Hello I'm on the server Rageing Tide and am a level 13 cleric. I know the best way to level untill about 35 is quests but for a cleric once you hit level 20 it becomes extremely hard to level without a squad or just extreamly boring.

My question is, is there anyone who will level my 13 cleric to level 40 or 50? I don't care how its done as long as it isn't something i get banned for also some inportaint info is I can't get exp stones so thats a problem.

Willing to pay for this but can't pay anymore then 800k.

    Im fine with questing but on clerics it is bad. I've never ever gotten a cleric past 29 because it gets to way to boring. Cyclone, back up, cyclone, back up, cyclone, back up ya sick of doing this 24/7. I love clerics they are fun to play when im in a squad but i hate them when i have to sit and train by myself.

    Well grinding and questing isn't much different. The only difference is that questing gives you something to kill and grinding is you just mindlessly kill.
    uh yeah, like me.

    So should i add you ingame or was that just a joke?

    =P Aww, the 20-40 time was my favorite! I was two hitting things left and right, never had to buy hp pots, solo questing was faster than I would have thought.

    Then again, cleric is my favorite class, and this is my second one. If this is the first time you've played a cleric, the 20-40 range is when you have to develop the knowledge of which heals to use and when, so you'll be prepared for BH squads 40+

    Otherwise, you'll just become one of those clerics that actually leveled Blessing of the Purehearted and uses Chromatic all the time instead of IH or Wellspring. You...do use wellspring when you solo quest, right?

    The first time I tried a cleric was on pw-my, got it to level 30 I think and it was just painful, though I was new to using clerics, still though, it was balls, I leveled this cleric up to about 52 or so using a plat mp charm which made the levels go by easy, I suggest you find a way of getting any kind of mp charm through the starting levels.

    Welcome to the world of RPG's? Lol most of it is repition for whatever class there is.
    Take veno for example. You can play two ways, pet as main tank or you as main tank and pet DDing.
    Pet tanking: send pet in, heal til mob's dead.
    You tanking: click skills, pet DD's, repeat til mob's dead.
    I hate to tell you, but unless you have the cash to dish out to get you all the way to level 100, you're gonna be grinding/questing that cleric after you get to level 50...

    The big thing in RT powerleveling right now seems to be Vortex Runs. Some guy made that his screenname and spammed world chat about it. Now other seekers have picked up on it. Lowbie gets in squad with seeker and he vortexs the **** out of stuff for an hour.

    Why do you run? Cyclone, plume, cyclone, ... kills them faster. Just ih to heal away any damage you might take. Sure it might take a bit more mp because you have to heal, but the killing / questing is faster. Especially with double drops this is really worth the extra mp cost.

    And yeah, vortexing at the pits will get you from 1 to 40+ in an hour with hypers. So if anybody in your faction is there, you can just save your coins for 5 hypers and be done with it.

    Cyclone, Plume shot, cyclone, plume shot, and use IH to heal with. Clerics admittingly are not the best class early on, but I assure its far from impossible. 2x is on, so you've got an advantage there. I assure you, that this is the time when you should be concentrating on quests, and grinding if you want. You will NOT want to do quests later on. Trust me. The XP is abysmal at higher levels. You're level 17 now. Things are going to get better. Its good that you know how to kite with cyclone, but at the low levels, you don't really need to. (Except on those accursed Sable Mongooses. Lol. Trust me. This is coming from someone who was getting disheartened as well with their cleric meeting death. In all honesty, I flew from plume city down to raging tides so that my cleric could have a better life. I grinded on mobs down there until I had to come back for my cult.) I like to think of the area by broken bluff where Yansheng and Charr are as the training grounds for all classes. The area around Orchid Temple, I refer to it as the Proving Grounds. The reason is because this is the area where you get your first real taste of squadplay. Yes, you've probably been in squads before, but thus far only with archers and other clerics. You gain valuable experience squading with others in the training grounds, and even more on the proving grounds. This is also an area where you'll likely meet friends to help at other times. You may even meet higher level players, or people who have high level alts to help with your later cults. Clerics do level slower than some other classes, but if you can do it right, you can actually level quite fast. The training grounds and proving grounds do help lower leveled players to hone their skills. (I got my first real taste of cleric gameplay healing my squad as we were assaulted by werewolf spearmen, quillhogs, and pyrogolths. I took to the air, healed the squad, rezzed as needed, as the other cleric tried to do the same. After that squad, I knew what cleric gameplay really was, and have been hooked on cleric since.)

    At level 44, you'll get wield thunder. Clerics will start to shine a lot more once you do. Before then, you'll also get your buffs. Believe me, they'll make your job a lot easier until you reach it. Being that you're talking about level 40, then I assume that you're trying to rush into bh's. I understand where you're coming from, but I'd advise you to at least spend some time on the training grounds, and preferably the proving grounds before you do. Its not just about skills, but you also get a better idea of what to do if you do get aggro. Trust me. Its worth it...especially since 2x is on. (I'm leveling some of my alts, and I don't even want to bring them through an alt fc until they've spent some time there on both grounds, so I do believe what I'm telling you to be sound. Being able to run the instance is nice, and knowing the skills is as well...but there is a certain amount of skill that can only be gained through experience. Take the time to level...at least to 30 again...if not all the way to 40. In the long run, it'll be worth it. Trust me, repitition is present in every class...even for my sin, I'm repetitive. (That's part of the reason for the macros.)


    Btw, what is your build, and what type of armor and ornaments are you using? That could be part of the problem.

    If all else fails, join a faction with players around your level. Check world chat. That would make it easier to build squads. A good squad makes the questing fun. If there are different classes there, you will learn more about the other classes as you play.

    On a 1st character, you need to play and learn your skills. Knowing how to play your character & how/ when to use your skills will make or break your character. Have fun in game.

    Somehow I found it much more fun to get early lvls as cleric than with other classes. I have leveled 5 clerics over lvl50. As cleric you can grind harder mobs than other classes which is more fun.

    Another way to make things more interesting is dualing, if your computer can do it. You can make your own squad of two. I did this with a sin, and I am still doing it. It is a bit of a pain sometimes to run with both toons especially in a dungeon where you can't embrace, but if you are tired of the cleric kiting, let a sin, barb or whatever melee kill for you and heal. Dualing has other benefits too, like double inventory and safe space, plus you can transfer things between toons without an account stash.
    I used to play PWI until I took an arrow to the knee.

    This. I have never kited anything on my cleric. If it is something that hits really hard, stack a couple of IHs before it reaches you. Otherwise, I generally have no problem cycling between cyclone and plume shot and healing after the fight.

    What mobs are you grinding on that you can't kill in 2-4 hits??? Never lvling up was there ever a normal mob (not counting Mag Resist mobs or quest elite mobs) that I couldn't kill in 2-4 hits. Normally it would take 3, 2 if I got a rare crit in and 4 on the weird one where you hit on the low end of your damage range more than once. Even taking 4 hits unless you are fighting archers (which is a pain for every class but archers and seekers b:chuckle ) or magic mobs you shouldn't be taking much damage at all and since you can heal yourself it's kind of irrelevant.

    But if you want to lvl faster here's what you do take the 1 mil you have and buy 5 hyper stones and use it for 12x xp and you go back and grind and in 1 hour you will go from 17 (I think you said you were now) to around 30 all by yourself. Maybe even higher depending on the mobs you grind on.
