Beginner’s Leveling Guide~

The Leveling Guide:

This guide will have the places to hunt, and the monsters to kill based on your class and level. It is made based on a Server with a starting area, however it should fit any low to mid rate servers.

If you need to know how to access a certain town or dungeon here’s a link to my Map Access Guide.

Novice: Job 1-10 Equip any starting equipment and head to the leveling map of your choice.

Locations:

1) Limitless RO Camp:

Kill porings first, and when you’re ready try Lunatics. Have the Potions on your hotkeys.

Willows are also good for experience. (Head right of Payon Town. Avoid the spores, trust me.)
Once your Job Levels are maxed (10) you need to change class.

First you need to distribute your 9 skill points (alt S), next use your ability points (alt Q or alt A). If you are going to be a caster class pump dex and don’t touch agi or str, this will save you a reset. If you are going melee distribute evenly dex, str, and agi. Then walk north to the town center.

The Trusty Traveler is the storage NPC. The Healer and Boat Worker (Warper) NPCs are in the town center. The Army Recruiter (Job/Class) NPC is up and top the left from the city center. The building to the right has most other NPCs of note. When inside the building head right for Barber (Colors), Resetter, Renter, and Card Remover NPCs. The left has Vending NPCs and Refining NPCs. The player market is outside the building in the main town, head left of the city center.

2) Without custom starting area, head to the map West (left) of Alberta or East (right) of Payon.

Pupa are non aggressive and never retaliate. Perfect for the flailing level 1 character. Make sure you have some sort of equipment before moving on to something that can retaliate.

When you’re ready try Porings and Lunatics. Have Potions on your hotkeys, or flywing.

Willows are also good for experience. (Avoid the spores, trust me.)
Once your Job Levels are maxed (10) you need to change class. First you need to distribute your 9 skill points (alt S), next use your ability points (alt Q or alt A). If you are going to be a caster class pump dex and don’t touch agi or str, this will save you a reset.

See the ratemyserver class quest section for details on how to change class.

Mage:

Go to payon dungeon with some Novice Pots (Free) and kill the skeletons there. At first you will have to use your weapon, like a novice.

Payon Dungeon Floor 1:
Kill them until you have soulstrike and can equip a wand. Distribute your stats equally into int and dex. Now kill Zombies, Poporings, and the Familiars too.
When the exp seems slow, flywing past the next level and get to level 3 Payon Dungeon. Use soul strike and firebolt on the Munaks and the Bonguns.
Payon Dungeon Floor 3:
Once you have fire bolt 5-10 and 50+ int you can go to Geographers or Mi Gao.
Einbroch Field, North of Einbroch Town:
Louyang Field, South of Louyang Town:
Change job and move to Wizard or Sage section of the guide.

http://ratemyserver.net/quest_db.php?type=60000

Wizard:

Once you job change and get a few job levels make sure to get Jupitel Thunder. When you have it head to Alligators. One map north of the Comodo Beach Dungeon warp.
Comodo Field, 2 Maps East of Comodo Town:
When you job level take quagmire. Once you have Quag 3 and Juptiel Thunder 5 You’re ready for seals.
Comodo Beach Dungeon Warp (south one portal from alligators):
OR
You make some friends by now and one of them is a Bard or Priest. Party with them in ice dungeon killing Siromas.
Ice Dungeon Floor 1:
Once Seals/Siromas get easy go to Ice Dungeon 3 with Quag JT and LOV (Lord of Vermillion). Poem of Bragi and Orleans Robe makes it easier. Kill the Ice Titans.
Ice Dungeon Floor 3:

Monsters to Avoid: Gazeti (A Priest can cast pnuema to negate the Gazeti’s Attacks)
When you get to 89+ Try to find a friendly person to party with or leech from. It really does help with a PvM class. Cursed Abbey, also known as Nameless is great party leveling. Stormgust, Quagmire, and Jupitel Thunder are great for Mob control.

Cursed Abbey Dungeon Floor 1: Ghoul Zombie Slaughter

Ragged Zombie Hell Poodle Banshee

Flame Skull

See Transcending Section for further details.

Sage:

Now that you’ve changed jobs make sure you have lightning bolt 3-5, and a descent amount of dex. Now head to Alligators for some job levels. One map north of the Comodo Beach Dungeon warp.
Comodo Field, 2 Maps East of Comodo Town:
Try to get Free cast maxed, once you feel confident head to the Seals or Siromas.
Comodo Beach Dungeon Warp:

Ice Dungeon Floor 1:
Try to find a friendly priest and tank then head to Ice dungeon level 3 to kill ice titans.

