You are in your 3rd class now. This bracket is where ArionRO's pacing feels most deliberate -- a 5x rate still makes these levels take effort. The maps below have the best EXP-per-hour for this range.
💡Run the Bangungot Hospital instance () every 20 hours once you hit Base Level 100. It gives 500,000 base EXP for about an hour of work and a party. Also check the Geffen Magic Tournament instance if you want a fun solo bonus.
Spot 1: Ruins of Juperos (Venatu and Apocalypse)
Map 1: -- Venatu
Map 2: -- Venatu and Apocalypse
To reach Juperos, travel to Juno and find the cave entrance east of the city. You need the Juperos Key to pass certain doors (dropped by monsters inside or purchasable from players).
Monsters on F1:
- Venatu (Venatu, Neutral) -- Level 113, Neutral element. 70 on the map.
- Venatu (Venatu, Wind) -- Level 113, Wind element. 70 on the map.
- Venatu (Venatu, Earth) -- Level 113, Earth element. 70 on the map.
- Venatu (Venatu, Water) -- Level 113, Water element. 50 on the map.
Monsters on F2:
- Apocalypse (Apocalypse) -- Level 121, Neutral element. 70 on this map. Higher EXP than Venatu.
- Venatu (Venatu, Neutral) -- 65 additional on F2.
Why it is good: Juperos floors are compact with high density. The Venatu types cover every element, so Neutral damage (skills like Asura Strike, Bash, or Sonic Blow) does consistent damage on every target. Apocalypse on F2 gives the best EXP here.
Class note: Sura with Asura Strike, Rune Knights with Bowling Bash, and Warlocks with neutral-element Stasis do well. Bring Potions -- Juperos monsters hit hard.
Spot 2: Cursed Monastery (Zombie Slaughter and Banshee)
Map 1: -- Zombie Slaughter
Map 2: -- Banshee and Ragged Zombie
Reach the Cursed Monastery by taking the road east of Prontera through Glast Heim fields. The monastery is north-east of Glast Heim.
Monsters on abbey02:
- Zombie Slaughter (Zombie Slaughter) -- Level 124, Undead element. 210 on this map. Very high density. Best EXP on F2.
- Ragged Zombie (Ragged Zombie) -- Level 123, Undead element. 70 on the map.
- Flame Skull (Flame Skull) -- Level 121, Ghost element. 21 on the map.
Monsters on abbey01:
- Banshee (Banshee) -- Level 130, Dark element. 96 on this map. Best EXP on F1.
- Ragged Zombie (Ragged Zombie) -- Level 123, Undead element. 34 on the map.
- Zombie Slaughter (Zombie Slaughter) -- Level 124, Undead element. 30 on the map.
Why it is good: Abbey F2 has 210 Zombie Slaughters, the highest single-type spawn count in this bracket. All Undead here take double damage from Holy. Arch Bishops with Magnus Exorcismus can clear entire rooms. Banshees on F1 give high EXP but are Dark element.
âš ï¸Flame Skulls are Ghost element. Neutral physical attacks cannot hit them. Use Holy or Ghost-element attacks, or just skip them.
Class note: Arch Bishops dominate Abbey with Magnus Exorcismus. High Priests and Priests can still grind here effectively. Other jobs need Holy-element weapons or the EXP rate drops significantly.
Spot 3: Splendide Field (Naga and Cornus)
Map:
South-west of Juno. Take the airship to Juno then walk south to the Schwarzwald Research Base, then south-west into Splendide.
Monsters here:
- Naga (Naga) -- Level 117, Earth element. 42 on this map. Drops Manuk Coins used for crafting.
- Cornus (Cornus) -- Level 120, Holy element. 52 on the map. Drops Splendide Coins.
- Luciola Vespa (Luciola Vespa) -- Level 109, Wind element. 74 on the map. Insect type.
Why it is good: This map gives three solid monster types all within 10 levels of each other. The coin drops (Manuk and Splendide) have real value for crafting equipment.
Class note: All third class jobs can manage here. Warlock Stasis or Sura Triple Blows do well on the mixed element spread.
