Make Ore Downgrading easier..

[Merellis]

.... But your killing the Sleepers to gain the zeny, and to gain the exp.

I mean, sleeper farming is easy. OI spam, take some sp items, or steal SP from other monsters, go back to town when too much weight. Vend the cards, vend/OC the daggers, and breakdown the Ores to gain a ton of zeny.

If you want to avoid the whole breaking down ordeal, you could even vend them, or just avoid sleepers and attack other things and hope high priced items dropped, at a lower %.

The reason Sleeper Farming is so damn profitable is because the NPC exists and because an OI monk can 1 shot with the right gear and gain a ton of GN to break.

Why not just farm all week and plan a single session of pure ore breaking, or get friends to help by trading them some and getting them back?
