Completly dead Juperos Dungeon , as mentioned in the maintenance before that:
- Blue venatus take considerable more time that other mobs, (highly annoying and bad game feel)
- the basis Exp is way to low considering the equip needed
- please keep in mind i never had the chance to use the "broken" jupe, so this is in comparision to other maps like alarms, clocks, majo all of them give more exp with similiar equip without excessive useage on potions (tested with crit/GT sinx 85+ alarms and jupe are hopefully a good enough comparision ,roughly same exp ,roughly same hp pool , different mob density and different damage dealt... alarms mob desinity is way lower ,while still providing only slight smaller exp/h at least when the map is mostly empty whish results in a similiar mob densitiy for a single person)
Based on my experiences with Juperos, you could start soloing there as early as the 70s or even the 60s depending on your class, and having a tank and/or Priest for support could help you start there even earlier. Formless gear never really felt super necessary when I played in Juperos, and Venatus don't hit nearly as hard as some other monsters. Not counting the hunting board rewards, the exp from Venatus is about in line with stuff you'd fight in the 60s and 70s anyway - not as good as a few other monsters that have hunting board rewards (Majoruros especially), but if you don't have the right build or party setup for them, then Venatus can still be an option.
As for Blue Venatus taking longer to complete, I never checked where the Juperos hunting board is, but unless it's super far away or something, certain quests taking longer to complete shouldn't be too bad - turn in the others as a group and finish up Blues whenever you can. The Bio3 quests take different amounts of time to complete for a variety of reasons, just to give one example, so something like this isn't unheard of. I understand where you're coming from, since I still have urges to complete everything in a place at once before turning in lol, but I'd say it's not really the biggest issue out there.
