Hello again, I had to make a new grinding video again, I hope you enjoy it. I might make a new video of the same file but add a certain effect called "colorizing" available on Windows Media Player-- it erases all normal colors (other than white and black) and changes them so that every 10 seconds or so everything becomes a new color, changing like a rainbow. I call it the Stoner Effect.
Clicky :-) (http://files.filefront.com/DVGrind_0002wmv/;4889480;;/fileinfo.html )

In this video I’m doing my usual grind in the DV— although if I don’t have buffs, I usually chug a magic haste pot and two-shot shackles and non-warriors a room back. In this case, you’ll see I’m able to two-shot mobs without the Boxer’s extra damage—so why summon him in the first place?—
With full buffs, I was already nuking without the summon to begin with. When I used up 3/4ths of my mana, I summoned the Boxer, we did my mutual recharge macro a few times as we killed mobs and then I just decided to start frapsing. I still had my buffs, so I could afford to make mistakes in order to increase killspeed. You’ll note in the video I am often clumsy with targeting mobs or clicking my toolbar. And to anyone who hasn’t seen my first video, you’ll already know that rather than place summon commands on my toolbar, I leave that window open for other commands, and use my mouse for everything but F1-F4. Oh, and I set up my toolbar so that's its on the top-- I thought that was so cool when I saw Ehli's vids I had to to try it. Now I'm addicted
Technique- You’ll note in this video I often attack multiple mobs at a time—I actually don’t have the Boxer killing very many mobs itself. It deals as much damage without killing the mob—that way I can get the most exp out of an overhit.
In many cases, I have someone who is Empowering me—So I’d start nuking and when my mana got low, I’d summon the Boxer and we’d continue as shown. But I’d work slower—I’d nuke a little bit less and have the Boxer deal more damage. I’d also have it recharge me more often—so when I finally had full mana, I’d send it on a death trip or just Unsummon it and continue nuking until my mana got low again. No downtime—just 70% of normal exp when any other nuker would be “sitting.”
As for the Weapon, the Soulfire Dirk is a 2x Cbsps consumption weapon, meaning I spend somewhere around 436 adena per mob, and gain anywhere from 600-1100 per mob with a 70% chance of dropping, allow me, most of the time, to either breakeven or gain a money. I’m still losing money in the end though—D crystal costs ><. I go the cheap path—I’m amazed how I’ll maintain good $$$ when I stop nuking. I think I’ll get the mana up or magic root SA for the Dirk when I get off my lazy butt a level a crystal to 6.
