How To Level Up Fast!
Main Storyline Quests
- Once the game starts, complete all main storyline quests ("would suggest to rush") to get huge EXP (tap quest for auto navigation), until you can no longer advance because the game requires you to reach certain Lvls to continue with the main quests.- This is where you should start completing Events and grind EXP (refer below for tips).
- Also complete other quests here, like Tutorials and other side quests as you go.
- NOTE: Once you are able to reach the required Lvl, you should advance the main storyline quests again ~ repeat steps to level up fast.
Other Info
- Dauntless Buff: This is a global passive bonus that gives higher EXP gain depending on the Lvl of the highest players in the game.- Other Rewards: Claim all Login, Level Up Rewards and other freebies as you go.
Newbie Orientation
- Use this as a guide on what to aim for while playing.
- Example: Rush the main quests until you reach around Lvl 28, to trigger and complete the "Samuel's Altar" main storyline quest, then proceed and grind up to Lvl 30 to complete Day 1 challenge.
