Fastest leveling character

theshocker · Post by **theshocker** » Wed Oct 17, 2007 6:22 pm

I know that wizards can one hit most mobs, but rogues with xbow can grind on mobs that are 9 levels higher then the rogue. pure int nukers with spear, I hear do a lot of damage. I also hear that 2 h warriors can kill really fast.

What character can level from 1-80 the fastest? With the least amount of downtime and the least amount of money spent?

No one has some input?

Being powerleveled with a lv80 pure INT nuker with 0 gap and tickets.

How about if you grind yourself up, solo, no groups?

bakafish · Post by **bakafish** » Wed Oct 17, 2007 7:27 pm

I was joking, Pure INT spear.

A pure INT spear is faster then a pure int wizard? Even a Pure STR xbow rogue??

What about, the fastest EURO character, not counting the chinese?

xbow rogue is probably the fastest

generally int based charecters lvl up faster but the downside is that they die a lot

Either Wizard or xbow rogue. With a wizard I can get about 50% with a ticket at 60 in the 3 hours. However with xbow rogue, you can probably kill mobs 11 levels higher (with bard subclass so it's easier) and end up getting more XP in the 3 hours. I don't know since I don't have a lvl 60 rogue to compare...

Chinese int spear? maybe if all your spears are sun you would do as much dmg as wizards.....then again maybe not, as I currently do as much dmg as level 68 int spear botters around me.

wizard has highest damage so it lvls fastest.

elnawawi · Post by **elnawawi** » Fri Oct 19, 2007 1:17 pm

it's not the damge only guys .. it's the AOE and casting time and the range and the death rate too

Cleric can do the most damge ever in game when he "offering" .. but this skill don't make him the fastest .. this skills have 1 minute cooldown timer

Dagger crit is the second highest damge in game ever .. I mean with his 380% skill in DD .. but dagger have no AOE , NO range , X-bow crit will do the 3rd damge after dagger with 320% in bow extreme and he have the best range in game but have no AOE ..
(but they can grind +9 lvl mobs easily by KD , KB , Stun , bleed)

All wizard skills in Live control will do more damge than non-crit hits of rogue and more than all chinese nukers and they have the AOE too .. best AOE .. but they die and die and keep die (can't deal with gaints or party mobs too)

Chinese nukers (Pure int spear) have good damge and god range and good AOE and they still alive by no pots delay .. but the damge is more less than cleric, rogue, wizard ..
-----------------------------------------
So it depends ..

- If you know how to not die with wizard will be the fastest ..

- If you know how to grind +9 lvl monsters with a crossbow you will be the fastest .. or if you have crit 24 crossbow ..

- if you can grind party mobs and kill fast and still alive with nuker you will be the fastest ..

- if you know how to make your best AOE with chinese bow you will be the fastest ..

- if you 24/7 party in monsters +11 lvl than by blader or 1 handed sword you will be the fastest .. :wink:

pure int spear bcoz this build got the biggest damage in china and have no pots delay.. yes i know euro chars got the biggest damage over all but coz of the 15 secs pots delay it's hard to focus on damage if u can't survive 3 or more mobs going after u..

well that's just my thoughts

glaive is the faster all of them..]

glaive+++Bot===30 days lv 80

Pure STR crossbow, you can grind on Penons nicely at 44 tbh

torinchibi · Post by **torinchibi** » Fri Oct 19, 2007 3:14 pm

You guys should realize that the amount of times you die while grinding really means nothing for the fastest leveling char. You can always pick your mobs better, get a better set, or simply be more careful. Having either noise and moving march, or self healing and bless spell can keep even a wizard pretty safe while leveling. I die rarely at the worms and it only happens if I am not careful(I can easily do a whole ticket grinding nonstop without dying). I am sure rogues can do the same with mobs 5-10 levels higher without too much trouble, especially if they are not aggro.

Again, dying is a problem of those who cannot play their chars, after level 30-40, when you have all the skills and know how to use them, dying is rare even among euros.

if there not aggro wizards and rouges can grind on mobs 9-10 lvls higher without dying but cause of the pot delay and mobs are aggo you will have a pretty hard time cause u will die alot more espeacially if you get atacked by 3-4 mobs at once

bard

edit: no that is not a joke^^ in exp parties they lvl up very quickly and can run away =)

pure int spear levels fastest. get your ice for the mana shield. wear armour to be safe. protector and garment works well, armor will be safest for grinding.

