Road to 99™

Well, this is for my first post on my new start in Valhalla. Even though I've been there and done that (having characters achieve 99 and then transcending them part), it's still hard work and dedication for someone to do this. Time consuming may be the better term, but in this case, efficiency is more appropriate.

Before I blabber on my take of how to level a range character (bard/dancer, not sure if applicable to the hunter class) to 99 in less than 2 months, I'd have to remind you that with my expanding knowledge of the game, as well as new features added by its developer, I've somewhat have discovered a faster way to level a bard/dancer character.

Yes, a faster way for those who have access to two computers at their disposal and with that a fast DSL or better internet connection. I'm not saying that this is what you should do. If money or resources are limited, why not find a friend with a similar objective and do it together. So what's the secret? Get married, adopt a novice, leech that novice and turn it into a full-time FS support priest or priestess, and then head to your characters' leveling spot and take your kid with you where ever you go! I'll post on how it works later.

So here I am, leveling my GF's dancer from level 1 up to level 96 turning 97 in less than 1 month. At first, it's archer days was great since it was boosted by my priest, Ryou. From metalling to greatest general and then to the enchanted soils (mi gao) in louyang. At job level 41 (just needed lvl 1 Arrow Shower for the dancer job change) the archer became a dancer (after a few dance exams with lots of mistakes).

From there, the dancer leveled at geographers in einbroch field till level 85. Good thing the 2x EXP MOD Flower Bonanza was there for at least a month! So off the dancer went with her adopted priestess to the drosera map and they're still leveling there till 97. Decent loot drops as well as EXP per monster, could save you the hassle of the transcending fee and regaining all the money from the wedding fee.

As of now, I've done my homework, researched on the next leveling spot and my best bet would be Seals or Sea Otters at Comodo. If not, I'd be taking on Drosera till the dancer reaches 99. Talk about a long time commitment to the plant. /heh

Will keep this post updated! Rok On!
