Why Tarkan Is S6's Most Contested Farm Map

Tarkan occupies a unique position in MU Online S6's progression ladder: it is the first genuinely difficult map that reliably drops complete level-5 sets with excellent options. Unlike Atlans (level-4 sets) and Icarus (mandatory flight), Tarkan balances accessibility with reward — provided you arrive prepared.

The map splits into Tarkan 1 and Tarkan 2, each with distinct difficulty, monster density, and drop quality. Understanding this division is the first step toward truly efficient farming.

Nota: Tarkan 2 requires passing through the portal in Tarkan 1 (approximate coordinates 228, 48). Without at least level 250 and adequate defense, mortality in Tarkan 2 is extremely high.

Class Builds for Tarkan Farming

Blade Master (Dark Knight) — Tank/DPS Build

The Blade Master in Tarkan relies on the Twisting Slash (AoE) and Rageful Blow combination to clear groups. The priority is survivability paired with enough damage to kill clusters of Kentauros and Mutants quickly.

Stat Distribution at Level 350:

STR: 300  → physical damage, equipment requirements
AGI: 150  → attack speed and defense
VIT: 200  → enough HP to absorb Mutant hits
ENE: minimum required (usually 25 base)

Recommended Equipment for Tarkan:

  • Weapon: Bone Blade +11+DD+Luck or Great Reign Crossbow +11 (ranged option)
  • Armor: Dark Phoenix Set +9+DD complete
  • Wings: Wing of Dragon +9 (DK L2 Wing)
  • Rings: Ring of Fire x2 or Ring of Ice x2
Dica: The Dark Phoenix Set reduces the cooldown of Rageful Blow. If you don't have the complete set, prioritize the Armor and Pants first — they provide the highest defense bonus per piece.

Duel Master (Magic Gladiator) — Hybrid Build

The MG is the most versatile class in Tarkan. Since MG has no first or second class quests, you reach your final form earlier and can split points between STR and ENE to use both physical and magical skills simultaneously.

Stat Distribution at Level 350:

STR: 250  → physical damage and weapon prerequisites
AGI: 100  → attack speed
VIT: 180  → survivability against Iron Rider
ENE: 220  → Lightning Attack and MG Twisting Slash damage

Skill Rotation in Tarkan 2:

1. Position yourself inside a cluster of Iron Riders
2. Twisting Slash (AoE physical) → eliminates 3-4 monsters per cast
3. Lightning Attack → focus on remaining high-HP monsters
4. Move to the next group while Twisting Slash recharges
Nota: The MG does not need a Level 1 Wing to progress to Duel Master — it goes directly to Wing of Storm (L2 Wing). This saves significant time and resources in early progression.

High Elf — AGI Archer Build for Tarkan

The High Elf with an AGI build uses Multishot and Infinity Arrow for long-range farming. The advantage is never entering melee range with monsters; the downside is the high mana cost of Infinity Arrow.

Stat Distribution at Level 350:

STR: 100  → minimum for Elf equipment
AGI: 450  → primary damage, speed, and evasion
VIT: 150  → base HP
ENE: minimum (30 base)

Recommended Spot for Elf in Tarkan 1: Position 85-115, 180-210 — dense cluster of Kentauros with minimal terrain irregularities. The Elf can attack from outside melee range and use Multishot to hit 3-4 monsters simultaneously.

Grand Master (Dark Wizard) — Full ENE Build

The Grand Master in Tarkan uses Evil Spirit and Drain Life as primary skills. With high ENE, Drain Life functions as passive healing against large groups.

Stat Distribution at Level 350:

STR: 30   → absolute minimum
AGI: 30   → absolute minimum
VIT: 150  → sufficient HP
ENE: everything else (~2,290 points at level 350)

Advanced Spots: Coordinates and Routines

Spot 1: Kentauros Cluster — Tarkan 1 (130, 95)

High concentration of Kentauros with fast respawn (~20 seconds). Ideal for AoE classes like DW and MG.

Farm Route:
→ Enter Tarkan 1 via portal from Lorencia/Noria
→ Walk to coordinates 130, 95
→ Clear group (8-12 Kentauros per cycle)
→ Move to 145, 85 while the group respawns
→ Return to 130, 95 — monsters have already respawned
→ Full cycle takes approximately 45 seconds

Estimated Drops per Hour:

  • 3-5 Jewels of Bless
  • 1-2 Excellent items (level 5)
  • 800,000 - 1,200,000 Zen

Spot 2: Iron Rider Corridor — Tarkan 2 (200, 165)

The corridor between coordinates 195-215, 155-175 has the highest Iron Rider density on the map. Only viable for characters with defense above 700 and HP above 3,500.

