A few thoughts.....

Sounds is as good a strategy as any... If you wait at the zone for trains
you have 2 advantages and 1 disadvantage....

Some times people will hang out there to try and pick mobs off trains, so
you'll have some help (and some competition).
You'll be close to the zone line so if someone gets worked, they can escape
while the party still might have a chance.

But, you will also most likely have more mobs in the train at that point.


Suggestion... If you do this method, do not stop to loot. Anyone looting
will be run over before they can pick up the item. Enlist the help of
someone who's job is to just stand invisible, wait for the mob to die, and
the train to move off. Then, they can loot without any fear of dying.

Of course you all will be run over very fast by these trains. Trains that
include Mythi are bad.... Very very bad. You're looking at several 30+ mobs
as well as some under 30 mobs. You might have to try this a few times
before getting it down, and then I think it'll be luck that helps you. I
think you're better off going when it's crowded... Less mobs in train path
to be picked up. More chances of trains (as people get bored and get over
their heads fast and easy)

Suggestions all based on my experiences... Your milage may vary. : )

I left MM a few days ago after 3 deaths in 2 hours and proceeded to die 4
times in an hour in Permafrost. I went from a hair from 26 down to 3
bubbles away. What luck. : )
