L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

Welcome to L2 Interlude Wiki!

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

Frozenn’s Adventure Guide

Hey everyone, I decided to start working on a guide to help players (new and old) getting started on their journey in Lineage 2.

This guide will comprise of mostly early game quests (for XP and Adena), early / mid game farming spots, ways to save Adena, and overall tips for your adventure in the word of Lineage2.

At the time of writing this guide, I have been playing Lineage2 for around 12 years (with breaks in between), across multiple chronics, servers, and overall “times” of the game´s history.

This guide was written based on an x1 Interlude server, in time I may make more guides for different chronics/rates. Chapters 0 and 0.5 will be aimed at newer players, so fill free to skip those if you are familiar with Lineage2.

 Chapter 0 -> Getting Started

 

The first and most substantial decision you will have to make is “What class should I play?”. While this is a very subjective decision and you should take your time to decide, I will provide an overall basic explanation of all the classes in the game.

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

Fighter classes ->  Humans

Warrior -> Warlord -> Dreadnaught:
Fighter/Pole user, heavy focus in PvE content by taking on large groups of mobs at the same time. Can be used as a “meat shield” in PvP, while making use of his AOE stuns.

Pros: Good farmer, can help boost others, overall tanky

Cons: Not much damage in PvP, slow, if stun is resisted, provides little value.

 

– Warrior-> Gladiator-> Duelist:
Fighter/Dual-Sword user, a mixture of decent PvE and Strong PvP, scales well into the later stages of the game, good coverage of ranged and melee attacks, resistances, and HP/CP pool.

Pros: Great 1vs1 potential, has ranged attacks to deal with threats from afar, great overall “bulk”.

Cons: Relatively expensive to gear up, rough leveling experience.

 

– Knight -> Paladin -> Phoenix Knight:
Tank/Sword&Shield user, with extremely high defenses and HP pool, with a focus on side-heals and keeping threats away from the rest of the group.

Pros: Arguably the bulkiest tank in the game, with decent sudo-heal capability and CC potential.

Cons: Rough leveling experience due to lack of damage, doesn’t bring much utility to a flight due to being overall slow.

 

– Knight -> Dark Avenger -> Hell Knight:
Tank/Sword&Shield user, has the use of a panther pet that can deal decent damage, has a mixture of stuns and debuffs.

Pros: Panther can deal decent damage in a group environment, great 1vs1 due to being tanky and having the pet.

Cons: Panther can be expensive when you are just getting started, steals XP from you which makes your leveling a bit slower.

 

– Rogue -> Treasure Hunter -> Adventurer:

Assassin/Dagger user, has great mobility, decent HP pool, and can Lethal Strike for a quick kill.

Pros: High speed due to Dash skill, can open chests for the chance of extra Adena/enchants, if backstab procs Lethal it can end fights extremely quick.

Cons: Very dependent on the chance landing critical/lethal strikes, cant reliably use backstab until later on due to being very easy to turn around and avoid the skill that way, overall slow leveling.

 

– Rogue -> Hawkeye -> Sagittarius:
Archer/Bow user, has great mobility, decent HP pool, can do very reliable and constant damage with the chance for high critical hits.

Pros: High mobility lets him stay out of range of most threats, can survive a couple of hits due to decent HP pool, crits for high damage.

Healer/Buffer, undoubtedly the best healer in the game, has access to a decent amount of buffs.

   ————– Chapter 0.5 -> What Are All These Buttons ————

So you made your character, you are now entering the world of Lineage2, but before you go, here are a few tips and tricks that will help smoothen your humble beginnings.

-> You can automatically use your soul shots/spirit shots by right-clicking them in your action bar

-> Once you are level 6, you get a free no grade mid-tier weapon of your choosing from the Adventurer´s Guide, you can get a free D grade weapon once you get to level 20 and complete the first class transfer. (These weapons are removed from your possession if you PK any player, so don’t be a naughty boy).

-> Once you are level 8, you can start getting buffs at the Newbie Guide, you get new buffs until you reach level 15. You will start losing buffs once you reach level 20, losing the last buff at 25. This buffs last 1 hour and make sure you keep taking them every time they run out / you stop by town, they make life a lot easier

-> If you are low on money, you have access to a free 5-minute long cast Scroll of Escape by using /unstuck

-> Use your SP (Skill Points) wisely early on, those are rough to acquire early in the game

-> Pick up everything you see on the floor, you will need every single Adena!

-> Use websites like https://lineage.pmfun.com/ to look into what your skills do before investing in them.

-> And the most important part, HAVE FUN! And don’t be scared of asking for help, we were all new at some point.

