quote from somewhere:
I am a level 115 ranger, and I get 8-9% an hour at Lethal Squid parties. That's, 1,700,000 (one point seven MILLION) experience per hour. This is godly compared to the 5-6% an hour in Viking parties and 6-7% an hour at grims (while using 10,000,000 mesos in potions per level, that is).First I am going to explain how to split the map in a 5 attacker, 1 priest party.

Lane #1 (top)-

Suggested attackers here-
Ice mages, because they can hit all of the platforms from the top (correct me if I'm wrong), and any other class can do well here as long as they can swim to the side and attack them from a distant area, and warriors do fine in any position here.
Lane #2-

Suggested attackers here-
Dragon knights (and other warriors as well), as all of the lethal squids bunch up together at this platform which yields amazing results for both polearm and spear dragon knights. Also, I think that Hermits could also use avenger here to yield similar results, as well as Fire Mages being able to effectively take on this platform due to Posion Mist.
Lane #3 (middle)-

Suggested attackers here-
Ice mages do well here, along with bowmen, because of their ability to hit multiple platforms. However Hermits can take this platform, so long they swim away from the squids and attack them from there.
Lane #4-

Suggested attackers here-
Bowmen, Hermits, and Ice Mages do excellently here, because Bowmen and Hermits can snipe them while Ice Mages can attack all of them.
Lane #5 (bottom)-

Suggested attackers here-
Warriors, Hermits, and Ice Mages do well here. They just have to remember to go up and clear the platforms that are directly above them.
Now, 4 attacker parties are not much different (at all, really) as all you have to do is combine lane #1 and lane #2 to combine it into "lane #1b"

I borrowed this from party central, GoogleSearch's (aka PawtucketPat) post, so please credit him and address all SQPT questions regarding this mini guide to him. I will be forming my own SQPT party down the road, so I will not withhold my opinions on exp and best party make-up until later
