The Eureka Grind

[Burn One Twice]

How do you do it bros? I hit level 6 and it's like I hit a wall. Exp is non-existent and i'll go insane grinding out these levels solo.

I read you could do FATE/NM trains but everyone warned against it as a melee since mobs have untelegraphed AoE's.

I just want to be a glowy boi DRK

do your challenge logs, best thing to do is go into general chat and shout "LvL 6 SAM LFG CHL" and hope a growing party of 4-8 people will send you an invite so you can go and kill 60 creatures of each element to complete each challenge log entry, completeing 1 challenge logs is like an instant level up in the early stages, in the teens, i am level 14, it takes 2 challenge log completions to level me up

Thank you, ill try your tip tomorrow when the servers are back online.

So barring leveling via the challenge log, am I simply done with Eureka once I've cleared my CL or is there other content within Eureka that gives a generous amount of XP?

You either do challenge logs, slaughter mobs with a party of hop aboard the NM train. Shout out your level, class and lfg nm and you'll get invited by someone to follow the train to take on all the "fates" in the area, ofc you'll be running past high lvl monsters who will one shot you so it's best to be a RDM or healer so you can at least contribute something to the cause and revive others.

You don't grind solo. That's your problem.

in Eureka you (almost) never go alone. Like really. Too dangerous, too unworthy.

You either join a party of SAME level +-1 at max and you go mob to mob 1-2 levels higher then yours. That way you get reasonably nice XP.

Or you need to do fates (target fates +2 levels max, any higher and you only get little XP and you most likely die to every single hit.. if you even make it there, don't be greedy on this).

You can learn every boss and I'm almost sure every attack is avoidable even as melee (everything is 100% avoidable on zone bosses, that's for sure). At fates you are always in group, so dying is not a problem.

Do your weekly challenge log. Again, best done in parties, which often do the fates if they spawn. And best done after weekly reset. Just spam challenge log LFG for your level.

With challenge log, and bonuses, and a fates it goes pretty fast there now. Just respect the content, keep people around, and don't die alone anywhere!

join the train. anything else is a waste of your time. this includes challenge logs since they are weekly crap. with 5.0 so close you cannot wait months to reach elevel cap. as the day 5.0 hits eureka dies out fully.

plus you NEED the crystals from the fates anyway for your weapon. otherwise there is no reason to do eureka if not for that. so may aswell start getting these while gaining levels. the train is by far the fastest method.

solo leveling is not effective (excludeing the reflect cheese but thats only pyros onward) so dont even bother with it is my advice.

just shout lfg train and hope to find a train. since youre late to the party chances are the train is small or no longer exsists. in that case youre pretty much out of luck for any decent speed of progression.

In Anemos you join the NM Train and AFK your way to victory.
In Pagos you join the NM Train and AFK your way to victory.
In Pyros you sit at the Aetherite AFK and frantically spam "LFG NM" when an NM pops
In Hydatos you sit at the Aetherite AFK and frantically spam "LFG NM" when an NM pops
