[Meca Ranking] The hunting grounds of the Kalteon region in 'Sol: Enchant' are categorised by the tier of tokens dropped: Advanced, Rare, Heroic, and Legendary. As you climb the tiers, the difficulty spikes significantly, which is why most players are currently grinding in the Rare-tier zones, ranging from [28. Fairy Forest] to [42. Artaron Temple]. So, how do these Rare zones stack up? KookminTree has compiled a comprehensive breakdown of every single one.

Q. Which hunting grounds do you recommend the most?
A. We recommend the Cursed Mountains, Artaron Temple, Undead Forest, and the Cursed Forest.

Among the Rare zones, the undisputed champions are [39. Cursed Mountains | LV.46] and [32. Undead Ruins | LV.41]. They offer massive EXP and Nine yields, with a slim chance of dropping Equipment Enchant Scrolls (Divine). Plus, since the mobs are Undead, players wielding weapons with Undead-bonus damage will find them incredibly efficient. Since all the mobs are melee-based, the entry barrier is delightfully low.

The catch? Everyone already knows this. These spots are so packed that 'kill stealing' is rampant, which effectively nerfs your efficiency. Knights, in particular, often find themselves struggling to land even a single hit before a mob is swiped away. In some servers, these areas are even 'controlled' by top players, making them a headache to access.

If you want to avoid the crowds, [42. Artaron Temple 1~3F | LV.45] is your next best bet. It’s a dungeon-style zone, and its sheer size means you’ll rarely be fighting over a spawn point. It’s also the only place where you can snag Normal Rune Boxes. If you’re feeling lucky, there’s a low-drop-rate chance at Heroic-grade accessories like the Ancient Magic Ring and Ancient Magic Earring.

However, Artaron Temple is stingy with Nine. Generally, the more lucrative the potential drops, the lower the Nine yield. If stacking Nine is your top priority, you should stick to [28. Fairy Forest, 29. Fairy Spring | LV.40] or [31. Undead Forest | LV.41]. If you want a balance of Nine and EXP, Undead Forest is the sweet spot.

Finally, if your server has a high market price for intermediate materials, look no further than [38. Cursed Forest | LV.45]. While the raw EXP and Nine might lag behind the popular spots, it compensates by dropping plenty of Intermediate Material Selection Boxes. You can convert these into intermediate gems or iron and flip them on the exchange for a tidy sum of Diamonds. Here is the full breakdown of all Rare-tier hunting grounds.
