Well, if you're not going to train them until L17, there's not much left to do it with, maybe go back to the monastery and let some Metallic Slimes shoot at you for a few hours (days in game)
Or try to spawn some Winged Serpents, they stand back and shoot a lot. I don't think the nice shooty mosquitoes go up that high, so the swamp would probably only get you a bunch of Oozites and 'Mares. Oozites might help a bit though, they're good for caster practise, too.

I remember my favorite training session was with two groups of Millipedes that i dragged together in Marten's Bluff, but i was L13/14 for that.

By the way, Why Iron Skin???

If your Bard has a lot of points in Throw, that's good for Bombs and Dusts. A Wrist Rocket with good stones is nice. But if your Throw is low, and you're low enough level that switching would be worth it, the 3X Xbows are very deadly, even with Hunter Quarrels. And maybe that's a good reason to have maxxed Vit--they suck up Stamina like mad.
