    You should be able to level daily until you're Lv. 70. The higher the level you are, the more coin you can make (unless you're doing things like farming hay). The Herc will enable you to keep a nice fast level speed along with culti completion..

    i maybe wrong.. i have a feeling that mobs closer to your lvl range drop more. altho higher lvl mobs give you more exp.

    If the formula on Pwdatabase is true, drop rate is the same for mobs your level and above. I would agree, consider that my current Lv 96 grinding mobs drop as well--if not better, though I suspect that's just because they have better individual rates--as stuff my level.

    So, I heard HA veno is the way to go? :3

    Humm - I've seen pwdatabase which claims that indeed things above you drop just as well, and another one which claims that they don't. Certainly killing foxwing supremes has a very high droprate.

    They die more slowly though, which does makes a difference.

    I didn't have a herc that early, so can't be certain what you can grind. Antelope pups for their hay (which sells for 8k-12k a pop to other players) might be a good option.

    You're not going to make a fortune though.

    well i'm pretty sure that as soon as ur u reach 40+ u should go into the cube room 4, it is the best place to lvl the herc. As for making money u should solo HH/TT when u reach lvl 60, sell the mats and get the money for it. Or if u want to just make weapons from the mats u get and sell them.

    What if you dont have enough time to solo TT? Is AOEs grindin with herc the only other way to make money?

    This is actually misleading. The only time I've seen AoE grinding with Herc being efficient is in Unicorn Forest on [?] mobs. Otherwise you could grind faster most of the time with a common pet (with skills) or a Nix.

    Aoe grinding with herc is just for the occasional kicks. Its not that efficient. Single mob grinding with herc/nix/most other pets is much more efficient.
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    At very low levels you'll not make mad money with anything. But you can grind for hay, which sells well.

    At slightly later levels you could charge tideborn to escort them through their mold quest (and have a chance at molds yourself)

    On the plus side - as a low level veno, you really don't have anything you need to spend money on yet.