You could also join that priest in Anubis; keeping the other mobs (Pasana, Minos, etc) killed with Cold bolt.
Sphinx Floor 4 or 5:
Sages have the option of using firebolt and soul strike in Cursed Abbey Dungeon. There are always large parties happening there; making it easy for any class to level.

Cursed Abbey Dungeon Floor 1: Ghoul Zombie Slaughter

Ragged Zombie Hell Poodle Banshee

Flame Skull

When you get to 89+ Try to find a friendly person to party with or leech from. It’s much faster…

See Transcending Section for further details.

Thief:

Go to payon dungeon with some Novice Pots (Free) and kill the skeletons there.
Payon Dungeon Floor 1:
Kill them until you have dodge maxed, equal agi and str remainder in dex, and can equip a Stilleto or better. Now kill Zombies, Poporings, and the Familiars too.
When the exp seems slow flywing past the next level and get to level 3 Payon Dungeon.
Payon Dungeon Floor 3:
Max agi for survival but make sure to spare some in str for damage and dex to keep hitting. If you get bored you could always kill Orcs.

Use the SakuraRO Warper to Orc dungeon warp and walk up through the first portal, then outside to the geffen field map.

For those that have to walk start in Geffen Town. Head out the west portal. Walk South 2 maps until /where says Geffen Field 14, take the east portal. I suggest bringing Flywings to teleport through Geffen 14, there are High Orcs which are too strong for your level.
Geffen Field 10: Orc Baby, Orc Warrior, and Orc Lady

Monsters to Avoid: Orc Lord

You can also use envenom on Metallings and kill efficiently.
North of Lighthalzen Town:
If you have some money to spare, or are lucky to have a nice friend, use a fireblend and pump int and dex. Put the Firebolt skill on your hotkeys and you’re good to level like a mage at Mi Gao or Geographers.
Einbroch Field, North of Einbroch Town:
Louyang Field, South of Louyang Town:
Once you change jobs move to the Assassin or Rogue section as appropriate.

See the ratemyserver class quest section for details on how to change class.

http://ratemyserver.net/quest_db.php?type=60000

Assassin:

Now head to Alligators for some job levels. One map north of the Comodo Beach Dungeon warp.
Comodo Field, 2 Maps East of Comodo Town:
Once you have hide and grimtooth head to Seals. Collect 3 seals the first time. When they are lined up on one spot hide. You can only use grimtooth while hiding. Immediately start spamming them with grimtooth until they die. Then “mob” larger amounts of seals as you get more confident.
Comodo Beach Dungeon Warp:
Once you catch the technique of mob + grimtooth = fast exp head to Venatus. They can be found in Juperos.
Anolians are worth more experience then seals. If you don’t have a wind weapon they aren’t worth the time to kill, it’d be faster killing a seal with neutral damage then killing an anolian. If you have wind type weapon Anolians are an option.
Comodo Field, 1 Map east of Alligators:
Juperos Dungeon Floor 1:
You make good money at both seals and venatus. You also have the option to leech others for money if you’re good enough. Then use that money for a leech at 89+ to speed things up.

If you get bored with solo leveling, try visiting Cursed Abbey Dungeon. There are always large parties happening there; making it easy for any class to level. Ask for aspersio from the priest in your party to deal more damage.

Cursed Abbey Dungeon Floor 1: Ghoul Zombie Slaughter

Ragged Zombie Hell Poodle Banshee

Flame Skull

Rogue:

You’re finally a rogue! Hated those last thief levels right? Well it does get slow for Rogues too. First buy/hunt a bow and wind arrows. Head to Alligators for the first few job levels. Make sure to have a good amount of agi and dex. Reset if you have to. One map north of the Comodo Beach Dungeon warp.

See the ratemyserver class quest section for details on how to change class.

http://ratemyserver.net/quest_db.php?type=60000

Thor Dungeon
When you get to 89+ Try to find a friendly person to party with or leech from.

See Transcending Section for further details.

