Can anyone suggest a leveling location for a Orc Destroyer level 56? He has top C 2HS weapon and BW with Black Jewellery set. I have a Human Cleric that helps with buffs and basic heals.
I have been lvling of the mobs on Aligator Island, but they are starting to get too low exp for me. I am not bothered about having to grid, but I don't know where to move to next... Any help would be apreciated.
I have tried to get good parties, but I don't yet have a pole, I had to sell it to get BW Set and I play early PM European time, so getting a party has proven difficult recently :D
One thing would be to get a GS or Guardian Sword to enhance your dmg and make it easier for you to get into apo parties and such. C-grade weapon makes you look not that good in the eyes of all the leet kiddos who want only top stuff and think that everyone else needs to be prancing around in top gear the second they can use the grade. Anyways, EV is soloable even without buffs at all and if you have a small healer/buffer it is possible to go for a long time without any rest. Especially with all the herbs now. You might also want to try the start of Frozen Labyrinth. Around the same lvl and nice for soloing too.
And either way you go, remember to take the quests for those regions for some added income.
I am told there are no herbs in EV. Nevertheless, it's a good place to level. CoA is also good, but I suggest don't try Patriots without VR, the front rooms are tougher than CoA. The Great Sword with Focus is good advice. Also, as you move through your upper 50s, do some research and consider if you want to start some of the quest for A grade gear. They mostly start out of NPCs in Aden or Giran. By the way, my main is a level 58 Destroyer. They are fun to play.
Thanks for all of the replies. I thought that having a wider range of buffs was the best idea rather than a good healer (pots are always available). What do people think? I had planned on Prophet for more buffs (Berserk/Haste) or should I go Bishop for the heals?
You should go SE for buffs and heals ^^ Haste comes in a potion but VR is SE/WC. Unless you count dance of vampire too.
And about EV, I was there in C3 so dont know if herbs drop there ^^ But even without them it is a place where you can hunt, especially with a buffer in tow.
You should go Prophet for buffs. Buffs for attack speed, accuracy, and crit damage/rate are VERY useful for a Destroyer. VR is also very good, but you won't get that with a Prophet. Then again, with any class of healer/buffer, you're going to get something useful, and be missing some things. IMO, a WC is the best buffer for a Destroyer, followed by either PP (for Haste2) or SE (for VR). If you were to go with a Bishop, you would be sapping it's mana with constant healing, and you would level slower than with a PP because you don't have the buffs.
At 56 EV will pay you well (get the blacksmith quest) but most of those mobs will be green or even light blue to you. The treant elders and satyr elders will be white I think.
I left EV at 55 cause I was looking for more exp. It was OKAY but I had been there since leaving Alligator at 49 or so and I was sick of it! (lol).
Out of aden the silent valley region (not IN the silent valley) works well for me now.
I can find all the mobs there white and some still yellow and as a melee the tigers (though they stun) die pretty quickly to a sword. Get fair drops there too and I like the buff pots that fall since I'm solo.
Nice to get "blueprint: summon wild hog cannon" and sell for around 600,000 too! Got 2 of them so far!
Just a thought.

Thank you for the advice. I am saving up for one now. As people are being so helpful, can I ask for some advice on which SA to get?
My options are:
Health - Increases maximum HP by 25%.
Critical Damage - Increases P. Atk. by 247 during a critical attack.
Focus - Increases Critical Attack by 68.
Focus! Other SAs are also helpful. But Focus will help you economize on shots. This is useful both for conserving adena and for going longer between re-supplies.
Thank you for all your help. It is the first time that I have posted on the forum witha question and it is nice to see that there are helpful people out there :-)
