* You have done your research, mastered the basic (I leave it to your wisdom to decide which level range you want which non-core equipment will be worn and what equipment you will skip), and that you have invested and plan well for each level range, e.g.:

** Temporal boots and manteau for level 100 and up
** +9/+11 {{#item:400023}} combo with {{#item:490099}} or its derivatives (red/blue but not really recommended unless you need HP/SP leech early and you don't need acd% this early) starting at level 1
** Temporal boots and manteaus for level 100 and up

Mine is expected to reach level 230-250 in around 30 min, and 250 in around to 1-2h depending on your performance and investment level.


Non-core Equipment will not be specifically named on the phases below (this is not a newbie guide), you will just have to do the best with what you currently possess. Though result may vary if your non-core equipment are far too weaker compared to the original assumption.

Steps:
Steps:
1. Payon Dungeon + Eden Quest, don't claim yet.
2. Orc Dungeon + Eden Quest, don't claim yet.
3. Amatsu Dungeon + Eden Quest, don't claim yet.
4. Keep hitting either Orc Dungeon 2 mobs or the kill Novus outside Abyss Lake (is also Eden Quest) until Rebirth.
5. Rebirth and kill mobs on Payon Dungeon until you change class into high archer, then start to claim Eden Quests as you progress.
6. Repeat Step 2, 3, and 4 and accumulate claimable Eden Quests but do not claim yet until job change to Job 3.

Primary Skill: Arrow Storm


Primary Skill: Arrow Storm -> Aim to reduce 0.3 seconds fixed casting time.
Core item:
*+9~+11{{#item:18110}} with 2x {{#item:27361}} at lvl 100.
*+9~+11{{#item:400022}} and +9~+11{{#item:18178}} with 2x {{#item:27361}} at lvl 130. Recommended setup is either +11{{#item:400022}} combined with cheaper {{#item:1000521}} or +9{{#item:400022}} combined with more expensive {{#item:1000522}} at lvl 170. Or source the fixed cast time reduction from other items such as Illusion Sprint Mail + Shoes Set combo at +22 total refinement.
*+9~+11{{#item:400266}} (upgrade hammer exist) with 2x {{#item:700054}} or Yormi-Scalleg combo. Economically not really recommended though because the gain is miniscule to unreformed version but gain is a gain and there's no other better bows until Gale Storm is spammable reliably.
Steps:
1. Claim previously stacked Eden Quests.
2. Do and claim Illusion of Moonlight until lvl 150.
3. Do and claim Illusion of Teddy Bear until you are strong enough for Illusion of Twins.
4. Do and claim Illusion of Twins until lvl 190.
5. Do and claim Varmundt's Powerplant2 until job 4. Should be viable if your AS is strong and spammable enough, otherwise just do Illusion of Twins until you get into job 4.
