Your leveling routine for Levels 100-200 is very much identical with x50 Experience Rate. You can always follow the pointers and guidance I have shared in the earlier sections regarding [[The Complete Elemental Master Guide by Goldie#Leveling as a Sorcerer|Leveling as a Sorcerer]]. They are still applicable for leveling up your Sorcerer on a x1 Experience Rate. The dungeons you will frequent for each level stages are also provided [[The Complete Elemental Master Guide by Goldie#Dungeons|here]]. The gears you will use and their level requirements are also provided in the table above. I have compiled all of them into a table for convenience and accessibility. I've also mentioned which enchants to go for, where you can farm them, or if they need to be crafted first. Upon a successful job change to Sorcerer and once you are '''Level 100''', you can finally start accepting [[Board Quests|Dailies]] by talking to '''NPC Roxanne''' ('''Daily Hunts''') {{#navi:moc_para01|50|23}} inside Eden ('''@go eden'''). Daily Hunt turn-in quests are also available at the '''Main Office''' {{#navi:main_office|123|36}} ('''@go main'''), but it is more convenient to turn-in your quests directly to Roxanne inside Eden since you can also turn-in your Eden Board quests if there are any.

In order to make your leveling grind as a Sorcerer bearable, I highly suggest you use Sorcerer exclusive items that will either reduce the CD of your skills like '''{{#skill:2449}}''' and''' {{#skill:2447}}''', cards and equipment that will boost the damage output of your x1 character so you can level up faster. We all want to ease the suffering of leveling up as a Sorcerer and you can only do that if you follow the set of gears I have listed. Think of it this way: sacrificing some of your EXP gears in favor of Sorcerer progression gears won't slow you down, it will slow you down even more the moment you can't kill the mobs fast enough, so better to run the right gears on your Sorcerer. That being said, I encourage you to use the shadow staves {{#item:26118}} + {{#item:550012}}, the costume enchant stones  {{#item:25419}} + {{#item:25420}}, and the shadow gears {{#item:24297}} or {{#item:24310}}. The sooner you get to equip a {{#icon:22008}}{{#linkitem:22008|Temporal DEX Boots}}or {{#icon:22001}}{{#linkitem:22001|Temporal INT Boots}}with {{#icon:4876}}{{#linkitem:4876|Runaway Magic}}at Level 99, an {{#icon:22197}}{{#linkitem:22197|Illusion Leg Type B}}with {{#icon:29548}}{{#linkitem:29548|Modification Orb (Spell Buster)}} at Level 130, or even an {{#icon:470023}}{{#linkitem:470023|Automatic Leg Type B}}with the enchant {{#icon:310122}}{{#linkitem:310122|Automatic Orb (Spell Buster)}} at Level 160, the stronger your hunting capabilities become due to Sorcerer skills benefitting so much from INT. For estimation, it took me at least an hour or two (2) rounds of farming '''Rudus Floor 2''' to collect {{#item:25723}} and {{#item:25669}} that were exchanged to '''NPC Sentinel''' {{#navi:sp_cor|108|130}} at '''Cor''' ('''@go cor''') to randomly get the modules needed to enchant the [[Illusion_Armors_(17.1)|Illusion equipment]]. As for the [[Automatic_Equipment_(17.2)|Automatic equipment]], I farmed enough {{#item:1000103}} while also farming for {{#item:25223}} at '''Second Power Plant'''. I then exchanged the Varmeal Tickets for random automatic modules to '''NPC Yecheong''' {{#navi:ba_in01|87|380}} at '''Varmundt's Mansion''' ('''@go 47'''). In order to get guaranteed epic modules of my choice such as {{#icon:310143}}{{#linkitem:310143|Shadow Spell}}, I exchanged 17,500 Varmeal Tickets to '''NPC Yecheong''' {{#navi:ba_in01|87|380}} for a total of 50 {{#item:1000104}} or just buy the epic modules straight from market vendors if available.

Your main partner Elemental to use as a Sorcerer is either Lil' Ms. <span style="color:blue;">Aqua</span> or baby <span style="color:green;">Ventus</span>. If you don't mind consuming a {{#item:12710}}, I suggest you summon Adolescent <span style="color:blue;">Aqua</span>, place her on '''Level''' '''1''' '''{{#skill:2456}}''' ('''Passive Mode'''), and she will endow the property of your '''{{#skill:2449}}''' skill to the <span style="color:blue;">Water</span> property as well as boosting the damage output of '''{{#skill:2447}}'''. By endowing your PW to <span style="color:blue;">Water</span>, both your main damaging skills PW and DD will benefit simultaneously from cards like {{#item:300124}}. Collectively known as the '''17'''.'''2 Card set''', {{#icon:300124}}{{#linkitem:300124|Blue Pitaya Card}} will remain a staple and will work as a set with {{#icon:300081}}{{#linkitem:300081|Research Assistant Bot Card}}and {{#icon:300104}}{{#linkitem:300104|Bookworm Card}} to give you tons of  '''{{#skill:2449}}''' and '''{{#skill:2447}}''' skill modifiers for these two (2) skills will be your main skills to level up as a Sorcerer. Running full <span style="color:blue;">Water</span> setup brings back a lot of memories during the 3rd Job era when Sorcerer who has always been most proficient at summoning powerful Elementals of <span style="color:blue;">Water</span> and <span style="color:#00BFFF;">Ice</span> has been famously known to specialize as a <span style="color:#00BFFF;">Frost Mage</span>. However, if you prefer survivability over offense, you can summon Child <span style="color:green;">Ventus</span> instead and place her on '''Level''' '''2''' '''{{#skill:2456}}''' ('''Defensive Mode''') for her free {{#item:12710}} + '''50% FLEE Rate'''. There will be places where <span style="color:green;">Ventus</span> is more ideal to use than <span style="color:blue;">Aqua</span> just like in [[Illusion of Frozen]]. You don't want to endow your PW to <span style="color:blue;">Water</span> here and leaving it on <span style="color:gray;">Neutral</span> or endowing it to <span style="color:green;">Wind</span> are smarter options.
