1-76 Leveling Guide!
1-76 Leveling Guide!
Hey PL players!! I have been working on this guide for some time now, and I hope it can increase the amount of enjoyment new/intermediate/seasoned players experience while playing this game.
I think that we all know the painstaking process of grinding a toon up level after level, and it can be quite frustrating. This guide will cover:
1. Elixers
2. Daily Blessings
3. Gear
4. Efficient Maps
1. *Elixers*
The rush of being superhuman...the xp flying up your bar...the feeling of holding aggro on bosses...all of these can be achieved by using the PL drugs knows as elixers!
The most commonly used elixer is the "Thrasher Pwnage Punch." This elixer gives you max efficiency output. When consumed, you recieve 4x xp, damage, armor, 30% luck, and a 25% run speed increase. Although these are highly sought after effects, they come at a pretty penny. 40 plat. The effects last an hour, but are best used stacked with another elixer.
You can purchase these elixers, but if you are a non-plat player for the most part, (like me), then you wont be buying these. Similar effects can be aquired by using
2. *Daily Blessings*
This is the go-to feature when leveling without plat. In the first four days, you have a chance of getting either a
3x Combo Elixer,
1.5x Combo Elixer,
1.25x Combo Elixer,
1.5x Damage Elixer,
1.25x Damage Elixer,
1.5x Armor Elixer,
1.25x Armor Elixer,
1.5x Xp Elixer,
or a
1.25x Xp Elixer.
On the fifth day, you can recieve a 3x combo, 1.5x combo, or one out of many vanities.
You will mostly be shooting for a 3x Combo Elixer, but you can also level on a 1.5. Honestly, I wouldnt bother trying to level with a 1.25x combo or any other elixers.
3. *Gear*
While leveling, gear can make a signifigant difference on leveling efficiency. Better gear can make an enormous impact on the speed of your XP runs. It can be expensive to constantly buy new gear when you are simply grinding and not stopping to twink, so you will probably want to update your gear as infrequently as possible, yet often enough to keep from becoming underpowered. I recommend only buying new gear when absolutely necessary. Most sets can last you 2-4 campaigns.
4. *Effecient Maps*
1-8 Run Skeleton Cult Crypts.
Lots of mobs that are tightly packed, and lots of games available usually.
8-13 Run Dark Forest 5: King of Bling
This map has a high mob capacity and often has 70+ players power leveling lower level players.
13-18 Run Balefort Caslte Hidden Passage
This map has an extremely high mob density and hardly any respawn time. (Ty sheugokin). When you reach the last room, click Menu>Exit level>Continue
18-23
Sort of an awkward stretch, I tend to do a combination of Wyldwood and Sand Stone Cave.
23-28 Run Lost Expedition Maps
Most are equally effecient. Just hop to the games with the most players.
28-33 Run Croc Maps/Expedition
All are fairly equivalent
33-53 Run All 3 AO Campaigns/Sewers.
For the first campaign, run Great Pyramid. This map has lots of mobs, clear the path then take a loop starting towards the right and work your way around and into the pyramid.
After you can go to the second campaign, alternate maps through the third since they are all tomb-like and have a high mob capacity.
At 48 you can enter Balefort Sewers. The mobs here hit hard but are easily killed and can give you some hardy exp. Remake the first map-53 as another way to get good exp.
53-58 Run Nuris Haunted Symphony
Although not extremely effecient, its better than then the others. Its mostly chosen for its abundancy of mobs. Another decent alternative would be Lions Den. If you are 54 and have completed the nuris questline, you can run funhouse for mediocre exp and a chance at valuable legendary items.
58-68 Run Mount Fang Crypt
This is one of my favorite places to level, there are always games going and you can do this stretch in a day easily. You can switch to Humania maps at 64, but they are ineffecient and the mobs hit extremely hard. I suggest staying with Crypt.
68-76
Congratulations! You have finally made it to the final stretch. Keep up the hard work!
This is where you will do a lot of grinding, so take it easy and enjoy yourself. Run Nest for the most effecient xp, and Magma if you have a good party (fast runs+chance at valuable armors and shields [1m+]).
You can also do Lost Valley. This map is very effecient if you have a good party, but if your group is full of leechers or chattets I suggest avoiding it.

Hoorah! You are now 76! Go get that Elite Red Dragon, you champ you!
