Neas Place or Swamp Camp?

The armor has 0 impact and 0 cut protection so protects as well as clothes do.

One thing I didnt mention is Swamp Camp was done at a non busy time (so less mob trains and other factors that lower sweat amounts)

Neas was done at a busy time, so the Ambus had plenty of targets which kept the number of deaths to a minimum.

The amount for 3 hours was remarkable similar for both.

This was just a small sample verdict and the results may be very different for a newer player.

One thing that doesnt get easier - those Ambus SCREECH! It's like a nail down a blackboard after a while.

Well, if the test results of your sweat gathering surprised you, maybe you should test the skill gains too.

You might be surprised how much bigger a skill gain from an ambu is, compared to those from an exa (or whatever).
Not that I ever tested this, but...

Skill gains whilst hunting an Ambu vs Exa would be much greater for the Ambu naturally. Skill gains received by an unprotected sweater being quickly killed in 2 hits from an Ambu dont seem to be as great as say 6-8 hits from a Daik/Combibo.

It's why I left Neas a year ago (along with the revive point being moved).

Incidentally - have the number sweat pulls gone up for Ambus since they had health upgraded? They seem to take longer to dry than I recall.

Did you ever test that?

(I don't mean the number of gains, but the total value of the skill gains)

I know 2 areas that are better... one actually has mobs that do not bite you. (and no im not talking birdies).

But if i had to choose: camp swamp, because I don't die that easy anymore.

I asked MA about 1 area which has mobs that do not bite you and they consider it an exploit (if its the same one you are talking about) and therefore dont go there.

I wont be naming it here or via PM for obvious reasons, MA should fix it.

Vedder - havent tested it.

swamp isn't bad cuz there is always ppl there healing and focusing , neas is good cuz when they aren't at swamp the ambu are always eating someone else and u can regenerate and keep on clicking ;D

stay in the swamp mega , at this point its ur home

Well i prefer Nea's,
since i die less times but i gain less evade tho...
well i have to go back to swamp camp a bit to try it out again

Between the two, Sweat Camp or Nea's, I choose Sweat Camp. I like to gain skills while I sweat, makes it worth while for me. Plus, I hate standing in one spot sweating, I like to run around and keep myself busy practicing my running-and-chatting-at-the-same-time skills.

However, I have a little spot where I like to sweat, I don't see many people and I can skill all by myself. I hate it when I am sweating a mob and a hunter comes along and feels he/she needs to shoot the one I am sweating! Like that one is better than the one 10m from me.
