THM Solo leveling

Hi guys, it's my first time posting here. I was wondering if anyone had any advice on perhaps a good spot besides leves that would be good for leveling my THM35 till like 40? If this has already been posted elsewhere and I missed it, i apologize in advance. Thanks ^^

To be honest, leves and their completion-bonus is probably still the way to go, especially if you have guardian's aspect points to invoke. Otherwise you're down to grinding.

As a general rule though, Beastmen (Ixal, Amal'jaa etc) are a good option.

I think you probably are one of the 1st ones to solo lvl THM since the THM update.
Maybe you should investigate and start a guide ;)
GL (And sorry I wasn't much help!)

If I still played I could tell you in a heartbeat, but I don't, so I'm unfamiliar with what's possible anymore. Good luck.

Don't panic if this is moved to the THM sub-forum.

Anyhow, I capped THM after 1.20.

Parties is the way to go, we're pretty useful now! Grinding solo is not really that rewarding.

Here's a tip: go to Cassiopeia Hollow (seeing you're a fellow Storm Corporal) and do the company leves. BUT! Do not waste Guardian's Favor on the "protect the NPC", do it on the "Kill as many as you can" ones. You'll get an absurd amount of exp - guaranteed.

For non-leve leveling, as I said before - parties. At those levels, I think a party to kill raptors would be the "standard".

Hope it helps!

Thanks for the replies and advice guys. I'll try to find a party or make one. And I guess during solo play Ill try out that Cassiopeia Hollow Company leve. I have about 180 guardian aspect, so that should last me a while. Thanks again guys!

Update: I just tried this and did about 10k exp in the 15mins I'm given. Looks like I'll be spamming this for a while. Thanks! :D

stop doing guildlvl and do GC quest instead, it give much more exp in total/quest (if you clean all the mobs)

You can aoe grind off molting mites east of nophicas wells. I did this and behests from 35 to 42. Run in with a chocobo and kill them with fire.

edit: apparently square couldnt keep up...forums still say I am lvl 38......heh.

WTF?!

/10char

As a THM who solo/duod from 10-50 I have one bit of advice that will save you eons of time.

Find something weak to lightning 4-5 levels above you (I think there are some rank 44-45 Toxic toads near bald knoll) and start casting Thunder > Thandara like it was going out of style. Can easilly chain 5 if you have enough MP, only issue is resists can often make or break your chain so good gear is a must.

As in, I haven't played since 1.19 and I have no idea what can be done with combos or what has enabled/restricted soloing possibilities.

I don't even know what to say to that Xoo, really you got me twisted boo.

Near 40 you can try killing ants (forget the name:p) they are south of Halatali (near Drybone)

Uhhh..? /shrug

Easy. Go to cedarwood and north and slightly east there is a cave where kobolds are they are 35-37. Can easily get 10k xp in 11 mins there. Mix in behest and leves and you will be 40 in no time. When you hit 37 there is another cave north of cedarwood with syphids (bee type mobs) near entrance. Go inside and the kobolds there are 37-39 those will get you to 40. With thm thunder/thundara combo that will kill the lvl 37s and 38s. Add a single blizzard and thunder/thundara combo will own the 39s. Super fast xp.

Don't worry, she won't be able to post useless posts anymore in a week or two lol.

Like it was said, GC missions have great exp, and you get seals, and the elementals drops good drops that can sell for a lot when they add up.

If not that, exp parties are still good and most popular at the higher levels. If not, Jynx hit the nail on the head.

There's a few groups of fish in this area that die very fast. This spot is also good for a mana burn party.

Toads and Kobolds are very weak to thunder. You should be able to 2 shot anything close to your level.

While the bulk of my thm leveling came pre .20 I can vouch for most squishy mobs such as Toads, efts, and slugs taking obscene amounts of damage from thunder.

leves out at the knoll have you facing off against these mobs pretty regularly, grab some and go get reasonably dangerous!
