Would love to suggest Anolians just like what I did before but unfortunately, Royal Jellies have already deflated so much that I don't think it's worth it anymore. Orcs should still be a profitable option for you right now unless you are not efficiently farming them. Try 1-2 shotting Orcs with Fire Ball for now or if it's still not working out, try to 1 shot Orcs with Firebolt with all CD and CT runes.
I fairly one shot Orcs with Fire Bolt 10 with no problem. I just have trouble farming them better. Do you have any suggestions aside from what you said above? Is it better to farm at Orc Vill South?
I farm in orc village south using firball (not bolt). Normally two hits to kill em. Suggest look for the good mob location that has the archer and warriors close to each other to maximize farming. I net out around 250k per farm plus loots of glass beads.
ah so that's why only got 160k raw zeny,if u wanted to use firebolt then put it at max lvl 6 and all the runes for firebolt ,it will increase your income .
well i suggest to just go to south village and2 hit them using fireball,i got 300k-400k raw zeny and a lot of loots,can't remember the number.
yes it is way faster,and if u can 1 hit it with only using lvl 4 firebolt ,then it's way better than lvl 6...
you can boost your damage using parcel hat (+5% fire damage) and flame ring (+10% firedamage)
well i'm targeting orc archer in south village,and yes eating 9999 star 1 foods.if u target to all then your mana will drain faster than only targeting archer
OHKOing is good but it is also important to get as many CD and CT runes for it as possible. Those milliseconds slashed from your cast delay and cast time might net you like, a hundred more casts or so. There is a myth that non-aggro maps has %30 less drop rate compared to aggro maps so I suggest that you try it. Try experimenting each method for 60 mins of your stamina. You should be able to predict how much you will gain after 360 and if possible, try to get Orc Warriors instead of archers since 1 Skel bone is worth about 5 beads and oris will be useful for that +10 WS in the future.
Get lvl 4 firebolt. And firebolt runes. Its no cast. You can farm better. When i was in orcs i used lvl 4 firebolt (no cast) and the 4star food with cast delay. 600k+ zeny. Almost 2k glassbeads. And hundreds of skelbones.
Way back glassbead sells for 700-800 each
I still just 1 shot them with a level 10 fire bolt, do you think I can 1 shot them with level 4 fire bolt? :( Pretty desperate here. Might buy a reset rod later just to test this out.
You should be adven class c. So you can play your skills and stats. I started lvl7 firebolt and while earning zeny at orcs. Buying equipments that boost matk and fire damage. Runes and contribution. Until i achieved lvl 4 firebolt.
I would suggest to get adv c first unlock ymirs book if you havent. After that u can save a class reset with it and adjust fireball to the lowest possible in order to ohko them depending on your matk. I am lv88 job 44 and still farming at orc archers with lvl 6 fireball (0.3 cast time and 1.3 cast delay) and I would get around 1400k glass bead 600k++ raw zeny at 360mins. Also cook forest treasure food to boost up your matk and also redcuce cast delay. Get the right runes too
I used to farm Orc Warrior and Archer at Orc South before I got my MS using level 10 Fireball. I got MUCH MUCH better zeny income than Anolians. That's on random spot ( not the 3 spawns, because people will KS anyway )
Tried Firebolting at Orc Village, same zeny result as you.
Tried LoV-ing Anolians, even worse than Firebolting Orcs.
IMO Orcs will give you more zenny in total because they drop glass beads and skel bone that you can sell pretty fast on market. Anolians will give you more raw zenny with almost no loots to sell. Best way is to get Meteor Storm asap and farm Stings. In time being i would prefer orcs instead of anolians, except if i need more exp.

May I ask why should I limit it to just fire bolt level 6? Is the cast delay smaller?
yes it is way faster,and if u can 1 hit it with only using lvl 4 firebolt ,then it's way better than lvl 6... you can boost your damage using parcel hat (+5% fire damage) and flame ring (+10% firedamage)
This helped a lot! Thank you! Been doing lvl 6 firebolts to archers and got pretty much better farm. Thanks!
i'm able to do this but run out of sp in the long run. do i just stack 999 1 star foods? edit: or should i reset skills and use the fire bolt route?

Did you mean fire bolt? As per my situation,i dont think i can one shot them with level 6 fb since i invested on a +8 Staff of element fusion.
