Two quick questions

[neonhigh]

Yo! Having fun with the game so far, but I'm confused about something, so if anyone can help me that'd be great:

1. What are the best places to level throughout the game; specifically around level 30. I just got to the north for the first time and I feel underleveled.

2. How to level my qimen. It's still at base and it's making it impossible to find anything hidden.

answer for 2nd question. There is some kungfu. For example: "Qimen Dunjia" 12 lvls +3 qimen per lvl, "Qingchengs inner Energy" 12 lvls +1qimen per lvl, "kunluns inner kungfu" 12 lvls +1qimeen per lvl and final that i found "everest reverie" 24 lvls + 2 qimen per lvl

Here's two places I recommend for leveling. In both places you can hit all the enemies in 1 4x4 AOE attack without needing for them to move. If you are strong enough, you can finish the fight in 1 attack and level to 100 in less than an hour. Make sure you use "Enemy-Attracting Smoke" to spawn enemies quickly.

Act 1 - the grass to the east of Chengdu
Act 2 - the purple grass to the northeast of Xiaoguan

An amazing AOE ability that I recommend for farming is "Feather Robe Arcana".

It only requires evil roots and male character, so there's no skill level requirements which means it can be used on any build you play. 4x4 range and it has mana drain so you never run out of mana using it. You get the skills really early in the main story too. I use it on all my ng+ characters.

also, if this is your first playthrough at only level 30 i'd suggest either farming Act 1 a little bit longer till you have around 2000+ HP or joining a sect like shaolin who has no quest prerequisites and using their units to carry you because in Act 2 if you dont have at least 1000 speed, you will not have a good time. There's items you can obtain that will boost your speed by 250 each, get a couple of those first and then you'll be good to solo farm Act 2.

The easiest way is to get an NPC with higher Qimen to join you (and then put the items below on them):
Sword Savant Summer from the Waterway of Taihu Lake,
Dawg Bao in Lin'an.

Ancient Jade + 30 Qimen - during Li Boy's quest in the first town you can say you already found his treasure to get him to reveal where it is.

The Rosy Glow Manner has a fan you can steal with sufficient skill that raises your Qimen by 20 once you've improved it (requires 100 finger though).

Divination Robes raises Qimen by 50 but I forget where you grab it. Pairing the Divination Robe, Ancient Jade and Painted Seven Star Sword gives you set bonus of 50 for a total of 130 from gear alone.

I don't claim to have all kung fus as I have not yet joined a Sect nor did I start the game with theft but here is a brief overview of all the Qimen raising skills I have:

1 hidden weapon,
1 swords,
2 formations (that require skill in swords),
4 inner kungfus (3 of which require the Taoist root),
1 speed,
1 melody,
1 special,
1 wine art (with a finger requirement),
1 saber,

Being a Taoist Root swordsman is the easiest way to raise Qimen on yourself.

Nameless island. Don't be intimidated by the level gap. If you have a full 5-people team with around 1k5 HP each, you can easily farm there. (and stealing a bunch of old coin as well as Blood Bodhi)

Yooo! Thanks for the help, but I realize that I complete screwed my mc up stat and skill-wise so I'm restarting. All the help you've given me is definitely going to come in handy.

You don't have to restart. Just reset all talents and skill at the beggar in LinAn city.

Don't you need to cut your dck to practice it, says so in the description.
