MapleStorySEA Post " Training Guide to 200 "

So I recently managed to get my Season 1 Burning Character to 200 few weeks ago.
Season 2 is about to start soon ( More Burning Characters training)
I started a thief because of the reward box obtained at lvl 190 (fafnir armour) and lv 200 (fafnir weapon).
The armour and weapon given will be based on the character's current job. In this case would be thief so I can easily PSOK the entire set to my main DualBlade once it is all prepared.
I have heard where before you hit the desired target lvl or claiming the box, you can switch classes to get the different weapon according to your class. (Only applicable for explorer class, Free job advancement system)
Where you would train to lv 199 as a nightlord, job transfer to shadower before hitting lv 200 to obtain a dagger instead of a claw.

Anyways, This post is just to share the training places that I took to hit lv 200 in a couple of days

Just to be clear, for every starting character that you want to train.
It is always important to take note of a few things
1) Link Skills
2) Equipment
3) Character Card
4) Experience multiplier (Link Skill, Character card, Exp Coupon)

Link skills are very important as they give a very big boast to your damage and training speed from the first half of the training where you would most probably be 1 or 2 shotting the mobs.
Since you would be training, You should move the approriate link skills according to your class.
All 12 links should be filled out (unless this is your first character of them all then you can just skip this step
Ayumilove's Link Skill Guide

Equipment is dependent on how prepared your gears are or how much mesos you are willing to spend on getting or making the gear you need.
You don't have to get high end gear for bossing and stuff. Just enough and manageable for you to train and not suffer

Character Card is also another crucial step for early level grinding but will also help out past lvl 100. Once again, if you are starting your FIRST character, you can just skip this step.
Adjust your character card according to  your job.
It is best to set at least all S rank class as I don't think everyone has 9 lv 200 Character for SS cards xD

Experience Multipliers will be costly. You increase the amount of experience you get from each kill per mob.
There are few multipliers that a free and would benefit you greatly if you have it during your training time
Zero Character Card
Mercedes Link Skill
Free 2x EXP coupon from Star Planet up to 1 hour
(depending on how many Star Points you get per day)
Event 2x EXP timings from the server (Doesn't stack with Star Planet EXP coupon)

For even more increased EXP multiplier, you can
Buy 2x EXP coupon from the Cash Shop
Buy other stackable EXP multiplier potions (Enjoyable Winter, Exp Accumulation Potion)
