Ice Spear Rafting -- 184 stars without any MP pots

Here's a long overdue video. Didn't post it at the time because I wanted to keep my elf secret. ^^

Total trip took 9 mins 30 secs. Video sped up 2x for better entertainment. =D

For elves, Ice Spear is extremely mp efficient for rafting. Each charge takes 13-14 mp (with -24% wand and -10% clothing). 2 charges pretty much guarantees kills on everything by the river.

This is also a pretty efficient way to get to level 42-43, exploration 19 in around 3 hours, while consuming very few mp pots. Just do back to back rafting trips, pay a visit to the mana tunnel, and make stops at every port to gain exploration exp.

Downside: once you get the hang of it, it gets boring fast. -_- But it beats searching for artifacts for 3 hours.

By the way, I'm back for a few days. Trying out g9 for fun. ^^

Hi there~ nice video :>

Do you happen to have any tips for where to stand on the rafting board? It always says "OUT OF RANGE" with IS and archers usually kill me first before its in-range :<

@rainysoshi It's tougher now without the double spawns in ch6 and 7. Back then it lagged more, making it easier to get ice spear off.

Nowadays, I try to spear an entire group of 4 each time I pass by. Works for archers and mage groups. Most of the time, I can get at least a couple jumpers before they can hop onto the raft. I also use bolt to finish off the magic ice shield users before shooting spear (it gets blocked otherwise). If all else fails, just play dead. =p

So, what's the tips for getting r1 ice spear? lol.

That being said, how long did it take for r1?

[bkungfoo]

@gorthjrod Ice spear is pretty easy to train. The AP requirement is the only hard part, so yeah you'll have to be patient.

I gained around 65 AP per week (lvl 50, explore 15, age 2-3 AP), and did the 2 rebirths every 3 weeks trick (1 paid, 1 free). So it probably took me close to 10 weeks to get. Rank 5 is good enough for turning it into your main skill though.

THis is a bit of an odd request, but do you still have the raw footage for this video? I'm working on a video that showcases mabinogi and need footage of players rafting and ballooning.