-> You need to buy spellbook to learn your skills under level 40, there is a spellbook seller in every Temple/Chruch in towns. After you reach level 40, your spell books drop from mobs around the map.

-> Use the command /loc to know your exact location, so you know to which town you will go once you use an SoE.

-> Teleportation Tricks is a way to get to your destination for a cheaper price by teleporting to different towns, teleporting to farm zones and using an SoE, or simply running. For a more in-depth explanation, please check https://l2.ggames.eu/quests-f28/saving-adena-with-smart-teleporting-t153.html?sid=ac57fd08dd5bc0e8dcc26d1d0e87875a.

-> Make sure you take the Quest for Fishing Shots whenever you see the Fish Guild Member (He is located in the Grocery Store of every town) for free whenever money.

 

 

 ————– Chapter 1 -> A New World ————

(Here is where the guide starts, from here on out I will assume you have a basic knowledge of the game, if you ever have doubts about anything here, feel free to reach out to me!)

 

This guide will be useful for every class since I will add routes that I recommend for every type of class, at some stages of it every class will be farming in the same spots, but with time there will be differences.

So you just joined the game, you checked your keybinds, changed the audio settings, and are ready to explore, so let’s get it started!

 

Level 1-6

This is the most basic stage of the game, at this point, you really just want to kill whatever you see to get XP, so kill some gremlins in your corresponding starting zone until you get to level 6.

[NOTE->Be sure to speak with the Newbie Helper to get a quest for soul-shots/spirit-shots, after you complete his quest, speak with the NPC next to it]

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

Level 6-8

Once you reach level 6, go speak with the Newbie guide in the town to get more soul-shots/spirit-shots and newbie traveler tokens, after that you will want to speak with the Adventurer Guide and receive your new weapon. Once you have it in hand, you will want to take a quest that will reward you with more soul-shots/spirit-shots, every starting area has its own quest so look for the one respective for your race. You will kill mobs related to this quest until youreach level 8.

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

Human Quest ->The Guard Is Busy

Elf Quest ->Hunt The Orcs

Dark Elf Quest ->Chains Of Slavery

Orc Quest ->Invaders Of The Holy Land

Dwarf Quest ->The Hidden Veins

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

Level 8-15

Once you reach level 8, you will want to turn in the previously taken quest to receive more soul-shots/spirit-shots for your journey. You will then speak with the Newbie Guide and chose to use the newbie travel tokens, you will then teleport to the Elf village.

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

Once you are in the elf village, go towards the Grocery Store and speak with Herbie, take his quest called Collect Spores.

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

Your goal is now to take this quest, go kill the mobs for the quest (Spore Fungus, they are just outside the elf village), complete the quest by speaking with Herbiel, take the quest again, and repeat… until you reach level 15… (Goal is getting decent Adena from reward + XP from the mobs) [It should net you around 50k adena].

 

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

Level 15-21

Once you reach level 15 and deliver the quest for the last time after murdering thousands of Mushrooms, you will want to head towards Gludio for your next step, a good way to get there for almost free is 1->speak with the newbie guide, use the travel tokens and teleport to the dark elf village, 2->speak with the gatekeeper and teleport to the neutral zone, 3->use /unstuck or a scroll of escape and you will be in Gludio.

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

Once in Gludio, you will want to speak with Curtis and take his quest called Grim Collector. The next step is speaking with Samed, he will give you the Anatomy Diagram which is needed for the next step of the quest.

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

Now you are ready for the next grind session, you will go to Ruins Of Despair and kill Shield Skeleton and Skeleton Infatryman until you reach level 18.

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

Once you reach level 18, you will want to move to Ruins Of Agony, once there you will hunt Skeleton Scout and Tracker Skeleton Leader until you reach level 21.

L2 Interlude Leveling GuideL2 Interlude Leveling Guide

Once 21 is reached, you will be done killing… skeletons?… well, at less they were dead already…

Speak with Varsak to assemble complete skeletons from the pieces you collected, this is to obtain as much Adena as possible from the quest. Once the skeletons are assembled (Note: you may fail the assembly of the skeletons, its completely RNG) speak with Samed to turn in the quest. [It should net you around 80k-100k adena].

 

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

Level 20 -> First Class Transfer Quest

Now, once you get to level 20 you can do the quest to change to your first job. I won’t be describing each quest individually here but I will provide links for them.

Level 21

This is where the first “split” happens, up until this point every class was meant to take this route, but after you change jobs, certain classes start to gravitate towards certain spots and routes.

From this point forward, routes will be divided into Magic, Fighter, and Support.

