Nealix66 Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 I couldn't find anything but my search-fu is admittedly weak. I am currently level 21 and so far it sounds like levels 1-15 is DFB or the AE Tunnel mission. After that 15-25? is DiB and Yin? What comes after those? Finally back in game after 7 years and want my first level 50! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troo Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 (edited) googling "COH leveling guide" returned many options. I'll find & post a link to a decent one. classic non-AE/non-farmie guide ('leveling quickly' is not super accurate for the new version of the game. still good info) https://cityofheroes.fandom.com/wiki/Strategy/Leveling_quickly also helpful https://paragonwiki.com/wiki/New_Player's_Guide_to_Life_Outside_the_AE_Building From zero to level 35/40 (suggestions, not definitive) Spoiler Death from Below (DFB) 3-4 times (to get the +acc,+dmg,+rec, and/or +def hydra enhancers (good to level 22)) Drowning in Blood (DiB) 2-3 times (to get the +tohit,+dmg,+rec, and/or +def shivan enhancers (good to level 30)) Positron 1 Important - If you hate the character or powers at this point, re-roll. Don't waste time on one you don't love. Positron 2 Exploration badges when not doing the above AE badge mission Safegaurd missions (badges) Misc TFs as teams form (Synapse Task Force, Katie Hannon, etc) Finish up some accolades That typically can get to 35-40 with more than enough to buy IO enhancements. (I just do SOs until IOs provide high values) Note: this skips a lot of content and story arcs which can result in losing out on 300+ reward merits. If you've got lots of funds on other characters it's not a super big deal. if someone is new, that's a hit. After 35/40 there is tons of content. Spoiler Plus: Ouroboros Rikti War Zone Cimerora content Patrons Hamidon Level 50 used to take players somewhere between 100 and 250 hours of play. It has greatly decreased. Definitely use xp boosts from the P2W vendor. 200+/- hours sounds like a long haul but there is so much content and interesting players along the way. There were really only a handful of levels that would feel like a grind. It was a little different then - we didn't have travel powers until level 14, had to unlock capes, auras & costume slots, earn re-specifications (to revamp your entire build from scratch) and walk uphill both ways in chest high snow..

A lot depends upon what you consider "quick"; You can certainly level to 22 using the AE tunnel missions, accumulate enough inf to fully kit yourself out with level 25 IOs at level 22, then start soloing missions with their difficulty/team size cranked up from there on out...

RikOz Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 I'd like to see a guide that organizes when I should talk to certain contacts so that I'm not missing half of the storylines due to outleveling them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
