Help! Grinding 160+ & Quests

General Discussion
#1

So I did searches about this topic and have read the levelling guides and still left with the following questions.

I started Demon Prison 2F when I was 149 (but only after consuming a good amount of my level 7 cards). I have stockpiled around ~40m (not sure) in terms of cards atm.

My questions are,

  1. I see many threads and guides grouping 160-175 and 176-185 differently. But the experience reset is at 186 not 176. What exactly makes levelling to 175 a milestone apart from the new dungeon?
  2. What maps do people grind at level 175+?
  3. Is it a good idea to grind to 165, and then use cards to skip to 175? Or stick at Dina Bee till 171 before using cards?
  4. Is grinding at 2nd Demon Prison a viable option? The only time I went there was at Level 150+ and tot stopped by a world boss right at the entrance lolol. It seemed like filled with archer mobs.
  5. For quests, I haven’t been using a quest guide. All I do is check the “Show all eligible quests” button in game and complete the quests from there. Do you know if there are quests that are possibly not shown this way? Cos it seems like some map post Demon Prison only has like a few quests and have NPCs which don’t give out quests even though I don’t see any possible new ones on the menu anymore.

Sorry for the lengthy post and thanks in advance for the answers!

175 is a milestone because spamming cards from 150 will make you get stuck at 160+ and there’s no more good grinding zones after 170

175 zone also allows you to do the other quests on Stele Road path in order to help you get past the wall before 186.

Just take note that most quests require you to be at least 10 Lvs apart from the map Lv recommendation.
Other thing is, you can do the maps kill count for EXP cards trading at Wings of Vibora NPC (both Klaipeda and Orsha cities have them) and explore 100% of the maps also give (if i am not mistaken 3x EXP cards).
Cards also drop from monsters when hunting.

As for grinding spots at around 170, Uskis Arable Land have a good amount of mobs in a concentrated area, you can grind there till 176 i guess, but by then you will be able to get more quests in other areas and keep progressing.

So am I right to say that once 175, there will be more maps and quests which will make levelling easier? Or will there still be grinding from 175-186, just that at different maps.

Is it better to use experience cards to get to 175 or grind to 175?

#5

it’s always better to grind, if you have an effective place to grind, and save the exp cards for a level where you -don’t- have an effective place to grind.

but you’re following a leveling guide, right? why are you having trouble?

Hmm the problem is I rebelled and used up a number of cards, but not all, before it was recommended. So I’m following it on a “few million exp” shortfall for which I’ll make up by grinding.

Just not sure which maps to grind past 165-ish to make up for that shortfall.

I’m afraid once I card to 175. I’ll end up with the same problem of “no grind maps + insufficient exp from dungeon” to reach 186, if you get what I mean.

grind now until you’re back “on schedule”. at the 160’s i think Dina Bees and Demon Prison are the maps to go to.

#8

Not sure if there’s a better way but what i did was stay in demon prison 2 as long as possible (grinded till i’m 10 lvl higher then the mobs) then move to bees and grinded there as long as possible.

It will make the back end of your leveling experience easier. I guess it’s a choice between enjoy now and suffer later or suffer now and enjoy later.

People have grinded to 173 just fine from 145. Using 2nd demons prison tree’s. If you grind to 173 and pop cards you’ll skip the 175-185 deal.
Or you can grind out monster cards (and do missions)
