Coming back after really long break...leveling and gearing question

[sn1p3]

Hello there folks, i just came back this week into the game. I played 1.0 and i was back for 2.0 played for maybe 2 month then i quit (doing castrum meridianium over and over to get gear was boring) I got bard,warrior and monk to 50 my bard is not too bad but my warrior and monk have only af and poor weapon. I'm continuing my storyline and im now at the thornmarch quest (i unlocked all the new dongeons too) what is the best way to gear up my char now? (sinc in the day it was castrum spam until you get darklight then speed runs of high dongeon)

And my second question is; im leveling scholar what is the best way to level up atm (im 35) back in the days it was fate farming but there no more fate party going on soooo what the best new way to level?

Do any duty roulettes you have access to and make sure to unlock all the dungeons. More Roulettes unlock as you clear sets of the endgame dungeons that will help you get lots of stones. Crystal tower is awesome for gearing up but you have to deal with potential trolls/idiots however it drops nothing but i80 gear and a lot of mythology stones so if you get lucky you can get a bit better gear fairly quickly.

You can buy i90 gear with the now much more plentiful mythology stones and also buy i100 stuff with the soldiery stones that drop from all endgame stuff. The new dungeons are fairly quick compared to the original dungeons and drop a good amount of stones and they also have i70 gear as potential drops so it's worth taking your time to do em.

Coil 1-5 is easier with the echo buff and can be done through duty finder so once you meet the item level requirements it's another great gear source.

As for leveling up, dungeon XP is crazy good now. If you run the highest level dungeon you have access to you can probably get 1/2-2/3 a level with each run. Don't forget to unlock the challenge log too. It's basically free XP and money for doing stuff you would already be doing.

I myself am a new 50 and have only been playing for about 2 weeks ~ really enjoying it so far. Other than running roulettes daily and crystal tower weekly for the one drop what else should I be doing? Im still working my way towards relic weapon and unlocking other dungeons but is there a certain dungeon to spam for myth stones or do you just spam roulette? Im just trying to gear up quickly so knowing what to run would help

Any advice is appreciated!

Can I just aak a possibly stupid couple of questions: the level cap is 50, yes? That's when we start doing the endgame?
And the endgame itself - I assume it consists of running the same dungeons over and over, a la the WoW model, to achieve tiny incremental 'faux-levels' of gear inprovement. Could someone tell me how many different dungeons such a player would do in a week (not repeats, I mean how many different ones Ee tgere to choose from), and on average, how long does a dungeon take to clear?

Yes 50 is the level cap at the moment. Yes you run the same dungeons over and over getting better gear like wow. There are approximately 10 level 50 dungeons and a few raids. The dungeons take 20-40 mins to clear, they are fast. The raids takes 45-60 mins on average.

Cheers. And the gear we get doing these things over and over is used to make doing them over and over subsequently a little bit easier, yes?

How many times should obe expect to run any specific dungeon before your gear is maxed out?

Crystal Tower isn't locked out anymore. You can spam it all you want.