Mandatory Preparation:
→ Large or Superior HP Potions equipped (quick slot)
→ Full SD (Shield Defense) before entering the corridor
→ L2 Wing equipped (essential defense bonus)
→ Emergency movement skill mapped (Teleport for DW)
Farm Routine — Iron Rider Corridor:
→ Enter Tarkan 2 via portal from Tarkan 1
→ Follow east route to coordinate 200, 165
→ Attack group of 4-6 Iron Riders with AoE skill
→ Use HP potion if HP drops below 60% of maximum
→ Collect drops after each group dies (not during combat)
→ Repeat — Iron Rider respawn in ~35 seconds
Atenção: Do not attempt the Iron Rider Corridor without SD. Iron Riders deal damage that partially bypasses physical defense and will kill characters without Shield Defense in 3-4 hits, even with good armor equipped.

Spot 3: Kundun's Servant — Tarkan 2 (245, 200)

Kundun's Servants are concentrated in the northeast region of Tarkan 2. They are the highest XP monsters on the map (aside from Zaikan) and drop Temptation Set and Kantata Set pieces with reasonable frequency.

Minimum Build Recommended for This Spot:
- Level: 300+
- Defense: 850+
- HP: 4,500+
- Minimum skill damage: 1,200+

Ideal Party for Kundun's Servant:

Position 1 (DK/Blade Master): Front tank, use Rageful Blow
Position 2 (MG): Lateral DPS, Twisting Slash
Position 3 (High Elf): Buff Greater Defense + Greater Damage + Bless
Position 4 (DW/Grand Master): Evil Spirit as AoE support

Inventory Management and Efficiency Tips

Efficient Tarkan farming is not just about killing monsters fast — it is about maximizing the value of every item that drops.

Dica: Set a minimum item value threshold before starting each farm session. In Tarkan 2, ignore normal items (no golden/blue glow) below +7. Excellent items (golden glow) are always worth picking up — either for use or for Chaos Goblin crafting.

Drop Priority in Tarkan:

Priority 1: Excellent items with 2+ good options
Priority 2: Jewel of Soul, Jewel of Bless, Jewel of Life
Priority 3: Any item +9 or higher
Priority 4: +7/+8 pieces of high-level sets (Dark Phoenix, Venom Mist)
Skip: Normal items +0 to +6, cheap consumables

Session Time Optimization:

  • 2-3 hour sessions are more efficient than extended marathon sessions
  • Run Devil Square and Blood Castle in the gaps between farm sessions
  • Complete daily events before entering Tarkan (active XP bonuses help progression)
Nota: Tarkan 2 features a weather mechanic that affects visibility. During lightning storms (visual effect with flashing lights), some players report a slight increase in Excellent item drop rates — this is not officially confirmed but is a widely shared community observation.

Natural Progression After Mastering Tarkan

Once you farm Tarkan confidently and assemble a complete Excellent level 5-6 set, the natural next steps are:

  1. Aida — Stronger monsters, Bone and Legendary set drops with excellent options
  2. Karutan — Level-7 set drops, ideal for characters approaching level 380+
  3. Kanturu — Requires a specific quest, but drops Crystal Sword and Ring of Magic frequently
  4. Kalima — Maps 1-6 with escalating difficulty and unique drops including legendary set pieces

The transition from Tarkan to Aida should happen when you can clear Kundun's Servants without consuming potions regularly. That is the clearest signal that your build and equipment are ready for the next tier.

Perguntas frequentes

What is the minimum level to farm Tarkan efficiently?

Aim for at least level 280-300 with +9 or higher equipment. Below that, frequent deaths make the Zen and item income not worth your time.

Which Tarkan monsters drop the most rare items?

Tarkan 2 houses Zaikan, Kundun's Servant, and Iron Rider. Zaikan is the primary target, dropping the Temptation Set (Dark Knight) and Kantata Set (Elf). Iron Rider drops set pieces with excellent options at a higher rate than most other maps.

DK or MG: which is better for farming Tarkan?

For solo play, MG (Duel Master) has the edge by combining physical and magical damage, using Twisting Slash and Lightning Attack together, and having strong self-sustain. Blade Master pulls ahead in party play with the Vitality Increase buff.

Is it worth forming a party in Tarkan?

Yes — in a 4-5 player party with an Elf buffing, XP and drops per hour increase significantly. Ideal party: 1 Elf (buffer), 1-2 DK/MG (DPS), 1 DW/Summoner (AoE), 1 DL (CMD support).