I will also sprinkle in suggestions for party farming options.

Note: After you complete the first-class change, you get access to a permanent D grade weapon from the Adventure Guide.

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

You also receive Shadow Coupons as a reward from finishing the class transfer quest, you can trade these coupons in any master in Gludin or Gludio (I usually speak with the High Priest), these weapons are more powerful than the Adventure Guide ones but they have a limited amount of usages (90 minutes, only consumed when equipped).

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

 

 

Make sure you register in a Priest of Dusk or Dawn to gain access to the catacombs/necropolis.]

L2 Interlude Leveling GuideL2 Interlude Leveling Guide

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Level 21-30

 

This is when you will start to see different classes going to different locations since after you finish the first class transfer you will start noticing differences in skills around the class archetypes (Melee, Magic, Support). My recommendations for farming spots/quests around those areas are as follow.

 

  • Melee -> As a melee class, you are still similar to other melee classes overall, so you can farm more or less around the same locations. My recommendation would be the Necropolis of Sacrifice if you have access to a Clan Hall for buffs or a buffer friend. L2 Interlude Leveling Guide   If you go to this location, be sure to take the quests Yoke Of The Past and In Search Of Fragments Of Dimension from these 2 NPCs.

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

  • If you do not have this, your safest bet would be the Abandoned Camp.
    L2 Interlude Leveling Guide
    You can kill 1 by 1 inside or make trains on the inside bit. (Note, you will need at less an attack speed potion and HP potions to make trains.). For more information on how to make a decent train and kill it safely check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErwkpgSgBmA&feature=youtu.be. If you decide to farm here, be sure to take the quest Vanquish Remnants from Leopold just outside the Grocery Store in Gludin. This quest has an unlimited amount of items so you can keep killing monsters until you are ready to leave this place and then turn it in for Adena. [Note: You can do smaller / bigger trains as you see fit, this is purely an example of one that I usually do].
    L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

 

  • If all of the above proves to be difficult for you, I would recommend going to Dion Hills and hunt for Monster Eye Searcher. This spot is aimed at people with very bad gear and no buffer/clan hall or dwarfs since the monsters have good odds of spoiling animal bones. Sadly there is no quest for this spot. [Note: The mobs may use a magic spell sometimes, so be sure to have at less no grade jewels equipped.]

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

 

  • Magic ->Same principle applies to magic classes, you are all still very similar to one another. Your best bet will be Abandoned AbandonedCamp. You can kill 1 by 1 altho I highly recommend making trains since, unlike the melee classes, you will attack from afar, therefore, removing the need to have good armor and having more money to invest in your weapon and shots. You can make trains here even without buffs, all you need is a Speed potion that you can buy from the Grocery Store (altho obviously if you can find a buffer/clan hall, the process will be much faster). Check above to see the quest for this location. For more information on how to make a decent train and kill it safely check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxhYVS4YrO4&feature=youtu.be.

 

  • Supports ->This is the group that will have the most difficult time at this stage since there’s a lack of overall damage abilities at your disposal. The supports can be divided into 2 groups, the ones that have skills to kill the undead and the ones that do not (basically only the orc shaman lacks this skill, you got the short end of the stick). I will recommend a different route for both of these groups, but from this stage onwards, I highly recommend that you look for a group with DPS classes since they will want your support (be it buffs or healing) and you will want their damage.

 

  • With Disrupt Undead- Your best bet is Execution Grounds, this zone posses a wide range of Undead mobs from a decent level range, so you can stay here until level 30. The only quest for this place is Hunt Of The Black Lion. To take this quest, you must first complete Vanquish Remnants. I highly recommend doing so because this quest can net you a good sum of money. The quest requires some explanation so I suggest you check out http://archive.l2portal.com/Quests%20WalkThrough/Mainland/019.html for it.

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

  • Without Disrupt Undead- Now, this is by far the hardest class to level up since you lack the damage of the DPS classes and the Disrupt Undead from the other supports. Your best bet is to either 1by1 in Abandoned Camp while doing the quest OR killing the eyes in Dion Hills. At this stage, I recommend that you try to make parties for farming since it will take you a significant amount of time and effort to do it all by yourself.

 

Level 30-35

You have spent 10 levels getting used to your new skills, so its time to ramp the challenge a little bit. This section isn’t too different compared to the last ones, but the farm zones are rougher, especially if you arent making slow upgrades to your gear. From this point onwards, a single mistake may lead to your demise, so let’s focus and get into it.

