I hit level 9 yesterday woot [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] got my spells and i have to say its so much better leveling has gotten much faster. I went from an hour a yellow solo to a yellow in about 35 min which is a big improvment [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I dont mind the grind so much to be honest i am not really rushing for end game or anything i am just playing to have fun...

i do however want to get my dreadscale armor quests done but i guess i am gonna be stuck waiting till i get to 30 or so and get gather shadows...

also does anyone have an recomendations on cheap but decent 2 handers? I am using gloomwater harpoon currently but thats a 1 hand piercing...

i just rerolled off my troll sk at lvl 40. what this guy here said post 40 ur grind slows down dramatically (or I have noticed) and my SK was pretty twinked.
edit: i am aware 40 is hell lvl i meant slows down due to reasons i listed below

a) mob health goes up dramatically so fear kite takes alot more mana (specs in oasis are dark blue and using undead fear for 1/4 mana ill go thru about 50%) where as earlier lvls 22-39 i could maybe go 5-6 mobs in a row without a med
b) the 68% is hard the whole way but there isnt a level I found at least where you gain some new skill that increases ur killing speed (solo) to take the bite away even a little. If I made another SK i would go human or DE honestly youll still be a beast endgame (i mean really though how likely are you gonna do end game)

iksar and troll look sickest for sure and regen is nice but i dont think its worth the exp if you are at all a casual gamer without twink gear.

Keep in mind too that a big part of the xp penalty (the hybrid class penalty) will go away in Velious. So you'll only have your race penalty and things should speed up a bit.

Speaking of which, is there any ETA on Velious release yet or is it just TBD? I am also an SK and if Velious is coming out soon I may not grind quite as much knowing my exp rate will be going up relatively soon heh.
