We need more viable levelling options for 3rd job players, with the exception of F/Ps and shadowers. It's no fun when all you can rely on is ulu leech (now nerfed) and Pirate PQ (which many consider as boring) so I ask the staff to prioritise addressing the issue of the lack of levelling options in the next update. This problem affects so many players, especially new and broke players like me, and yet this has never been addressed in my 2 years here. Maybe start by adding a new PQ?
70-120 is a large frame. Which levels exactly are you speaking about? Romeo n Juliet is 70-99 i believe
I think people are too used to how fast leech is but there are a lot of grinding spots if you put some effort in. For example himes are a great training place for warriors and priests (I solo-lvled a priest at himes to 120 in old maple) Wolf spiders/mp3 are great exp grinding spots. Sniping newties for ranged characters, WR/SB. Temple of time quest lines and just grinding there. Sure it's slower than leech but levelling like once/hour is honestly not that bad. Pirate pq gives maybe 400k exp every 5 mins till lvl 100. Other chars can actually farm at ulu/petris other than mages too. Bigfoot hunting, headless horseman hunting, etc. There's actually a lot of places to train I think... Edit:removed wrong sentence lol
There's a lot of leveling options for this range if you're not HP washing, just to name a few: Captain Latanica, HH, Papulatus, Himes, ToT. Absolutely no reason to buy leech unless you're rich and lazy
Back then in 2014 players between lv75 to 95 used to party training at wolf spiders which is a real good leveling option. For lv95 onwards, melee classes and mage classes can also grind at Himes (dreamy ghost) to lv120 or so on. The problem is here , ranged classes like hermit/ranger do not have a good option to lv when they are lv95 onwards. Yes they can train at jr newtie but i tried it out it is MUCH slower if comparing with himes. Also for area bosses like HH it is not that easy to find a HH since it drops nx/quest item for deputy star causing not only player who wants to level hunt to hunt HH Also i made a feedback regarding RnJ pq before. https://royals.ms/forum/threads/romeo-and-juliet-pq.129927/
I haven't personally trained a ranger/hermit but a lvl 100 ranger guildie is gaining comparable exp mobbing typhons(Just annoying if you get blown off lol). Not sure but I think hermits can go gobies?(Haven't tried it out). I don't mind new pqs if they do get implemented though . Is temple of time hard to train for rangers and hermits or ulu?
Oh that's right! When you get used to leech, everything else feels very slow. That affects expectations of how quick levelling should feel like. I also started off with a F/P which I trained at petri at a pace so good that I later found training my pally in 3rd job (which I washed) so snoozeworthy that I just decided to just buy leech instead Having said that, I wish there was more to 3rd job than just plain old fashioned grinding which is literally a default option available to all levels. Literally no PQ to level from for the latter half of 3rd job, a bare amount of quests, everyone hunts HH etc.... Levels 90-120 is a bit boring IMO. If R&J PQ could be adjusted for these levels, it'd be ideal!
In my opinion there are plenty of options. On my sniper I did a lot of Vikings/gigantic Vikings in ludi, I bet other classes can get 1%/min there also. And what about wolf spider party's. Or kentaurus for warriors around lvl 85 and up
Romeo & Juliet (or Magatia PQ) is for levels 71-85, but is not currently implemented. It's been requested a few times (including once from me) but the staff has never commented on it.
