How are people leveling fast?

I'm level 48, and this took a week. I'm seeing people saying they are leveling within 8 hours, I would like to know how it is done, so far I've just been doing the level 40 dungeon

  • 1 - 20/22 = Main story quest line, the red ones.
    20/22 - 60 = dungeons and kumas royale, either grind BAM's or do the red story quests for your level while in the queue.
    60 - 65 = There is a questline specifically for 60-65 that showers you with XP and gold, do that + Sabex Armoury runs (level 60 dungeon).

    To add to this:

    20-60: Queue for dungeons, and kill BAMs, while wearing the correct crystals for your class, and always keep your avatar weapon up to date and +9 enchantment. Kumas is not worth wasted effort, as you might only with 20-30% of the time.

    If you happen to make friends with a healer in a group, and they are on your server, stick with them until they log off lol. You'll be 60 in no time.

    1-20/22 = Main story (Or power level if you can get off of Stepstone early, don't ask me how it works, people in PC did it before stepstone got locked)
    20/22 - 53~ish = Dungeons and Vanguard bams while waiting (Throw in a Kumas if you want)
    53-60 - Mob vanguards, Devas is the main one i can remember, you do this due to dungeons starting to take awhile to clear
    60-65 = Story + Sabex/Catacombs

    EXP boosts are mandatory, friends for faster ques help

  • Wish i knew all this a few days ago lol either way i know for the future now so whatever.
  • I did only this to level 65:

    Level 1-65: Main Story Quests
    Level 20-65: Doing the Dungeons for the main story line once or twice

    I did nothing else, since I was already overleved with the main story quests. I missed also some dungeons since I was overleved. Only from 60-65 was a little bit harder, since you need much more exp for it.

    In my opinion leveling to level 65 is much to easy. I know the "old" Tera on PC, where you needed 2-3 weeks to level 60. Now you get easily to level 65 in no time. Also with Elite status, the level phase is really a joke.

    I wish that the level phase would be much slower, give less exp and become more difficulty again. Today, Tera is really no longer a challenge compared to the "old" Tera.
  • The problem with the "old" Tera was the amount of quests you had to do in order to level, it could be very tiring, especially if you did it more than once. The Relice weapons and Vanguard Request were put ingame to give people a choice of how they wanted to level, and to do so really fast.

    Ps. There was never a challenge to leveling up in Tera.. at all. It only took longer and required many, many more quests to finish.
  • 1 to 41 in one day. Mystic is a beast.
  • Maybe Challenge is the wrong word but there's definitely a lack of a sense of progression. It's just too fast in my opinion. Zipping form zone to zone without a notion as to what's going on. I remember it taking me months in FFXI, Lineage 2 and Vanilla WoW to cap.

    I just followed the red question marks an did each dungeon as it became available, sometimes multiple times for quests
  • Looking at it from another perspective...

    I'm taking my time, following the story quests, and doing a number of zone quests as well, although I'm so far ahead of the story quests now (level wise) that I'm skipping a lot of the zone quests now. Between doing quests I've been queuing for dungeons.

    I'm currently lvl 47 (I have a job ;) and hope to hit 60 by the weekend.

    I've tried one Kuma (to get the gold from the Vanguard quest), but I ended up leaving part way through, I won't be doing that again...

    I've no interest in getting to max level ASAP, instead, I'm trying to enjoy the game, explore the zones/story, and level at a casual pace.
  • I've been doing Red quest, dungeon, zone quest taking my time. I hit a snag last night as Kaia is nowhere to be found in the Daquest (spelling) woods.

    I'm sitting at 52 and not in a rush.
  • I want to ask, how can you level slow ? I mean, I didnt knew Tera until first technical test and already at that moment, I noticed that the leveling was waaaaaay too fast. I was hoping that the amount of XP received was up because of the betas and that it would be lower once game is released.

    But no. You can easily get to 60 with only the main quests. That's horrible. You don't have to do the sidequests, you don't explore the lands that much. It is far too fast, it's a real disappointment.
  • All I've done are orange story missions & instances, I'm lvel 47, about 2 levels ahead of the story missions.
  • I remember playing Tera in 2012 and actually having to do side-quests and go through zone by zone.

    Why? Please explain to me why fast levelling is a disappointment for you.

    Nobody forces you to not take your time and do every single quest that is available or explore the zones as much as you want. Sidequests should never be a must do to reach max level. They called sidequest for a reason.
