My leveling guide has an emphasis on questing rather than dungeon grinding. It also is written for natural progression—completing content intended for your level range rather than much higher, and completing that content within your own means rather than using extremely powerful hand-me-downs and buff bots. This guide does not totally ignore the fact the higher levels help lower levels, as that is what the patron-vassal relationship is all about. But it also does assumes that your patron won't always be there to help, and that they are not necessarily a max level character who can provide you with everything you'd possibly need.

Welcome to An Adventurer's leveling guide. My guide has an emphasis on questing, completing content intended for your level range, and completing that content within your own means. This means that my guide assumes you are not using buff bots, top-end tinkered equipment, or have a high level helping you complete everything. This is not a guide that simply tells you where to farm for the highest exp. If you enjoy being self-sufficient, questing solo or in small groups, and are more interested in exploring and having a fun time rather than grinding in dungeons, this guide is for you.
* Healers in [[Holtburg]], [[Sanamar]], [[Shoushi]], and [[Yaraq]] sell level 1 - 4 [[Attribute]] buffs. Look under "Services".
* The Lugian merchants in Holtburg, Shoushi, and Yaraq sell special protection gems. When used, these gems cast spells equal to level 3s for the 7 elemental protections and the natural armor spell.
* The [[Exploration Society Letters]] quest provides an excellent suit of armor, jewelry, weapons, and a shield for low levels. This quest is restricted to levels 1 - 20.


=== How to use this guide ===
Quests are broken up into level ranges. I have placed them based on the following criteria:
* Level restriction - If a quest has a level restriction, it is going to be placed on the page where its level restriction falls (if not higher)
* Difficulty / Level recommendation - If a quest has no level restriction, or is much more difficult than its restriction, it will be placed in the lowest level range that seems appropriate
* Experience rewards - A lot of quests use a percentage to next level with a cap as their reward. For lower levels especially, quests will generally be placed in the range where they reach their cap. This ensures that you will be getting the most out of the reward.
* Equipment rewards - If a quest's equipment reward is particularly useful at a certain level range, it may be placed there even if the experience reward is low or not near its maximum value.


Complete the [[Training Academy Quest]] (or skip it by speaking with [[Jonathan]]) to reach level 5.

<br>When you finish the Facility Hub Quests, you will still probably be a few levels short of 50. Here are a few options to reach 50:

* Speak with Shoichi at 54.4S 72.9E in Lin. This flags you for the 500 count [[Tusker Guard]] kill task which rewards you with 20,000,000xp upon completion. This quest can be completed in the [[Tusker Barracks]] (which you can access via the [[Facility Hub]]) or in any of the three [[Black Spawn Den]]s (which you can access via the [[Black Spawn Den Portal Device]] if your allegiance mansion has one).
* Spend some time in a popular hunting dungeon. Some options are: [[Phyntos Menace]], [[Matron Hive North]], [[Matron Hive South]], [[Olthoi Arcade]], [[Dungeon Nye]], and [[Mite Maze]].

An Adventurer's Leveling Guide


A diligent adventurer lays steel to his monstrous foe, and as it topples, a rising hum suffuses the air. A rainbow-hued nebula swirls all about, and cascades upward, then fragments and dissolves as the hum itself breaks in a fading tinkle as of distant chimes.

Introduction

Welcome to An Adventurer's leveling guide. My guide has an emphasis on questing, completing content intended for your level range, and completing that content within your own means. This means that my guide assumes you are not using buff bots, top-end tinkered equipment, or have a high level helping you complete everything. This is not a guide that simply tells you where to farm for the highest exp. If you enjoy being self-sufficient, questing solo or in small groups, and are more interested in exploring and having a fun time rather than grinding in dungeons, this guide is for you.

How to use this guide

Quests are broken up into level ranges. I have placed them based on the following criteria:

  • Level restriction - If a quest has a level restriction, it is going to be placed on the page where its level restriction falls (if not higher)
  • Difficulty / Level recommendation - If a quest has no level restriction, or is much more difficult than its restriction, it will be placed in the lowest level range that seems appropriate
  • Experience rewards - A lot of quests use a percentage to next level with a cap as their reward. For lower levels especially, quests will generally be placed in the range where they reach their cap. This ensures that you will be getting the most out of the reward.
  • Equipment rewards - If a quest's equipment reward is particularly useful at a certain level range, it may be placed there even if the experience reward is low or not near its maximum value.