Dancer:

What I like about dancers is that soon they will transcend and not be so naked. LOL I jest, but really it’s pretty fast to trans a gypsy. Use dex, agi, and double strafe. If you want to party with others Fortune’s Kiss increases criticals and Please Don’t Forget Me slows monsters dramatically. Head to Alligators on the chance to get a card while you level a bit first. Take wind arrows. You can find them one map north of the Comodo Beach Dungeon warp.
Comodo Field, 2 Maps East of Comodo Town:
When you feel confident try out seals or siromas.
Comodo Beach Dungeon Warp:
Ice Dungeon Floor 1:
You could join a friendly TU priest in Anubis; keeping the other mobs killed with Double Strafe and Cold Arrows. While using green song (Please Don’t Forget Me) to slow the enemies.
Sphinx Floor 4 or 5
One benefit-sad but true-is that dancer is female only class. Therefore, dancers are very easy to find a leech for and usually for free. Once you’re 89+ just talk to people, someone will leech you.

For the more self reliant Dancer: Hunt Pasana Card, Composite Bow [4] with 2 Vadon Cards and 2 Peco Peco Egg Cards, Jakk Card. Use many flywings, skill, and patience… You can solo kill Kasa in Thor as a high level dancer. Make sure to avoid everything else. Imps appear heamless, but cost alot to kill for very little exp.

Thor Dungeon

See Transcending Section for further details once maxed.

Bard:

The great thing about leveling a bard is you can help in all dungeons with Double Strafe and Poem of Bragi to support. Head to Alligators on the chance to get a card while you level a bit first. Take wind arrows you find them one map north of the Comodo Beach Dungeon warp.
Comodo Field, 2 Maps East of Comodo Town:
When you feel confident try out seals or siromas.

You could also join a friendly TU priest in Anubis; keeping the other mobs killed with Double Strafe and Cold Arrows then using Bragi to speed up his TU.
Sphinx Floor 4 or 5
If you hunt Pasana Card, Composite Bow [4] with 2 Vadon Cards and 2 Peco Peco Egg Cards, Jakk Card, and have enough flywings and skill… You can solo kill in Kasa in Thor as a high level bard. Make sure to avoid everything else. Imps appear heamless but cost alot to kill for very little exp.

Swordsman:

Go to payon dungeon with some Novice Pots (Free) and kill the skeletons there.

Kill them until you have Bash maxed, equal agi and str remainder in dex, and can equip a Stilleto or better. Now kill Zombies, Poporings, and the Familiars too.
When the exp seems slow flywing past the next level and get to level 3 Payon Dungeon.
Payon Dungeon Floor 3:
Use Bash and Magnum Break for max damage. Max agi for survival but make sure to spare some in str for damage and dex to keep hitting. If you get bored you could always kill Orcs. Use the Orc dungeon warp and walk up through the first portal, then outside to the geffen field map.

For those that have to walk start in Geffen Town. Head out the west portal. Walk South 2 maps until /where says Geffen Field 14, take the east portal. I suggest bringing Flywings to teleport through Geffen 14, there are High Orcs which are too strong for your level.
Geffen Field 10: Orc Baby, Orc Warrior, and Orc Lady

Monsters to Avoid: Orc Lord

You can also use Bash on Metallings and kill pretty fast.

North of Lighthalzen Town:
If you have some money to spare or are lucky to have a nice firend borrow a fireblend and pump int and dex. Put the Firebolt skill on your hotkeys and you’re good to level like a mage at Mi Gao or Geographers.

Louyang Field, South of Louyang Town:

See the ratemyserver class quest section for details on how to change class.

http://ratemyserver.net/quest_db.php?type=60000

Knight:

Now that you’ve gotten through those last swordsman job levels, there must be a sense of relief. It won’t last long. HAHAHA! Anyways, your best bet at first is going with a high agi and str build, with the change in dex to hit. Head to Alligators on the chance to get a card while you level a bit first. If you have a wind sword use it (if you don’t have elemental swords try to save for them). You find them one map north of the Comodo Beach Dungeon warp.
Comodo Field, 2 Maps East of Comodo Town:
When you feel confident try out seals or siromas.
Comodo Beach Dungeon Warp:
Ice Dungeon Floor 1:
When you get bored or the exp isn’t as good try out Racheal Dungeon. It has direct warp. Use a neutral weapon. Hide (Smokie Card) Clip will help you live longer and avoid the magic attacks. Take Panacea (saved from killing seals) or green pots to get rid if silence.
Rachael Dungeon Floor 1: Isilla and Vanberk
You could join a friendly TU priest in Anubis; keeping the other mobs off him with provoke and a VVS Whitesmith’s cold sword.
Sphinx Floor 4 or 5
When you get to 89+ Try to find a friendly person to party with or leech from.

