Okay... herding from zero to GM in 75 minutes:
This was using the KR client, no macroing and no key-mashing (KR won't let you press and hold a macro key). The trick that took me nearly 20 minutes to figure out is you don't actually have to tell your target where to walk to. You can easily cut 20 minutes or more off my time, and do it under an hour. These are actual times using the game timer built into the KR-BBE user interface, so they are real.
Here is what I did:
0 - 28.1 skill : bought from Rancher outside Brit farms
28.1 - 30.0 : Sheep in New Haven - got bored and left - 5 mins
30.0 - 45.0 : Cows outside Delucia - got bored and left - 14 mins
45.0 - 70.0 : Great Harts east of Delucia - got bored and left - 10 mins
70.0 - 75.0 : White Wolves on Dagger Isle - not gaining fast enough - 3 mins
75.0 - 82.5 : Bulls outside Delucia - not gaining fast enough - 9 mins
82.5 - 90.0 : Drakes south of Ilsh. Compassion gate - 12 mins
90.0 - 93.0 : Dragons west of Ilsh. Valor - not gaining fast enough - 7 mins
93.0 - 100.0: Greater Dragons west of Ilsh. Valor gate - 15 mins
Also found out you can't herd paragon greater dragons - dang
You get the message, "That wasn't even challenging" if the target is too easy.
NOW, need a few minutes to rest my fingers and look for a challenge... stealth mage/thief and now GM Shepherd!
