Quests - a faster way to level or not?

[Enraya]

That's what I do o:
I like doing quests, but if the reward's going to be only low exp/money, I'll skip. If there's fame involved, I might do it. I'll probably go for the quest if it has good material rewards, even if it's out of my way xD I like doing quests for some reason o-o

I normally go back to Eld in the middle of grinding because I don't usually just stay in one place and grind for a long time, LOL. I need a change in scenery, so I'll go back to town for stones and normally turn in quests.

In the end, it's all about whether you want to do them or not. If you don't want to, don't do them xD

Well, I'm asking for the fastest way, but it sounds like I've been leveling the fastest way all the time. I still think that quests shouldn't suck so badly, they give so low EXP, money and fame! D:

At lower levels what you say is true.

However, the fame you will want to collect.



At higher levels quests are the fastest way to level. At around the levels 30, or 40 you being feeling the burden of grinding out 100,000 experience points. At 51 you're burdened with your first 1,000,000. At 60 its 3,500,000. Throughout your 60's each level requires 600,000 to 1,000,000 more experience points than the previous.

At level 68 you are asked to grind out your first 10,000,000 experience points. Throughout your 70's this number gets even higher until 77 when you reach 20,000,000.

The amount required to go from 79 to 80 is 23,000,000.

Quests at higher levels usually give anywhere from 100,000 to 1,300,000 experience points (talking about level 70 quests here) accounting for an overall of maybe 1-5% of a level.

You can't gaint 5% of level 78 faster than a quest.

Quests are darn good at higher levels. I wouldn't live without them. At lower levels, though, quests kinda suck.

I also believe the Ratman quest is a repeatable one, so if you've already done it once, it starts giving lower exp. Repetable quests always give very low exp. Try looking at how much exp you get from normal quests.

It looks like some quests gives about 250 EXP.
Robins quest to kill Mara (who ever she is or where she is) gives 460 EXP with TWO Elrues.

So some aren't worth doing only. D:
Thanks guys - again! <3

Repeatable aren't worth doing, unless you need the rewards they give i.e HP/SP pots or Elderine/Roumen scrolls.

Enjoy your quests while you can... A few 40's, 49, 50, and 52-57 have nearly no quests. -misses 51 where I could level only with quests-

[Kaidela]

Yeah, I didn't start doing quests until... level 59. xDDD They were pointless in the lower levels, but really once you're 50+ they're a faster way to level. Maybe even 40+.

I would say the Quests are big help, I started the fast boogys @ lvl 18 and I did three of them which put me @ lvl 19! the thing is your not just getting the exp from the kills, but also from the reward. Like everyone else I kill stuff in between as well.

It kills you a little inside when you level up and see 3 quests available, then realizing that 2/3 of those quests give only 1,000 exp when you need 500,000+ to level...