If you get bored with solo leveling, try visiting Cursed Abbey Dungeon. There are always large parties happening there; making it easy for any class to level. Ask for aspersio from the priest in your party to deal more damage.

Cursed Abbey Dungeon Floor 1: Ghoul Zombie Slaughter

Ragged Zombie Hell Poodle Banshee

Flame Skull

See Transcending Section for further details once maxed.

Paladin:

Use a high agi and str build, with the change in dex to hit. Head to Alligators on the chance to get a card while you level a bit first. Make sure to go for Spear Mastery, and Spear Quicken. If you have a wind spear use it (if you don’t have elemental spears try to save for them). You find Alligators one map north of the Comodo Beach Dungeon warp.
Comodo Field, 2 Maps East of Comodo Town:
When you feel confident try out seals or siromas.
Comodo Beach Dungeon Warp:
Ice Dungeon Floor 1:
You also have the option to use Grand Cross to level. This would require high vit and int (make sure vit is higher then int) and the rest in dex for cast time. Shield skills will also help you stay alive. Mob the monsters in Niffleheim town warp. Avoid The Loli Ruri and Bloody Murderer, high mdef.
Niffleheim town:
Mob these monsters: Gibbet Dullahan Disguise

Quve Lude Hylozoist / Heirozoist
Monsters to avoid:
Bloody Murderer, Loli Ruri
When you get bored or the exp isn’t as good try out Racheal Dungeon. There is a direct warp in SakuraRO. Use a neutral weapon and agi spear quicken build. Hide (Smokie Card) Clip will help you live longer and avoid the magic attacks. Take Panacea (saved from killing seals) or green pots to get rid if silence.
Rachael Dungeon Floor 1: Isilla and Vanberk
You could join a friendly TU priest in Anubis; keeping the other mobs off him with provoke and a VVS Whitesmith’s cold spear. If you’re good enough you can do it without the high priest, using hide and agi spear with fire spear vs Anubis.
Sphinx Floor 4 or 5
When you get to 89+ Try to find a friendly person to party with or leech from.

See Transcending Section for further details once maxed.

Acolyte:

Go to payon dungeon with some Novice Pots (Free) and use /ns and heal to kill the skeletons there.
Payon Dungeon Floor 1:
Kill them until you have heal 5 atleast, max int remainder in dex and vit, and can equip a wand. Now kill Zombies, and the Familiars too (Holy Light). Poporings are a pain for acolytes to kill.
Do NOT try to kill poporings as an aco, avoid these:
When the exp seems slow flywing past the next level and get to level 3 Payon Dungeon. Use heal 10 and /ns to kill them.
Payon Dungeon Floor 3:
OR
Go to Amatsu Dungeon once you have Heal 10 and Pneuma. Kill the Firelock Soldiers with /ns and heal.
Amatsu Dungeon Warp:
Once it gets really slow and you are close to job change you can try Evil Druids, though it may be too tough. I suggest memoing (/memo) outside the ED entrance, for a direct warp.
Glastheim Dungeon Lower Center of the Map:
Change job and go to either the Monk or Priest section of the guide.

See the ratemyserver class quest section for details on how to change class.

http://ratemyserver.net/quest_db.php?type=60000

Priest:

Head back to Evil Druids, kill with /ns and heal until you have turn undead and some lex divina.
Glastheim Dungeon Lower Center of the Map:
Now that you have turn undead, teleport to level 4 of sphinx and buff yourself completely. Silence the Anubis and then use turn undead on him until it one hit kills him. Try to get Gloria also. Luck increases the chance of max turn undead damage. Cast Safetywall on your feet to prevent melee attacks. Items like Phen Card and Orleans Robe give uninterruptable cast time. This can be useful for the TU Priest. Demi Human Reducers, and vit will help you survive Sonic Blow.
Sphinx Floor 4 or 5
If you get bored of anubis: every party is always looking for a priest. A group party in Ice Dungeon 3 or Abbey is easy to find.

Cursed Abbey Dungeon Floor 1: Ghoul Zombie Slaughter

Ragged Zombie Hell Poodle Banshee

Flame Skull

See Transcending Section for further details once maxed.

