ahhhhh i think im stuck at 14x
not sure what am i suppose to do
i can commit 2hour of daily TOS
should i do quest hunting for exp card
or do dungeon
my first play through, i didn't really prioritize fast lving. instead what i did was, just do all the quests from klaipeda, and merged it into the orsha side of the map using betterquest addon so i did not miss any quests. so i completed quests from lowest to highest. and so while doing quests in that area, i was of the same level, so killing mobs i do not incur an EXP penalty, also i am strong enough to kill and survive that area without feeling too burdened.
that said.... that may not be the best form of power leveling.... (questing does get you cards which is important, but probably shouldn't over do it like i did perhaps, since some lv ranges perhaps grinding would have obtain faster xp/hour compared to wasting time questing)
from what i've seen, people have been relying on grinding at certain points in the game to power level their way through the game very fast....
few places i've seen
- the beginning area where you first start
- royal chapel (bottom left where a group of monsters spawn)
- dina bee
- demon prison
these 3 places have in common that the monster respawn very fast
part 2 of the grind fest, they don't quite spawn right on top of you as amazingly fast, instead the grind method is to group up and kill monsters as you move along..... and if monsters don't respawn fast enough, you switch channels. you do this in a full group.
- alemeth
- residential evac
- storage - has an event, you can get nice xp
- workshop
- maven (this is where you go for 270-280) - has an event, can get nice xp, though it's hard and you risk dying in an area where dying makes you lose silver. be careful
some tips for leveling in a group, you get bonuses for...
1. having swordie/healer/archer/mage in group
2. each person in group having 4 or more classes
3. having token effect for more bonus xp
4. using exp tomes (more effective in dungeons, but in late game, you may as well use for grinds like storage and above at which point you no longer do dungeons for xp farming)
i would suggest you go to reddit and check under sub reddit treeofsavior, look for a leveling guide which covers up to 200 or above, which will advise in what level ranges where to farm for xp, and advises when to effectively use xp cards to jump levels to avoid areas where there is poor xp gain in duns and area grinding.
hope that helps

PS: doing dungeons and missions etc help boost your xp alot. but in much later levels like for me, just simply grinding maven is way better at leveling in terms of xp/hour. So i could waste my dun entries to go farm for items rather than full clearing for XP.
