Ok today I learned of a new idea.

I thought, find someone who cant solo TT for mats, ask them to sponsor you a sub, and split the drops.

Easy as that, we both made about 400k after some mat collecting and a while in tt 1-1.

So there, make some veno friends, contract a deal, 50-50, 65-45, 60-40 whatever. And make some cash.

    On my server (HT) some of my guildmate Venos will go on a TT run with a cleric, DD, or both. You get 1 person to join you to make squad mode and you just run a 2 or 3 man run, more drops for all. Only issue is that it almost always requires a Herc, and there aren't enough Venos with hercs to go around. Otherwise, it's a great idea.

    That's what I do. I tried that today but the cleric was afriad of dying a lot so he left after the first boss in 1-3 squad. Made me do the rest on my own, took hours but I did it without dying once.b:victory

    thats not quite true o_o. I do 1-1 and 1-2 with a golem and shaodu cub and they tank it just fine lol. Im refering to solo mode, and letting the veno run it alone. Of course itd take a deal of trust between the co op'ing parties, but its worked rather well so far.

    I'm having trouble believing the average "awesome solo class who can make tons of money" Veno would be willing to split several hundred thousand in drops with us dirty peasants just because we happen to give them an ultsub. XD

    I mean, if you wanna do a run for me sure, I'd be more than happy to consider it. I just don't know why you would, y'know?

    On a mostly unrelated note, anybody feel like taking a TT newb on a run of some kind? I don't care which (although anything with Soulgatherer's Tentacles would be nice, I'm not holding my breath), just something which doesn't require ultsubs to get into.

    Most venos do TT party mode alone with hercules and dont really need any help beside maybe a cleric if boss aoe. I know i have a Hercules myself and dont need any party beside to open at lower lvl TT. Doubt many venos will split loot 50/50 for a tiny sub just to be nice - when they actually DONT need help at all.
    People dont just give away stuff in MMOs to be nice in my experience, they're often greedy with loot and wanna make as much money as possible.
    Well unless the veno really wants company in TT or feels like doing some charity for a good friend that dont have money.

    That has nothing to do with it. If you want to know though, I got 4 chins plates, 3 tough shard of gold armor, 3 ancient serpents blood and 1 ancient serpent orb. I was the only one in the freaking dungeon.b:victory

    This is one of the reasons I freaking hate Veno's.b:cry

    Would be nice if the Dev's would give other classes the means to solo dungeons like this and do so reasonably without spending more coin per run then you get out of it.

    Yup veno's get on my nerves, BUT today i got to take out some of that hatred towards them.

    I was doing the cube and hit the jail room, inside was an archer in one corner and a veno in the other, i thought to myself "I am NOT gonna let this veno complete the cube aswell as being able to solo TT for lots of money"
    So i said in local chat "Ah, a veno, i'mma keeeel you" and i pk'ed her with a huge grin on my face. b:shy

    Nah its squad mode tt she's doing,and it shouldn't be allowed,herc should be unsummonable in squad mode period,love my veno but able to solo the squad modes bar a few bosses here and there for such ridiculous sums of money is just plain wrong O.O

    TT-SOLO for solo
    TT-SQUAD for squads

    After messing around in 1-3 squad, I realized something. The hercules was put in the game just to tank TT!

    Think about it. Pets don't have that damage reduction players do. The hercules has some insane defense that allows it to tank, and the brambles it has makes the bosses hit themselves really hard. Plus the skills a veno has to keep their mp up and bramble hood. It would seem to me that the veno class and pet are actually designed for the purpose of soloing TT in squad mode.

    For what purpose?To ultimately destroy prices on the mats gained only from squad mode thus making no other class go in there at all anymore to try and make some money for themselves?

    If it is then good job devs,its doing it admirably.

    *No one can say there isn't enough venos with herc to affect that kind of a change on squad mats,there are sht loads on HT :P

    Or u can make a veno yourself and solo dungeons and get rich...venos lvl pretty fast u know. U can get lvl 60 in like 2 weeks without spending to much time. And the 20 mil u spend on the hercules u get back pretty fast 70+

    Since developers only give one class this option i suggest everyone takes advantage of it and roll a veno asap. Its easier and faster than trying to make developers give every class the option of getting rich lol