DeathBeforeDishonor · Post by **DeathBeforeDishonor** » Sat Oct 20, 2007 2:52 am

wizards have HIGH dmg,AOE and theres nothing wrong with thier cool down time. i recomend wizard, you kill fast and you kill alot

ReadyToClub · Post by **ReadyToClub** » Sat Oct 20, 2007 2:50 pm

For Chinese, the Nuker or Int Hybrid spear,

For Europe, Wizards or Rogue (xbow)

I think...

If it's a Chinese char, you can just set autopot at a high %, if you have the money to burn pots so much.

KEY:
blue = 1h
brown = 2h
green = dual axe

indigo = recap
********************************************************************************************

did you just say warriors lvl slow?? warriors DONT lvl slow, they, when used properly are 1 of the fastest ad funnest lvling euro class. Remember when grinding as a warrior [1h lvl 10+] you want 2 taunt as much in the area as you can, that way you optimize your exp. with your aoe shield trash techs, you can effectivly kill more than 3 mobs at once.

As a warrior 2h you musnt rely on taunt until 40+, why you ask, well simply because below lvl 40 warrior 2hs cannot tank more than 2 pt mobs; even, when the mob is thier lvl. Dont let this lack of tanking ability scare you, where the 1h fails the 2h succeeds from lvl 1 - 64 the 2h will almost always out dmg the 1h, but be warned you will notice after 64 the 1h can out dmg you.

As a dual axe warrior, your tanking ability wont shine until 20+ after 20+ for the dual axe, not only will you be having fun because of it's beautiful chains; but also because of its ability to tank as well as the 1h warrior. The dual may lack str, but because of its speed and chains,it, is a considerable foe.

so lets recap

* RECAP *
at lvl 10 1h is a fast lvler.
at lvl 40 the 2h is also a fast lvl [i suggest getting pwrlvled 2 40 or finding a good group of friends ig or irl 2 play with ]
at lvl 20 the dual cacthes up with the rest, and does not get left in the dust.

at lvl 64 all the major melee classes are reletively balenced.

CAIO :wink:

I wanna compare euro characters VS chinese characters a lot of people didn't play euro before and don't know what is that ...

* Euro in damge VS chinese
- 1 H , 2 H . Axe , dagger , crossbow have more phy damge than glavie , blade and bow ... also staff , warlock rod , cleric rod , harb have more mag damge than spear and sword .. just go to the blacksmith in hotan and compare the base attack of all weapons and see ..

- rogue and warrior have passive increase phy attack more than the fire passive and fire buff .. also warlock, cleric, bard , wizard have passive increase mag def attack .... lvl 80 passive for euro give him 80% mag or phy attack .. lvl 80 light buff give 17% mag attack , lvl 80 fire passive give 8% phy attack and fire buff 9% phy attack (total 17%) ..

- rogue have buff that increase phy attack with 75% , wizard have buff that increase mag attack +25% .. chinese have nothing as this ..

- rogue have skill with bonus (+375%) , warrior have skill with bonus (+485%) , wizard have skill with (+435%) , bard have skill with (+365%)cleric have skill with (+967%) .. while chinese bow have 2 skills with (+350%) , and nuker have (+330%) only !!

* Euro in AOE VS chinese :
- STR builds in euro have bad AOE but all INT builds have great AOE that's can't be compared to the chinese ..

- wizard and cleric have skills that attack 8 enemies at once and other skills attack 5 at once .. also bard and and warlock can attack multi enemies up to 3 .. and chinese max is 5 in cold and fire nuke 5 in ghost spear .. 4 for chinese bower ..

- euro AOE have better distance to separate in enemies than chinese .. there are AOE with 8m and 10 m .. chinese max is 6 m ...

- Most of chinese AOE attacks have reduce in it ,, euro attacks have a lot of non-reduce skills ..

* Euro in range VS chinese :
- Crossbow have the best range in game .. the passive give him more range than chinese buff .. and he have skill with +7 m range and other skill with +15 m range ...

- wizard , bards have 10 m range as default and also they have passives that increase range so they can attack from more distance than 10 m chinese nuker have

- only chinese heuksal mastery have better range than melee weapons in euro ..

And there are a lot of other things to compare but I will continue later