Monk:

Head back to Evil Druids, kill with /ns and heal until the job levels get slow.
Glastheim Dungeon Lower Center of the Map:
Now it’s time to reset your character. Go into a Combo build using agi, dex, and str. Make sure to take Iron Hand 5, Call Spirits 5, and Dodge 5 to open up the rest of the Combo skills. Head to Alligators on the chance to get a card while you level a bit first and get used to then new build. Use a wind fist (if you don’t have elemental fists try to save for them). You find Alligators one map north of the Comodo Beach Dungeon warp.
Comodo Field, 2 Maps East of Comodo Town:
When you feel confident try out seals or siromas.
Comodo Beach Dungeon Warp:
Ice Dungeon Floor 1:
When you get bored or the exp isn’t as good try out Racheal Dungeon. It has direct warp. Use a neutral weapon, or even a pvp weapon. Hide (Smokie Card) Clip will help you live longer and avoid the magic attacks. Take Panacea (saved from killing seals) or green pots to get rid if silence.
Rachael Dungeon Floor 1: Isilla and Vanberk
There is another technique used to level monks. Take high str, dex, and tuck the rest into int. Memo the sleepers map. Remember that occult impaction costs one sphere so always have spheres up. Teleport through the map and use Occult Impaction to kill solo sleepers; heck hotkey some flywings so it’s no delay and costs no sp.

To get there to memo: warp to Abyss Lake Dungeon and walk up out the portal where you spawn, then teleport 2 maps left of the Abyss. It will say Yuno 6 if you type in /where.

Yuno Field 6:
You could join a friendly TU priest in Anubis; keeping the other mobs off him with a Cold element fist in Combo or Finger Offensive.
Sphinx Floor 4 or 5
When you get to 89+ Try to find a friendly person to party with or leech from. Stone Body can be used to tank small amounts of creatures. Try partying in Cursed Abbey (Nameless). Use Heal and Stone Body to support the killers.

See Transcending Section for further details once maxed.


Merchant:

Go to payon dungeon with some Novice Pots (Free) and kill the skeletons there. Use Cart Revolution to speed it up and fill your cart; damage is based on the cart’s weight.
Payon Dungeon Floor 1:
Kill them until the experience is somewhat slow. Use equal agi and str remainder in dex, and can equip a Stilleto or better. Now kill Zombies, Poporings, and the Familiars too.
When the exp seems slow flywing past the next level and get to level 3 Payon Dungeon.
Payon Dungeon Floor 3:
Use Cart Rev and Mammonite for max damage. Max agi for survival but make sure to spare some in str for damage and dex to keep hitting. If you get bored you could always kill Orcs. Use the Orc dungeon warp and walk up through the first portal, then outside to the geffen field map.

For those that have to walk start in Geffen Town. Head out the west portal. Walk South 2 maps until /where says Geffen Field 14, take the east portal. I suggest bringing Flywings to teleport through Geffen 14, there are High Orcs which are too strong for your level.
Geffen Field 10: Orc Baby, Orc Warrior, and Orc Lady

Monsters to Avoid: Orc Lord

You can also use Cart Rev on Metallings and kill pretty fast.
North of Lighthalzen Town:
If you have some money to spare or are lucky to have a nice friend borrow a fireblend and pump int and dex. Put the Firebolt skill on your hotkeys and you’re good to level like a mage at Mi Gao or Geographers.
Einbroch Field, North of Einbroch Town:
Louyang Field, South of Louyang Town:

Once you have maxed your job levels change class to either Blacksmith or Alchemist.

See the ratemyserver class quest section for details on how to change class.

http://ratemyserver.net/quest_db.php?type=60000

Alchemist:

Now that you FINALLY got to alchemist you have a huge advantage-once you job level and save for an embryo. You get a little afk worker called a homunculus. For now use an agi str with the change in dex to get a few job levels. If you own/borrow a fireblend keep using that (int dex) to gain your job levels. If you have don’t have fireblend head to Alligators in the hopes of getting ygg seeds or even a card while leveing. One map north of the Comodo Beach Dungeon warp.
Comodo Field, 2 Maps East of Comodo Town:
Once you have Rest 1, and Call Homunculus 1, and Resurrect Hom 1 it’s worth it to do the hom quest.