 

 

  • Melee -> After spending so much time in that pesky catacomb, you would hope that it was finally time to see the outside but… The reality of things is that there is no better place for XP and Adena(Note: You make Adena by selling the SealStones/AA) then the catacombs. If you spent the section of 20-30 in the catacomb, your next place to farm will be Catacomb Of The Heretic. Once again, this location is mainly aimed at players that possess access to either CH Buffs or a buffer friend.

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

  • If you lack strong buffs, my suggestion will be Partisan´s Hideaway. This location is safer due to mobs only being x1, so they are easier to kill. You can either 1by1 or make trains in this spot. You will also get some more items for the quest Vanquish Remnants. To see my pathing when making trains here, check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMrpcVK_ZSs&feature=youtu.be
    [Note: When making trains in this location, try and use a Bow to lure mobs and avoiding taking damage this way. Trains can be bigger or smaller, depending on your current gear/skill.]

 

  • If both of these locations prove to be hard for you, I would recommend Execution Grounds, its the safes place that will hield a decent amount of XP. If you go here, take the quest Hunt Of The Black Lion by speaking with Sophya outside the Warrior´s guild in Dion.
    [Note: To take this quest, you must first complete Vanquish Remnants, I highly recommend you do so since this quest can give a decent amount of Adena]

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

 

 

  • Magic -> For mages, there are now 2 options where I would personally farm, one for those who have buffs and one for those who do not have them.

 

 

-> With Buffs- If you have access to buffs, be it CH or another player, I would recommend going to Partisan´s Hidewaysince you can make decently big trains ther in a safe manner while getting some extra items towards the Vanquish Remnants quest. To see my suggestion on how to train in this location, check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTx26I8Uwrg&feature=youtu.be.

[Note: To make trains without getting hit, I suggest you learn Wind Shackle or Curse Weakness and keep it at level1, that way you keep the mana cost at a measly 3 while having a fast casting spell to pull the mobs.]

 

 

 

-> Without Buffs- If you lack the access to buffs, my recommendation would be Fields Of Silence. The monsters here are 1/2 HP, which means they die in 1 or 2 spells, making it a very cost-efficient place to farm (It also drops herbs). Once you hit level 32 you can also take the quest Black Swan from Gosta, the guard just outside the Grocery Store. This quest requires you to kill the mobs in Fields of Silence and has 2 separate rewards, the first being Adena and the second being an item you can trade for basic materials (which you can sell or save for your crafts later).

 

 

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

 

 

  • Supports ->This part is, once again, divided into supports with access Disrupt Undead and supports without. Once again, the farming areas are very limited for both of these groups, so grouping up is strongly suggested. None the less, if you decided to farm alone, my recommendations are as follows.

 

 

 

-> Supports With Disrupt Undead – My recommendation is pretty simple, stay in Execution Grounds. The reason for this is due to the fact of a big lack of spots with undead monsters (or at less spots that are worth it). By staying here, you will move down to the area with the Ghouls. By staying here you will also keep on collecting items for the Hunt of The Black Lion.

L2 Interlude Leveling Guide

 

 

-> Supports Without Disrupt Undead – Once again this is by far the hardest set to level up, grouping up is almost mandatory at this stage and it will keep on becoming worse so at this stage I advise you to find a clan or a group of people to tag along with. If you still want to try soloing, your best bet is Fields of Silence. Mobs are 1/2 HP so they won’t be as rough to kill as in other places, once you reach level 32 you can take the Black Swan quest for some extra income.

 

 

 

Level 35-40

 

 

This is the last stretch before you reach the level for the 2nd class transfer, the leveling here is mostly consisted of staying around the same locations as mentioned above or changing in between them depending on your conditions (lack of buffs, groups, etc).  Partisan´s Hideway and is no longer viable to XP in, I suggest those that were farming in this location move to Fields of Silence. [Note: Don’t forget to take the quest Black Swan].

 

 

The main change in this bracket comes in the form of preparation for the 2nd class transfer quest.

 

 

Ther are usually 2 options, you do them individually (The quest is divided into 3 parts, you gain access to the 1st part at level 35, the 2nd part at level 37, and the 3rd part at level 39), or you wait till level 39-40 and do them all at once. I prefer to do them all at once since some of the parts take you to the same place.

 

 

 

Second Class Transfer Quest

 

 

 

Congratulations, you have reached the point where you will start to feel the difference between every class, not just the class archetype. All you have to do now is a…. 3 part quest line…. that usually takes 8 hours…

 

Jokes aside, this quest is extremely time-consuming, and as mentioned above, there are 2 ways to do it. I will leave links that will send you towards this quests if you chose to do them individually, and after I will share the guides for doing them all at the same time, dubbed “The 3in1 Guides”.
