Theres so many summons and plants to choose from, do I have to level up ALL of them? I don't think I have enough Spirit for that...

So far from the summons I only got the Devil and Storm Mistress, the Devil thing is okay, but the mistress is a MP sucker...

Another thing.. how about the plants? I don't really see a useful need for them right now..... Do I still need to level them up? Oh and I'm planning on just PvE for now since I'm very new =D

Last question, abit off topic but do I still need to do the Archosaur quests because theres like a whole list of them and theres still loads of quests to be done at my area?

    Try your best to keep your Devil Chihyu maxed for your level. Your storm mistress can stay at level 1 for a while if you only plan on PvE. When you get Salvation, you'll want to level her up a bit too, but only if you have extra spirit and nothing more important (in your opinion) to level.

    As for the plants, Punishing sting isn't that great in PvE, and neither is Listless Blossom. Befuddling Creeper and Spidervine should stay leveled pretty decently since their debuffs can be really helpful in killing bosses later on. Healing Herb and Vital herb are nice to level, but they can get pretty expensive. Level them if you don't have anything else, like Salvation.

    Heavy Cash Shopping is the difference between understanding simple game mechanics at level 30, or level 101.

    I disagree. for soloing, a punishing sting is very useful, if you know how to use it. Most times my mystic dosnt even have to fire off a spell for a kill, i just send the devil over + summon a punishing sting on top of the mob group while i spam pet heal. Im lev 55, the devil does 800 damage consistantly, while the plant does 500 but at a faster interval (devil once a second, plant once every 0.8 seconds)

    pretty decent, however i find the healing plants more useful, although the debuff plants are useful, in a party you're better off saving the debuffing for other classes. and in the limited amount of time you have between spamming dd and heal youre better off shooting a more useful plant that helps the party.

    Spidervine is a great debuff for bosses that only a Spear BM can debuff (that I know of).
    Also, the Creeper has so many debuffs, it's still better to get 5 lower debuffs than 1 high debuff, IMO.

    Devil is probably the best pet for PvE, and Salvation is nice if you want to go to battle yourself.

    As for plants, I only leveled Listless blossom in case I get distracted and the pet dies, it puts them to sleep for long enough to get to a safe distance and counter-attack.
    I still don't plan to level the plants, only my devil and attack/healing skills do the job just fine for now...

    Do the quests, even if they don't give you enough exp/money, you still get some rep that will come in hand, since you can get rank 1 just by doing all quests up to lvl 30, and that rank 1 gear is nice untill 5x, and is really cheap to get.
