TRICKS OF THE TRADE
leveling made easy
EARLY LEVELING//
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
o1. STARTER PACKS//
At lv.1 your best friend will be looking to buy Starter Kits, or making at least 10 mules to blow through the first level. They do not cost you a dime (unless you buy them from other users, but even then its minimal for an all-included package), and have a very high success rate.
o2. RIG FORMULAS//
In the beginning, before sellers caught on, this WAS a good way to storm through levels AND potentially make gold back in spades by either selling or playing the RIG you created. This isn't NECESSARILY true anymore. I still stand by this trick though, because while some of the more recent rigs like Valfore Academy, Neverland, and Double Rainbow's fail items have now become inflated, some of the older ones HAVE NOT. It's a huge gamble, but things like Screen King, where the fail is still only 10k you still have the chance of recouping on. Granted, I'm a bit of a gambler with RIGs ANYWAYS, so this might not be the option for you because it can get really pricey if you're looking to make a huge return on a recent RIG.
o3. AVOID BIFROST FORMULAS LIKE THE PLAGUE. (but DO buy the crafting materials in bulk, you will probably need them down the line and we do not know yet if the materials rotate out like Dernier Cri and Backyard Bargains do).
I hate to say this, because I did initially buy Bifrost formulas, and don't want to dissuade anyone from using them completely, but for early levelers who DONT want to spend an arm and a leg, until more ingredients/components pop out, I would advise against it or it'll get expensive FAST.
INSTEAD, find the formulas you CANNOT GET THROUGH EITHER BIFROST OR CASH SHOP. Some of them are low-cost, low-brow materials. If you can't use a hoarde of Starter Kits to get through lvs. 1&2, and simply don't care to play ZOMG to get Charge Orbs for ORB AGGREGATEs, then these are the best options for you. It will take a LOT of research, and again, there are multiple guides at the top on how to do so.
o4. ORB AGGREGATES ARE YOUR NEW BEST BUDDY. (and apparently so is ZOMG)
You WILL need to play ZOMG! for this option, and farm them yourself, but to be honest, the Orb Aggregate formula is not only a lv.1 formula and available for anyone to use, but it's a component that is HEAVILY UTILIZED IN LATER LEVELS. Also, in ZOMG! there's a good chance that WHILE you're harvesting Charge Orbs, you'll probably get some other components that are ZOMG! exclusive as well. A guide on these is at the top in the first post.

INTERMEDIATE LEVELING//
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
from level 3 to 4:
Formula 3: Fausto's Bottle
Formula 3: Sundae's Treat
Formula 3: Fondue the Chocolate Bunny
From level 4 to 5:
Formula 4: Sibyl's Incantation
Formula 4: A la Fondue
Formula 4: Cupcake Confection
CHEAPER, BUT LONGER OPTION:: Formula 4: Black Neko Cosplay
The ones possible from level 5 to 6 all require the same materials which are:
Brain Akazariua
Currently Fabric Swatches are insanely rare though so the easiest way to level would be to continue on the level 4 formulas which on their turn will prove to be expensive to level since you'd need 30 to reach the next level.
lv. 4 formulas give 4exp @ lv. 5. (50% of their original)
lv. 3 formula =1exp @lv.5 (25% of its original)
