Abyss Help?

I need to know a bit more about the abysses.

Do you lose xp when killed by monsters and players?
Do you gain xp when killing players?
Are Clerics any good at soloing in the Abyss, against monsters and players?

Also, do you lose or gain xp when killed or killing players in Free Battle Zone?

If I remember clearly...

In abyss, you lose 1% if killed by a monster, 0.5% if killed by a player.
Killing players will not gain you exp.

Exp can't be gained or lost in FBZ.

Can't answer the one about clerics. ^^;

I don't think clerics are good to solo in abyss, against monsters or players...

They are pretty efficient at lower levels (if they're STR built) but as you get higher.. it's much faster to party with people. They can do it (since they're pretty sturdy with the heals), but it'll be slower than partying.

Then again, sparkcash items make anything and anyone good at killing, so yeah. I'm just assuming that the cleric doesn't have any SC on. xD

Mmm, pretty sure they wouldn't have changed this.

Monsters in the abyss generally have more Hp if a little less Def. than the mobs in normal maps. Due to the awkward placing of most mobs in the abyss + inherent lack of an AoE attack for Clerics (most Clerics) + lowest overall damage for the class, Clerics are generally not very good for soloing in an abyss. If your goal is xp, it's generally better to find an Archer and have them kite rooms, casting an occasional heal every now and then. Mages are also good for duoing, Fighters less so.

Wish I could play... T__T

I recall that if you get killed by a player in abyss you lose 0.2%...

As Ivra said, mobs in abyss seems to have more HP, although they do less dmg... but they also give more exp than a normal mob...

To solo as a cleric you'll need to go into an abyss that's higher than your level to actually gain benefits from it, I believe.. (like if you were level 50, then go into 60 or even 70...) but you need to watch out for PKers...

I was a lvl 7x cleric and I went into 9x abyss and the exp was decent enough.. but if I was in a level 7x abyss, I won't be surprised if I didnt even get 1% in an hr...

but of coz, the best wat to level in abyss is to find an archer or mage and AOE in your level abyss...
