Progression Guide

Initially your level is capped at 52. To ascend to level 55, you must prove your worth in the Tier 1 progression instances. You can choose to face the challenges alone or with a group. For group instances, you should gather a team with a Might 6. The suggested Might for each instance can be found in the Might-Table.

Once you have assembled your team, venture forth to Permafrost or Nagafen's Lair and seek out the NPC at the zone-in. Hail Marta in Permafrost or Linda in Nagafen's Lair, and request the instance. Then, with your team at your side, face the fearsome Lady Vox and Lord Nagafen. In the solo path, you face the savage GrimClaw and Allizewsaur.

But your journey does not end there, for you must gather the flags of each era to unlock the next. Seek out the spirits of the defeated progression NPCs and hail them with each of your characters to claim the flag. And when you have gathered all the flags of an era, the instances of the next era will be open to you.

Do not forget to check your progress with Sir Daniel at the hub, for the road ahead is long and treacherous. When you have completed an era, remove your augments from your charm and hand it to Charlotte. She will return to you an upgraded version.

All instances up to and including Kunark are designed for a party size of 6. You can reach the maximum allowed Might for normal mode with 6 characters. Experience in a group of 6 is about 5-10% better than in a raid of 6.

Starting in Velious, the instances allow more Might than a progression group of six can fill. Velious is also quite a step up from Kunark in difficulty. The Velious progression path A can be completed with 6. Path B is a bit tough for 6, and particularly NToV is something you may want to do with a partner and choose the easy mode.

In Luclin you probably want to either team up with someone or play 9. Seru and Emperor can be done with 6, but Vex Thal will be rather slow and challenging for 6.

Even though not impossible to beat with 6, Dragons and Idols is designed for two people playing 6 each or someone playing 9.

Soloing and 2-boxing it is possible to beat some of the group progression targets thanks to the Aura of Might which boosts smaller party sizes, but it is harder than with a larger party.

Custom Equipment

• Equip your Charm of Might, insert the initial augmentation and note that it has a damage shield click-effect.

• You can get free potions from Nacho.

• Fluffy and Roughy sell some starter gear, including rings with click-effects (dd for caster, heal for priests).

• All NPCs level 5-49 can drop Fluffy and Roughy gear. All NPCs can drop Shared Adventure potions, so keep an eye open.

Progression

There are various NPCs in Plane of Knowledge that can send you places. Pick which ever zone you like. Level up at your own pace. If you wanna level up quickly, then Kurn's Tower is a good choice up to level 24. After that, Dalnir, Nagafen's Lair, Velktor's Labyrinth (40+) and Veksar (45+).

Using Origin AA gets you back to Plane of Knowledge.

Auto-scribe, and auto-skill-up is enabled up to level 44. After that you can buy spells, for example in the library in Plane of Knowledge or visit Mazikeen.

Permafrost offers your first instance, you can get from Marta inside regular Permafrost. Completing this instance will grant you at least 1 Token of Might as a reward. Reclaim the Token (inventory, alternate currencies, reclaim) and visit Walter for your first shopping.

Here is a list of all available instances.

Custom Equipment

If you keep your party's Might at 18 or below for Tier 2 progression instances, you will be put in mode Hard- and receive a Hard-Mode-Treasure Chest containing an invaluable coin, which you hand to Cloe to unlock new items. Hail Cloe to see what quest rewards you class can get from her.

Progression

Your group progression targets are now Innoruuk in Plane of Hate and Cazic Thule in Plane of Fear. Innoruuk is slightly easier than Cazic Thule. Both instances are requested from Amenadiel in Plane of Knowledge. 

The solo progression targets are Cazel and Phinigel Autropos. It's recommended to do Cazel first. He can drop a health potion with unlimited charges and a helmet with underwater breathing, which is very helpful for Phinigel, since he is in Kedge Keep - an underwater dungeon.

Custom Equipment

• Get a Fabled Blue Band of the Oak from Walter for all your priests and Paladin.

• Get the level 60 "Taunt"-Trinket from Walter for your tank, such as the Trinket of Anger for Warriors.

• Get the level 60 Ancient Spells from Walter.

• Emmett sells various Velious armors.

• Vulak drops various legendary weapons. These weapons are usually upgrades to epic weapons and also feature an augmentation of slot type 6.

Progression

You may find that you need to gather some extra pieces of gear and AAs before tackling the Velious progression targets. Besides the custom equipment, you can find decent items in Veksar, Velketor's Labyrinth, Temple of Veeshan - Halls of Testing or zones with fabled NPCs suitable for your level, such as Karnor's Castle or Sebilis.

In Velious, there are two distinct group progression paths available. The first one, known as the Giants-path, is relatively easier and involves facing King Tormax, The Final Arbiter, and Velketor the Sorcerer. The second path, called the Dragon-path, requires challenging Zlandicar, Lord Yelinak, and Vulak Aer.

These raid bosses in Velious present a significant increase in difficulty compared to those in Kunark. While it was possible to tackle Kunark raids without reaching the maximum level or having top-tier gear, Velious demands higher requirements. Specifically, you will need a capable tank with at least 8,000 HP and 1,500 AC, or even more with your own buffs, to effectively handle these encounters.
