I really want that rank reset. But leveling feels slow and sluggish. Is there a way to level up faster endgame?
HG 340, more or less, i think thats where most people grind out the last 20-30 levels or so.
Good with a party too, if you cant solo it
300 dungeon exp isn’t too bad if you can have some exp buffs, but it’s mostly about making a party and doing HG, yup. It’s much faster. Although I’d recommend doing it with as many exp buffs as possible if the party kills fast enough.
Quests don’t give enough exp cards so they’re not worth doing for exp only.
leveling to 360 is very easy,though, compared to the time spent on leveling to the cap in other games, e.g. Ragnarok Online. Depending on your build, it could take weeks to months.
Here you can make 1-2 levels per hour at least,depending on your equipment and AoE capabilities.
You also can do the new main quests and explore all new maps 100% for level 14 EXP cards to get some extra levels on the way. If that isn’t working and your character is undergeared, use the new events “Here comes…Santa?” and “New Year Wish Tree” in combination:
First you recieve the “Gift Box” by finding the Good Kid every day and giving it its present (details here).
Then you move it to the character you want to level via Team Storage.
You open it and choose the following reward:
EXP Tome (14 Days) x2 for a few days in a row (4 times so you can craft an 8x EXP tome).
After 4 days you start choosing the following reward:
Instanced Dungeon Multiply Token (14 Days) x2
until you have these two things, just go to the wishing tree every day(details here) and pray until you have both the EXP buff and the soup. Also,use a companion for extra boost if you have, and run the level 300 dungeon 3 times a day.
If you didn’t get the level up chest from the event notice board yet on the character (details here) go get it, it will provide you with some good EXP boosting items such as fortune cookies.
Once you got your multiply tokens and 8x EXP tome ready, use them on the level 300 dungeon(after getting all possible EXP boosts from wishing tree and seeds/statues used by other players in the city).
Note that on the first day when you actually use the 8x EXP tome, only use it shortly before the end (e.g. once the dungeon shows 100% clear rate) because you only get EXP when killing the boss, making it useless to start the Tome earlier& causing you to lose at least 1 day of 8x EXP.
Also note that if you chose to do it this way, don’t ever leave the towns/do Saalus with this character, otherwise you will waste away your 8x EXP Tome!!!
What I did:
- get your chest from the leveling up event – you will be able to open that chest every time you get a level for more leveling items (basically exp tomes, instance reset vouchers, goddess statues, multiply tokens… and of course cookies)
- I hope you saved all those juicy level 13-14 exp cards from before level 330, they will be valuable here; use the cards, each time you gain a level open the chest for the rewards, repeat until you’re out of cards (and out of rewards)
- buff yourself up the wazoo and do the level 300 dungeon (exp tome, miracle seeds, statue, cookies…), don’t forget you can speed up the process with multiply tokens and reset vouchers (I did like 30 runs in one day with all the rewards from the event cube)
- finish the quests for more level 13-14 exp cards, use them again
- when you’re out of dungeon runs and still got some exp buffs on you, find a good grinding spot that will give you good exp (I like Izolaciai plateau, which has a big area filled with juicy exp monsters right next to a warp statue)
After doing all that you should be around level 350, which means you can equip all those nice level 350 items that you could get from drops or all the silver you collected from those dungeon runs (check the market, cheap stuff can be bought if you didn’t find what you want yet). Now you should be correctly equipped for HG 340 raids…
