Fathom Runs And Costs.

**largecommand** · 07-02-2013, 03:00 PM

Ok so right now I'm level 74. I'll be running Fathom Maze Runs till I'm 76. You are welcome to tag along, but I'm very fast and you might have a difficult time keeping up with me if you stop to fight. So I suggest you keep running with me.

Now if anyone has done this do you guys know the average cost in plat to do this?

**Zapoke** · 07-02-2013, 03:04 PM

I don't know about Fathom, but I did Magic Castle (when you could) and that took about 400 platinum just 75-76. It would cost a lot less if you had a 3x daily +4x exp, though. (All I had was 1.5 exp+ 4x exp + 2x weekly). I assume the exp gain would be roughly the same, though Magic Castle clears faster...

From 74-76 it would cost you about 400-600 plat depending on your speed and your party

How do you get xp at fathom? With the elixers?

Why magic castle? It has 3 diffrent routes leading up to a single path outside...weekly as in the 80 plat 7 day doubler?

At the beggining of the cap we were about 3-4 per run and everyone would take a path and meet up at the end and kill everythingy but they blocked xp gain cause too many of us exploited it

Because at the time there was a huge amount of people going for that Elite Egg, remember? I was always in a group of 5. We all cleared the 3 paths, then remade. It was about 400 exp per run, maybe more. I posted the exact numbers a while ago, but I dunno now. And yes, the 7 day double. It adds on to other elixirs.. I wanted 76 ASAP lol.

I wouldn't bother trying Magic Castle now. STS made it so you can't farm it for exp.

Nvm: Here's what it was at the time
Mega Maze (solo):
Elixirs
Thrasher
Blessing
2x Weekly
5-min access

Exp per 5 minutes (6x exp): 1200 exp
70-71: 7k
71-72: 8.6k
72-73: 10k
73-74: 11k
74-75: 14k
75-76: 100k
Total: 150.6k (approx)
150.6 / 1.2 = 125.5 5-minute elixirs • 5 = 627 plat. (only 5-min elix)
627 minutes / 60 = 10.45 hours.
11 thrashers • 40 plat = 440 plat

440+80+627=1,147 platinum in Mega Maze and 11 hours, if my math is correct.

Magic Castle (group):
Elixirs:
Thrasher
Blessing
2x Weekly
5-min access

Exp per 5 minutes (6x exp): 2500 exp
150.6k exp needed / 2500 = 61 5-minute elixirs • 5 = 305 plat
305 minutes / 60 = 5.08 hours.
5 thrashers • 40 plat = 200 plat

305 + 200 + 80 = 585 total plat and a bit more than 5 hours.

Thank you Zapoke

Would suprise me if it costs u 1.1k plat in maze I soloed there with 500..

From what level? And what was the EXP multiplier? There's a lot of things that can change the total. For example, having 3x daily and a 4x exp only reduces the cost of elixir per hour by half. It also reduces the amount of time by a bit as well (7x vs 6x). And if you start at a higher level, it reduces the cost quite a bit as well. And perhaps you go faster than I did on the map, that would change the amount of exp per 5 minutes. See what I mean?

Can't just take my calculations as written in stone.

Just change the variables I used to what you had.

Mark what exp you're at before you start a 5min pot, then mark what you have after. And there you go, easy to change the outcome to work for your speed.

It was thrasher and weeklong 2x :3 From 71-76

So it only took you about 4 hours then? Must've been running pretty quickly. =o

Not sure if it still exists, but there was/is a 1.3x extra stackable EXP boost for a full party group.
Might want to add that in for Magic Castle group run information.

Ah, right. I did forget about that. That would make them multiplier 7.3x compared to the 6x..
3,041 EXP per 5
150.6k/3.041 = 50 5 minute elixirs * 5 = 250 plat
250 minutes / 60 = 4.16 hours
5 thrashers * 40 = 200 plat
200 + 250 + 80 = 530 plat (Obviously most people would simply buy the 30 minute elixir (or less), not a full thrasher.. So less than that, even.)
