  Why do you need to do rafting? If you're doing it for Exploration EXP then you're doing it wrong. I've tested it and Hot Air Ballooning is much quicker than Rafting. Ballooning on average takes me about 4 hours to get to 25 while rafting takes about 6, not including the breaks because of the time wasting docking of the raft and the last part of the raft. Ballooning is quicker because you can use Goddess Wing immediately once you get 10+ Big stars.
  
  If it's for items then I have nothing to say to that.

  Not everyone can do ballooning that well, or wants to sink AP in firebolt and time/money into a cc wand.

  I'm 100% sure it takes less ap to get r5 firebolt than r1 thunder.
  
  I hope they fix all the server sided lag I've been experiencing for the past 2 weeks.

  I think you're doing something wrong rafting then. It only takes 8:30 to complete a raft (skipping the last section by having a warrior kill you) and I get on average 8.1k Expl exp per raft, so it should be possible to get lvl 25 in 4 hours. For ballooning to do the same you'd have to spend 3 min per balloon and I'm not sure how feasible that is with the amount of time spent frozen and traveling. That being said I'll still test it out to see which one works better. Though rafting might win on the amount of normal exp you get while doing it.
  
  PS. Ballooing is allot more frustrating though, having your skill cancelled and being frozen and all....

  I hope they don't take it down too. I haven't been able to get on much to even get one lyre and I finally got 6 taming instruments. It'd really be like a kick in the gut if they took the event down now xD;;

  I raft for exploration, but I wouldn't mind a Dragon Boat Racing event. It's fun with guildmates.

  I dont get why they started doing there scheduled maintenance during the day and not during the night like before.
• Elena wrote on 2012-08-08 15:56
  They started doing this while people were still in school, and I guess they just kept going with it. I guess it's better for them to just be as awake as possible, or else...

  I guess it would be to save money, since you'd have to pay people over time to do it at night and there would be more staff to handle any emergencies.
