Is easy path best for leveling? I let them kill monsters while I tank

[Sy_Accursed]

Not really.

Hard path = more event completion xp and more hp on monsters = more damage = more xp.

 

Should do easy to like 30/40 ish then med to 60 ish then blast the hards to 99.

they kill easy ones much much faster than hard

 

and what about hard followers? are they worth letting them fight? or another tehnique?

[Hedgehog]

Hard followers should only be done on hard paths (people who say otherwise have no idea what they're talking about). Rush through the events as quickly as possible.

I'd conjecture it can be wise to do them, Rolayne more so than Smiddi, on meds until they can see ahead just because it enables you to avoid being slowed down too much by some of the more pita events like snakes and swamp boat.

and easy and medium?

[Gwasha]

Easy and medium followers on the easy or med path, and when they can see ahead, go to the path so that they can attack shit. Essentially you want the easy and med followers to be able to fight as much stuff as possible, so in a sense it would be mediums. Personally, I never did hard paths until they were able to see ahead and I saw it was something quick. The risk of a swamp boat, the morrttn place, [bleep]ing shit tons of snails, just sucks.

 

Then for the hard followers blast through the easy paths until they can see ahead, and pick the desired path from there.

It would be far more helpful if you could explain why hard followers should only be done on hard paths before you say things like that, you know.

 

Presumably it's because the xp reward for completion outweighs the extra time taken to do the task, but then again you're running the risk of having your follower killed.

[Hedgehog]

The xp gained over easy/med far outweighs the extra time spent doing the event.

What Meredith said and to counter, it's not hard to keep the follower alive. If he got a snail on him (or whatever monster) and was taking heavy damage, all I did was attack the said snail and it went on me instead.

[LambShankz]

The xp for hard paths isn't much more than easy or medium. I rushed through easy paths with Smiddi and did mostly hard with Rolayne and they stayed the same level for most of it and were only a couple levels off at the end.

[Sinkhan]

Keep in mind that a "couple levels off" means a lot more near the end, since level XP requirements scale.

[Gwasha]

Yes, but they actually don't scale as much as one would think. It's only a few runs difference in level gains, from like 98->99 then as 90->91.

[Contractor]

Check and compare the exp bar for the hard characters before each and do a path of only easy and only hard, the difference between the exp gains is hardly noticeable and easy paths are much faster. (For hard characters)

[VonMedo]

but what about easy and medium characters? let them kill easy routes or med and hard ones?

[Sy_Accursed]

Easy and med the best choice is hard because more fighting = more xp.

But you have to balance their abilities agaisnt the route you take.

1-30 easy is the best bet

30-60 med

60+ hards should be easy peasy.
