I have a lvl 51 BM and i want to use him to get my lvl 2 sin up fast. I wanted to do this now since the new rules state we can have 2 accounts running at once.

So how do I grind with my lvl 51 BM so my sin can lvl? When I do it now, the level gap is so big, all the exp goes to BM :(


thank you! :)

    That's what happens when you have a high level, it sucks exp mega hard. I suggest putting hyper stones on your little sin and have them running while with your bm.. b:victory

    For the cost of hypers you might as well be a noob and just buy powerlevels.

    You're doing it wrong. Exp from mobs doesnt matter, and never has. Level your sin to 20 normally, having him kill mobs, then have your BM start killing his mobs. Makes the quests faster. The quest exp is what levels you up, the mob exp is a total joke imo. And around level 35 you'll run out of quests. Buy heads once or twice and you're set. Then have your main solo his BH's. At least that's what I did til my sin was level 60. Then I just had my sin join BH51's, and brought my cleric along to tank. No one had an issue with it... Since everyone powerlevels and finding a tank in the 6x range is next to impossible.

    Edit: Nvm your main is only 51 lol. just quit your BM he isn't gonna be able to help your sin for very long anyways -_-

    With your BM only at lvl 51, all he's gonna be good for is helping your sin finish the early quests faster. Once you get up in the 30's, it would almost be quicker just to ask a cleric to buff your sin before you quest since they kill things so fast anyway.

    And once you get to lvl 40 BH and CS will allow you to level once per day and you can still get decent exp from quests at that point. So really, even if you only play for an hour or two per day, it should only take you a little over a week or so to get in the 5x range.

    I wouldn't worry about hypers or buying heads, it sooo easy to level up to 50.

    lol..

    And besides, that's the old school way of power leveling, which works perhaps into the 10s but because of lack of XP thanks to higher level boning your mob XP, you wind up with no quests and only mobs to kill (mob XP is very much part of leveling early on for the non-powerlevel way).

    With hypers mob exp really does matter. For instance, archers or clerics in their 20s can beat up on toxicons by those encircled trees and level past 30 in less than 10 mins just from hypers.

    Hyper FCC of course, when doing a solo power level run, can get you into the 40s from level 1, and before wearing out an entire set of 5 hypers can wind up lvl 70+ only paying for the power levels if can't find someone nice or do it himself like I do.

    it would be better to just lvl it normally til lvl 20 and by then you'll be getting the divine contracts from the divine emissary of light that lasts till lvl 51, divine contracts are a daily quest between 20-50 and it gives good exp. plus with all these new quests available now you can get passed the boring mid 30s section with ease. complaining bout it will only make it worse than it seems, besides hard work equals a job well done.

    thank you! :)

    Hi, level your sin normally until he can have wings, then, fly above the bm high enough so the mobs dont touch the sin. Put the sin on follow and just run around and grind as normal and have them in a party together, they share the exp but the sin will level pretty fast. I do this but I feed all the exp the sin is getting to a genie so she just builds up spirit that is so hard to come by when lower level for the skills :) I got my sin to a level that I wanted then worked on spirit spirit spirit. When I am ready to work on my sin without the bm, she will have money for skills plus the spirit to get them.

    What're you loling at? And how does it not work? Worked for me, but instead of buying heads I just bought oracles with some left over tokens I had sitting in my bank. Took him from 36 (when he ran out of quests), to 40, then I could do BH's for him. Got him from 1 to 60 in about 2 weeks.

    I would tell you but that's a bit inappropriate for this forum.
