Hi everyone! FatalLace here, just wanted to share with you an AWESOME leveling guide created by RikoRain. The guide has been featured on the forums and has received tremendous positive feedback. Since I'm often asked about stuff like this, I figured I'd reach out to RikoRain and see if I could use her guide, she agreed. No sense rewriting the bible right?
The all-inclusive guide will be broken down into three parts covering levels 1-59, 60-89, and 90-114. The guide has been updated numerous times to include the most recent quests and strategies for maximizing your playtime.
Just be advised that I AM NOT an advocate of powerleveling. So if that is your answer to your leveling issues, this guide is not for you. However, if you want to play and work at your craft, learn your class inside and out through in-game experience (not following along on the back of a Hobby Horse), then please stick around and read through these great guides.
My contribution to the guides will be some of the screenshots, artwork, and videos. The text comes courtesy of Riko. I may make my own notes here and there to give some extra insight. That all being said, let's go!
Beforehand Notes:
- KQs will be listed in detail on the first level available, and abbreviated from then on.
- PVP KQs will be listed on the first and last levels they are available for only, with a mark to their range.
- PVP KQs will not be listed until the first available (level 35).
- Repeats will be listed every level, but detailed only on the first level they are available for.
- Instances will be listed every level they are available for, if there is no instance available, it will be listed on the first level that no instance is available until one is available.
- Instance listings will not be shown until the first instance is available (level 20).
- Due to the quickness of these levels, they are bundled into groups of 5.
- Hidden Mine is for all levels, so I will not bother listing it for level specifics.
- Event specific or Temporary KQs will not be listed.
- Daily quests (for fame) will not be listed.
Important Note: Sometimes the level ranges of Instances change. As of April 15 2013, they are accurate.
Tactic: Pick up your initial Baby quests and the "walk through" chatter beginner quests. Equip your weapon, and go kill Slimes, Mushrooms, and Imps until you hit level 6.
Notes From Fatal: Definitely pick up the Daily Quest from Town Chief Roumenus as well. I would suggest going with the 10% Drop Rate Increase. Some of the early level cards, especially the Slime S Card, which gives you the Warrior of Roumen title, can be financially lucrative.
KQ: King Slime's Counter Attack (5-16) (King Slime KQ)
KQ Video: King Slime's Counter Attack - Archer
Quest Repeats:
Working for Julia (6-10) - Collect 1 Sea Mushroom and Two Starfish
Beat Speedy Honeyings- Defeat 5 Speedy Honeyings (6-8)
My Favourite Clam 2- Obtain 3 Clam Meats (8)
Blue Crab Dish 2 (8-10) - Collect 12 Blue Crab meat
Despicable Little Ones (8-10) - Defeat 5 Little Hobs
Tactic: Pick up quests if you like. Pick up Essential Gift from Town Chief Roumenus for a free 7 day hobby horse that is faster than the basic one upon reaching the milemarker. As soon as possible, join King Slime’s and attempt to win. Otherwise, do repeat quests or pick a monster and grind.
Note: Be sure to add a higher level player as your Master at level 9 (before reaching level 10), as well as joining the active Academy of your choice also at level 9. The rewards from both of these begin as soon as the player actively levels into 10 from level 9.
KQ: King Slime
Quest Repeats:
The Mini Greenky (11-14) - Deafeat 5 Mini Greenky
Disease Carriers (12-17) - Defeat 5 Ratmen
Medicinal Herbs (12-15) - Collect 1 Herb Leaf and Defeat 15 Ratmen
Working for Karl (12-15) - Collect 10 Broken Blade
Clam Chowder (13-16) - Defeat 5 Boogy
Tactic: Use the Teleport Gate and complete The Mini Greenky and Disease Carriers over and over until 15, at which point continue to complete Disease Carriers repeatedly until 18. These two are wonderful for creating a stock of Roumen and Elderine town scrolls to help you later.
Notes from Fatal: In Bijou, these teleport scrolls can sell for anywhere between 100-150s a piece. This is a pretty lucrative quest early on. The other servers are probably pretty close.
Notes from Fatal: Unfortunately, it's rare that the Slime Kingdom Quest fills. If you're fortunate enough to be able to get through it with a party, great! However, be prepared to just keep questing.
KQ: Mara Pirates' Rage (17-25) (Mara KQ)
KQ Video: Mara Pirates' Rage KQ Mage Solo
KQ Video: Mara Pirates' Rage KQ Tanking
Quest Repeats:
Clam Chowder (13-16) - Defeat 5 Boogy
Joker Kebings 2 (18-20) - Defeat 17 Joker Kebing
Speedy Boogy 2 (18-21) - Defeat 20 Speedy Boogy
Ruined Garden 2 (20-26) - Defeat 7 Prock Zone
Tactic: Continue to complete Disease carriers until you reach level 18. At 18, join Mara KQ. Each success will grant you one level until about 22. If you cannot complete KQ, simply complete the other repeats. However, avoid the Ruined Garden 2 (its experience is too low).
Notes from Fatal: Again, like the Slime KQ, it's rare that the Mara KQ fills. However, with a decent enough gear, a little know-how, it can be done with minimal participants. If you're extremely well-geared, the Mara KQ can also be used to farm both the Mara and Marlone A and S cards, extremely valuable. From here on down, please be aware that KQs may not fill, it's best to continue focusing on your quests and finishing up your levels in the Abyss.
KQ: Mara Pirates' Rage (-25) and Gold Hill Adventure (20-32) (Gold Hill KQ)
Instance: Tower of Iyzel (20-70)
Quest Repeat:

Insomnia 2 (25-27) - Defeat 15 Glow Wolf
Tactic: Complete Gold Hill KQ (and Mara if you please, but more-so Gold Hill) for quicker levels. Please remember to take a pickaxe! Each completion will grant you either a level, or a notable amount of experience. Do the above repeats between KQs for added experience boosts.
KQ: Gold Hill
KQ Video: Gold Hill KQ - Tanking

Frozen Ice Cream 2 (28-29) - Defeat 20 Ice Vivi
Roumen's Security Issue 2 (29-30) - Defeat 20 Cave Archmage Book
Hobby (30-31) - Collect 1 Sticky Spider Web
Tactic: Keep doing Gold Hill. You will notice you get less and less per success as you level up, but it is still good experience. Do quests in between. If you dare, you can also grind in the abyss.
KQ: Gold Hill (-33), The Millenium Robo Plot (33-45) (Robo KQ)
Instance: Tower of Iyzel (20-70)

The Wild and Master (35-39) - Collect 1 Wolf's Claw
Tactic: Do repeats, KQs, and quests in between to help level. At 33, Robo will offer quite a bit of experience. At 35, PVP KQ is by far one of the best ways to level up. A few Tower quests done at this time also provide a nice chunk of experience and are easy enough now that you are 10-15 levels higher.
KQ: Robo, Mean Giant Honeying (40-50)
Instance: Tower of Iyzel (20-70) and Devildom Mine (40-50)

It Drives Me Crazy 2 (40-42) - Defeat 20 Earth Spider
For My Friend (40-50) - Defeat 1 Storm Citrie and 1 Ice Citrie (Instance repeat)
Tactic: Join Robo KQ every chance you get in an attempt to complete the KQ Questline. Also, join PVP KQ when you can. Between, complete repeats, grind in abyss/dungeons, or complete other non-repeat quests. Generally save the non-repeats for levels with no repeats, but this should not hurt you too much.
KQ: Robo (-45), Honeying (40-50)
KQ Video: Mean Giant Honeying KQ - Tanking

Fantastic Items (44) - Collect 22 Werebear's Claws
Best Broomsticks 3 (44-46) - Collect 50 Werebear Armpit Hair
Tactic: If you have not completed the Robo KQ Questline, now should be the time you press on to do so. Join PVP KQ as well, of course doing repeatables between KQ, and normal quests between repeatables. Should those fail, abyss, dungeons, or normal map grinding will become the default. Notable repeats are Ugly Goblins, Fantastic Items, and Best Broomsticks.
KQ: Honeying (-50), Lost Mini Dragon and Lost Mini Dragon (Hardcore) (46-60)
KQ Video: Lost Mini Dragon - Tanking
KQ Video: Lost Mini Dragon - Archer

Athlete's Foot (46-48) - Collect 10 Sand Mushroom's Heads
A Secret Request (47) - Collect 30 Goblin Captain's Helmet
Mannequin Lips (49) - Collect 10 Mini Lips' Lips
Release from Pain 2 (50-60) - Collect 20 Feather of the Foras Tribe (Instance repeat)
Tactic: Mini Dragon KQ will provide optimal experience. If you choose to join (you should), please remember to participate fully and avoid leeching at all costs. Aside from MD, complete the repeatable quests. Each one has a decent amount of experience reward, as well as a set, specific, and well-placed spawn point for the target monsters.
KQ: Mini Dragon
Instance: Tower of Iyzel (20-70) and Devildom Barracks (50-60)PVP KQ: Brave Warrior (55-69)

Delivery Delay (53-54) - Defeat 100 Vampire Bat and 20 Lighting Vivi
Escape from Concealed Prison 2 (55) - Defeat 120 Prisoners
Tactic: Mini Dragon KQ will still provide notable amounts of experience. Repeats at every level will make saving the normal quests easy (as you should save them for 56-60). This level is all KQ and repeats.
KQ: Mini Dragon
Instance: Tower of Iyzel (20-70), Devildom Barracks (50-60), and Crystal Castle (60-69)PVP KQ: Brave Warrior (55-69)
Quest Repeat:
The Master Criminal (57) - Defeat 50 Senior Torturers
Castle Lords's Goods 2 (60-61) - Collect 50 King Spider's Webs and 10 Queen Spider's Claws
Tactic: Since you only have 1 repeat at only 1 of these 5 levels, join PVP KQ and in between complete normal quests. At 57, do only the repeat as much as possible. For 57-60, do any and all quests while joining in PVP and Mini Dragon KQ. Usually you will reach 60 by completing all quests available - if not, you should be incredibly close. For the extra bit needed if you do not reach 60, simply spam KQs.
;D Images are love!
