CJJ's Instance leveling guide

[CJJ]

Just a quick little thing I had written down that ive used to level my toons. Its based on having another character run you thought instances diablo style. The only difference is that I tend to use characters who can solo the instance but arnt level 80 for example if I wanted to be ran through RFC ide ask a level 30 instead of an 80. The reason for this is that the experience granted is based on the highest level inside the instance. You get less exp from a lvl 30 running you than an 80.The most amount of experience you gain from a mob is if it is 4 levels higher than you it caps at 4. This means you generally want to keep the mobs in the instances your doing between 2-4 levels higher than you no more.


1-10 = Questing. You can get into RFC @ level 8 but the experience isnt very good its faster just to level to 10.
10-13 = RFC the mobs here are 13-16.
13-15 = Questing. You can enter WC but questing is faster.
15-18 = Wailing Caverns/Deadmines mobs are 17-20
18-19 = Questing
19-22 = BFD mobs 22-24
22-25 = RFK you can also start in stockades rfk mobs are 24-27 stockades 23-25
25-27 = Gnomer/Questing 25-28
27-30 = SM GY 30-32
30-32 = SM Lib 33-35
32-35 = RFD 34-37
35-39 = SM Cath 37-40
39-46 = Mara Different areas 42-48
46-54 = BRD 48-56
54-58 = Strat/Scholo 56-61
58-61 = Blood Furnace 61-63
61-62 = Underbog 63-65
62-64 = Mana Tombs 64-66
64-65 = Sethekk 67-69
65-68 = SV 68-70
68-70 = Nexus 71-73
70-74 = Old kingdom 73-75 / Drak Tharon 74-76
74-77 = Gundrak/Questing
77-80 = HoL / Occy / CoT / UP

Now alot of people might complain about the spread out locations etc. Ive found its always good to have multiple quests as quests that are 2-4 levels higher than you always give a lot more exp. If for whatever reason you cant get run you can do the proper quests and have a lot of FPs. Sorry if my grammar/spelling has offended anyone. I was just bored waiting for my server to come up today. Good luck hope it helps

I find that starting SM at 20 gives you alot of experience. Even though they are higher the sheer amount of them in there and how fast you can run it makes up for that.

Wait is this doing it with groups or getting ran through, you should make a guide for getting ran through also.

It actually works for either since it uses the maximum amount of exp you can get from mobs it doesnt matter if your in a group or not although generally it would be harder to run instances like this with people of your level.

The trick to maximizing run throughs is not to use a toon terribly high. For instance a lvl 30 for RFC will yield you more experience than an 80 doing it. You can also take full advantage of this with recruit a friend.