Homunculus Leveling
Follow this link for the Homun Quest walkthrough on RMS:
http://ratemyserver.net/quest_db.php?type=50000&qid=50020
Once you’ve done all that I’m sure you’re quite worn out. Take a breather. <3 Grats on getting a Homun!! What did you name it?!? Oh yeah… to level your homun take it to kill some porings at first. If you’re lucky your server has the command @pitchhom <#> put it on your “alt M” hotkeys. Also tank for your hom for a while and feed it between 11 to 24 hunger. I recommend a high agi remaining into int and dex type of build to tank. Once your homunculus is strong enough you can just hang in a spot and feed it while watching TV. Make sure to observe your hom at all times, do not go AFK this is now illegal is most servers (yay~! <3). The recipient’s Vit and the alchemist’s Int are what effect potion pitch. If you want stronger potions pump Int and Vit (for when you pitch yourself).
South of Prontera:

Head to Payon dungeon and tank the Skeletons for your homun.

Payon Dungeon Floor 1:
Kill them until the experience is somewhat slow. Now kill the Zombies, Poporings, and Familiars.
When the exp seems slow again flywing past the next level and get to level 3 Payon Dungeon. Be ready with potions at first.

Payon Dungeon Floor 3:

If you get bored you could always try Orcs. Use the Orc dungeon warp and walk up through the first portal, then outside to the geffen field map.

For those that have to walk start in Geffen Town. Head out the west portal. Walk South 2 maps until /where says Geffen Field 14, take the east portal. I suggest bringing Flywings to teleport through Geffen 14, there are High Orcs which are too strong for your level.
Geffen Field 10: Orc Baby, Orc Warrior, and Orc Lady

Monsters to Avoid: Orc Lord

Metallings are easy to kill for the exp they give. As a homun strip doesn’t effect them, so one of the Metalling’s toughest abilities is negated.
North of Lighthalzen Town:
Byalan Dugeon can be used to farm cards and level your homunculus. Head past the first level, and straight to Undersea tunnel 2. Use Cart Rev for mobbing and knockback. Vadons, Kukre, and Hydra are valuable and useful cards.
Byalan Dungeon Floor 2: Vadon Kukre Hydra
If you can’t stand the slow slow exp then just head to the next level and kill the Obeaunes.
Byalan Dungeon Floor 3:
Sell the witherless roses with overcharge and make lots of money. Then buy a Wind weapon and head to Byalan 4 to hunt Marcs.
Byalan Floor 4:
Caster Type Homunculus can level easily at Soils (Mi Gao) and Geographers.
Einbroch Field, North of Einbroch Town:
Louyang Field, South of Louyang Town:
Once your homunculus gets strong and the exp is slow try heading to some tougher dungeons to level both you and your Homunculus at once.

Focusing on Alchemist:
Take your homunculus with you to Niffleheim Town and kill there. KEEP FABRICS! You will need them. Having a slave priest account can help alot. Buffs and Aspersio make a big difference. Avoid The Loli Ruri and Bloody Murderer.
Niffleheim town:
Mob these monsters: Gibbet Dullahan Disguise Quve Lude Hylozoist / Heirozoist
Monsters to avoid: Bloody Murderer, Loli Ruri
When you get bored or the exp isn’t as good try out Racheal Dungeon. It has direct warp. Use a neutral weapon and a tanking build. Hide (Smokie Card) Clip will help you live longer and avoid the magic attacks. Take Panacea or green pots to get rid of silence.
Rachael Dungeon Floor 1: Isilla and Vanberk
To make Potions use dex and luck, blue pot pitch is plenty reason to bring an alchemist along and leech that person. Partying with others will be your fastest avenue to leveling. A group party in Ice Dungeon 3 or Abbey is easy to find.
Ice Dungeon Floor 3: Ice Titan and Gazeti Ice Dungeon Floor 3:

Monsters to Avoid: Gazeti (A Priest can cast pnuema to negate the Gazeti’s Attacks)

Once you’re 89+ try to find a leech or large party, it’s just faster.

If leeching isn’t your thing use your homun on the surface of Turtle dungeon. Using a high agi build.
Turtle Dungeon:
Thara Frog Pest Permeter Dragon Tail Spring Rabbit
Or use the same technique in High Orcs. To get there go to Orc dungeon walk up through the first portal all the way to the outside. Once on the outside map head to the left hand portal. Have flywings hotkeyed just in case you see Orc Hero.

For those that have to walk start in Geffen Town. Head out the west portal. Walk South 2 maps.

Geffen Field 14: High Orcs Orc Archer
TELEPORT FROM: Orc Hero If you want to be nice tell a friendly Champ where he is.

