Newtie mini dungeon was useless, just as many other mini dungeons were. I think they released a better training spot before the release of mini dungeons so no one would be at Newties. Skele mini dungeon was just as bad, and a bad argument for xparasite. Archers and thieves had no chance there unless they were training with a DK, level 150+, or HP washed because otherwise they'd 1hit you.

xparasite is just using any argument he can, despite being contradictory to the rest of the other arguments he has used. Just the previous post talks about classes being necessary and a way to socialize and then this talks about mini dungeon that for me ruined social aspect. After they were released I couldn't find Newtie/Skele parties anymore at ch1, I didn't meet new people and after a couple of months I had my first prolonged break because the game got boring.

I'll have to agree with parasite here. Although dependency is something normally frowned upon, it did force a social level aspect in training, rather than all classes being the jack of all trades. Skelegon/newtie mini dungeons were the best of the best for at least 6 months during their release, predominately the summer of 2010. It certainly was less stressful for me. I will digress that in-town recruitments were sociable, but really all the people who genuinely wanted to train migrated to the entrance of the mini dungeon rather than the town. That aspect didn't change as much and it was finally refreshing you could avoid ks wars.

For me personally 2009-2010 was the best time of the game for me, not 2006-2008, which by far was the worst.
