I am Elder Druid. My friend has both - Elite Knight and Royal Paladin? Which vocation should he choose to have better result (I mean exp/h) on Falcon Bastion?

Comments

Level of EK and RP?

---

Both mid levels, RP ~550, EK 600+.

Answer 1

In my opinion better is EK on falcon bastion because:

1) EK has exeta, especialy when you hunt bastion, not falcon,

2) EK has element weapon (falcons are strong for psychical dmg),

3) EK can use shield, has better protection.

Anyway exp should be very similar but for druid hunt with ek is easier and more comfortable.

Answer 2

Okay, I checked it on my own and now I have to share my experience.

First of all I think that hunting whole bastion is uncomfortable, worth to consider it only when we want to kill bosses at once. So let's move to "falcon" cave.

Exeta there is useless. Druid need to use 2 wild growth runes then everything goes on EK. We did 4-5 lures. Both had to lure falcons to make it as fast as possible. Unfortunately monsters are such slow, that it was impossible to not be irritated :P Falcons which were as first next to the EK died when last falcons just came to him. While hunting with RP we don't have this problem. We kill monsters running with them. Comparing RP to EK - falcons would die with RP earlier than came to the EK (and ek could start hit them).

EK has element weapon, but RP has arrows, mas san and runes. Sounds better!

EK has better protection. RP doesn't need as good protection, since he is running with the mosnters around the cave.

To sum up I think that better exp we can make with Royal Paladin, because we don't waste our time on luring falcons to make packs. No matter if RP has some levels less than EK. The style of hunting bastion with RP is simply more effective.

I think that it's worth to hunt there ED+EK on a mid lvls 400-500 but the higher level, the better is to go there solo or in duo but with ED+MS or ED+RP.