Blacksmith:

Thank goodness you’re a smith at last! Where to level you ask? First work on saving the materials/enough zeni to buy an elemental weapon, specifically wind.
Byalan Dungeon is a great place to farm useful cards, and items that sell for alot. Using an agi/str rest dex build (some vit to live if you like) go for the buff type skills first to help you level. Also use Cart Rev for mobbing and knockback.
Head past the first level, and straight to Undersea tunnel 2. Vadons, Kukre, and Hydra are valuable and useful cards.
Byalan Dungeon Floor 2: Vadon Kukre Hydra
If you can’t stand the slow slow exp then just head to the next level and kill the Obeaunes.
Byalan Dungeon Floor 3: [img]http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/ii236/SonjaR13/Obeaune.gif[/im g]
Sell the witherless roses with overcharge and make lots of money. Then buy a Wind swordmace and head to Byalan 4 to hunt Marcs. Marc Card is highly valuable, and Marcs are also good experience.
Byalan Floor 4:
If the exp gets slow or you get a card head to seals.
Comodo Beach Dungeon Warp:
You can level in Nifflehiem with a Holy weapon. Having a slave priest account can help alot. Buffs and Aspersio make a big difference. Avoid The Loli Ruri and Bloody Murderer.
Niffleheim town:
Mob these monsters: Gibbet Dullahan Disguise Quve Lude Hylozoist / Heirozoist
Monsters to avoid: Bloody Murderer, Loli Ruri
When you get bored or the exp isn’t as good try out Racheal Dungeon. It has direct warp. Use a neutral weapon and a tanking build. Hide (Smokie Card) Clip will help you live longer and avoid the magic attacks. Take Panacea or green pots to get rid of silence.
Rachael Dungeon Floor 1: Isilla and Vanberk

Once you’re 89+ try to find a leech or large party, it’s just faster. There are often large parties at Cursed Abbey (Nameless).

Cursed Abbey Dungeon Floor 1: Ghoul Zombie Slaughter

Ragged Zombie Hell Poodle Banshee

Flame Skull

See Transcending Section for further details once maxed.

The list of monsters for exp when 89+ (From worst to best):

(regardless of class)
Seals to 99 just makes me cry, it is doable though.
Anolians are found one map north and one map east of Comodo Beach Dungeon warp.
Venatus Leech from a good Assassin or Sinx.
Ice Titans Ice Dun Floor 3, with priest and wizard.
Anubis Sphinx Floor 4 or 5, with a Turn Undead priest.
Kasa Thor Dungeon Leech from a good Taekwon or Stargladiator.


Transcending:

Make sure to leave your party if you were in one. This way you won’t take it off party share experience for those not yet 99.
Take off your gear and store it, grab your nubbiest of nub gear and put it in inventory.

For Limitless RO: Talk to the job/class NPC and rebirth into a novice.
You get to head back up to the top of the guide and do it again!
CONGRATS! <3

  1. Really nice guide, though I believe it’s a bare guide still. Could use more updating, like maybe a guide on how to get there. Or a link to the quest if you need to unlock it like on some other servers. Really really good guide and substantial effort.

  2. This guild is quite good but bare :#

  3. Thanks, I’ll be sure to update it soon. Those are great ideas!

  4. This is a wonderful guide! My only suggestion is for the addition of a vit/spear knight section :)

  5. just a suggestion!! for melee biginrs and novice!!
    i think it is more easy to lvl up when u kill a spore until lvl 25……
    and kill a wolf until lvl 50…..

  6. Umm… RMS… I have a question… what if I DON’T have Cart Rev. on second thought? What if I’m just Job Level 15 and such? I’m leveling up my Merch so that I can have an Alchemist or a Blacksmith…

  7. Wow this is such a lame guide.. all monsters to be killed are just about the same with every job… and there’s no transitioning whatsoever…from lvl 11 to lvl 21+ monsters.. omg… beginners are most likely to be more confused than being enlightened by this…dood.. are you seriously sure that this is a beginners guide? i mean.. if you really want to level up fast, go to the monster section in the database, find the monster with the most exp and of course with the least capabilities to kill ya(consider the attack and def) and you’ll be leveling up in no time. unlike this “guide” that’s so “monotonous” in nature, i mean…, c’mon man! seriously!

