Currently, you cannot gain experience from hunting Azaals until 250.
While theoretically there are many places for mages to hunt until level 250, the only one that really makes sense and gets any use is the Fog Giants, which is where most mages will spend over 100 levels (or, at least when Spiders cease to be worthwhile).
I humbly request that the Azaal area be open to hunters of level 225 and above, which will introduce more players to the area. I have personally been asked on numerous occasions to join hunting parties there but given there is no reward, I am not motivated to join them.
Azaals
Re: Azaals
I don't disagree with your suggestion to extend the experience generated by this area to 225+, especially given the decreased wealth generation potential for this area.
However, I will suggest that after awhile at Fog Giants, most magic users tend to head to dinosaurs for a bit.
