 main and 3 alternate accounts. I wonder how long it'd take to kill the syncee back down to level 10 after each round.

[Glori]

This is nothing new. And you dont need 6 smn or whatever to do it. I lvl'ed smn to using this method, 2box-trained mobs around brought them all together and astral flowed. Biggest problem is alot of the mobs will despawn if they arent killed by first AF. So I can see bringing 2-3 smn would make it easier. The other little problem is when you lvl up, it resets the XP chain, so all 60 mobs wont add to the chain.

POIDH?
