Lineage2 Leveling (30-35) Quest Guide
This is another of those awkward times. Not many good quests, and not many good hunting grounds, esp. if you solo. Breka Orcs and most of Death Pass is good for solo melee fighters, but Clerics/Oracles should start sticking to groups whenever and wherever possible, preferably in Catacombs or Necropoli. Wizards and Sorcerers will probably bounce back and forth between soloing in places like Bee Hive and grouping in Cruma Tower or the Catacombs/Necropoli.
If you can get together with 4+ people in a balanced group, you might explore early parts of Dragon Valley or head through Death Pass to Leto Lizard country. Leto Overlords are excellent EXP, very good drops, and not too difficult if your group is reasonably competent. The pit beneath the Ivory Tower is not too bad either, and spell books are always in high demand (Lineage 2 gold).
At the moment, my level 33 Palus Knight is back to soloing. I've been hunting in Gorgon's Flower Garden. The mobs are not too difficult to solo, but there is considerable downtime and I have to watch out for people running trains. I took down a train of Bugbear and Harpies the other day, but it was touch and go and cost me a bundle in potions and DSS. I would much rather be grouping in Pilgrim's Necropolis, but my friends are 35 and busy doing their first class change quest.
I suppose it bears mentioning that Cruma Tower is also doable from 30-40 (Lineage 2 money). Personally, and for a variety of reasons, I don't recommend it, but many players swear by it and the vast majority of people who are now 60+ spent much of their early game in Cruma Tower or in the swamp surrounding it.
