    Flame seals

    Hello guys,

    I was thinking of maybe solo'ing my archer to 50 only doing company leves for seals. Do you guys think it would be a waste of time? I don't like the dungeons or NM hunting... :/

    I do lots of leve so I figured...

    Company leves are pretty inefficient for xp, and they quickly get tiring. The reason for this is that although they yield larger xp than a regular leve, most of the company leves force you to take 15 minutes to complete them. The most efficient way to get xp is to run leves on one star. They can be completed in 3~4 minutes and just rack up the ending xp.

    Unfortunately, they are also an inefficient way to farm seals. Level 40 company leves give 120ish seals. That is 120 seals per 15 minutes vs. the 300-600 seals for a quick Toto run.

    If you really dislike NM camps and dungeons that much, then perhaps it is still the best route for you.

    You can cancel the leves that you get that give the "Stand there for 15 minutes and attack 5 mobs".

    Even the kill x mobs in 15 minutes still requires 15 minutes of time. The real xp on leves is in the ending xp. The Sergeant level leves to collect crystals or w/e does not require 15 minutes and is a decent way to level, but it's like a 1/3 chance, and that would be a lot of wasted leve allowances.

    At least for the Immortal Flames there are 3 different "poke" leves, so they appear closer to 50% of the time. Usually I go out there and get the Poke leve 3-5 times in a row, burn a halitali leve to reset to GC guy until he has the poke leve again. I think I usually get it 8-12 times per 4 Hali leves I take out there to reset the GC guy when its the /wait15m one.

    Its still not as many seals as other things but you don't need anyone to help you, and if you are lower level I guess you can XP off it.

    If you're co-doing the leves for seals anyway... you might as well do the stand there for 15 minutes instead of abandoning it. Suggest having a TV or something to watch while you're doing that.

    If you're going for pure experience points solo, take the regular leves (stack up 3 of them at yer favorite camp, bookmark that camp, and blast through them).
