Hi~ I'm Jetago, a Hyper Novice Main~

And I decided to write this guide to provide a couple of tips based on my experience for anyone interested in following the path of the Physical Hyper Novice *-*

This is a reference of a leveling path that I tried myself with a brand new Novice using only the free equipment provided by the Eden Group.

With this strategy I managed to get my Novice from 0 to 200 in about 2 hours.

Lv 1~10 - Starter Quest

Follow the MuhRO starter quest through Prontera field and the Main Office until you reach the Eden Group and get your Starting Gear from Lothaire and Shadow Gear from Lucy.

Lv 10~45 - Anthell

Once geared, pause the starter quest for a while and use the Warper to Anthell Dungeon and kill some Ant Egg, Andre, Deniro and Piere until you reach the Base level 45 required to change jobs, make sure to use your 7803.png Novice Battle Manual (7803) before you reach level 40.

  • Super Novice Priority Skills
    • 5.png Bash - Main attack skill
    • 34.png Blessing - Stat Booster, increases Str/Dex/Int

Once reached level 45 return to the Main Office, change job to Super Novice, head back to Eden and get a 500035.png Paradise Super Novice Sword (500035) from Labraham, then continue with the starter quest, talk to Lunos to be taken to the Poring Village Instance and complete it.

Lv 90~99 - Stapo Hunt

Get the Stapo hunt quest from the Lv 90 Eden Board, repeat this quest until reaching the level required for the next job change, Stapos are located one map south of Veins Town.

Once you reach 99/99 return to the Main Office and change jobs to Expanded Super Novice.

At this point you must get the Advanced Paradise Equipment Set from Louis and Labraham in Eden.

You will need the following materials.

  • 15x 7318.png Old Pick (7318) - Obtained from Pitmen in Einbech Dungeon.
  • 15x 7200.png Elastic Band (7200) - Obtained from Wootan Shooters, located two maps south of Umbala Town.

Lv 100~110 - More Stapos

More Stapos? Yes, mainly to get some job levels for new Skills.

Lv 110~150 - Illusion of Moonlight

Illusion Dungeon hunt quests give a great amount of Experience, and this one is pretty easy, get the quest from the Main Office Board or the Npc at the entrance to the dungeon.

Lv 150~160 - Lasagna Dungeon 2

Get the «Kill 60 Monsters in lasa_dun02» quest from the Lv130 Eden Board, this quest will be used not only for levels but also to get some 25223.png Eden Coin (25223) that we will use to buy new Shadow Gear and Consumables.

Use 138.png Enchant Poison to increase your damage dealt to Combat Basilisks, they will also drop 607.png Yggdrasil Berry (607) , use them to fully restore your HP and SP if necessary.

With the 25223.png Eden Coin (25223) obtained from the Lasagna dungeon quest.

Rent the Advanced Shadow Gear Set from Lucy for 20x 25223.png Eden Coin (25223)

And buy Consumables from the Eden Vending Machine

These will be really helpful for the next steps by greatly increasing your defenses and HP/SP regeneration.

Lv 160~170 - Illusion of Vampire

Get some 523.png Holy Water (523) and 68.png Aspersio in your repertoire of skills, this will be of great help since almost all the monsters in this dungeon have Shadow and Undead elements.

be careful when hitting the Black Mushrooms, they can cast Self Destruction which will surely insta-kill you if you are near, 51.png Hiding can save you from the explosion.

(Or get them with an alt character?)

And turn them in at the Main Office board, these quests reward you with a great amount of Experience but can only taken once a day.

a single turn in of all four type of fragments can bring you from Lv180 to Lv190.

Then keep repeating the Recon Robot hunt quest until you finally reach Lv200.
