(Palinus/Nepzune/Unlocked Guide for LEGIT Gold Farming in Mabinogi WITHOUT Shadow Crystals)
(updated 2014-04-12 version 1)
note: CTRL+F is useful in long guides ;)

I WRITE THIS GUIDE BY OWN EXPERIENCE so dont take me granted.

There are 3 good shadow missions to do for Gold Grinding for like around 500k - 1,5m gold /hour
if you do like the instructions says that is. but if youre sure u got a better method, go with that
the missions would be as following

1. Battle for Tailteann II	(Solo)  (Gold 500k  /hour~) Rec Lvl: 3000
2. Conflict			(4 ppl) (Gold 1000k /hour~) Rec Lvl: 3000
3. Shadow Wizard		(8 ppl) (Gold 1200k+/hour~) Rec Lvl: 5000

lvl doesnt really matter, its what you ranked and how u play that matters~ just recommended for randoms
gold info above is average if u DONT use any luck titles/luck gear
note: HARDMODE missions + REMEMBER TO USE LUCK TITLES (unless you are too weak for that)
note: the recommended damage info is when UNBUFFED
implying someone will always buff with a 25% or better overture
imma try to keep this as short and understandable as possible.
i "only" spammed all these missions a "few hundred" of times, each, after all. with all kind of people
ranked everything but alchemy so this guide isn't too useless for you 100% ALCHEMISTS.

---------------------------------MISSION---------------------------------

1. Battle for Tailteann II (Solo)

GOLD: 17k + mob (around 30k+ in total)
TIME: 3 - 4 minute
INFO: 7 mob spawns + boss (5 - 10k hp mobs)

PLAYER1: Puppet+Bard 350+ dmg (500+ for guaranteed 1 hit)

preffered method: id max puppet (costs 1700 ap for master)
make sure u remember the path to avoid the ICE MINES when u run the mission the first few times
make sure to sing battlefield overture right after each spawn or each second spawn if u kill fast enuf
then id use crisis+climactic clash for each mob spawn same for boss if the mobs are gathered good enuf
if bad lag use a Nimbus pet or other stun pet after u used crisis and then release Climactic Crash.
if they dont die from climactic just use act4/wm
there are many other ways to run this *that requires more ranked talents* but cba explaining

---------------------------------MISSION---------------------------------

2. Conflict (4 ppl)

GOLD: 15k + mob (around 20k in total)
TIME: 30 - 50 sec
INFO: 1 spawn (20 - 50k hp mobs)

PLAYER1: Puppet + Fighter
PLAYER2: Mage + Fighter
PLAYER3: Fighter
PLAYER4: Fighter

Fighter: 500+ dmg (333 if ele reforge)
Mage   : 300+ magic atk
Melee  : 700+ dmg 8 pierce lvl lance (450 if ele reforge) swords works but add another 100 dmg

preffered method: before u enter sm it would be wise if someone uses "Battlefield Overture".
the puppet+mage go to rangers in the back and use the "Crisis+Blaze" method on them
while the fighters attack the enemies in the front, after the blaze is used everyone switch to fighter
and kill leftover mobs with fighter cause its the fastest 1vs1 on high HP mobs.

---------------------------------MISSION---------------------------------

3. Shadow Wizard (8 ppl)

GOLD: 35k + mob (around 55k+ in total)
TIME: 2 - 5 minute
INFO: 8 orbs (5 spawn /orb) (4 - 7k hp mobs)

PLAYER 1-8: PUPPEt/MAGE+bard(overture/lullaby) (really other talents works too AS LONG AS YOU 1 HIT SPAWNS)

Mage  : 400+ magic atk for mage *no reforge*
Puppet: 500+ max dmg for puppet *no reforge*
Ranged: 700 ranged max dmg + (Cs/Magnum+Cs Target+Cs Range+Ele lvl 5/6 REFORGES)
Melee : 700+ dmg 8 pierce lvl lance (450 if ele reforge) + 10 ice dragon/scooters
Gunner: 700+ max dmg *no reforge*

preffered method: this mission got in total 8 orbs and a party of 8 players will provide 1 player
for each orb thus leaving 5 spawn of mobs at same spot for each player.
mages spam Ice Spear/Fireball.
make sure u sing overture at good moments like after u lullabied mobs or if most things are dead.
Puppet just crisis+climactic crash or watever else that'll 1 hit mobs.
make sure to abuse stun pets (prefferably bone dragon to reduce prot/def) either class.
spamming lullaby each wave of mobs is wise too do as well to avoid multiaggroes+extra dmg.
fireball and ice spear 1 hits most of the time if u got decent damage same with climactic crash.
any other talent works too but much harder to get strong in.
if you plan to run with random party *cause almost impossible to find the right ppl for this*
id suggest you put lvl limit at 5000 total level :) (to have guaranteed good party)



I know alot I can do to improve the guide but effort ill do it sometime in the future
enjoy your gald