  8. this is a helpful guide especially for our co-gamers who really need to spend extra effort just to know where to level up. it will be better if it would be updated and will consider the financial status of a player ^_^

  9. Chongke: This is a guide with a variety of easy to access monsters. It is intended for lower to mid rate servers. Spores until level 25 and wolves until 50 sounds nice, what rate server are you playing?

    SoheeMaster: Cart Revolution is a quest skill check RMS.
    http://ratemyserver.net/index.php?page=skill_db&skid=153

    ExpBoy: some reasons I chose these monsters include: valuable drops, easy to access maps, and easy to kill with minimum resources. I am open to alternate suggestions.

    Sakie: Thank you, I’m glad the guide was helpful. I’ll update sections for the more wealthy and less fortunate RO players.

  10. If I didn’t have friends on RO this would’ve saved me AGES searching around for enemies for good exp.

    Awesome and simple guide.

  11. Thanks for the guide, you must have worked hard on it :D

    Thanks alot

  12. You’re very welcome! Such kind praise makes me want to write more guides. I’ve added a link to my Map Access Guide at the top. Good Hunting to you!

  13. I really liked this guide. I’ve been off of Ragnarök Online for a couple of months, and I forgot where to level in some early levels, or what monsters gave me nice EXP among the others…this helped me. Great job.
    ;)

  14. Just like Mon Petit, I spent a few months out of game. This was great to refresh my memory on.

    This guide is well written in a way that was easy on the eye. (Very refreshing to see someone who can actually type in a decent fashion!). The pictures added a nice addition to the piece.

    Keep up the good work, this is most impressive.

  15. Hey, one thing… I… _ _ _ E D your guide!

    PS: It’s I loved your guide… :D:D

  16. Thanks much! :3

    Your reply to a comment here made go “Wow, he’s awesome”. Haha. If I got that comment I would’ve replied with GTFO or sth. ^^ I’m bookmarking this. Thanks again!

  17. Objection!! What about Crusaders? Alchemists are there, Dancers, Bards, why not Crusaders???

  18. because no one likes crusaders

  19. It’s after the swordsman and knights sections, listed as Paladins. My bad.

  20. Dude, very nice guide.

    One thing that would help is if you also added the levels of when to switch maps and monsters…
    Especially the homunculus section.

    Ty

  21. nice guide, for those who beat wolfs till 50 job go ahead and die cuz of boring waste of time.
    If u lucky u can get card or ygg. seed etc..d nice guide.

  22. yeah, nice guide, but do you know any good places to lvl a lvl 95 sage?

  23. Thanks for the guide im new in ragnarok world :)
    I have a question im high mage i have spare 1 skill point can i change to professor without using the 1 skill point?

  24. There’s no mukas,wolfs,porcellios,hill winds,goats and a lot more.
    Just lame guide for mid-raters.

  25. thank you for all the updates given ill surely be helped by dis as i am an new comer

  26. I can see that you miss a few things, but i still think ur guide is very nice made and nice to read, the only thing you should have improved is that you should have had much more monsters to choose between, cause it seems in some sections u just put in something from another section just because you didn’t know what to write f.ex. under blacksmith section you could’ve written about hill winds and mammonite. you could also referr to dungeon quests job quests and stuff like that under each section.
    But again i think this guide was very nice and easy to read keep up the good work theres only one way to get better y’know

  27. BARE

  28. A very nice guide! I just got back from RO after a few years and this kind of helped a lot. I was just wondering why people would prefer skeletons over zombies in an early level? Zombies are softer in my opinion.

    Anyway, I hope you could improve/update this because this is a good reference to new and returning players alike. So yeah.

  29. Great and helpful guide. Though this guide should be for players familiar to MMOs. Players new to MMOs would get bored from killing the same monsters over and over and over again~ Cheers to you!

  30. newbie here, i am having a mage as my first character. planning to go on as wizard and found the kill wolf until lvl 50 as much better idea.

    my mage could not even survive payon cave floor 2 and i never survive getting to floor 3 because of those skeleton archers

    flywing is too random sometimes it teleports me to a place where all skeleton warriors gather. i am easily bullied there.

    recently on my lvl 45 the wolf has been giving rather low EXP and it takes too long to get to lvl 50 now. can you guys please provide me any other solution ?

    oh btw the exp multiplyer said to be 30x iirc and….the skeleton archer could damage me about 120 damage while i only have 660 HP….6 attack is enough to kill me. and i never even reach the portal to floor 3….
