Myles' Mechanic Guide

Question..?

How long does it take to get from Level 1 - 30?

I wanna see how long, compared to how long it took for my Bowmaster (1-30) in El Nido..
It took, from right after patch, about 8 pm to like.. 2 am... about 3-4 hours basically?

3-4 hours? You kidding me?
I can understand that on a Resistance char from all the quest spots being so crowded, but on an Adventurer?

Maybe the fact that it was a brand new server will help my case?

And not to mention that I was one of the first to reach 2nd job, if not, one of the first Hunters in El Nido?

Honestly it's pretty much the same for 1-30 as a Mechanic as any other class. You can't start comparing class training speeds especially at that level 'cause even if there is a difference it's minimal since it takes almost no time to hit 30, especially these days.

Who cares how long it takes someone to hit level 30 anyways? Rofl. If it takes him 3-4hours cool. Took me probably just as long, I wanted to explore with BB y'know.

Exactly. I wanted to see who was playing in this new server.. what it's like.. plus BB changes.. tyvmuch.

Well 8 'til 2 is 6 hours, not 3-4, and you DID ask how long it should take, so criticism was invited by yourself. Could take 2 hours, could take 10, depending on hard you grind and how much you prioritize pure leveling speed... you should know your own pace better than other people on this forum. It'll probably take a similar amount of time if that was your usual pace; any decrease in time will largely be due to deviation from your past attempt in effort or action rather than class.

For 2nd job, I'd rather have booster maxed and rocket not maxed, just so that I can use it as a visual indicator for lucky dice's cooldown in 3rd job.

Am I making a mistake if I do this?
I mean longer booster sounds pretty nice to me, and it would be a nice change from my battlemage.

I would think so. Not maxing rocket takes away 42% damage to have booster for 70 more seconds. Really isn't any point to it.

I'd max booster too. Having a paladin as my main, I feel that the longer a buff lasts the better it is. Having to recast buffs is just annoying, and since rocket jump isn't really something I'll be using to attack monsters I don't see how that 42% damage is going to affect my training all that much.

I would rather not max Heavy Weapon Mastey because both gatling shot and flame are replaced on 3rd job.

But siege mode has a cooldown.
And wouldn't you want maxed heavy mastery just for the DoT on flamethrower?

Level 10: +3 Prototype (3); +1 Gatling Shot (1); +1 Screw Pucnh

We get 5 skill points at lvl 10? Woa nice!

All Resistance characters do.

Yaaaa

Why use Flamethrower?
If I don't feel like Drilling them.. HAMMA TIME.

Ditto. I've only been using Rocket as means of moving 'round the map, rather than using it to attack with.
I prefer longer booster.

lets say i would rather max booster than something else. what would yall recommend not maxing instead?

heavy weapon mastery (do gatling or flamethrower see any use or improvement later on?)? jump? hammer (13 hammer seems good enough to me, but only if its a skill that gets replaced in 3rd job)? pretty sure i will want max portal since the timer significantly increases over those 7 points....

im wondering which skills wont see much use after 2nd job.

Psst..!

How am I doing? :o



(Level 45 doing 8.7k with Hammer Arm)
