Route from level 1 to 400

The levels below are what travel requires. You can level past them and go later — but not earlier.

Level Where What to do
1 – 10 Lorencia · Noria · Elbeland Hit whatever shows up. Use the vault Bless on the starter set.
10 – 20 Lorencia · Elbeland First trip costs 500 zen. Gather your own first set.
20 – 30 Devias Cold and full of Bull Fighters. Good zen for the level.
30 – 50 Dungeon · Vulcanus Gear worth keeping starts dropping here.
50 – 70 Lost Tower 1–3 · Arena Excellent chance doubled.
70 – 90 Atlans Underwater. Excellent doubled too.
90 – 140 Lost Tower 6–7 · Tarkan Tarkan asks 140 and 15,000 zen.
140 – 150 Tarkan · Aida At 150, the first evolution.
150 – 170 Aida · Kanturu Kanturu has three areas and asks 160.
170 – 220 Icarus · Karutan Karutan has the best excellent rate in the game.
220 Devias Second stage, with Marlon.
220 – 280 Karutan · Swamp of Calmness · Land of Trials Land of Trials is the only place ancient drops.
280 – 380 Raklion Asks 280 and 40,000 zen. Only place with socket.
380 – 400 Raklion · Devil Square Master at 380, last stage at 400.
400 Anywhere Level cap. From here on it's reset.

How long it takes

We measured a real session, one character per world, from level 1:

World Reached level in 3h10
x1000 389
x200 295
x500 280

The first reset takes more than three hours even at the highest rate. The first night is the climb, not the reset.

One thing the measurement showed: in the first hundred levels all three worlds climb at nearly the same speed. What limits you there isn't experience per monster — it's how many monsters you can kill per minute. The rate difference only appears once the level table becomes the bottleneck.
