What are the best methods for powerleveling 20-30 for an enchanter, and maybe even a cleric. I know some classes can take advantage of aoe with bards but the enchanter is not one of them. Any advice?

FD powerleveling, with a monk or necro.

Many classes can so it - some better than others.

As a bard for early 20s were I tasked with it I'd probably just pull a dozen or so dark blue mobs (dblue to you) and aggro lock with aoe slow/snare - low level nuke damage each once then let mobs die to ds. As you get higher it's harder to straight up tank nonstop.

Charming also works. Bard dots a target down to bear death charm and break and let lowbie finish it off. Goal here is to find high level mobs that will give a ton of relative xp per kill.

Having a pbaoe makes it a lot easier.

Well, in that case I'd have to say "grab a 50 druid and assist their soloing with thorns/regen/sow/skin".

I know Daldaen can take most classes up to 30 pretty easily with a druid PL. I've never done a druid PL, but I've heard they sort of drop off at level 30 and above compared to other types of PLs.

If I were going to PL an enchanter, I'd get mobs that give max experience to enchanter, beat them low with melee, charm them, break charm, and have enchanter do killing blow to get like 10-12% exp per kill.

Again, this is basically a FD PL; one advantage bards might have over other classes is that they can snare mobs and keep them from running away. I always wonder how monks stop the mobs from running away.

FD powerleveling, with a monk or necro.

I'll bet 50k I can PL any class 20-30 faster than an FD PLing monk or necro or SK.

I will not however bet against a bard PLing an AOE Class.

I'd argue a competent 60 Druid is the best speed PLing 1-50 excluding bard AOE/Chardok proxy PL. 50-60 I haven't really bothered trying, but compared to a proxy I doubt it's great... But I may dick around with it in the future.

A low 50s Druid will taper off around 25 though.

depends on the class, when I power leveled my buddy on his level 7 epic rogue, I did it on my 60 shaman. getting him to 50 was such a joke.

I will be the guinea pig for you guys to test if you want, just from 20-24 is fine on my shaman but if you really want more testing done getting to 29 is ok by me.

I know I know, its crazy that i'd offer myself for testing purposes but I believe in the greater good. For all mankind, lizardkind, and those frozen veggies no one likes.

Drop me a line in game for when you wanna hookup and begin this research project, mornings (pacific time) are best for me.

Cleric 20-30 for the ench. Bard 20-30 for any class with decent pb aoe (and preferably a manastone / fungi :P)

i see Shm 20-30 not listed, needs to be tested. I'm so eager to assist you guys in this I won't even charge for it, for science and because I don't have any money.

If the class can pbaoe, bard from the minute said class gets aoe on.

For classes that can't aoe, I'd wager druid up until the point that it's more efficient to kill big mobs for 10% of a level per kill. Any class that can feign death or charm can work. I'd wager the speed of PL is more dependent on the skill of the person doing the powering.

ragefire arms + potion ds, manastone / donals for mana :3 I can grab maybe 12-15 gnomes at once and DS em down while the person gets tags. It's quite fast. I can do larger pulls and refill quicker than druids, even with manastone / robe of the spring.

a wager! plot thickens.

To accurately record all this data I'll need separate power levels from each interested party, we can divide it into brackets such as 20-30, 30-40, etc.. I can run logs and record footage for later analyzing.

I am taken aback by the enthusiasm of everyone wanting to get me leveled up, truly remarkable. Drop me a PM in the morning so we can see who wants to get rolling first.

I still think that is slower than a good druid in Kedge. I really don't use too much mana unless I screw up or I am PLing 40+. I can hold 80% mana for the entire duration and be actively pulling the entire time for 20-30 with just Robe/Manastone. Even better now that Mask is finally fixed $$.

Necro PLing in Kedge, I PLed a cleric from 40-51 in there in 12 hours(was double exp during the ddos attacks). Works with any class but cleric sped the process up since he would heal my lich damage.

Ok to it looks like we got the 20-30 bracket covered folks, who would be interested in 30-40?

and this bit of self amusement in played out, carry on.. nothing to see here.

Not to jump on your parade as it looks like you have things covered but if they needed a second victim to re-check their numbers, I will volunteer my Druid. I have AoE spells to speed up the process. :D

Unless you're getting PLed by a bard, AOEs are pretty useless for powerleveling on this server. Cause anyone other than a bard will be pulling such high-red cons that you have 0 chance of sticking a nuke.

Bards just are quicker because they can pull so many blue-low red cons at a time.
