Powerleveling in ToS

[Cakester]

Are you for real? Go play another game.

[hlawrence508]

Yeah I think you asked for all of this hate…WIth how much leveling there is, and no reset system for classes, even I would want a powerleveling buddy but do not have one. I guess unlike you, people do not want to do all that leveling and same questing shiz again. If you want to, go for it, but this post seriously sounds like you are just crying because you did not have someone to powerlevel you. I would pay to bet that if you were in the darn party, you would not have even posted this. So just stop. lol

I usually grind there from 73 - 74, i do this so i can save enough lvl 3 exp cards to jump from 80 to 86(exp reset). Thats not the point tho, it’s irrelevant whether i need to grind in that map or not, depends entirely on what route we follow when we’re leveling. What really matters is not being able to grind in that map because of Powerleveling, there are only 4 channels in that map for Silute and that was the only one with a working Device, all the other ones were on cooldown.

I respect your decision to level how you want, but when you have two viable roads to walk down, you can’t really complain when only one of them is closed. By 100% completing most of your maps around that level (Minus the Lv 1 & 2 EXP Card maps) and doing Klai + Orsha Quests, it’s not necessary to grind before the Demon Prison stage. Yes you may want to grind there anyway, but by not doing it, it’s in no way hindering you from leveling just as fast, if not faster, through Questing.

I don’t think so, lvl 3 Exp Levels are only usefull before the 86 exp reset, they don’t need to do all the level 3 exp card maps after they’ve been powerleveled after that threshhold, which they can easily do at Constructor’s Chapel.

Lv4 EXP cards start getting handed out in the late 60’s, which shouldn’t be skipped unless the Quest that gives them out is one of those Green repeatable types that take longer than a normal quest to complete and only rewards 1 Card. These are the ones that they’ll still need to (Or still should) do.

Meh, the OP will play a different tune after his 3rd or 4th char…

[MelioettaZyguard]

Eh, pretty sure in Beta the Exp Penalty was applied before being split.

They most likely changed it due to party matckmaking where some high level person can queue into level 50 dungeon to mess people’s runs up.

This is my 4th character.

[igor_lavor]

Uhh… no. I really don’t care avout the people doing it, when i recorded the video i legitimarely thought you could not powerlevel other players(i guess i missed the patch notes when they changed that) and that field quest was either bugged or they were bugging it somehow.

You can’t really blame me for not knowing that, there are VERY few Powerleveling threads in this forum and they’re all outdated at this point.

Nevertheless i still hold my opinion on Powerleveling in MMOs, i can see that very few people agree with me while others just don’t really care, they like the convenience and i can’t blame them for it, ToS quest line in it’s current stage is very boring, specially for early levels.

Jesus I wish there was a fast way to level up in this game. Already sick of levelling new alts and I’ve never once hit 200 on a character yet. Leveled 5 characters up to 140 and then stopped cause I hated them.

I remember back in RO you could get pleveled and there was like no exp penalty on killing high level mobs as a low level. What the heck were they thinking when they put that level-gap stuff in this game?

Honestly if there was a pay to get a level 280 character in this game I’d pay it right now

[BlueByu]

lol thats not even fair xD, litterally 95% of all necromancers are stingy and mean and dont invite anyone to their dina bee farm group

[SlyGoat]

You don’t even need to 100% maps for level 3 exp cards, hell you can skip most of the optional quests before Royal Mausoleum. You’ll get more than enough exp just doing both questlines.

(i guess i missed the patch notes when they changed that)

It was in the launch version of the game, the level difference in parties penalty only existed in beta.

You only get a 20% exp penalty for killing high level mobs in ToS. If you can get in a guild willing to powerlevel you, you could go leech exp in Alemeth or something.

[scarethemonkeys]

I’m not usually 100% afk, and I will invite anyone who says something to me. Often throw up public parties so people can apply. But in most cases, you’ll gain faster exp through quest and such. I tend to qausi AFK with my friend or GF in pt while I’m doing work. If I see someone wants to join I’ll send em a message.

It’s good for AFKing, but not so much for anything else. Less you want to sit there bored. My necro is only 228, so not so good at Dina Bee as my Skele’s still die to quickly.

[beto_ruizc]

Yeah, get a mage, lvl up fire bolt stay in geos until job 50… go to wiz/sage and go to goats for eternity with storm gust/ice bolt, Wow absolutely not boring as hell, and that’s why even RO have that exp penalty, ppl doesn’t know all areas because of that

And is exactly the same here, with all my characters I had never need to grind, because looking for all quests just gives you enough exp to advance an absolutely all maps (until ~225), which is actually the point of this game in this moment

I have to ask, why u (or anyone) will wish a 280 character when there are not end game content? To make more post about there are not end game content because you didn’t enjoyed the path to max lvl? Please

Even with the last patch the game went dumb friendly showing all quests u can get (which I think it stupid, find quests I’d part of the fun, but well ppl is dumb)

If power lvl is for ppl who’s bored of the game, they simply shouldn’t be playing the game (and no blaming anyone, if something doesn’t like you, is not game’s fault), because at this point, the only the game offers is the high enriched path to max lvl…

If u use the excuse “I have no time to play” well… Me neither, I have a job and anyways I’m working on 6 characters and I’m figuring out how I want to build a 7th one, no one has ever grinded…

Ofc, if you (or anyone) is power lvling is OK, but you are losing the game experience they wanted to get IMAO

[dk-darkdkd]

I have trained 4 characters up and i must the worse period is between level 20 to 50.

Because after that u can just let dungeon carry u from 50 to 80 before u spam your exp card to 90 to change your dungeon and so on…

That is if you arent in a rush to high lvl…
So it isnt so bad.

who receive penalty in this case is the high Lv char

can you explain what kind of penalty is that? i was really curious about the penalty-thing ever since but i dont bother about it back then.

[Nirimetus]

A pretty simple and obvious one, the monsters at that Lv would barely give any EXP for a Lv 200+ char. I can’t say for sure if the EXP is divide as it is for the others, i suppose it is, i remember once when me and a group of friends ran dun 90, 1 Lv 280 and the rest was around Lv 95, we got the same exp by doing the queue as it would me doing the same and getting a full Lv 9x group.

[black_rabbit]

ah… i thought the exp penalty goes like: if ur using a lv200 and powerlevel your lowbie frends, you get the penalty when you try to go to the 200+ maps lel…

thanks for the clarification.

[Nirimetus]

You mean the Lv 200 char getting penalty at maps of his Lv range? Hell no, that would be pretty silly.
