k i got to 23 in melee fighting 11 in magic 14 in crafting and 11 in harvesting.

1 I got a QL 20 1 handed sword and a 20 1 handed dagger. im duel weilding
I find myself having to kill the same 2 star mobs i was killing to get from lvl
10-20 when i try 3 star mobs it gets alot more difficult to the point of
almost
not being able to kill at a speed,xp ratio that is better than the 2 star mobs
I have looked around and explored trying to kill difernt types of mobs. the 1
star javilin( srry spelling) birds still disarm me and kick my !@#. i cant get a
better sword till lvl 30 melee as ive been told you have to be that lvl to get
40 in strenght to b able to weild a QL 50 sword. so is this just one of thoes
spots were its a grind getting to the next weapon?? or am i missing
something ???

2 Crafting. k i took crafting to start so i had light boots and gloves, then as i trained up i trained chest then pants (all light) then i took jewlcrafting, and next im thinking about either weapons or jewlcrafting 2 or picking up medium chest... im not sure but im starting to think im spreading my skills out to thin which i dident know could happen?? so im wondering if my logic is correct that you can spread to thin. Should I restart and just stick with just 1 crafting skill ??? advice plz =)

Tks in advance for all advice =)

Craft SP is always rather scarce.

1. Typically lower level mobs are the way to go... espescially when soloing. There's less downtime and as you mentioned the XP/Time ratio is significantly higher. In groups with dedicated tanks, healers, etc. is the time to advance to the mobs of higher level than you.

Mob level system is determined by the color of their stars and the # of stars with each star = (approximately) 10 levels. So your lvl 23 melee vs a 3 star mob is lvl 23 vs a lvl 30.


2. Crafting... in part I'd say "do whatever you enjoy the most." But if you seek advancement.... I'd say pick one tree (light armor, heavy melee weapons, jewelery, etc.) and stick with it for a while. Crafting SP is scarse until you begin to excell in one tree of crafting and once you excel in one tree the SP begins to add up... but it takes a LOT of crafting before SP is "spare."

My 2 cents,

For melee, make sure you mix accuracy in your stanzas along with increased damage, specially when you move up a level in difficulty. Dual wielding is difficult solo because it uses a lot of stamina. If you haven't done the melee missions, go back and do them till you get the axe, it's probably much better than the sword you're using. If you're still having trouble, team up. Exp flows much faster in a team and it's much safer.

Kill Javings with magic. They fly slow and die before they get to you if you start nuking at range. If they disarm you when they are nearly dead to nuke them then to try and re-equip an amp or weapon.

Crafting is better if you stick with the missions before branching out. The missions will require you to pick specific skills, but then will give you experience to pick up the skills you want at the end.

All good answers... but a 2 star Yubo and Gingo are not the same. Learn to find the sweet spot for your level and XP gain... There is much to learn grasshopper.

Don't restart because you have 3-4 crafting trees. Having one main tree and a couple of minor trees that give you SP will make you a better crafter for your level. You can afford more HP/Focus/Stamina for your armor. In the long run, I found, concentrating on one or two crafting trees makes you learn about different recipes easier.
