How to level up alts fast in No Rest for the Wicked

[@robiplays]

NOTE: When starting at the beach, Run further left to the broken tower (it's safer and quicker to use this whisper), because there is a Whisper there that you can use to teleport to town. My apologies, I am always forgetting that tower to the left at the beach. Thank you @chrisnb71, for the reminder in the comments.

[@eight216]

Step 1) Run to your house from the beach step 2) Have a bunch of exp gain gear and exp potions already saved up step 3) Run crucible after you get lvl 11 from potions

[@robiplays]

Yup.

[@chrisnb71]

If you would have run to the left a few more steps to the tower on the beach you can just click the portal and go right to town.

[@robiplays]

I always forget about the Whisper in that tower to the left, lol.

It’s your channel, and we are on your time also, Respectively. Its a two way street brudda. Good vid!

[@robiplays]

Thanks, I appreciate that.

[@moviemoments9369]

Thanks Robi, I don’t know why they think you’re cheating when it’s easy to level up in this game. The enemies scale to your level and yes some hit way harder but they scale to where you can kill them no problem with the correct gear.

[@robiplays]

Thank you so much. I was puzzled when I read the comments accusing me of cheating/hacking, etc. Like you said, it is easy to level up in the game.

[@mari-anne]

just fyi, the enemies do NOT scale to your level, they scale according to story progression. after you kill the riven twins boss, the worlds is repopulated by level 21+ enemies and all the loot that drops is level 21. so it doesnt matter if you kill that boss at level 20 or at level 10, the world will be at lvl 21 "difficulty".

[@robiplays]

@@mari-anne This is true, enemies scale based on story progression.

[@revulpes6071]

heyy man! Best way I've found to get to sacrament with a new character is the sewers actually; it's much faster and no dodging mobs needed at all Great video still, keep it up ^^

much thanks... I miss up with my build for my main character, and I need to do a new one, thanks for your vid. I can start fresh OP

[@robiplays]

Glad I could help

[@manfredhoudek2385]

I found out if you get into city on first character. Start alt in new realm and the weapon armor quality drop rate is significantly better quality. My first alt before reaching first level up I picked up a high-quality dagger, shortly after I picked up a Purple 2H weapon. My armor drops are higher. And yes, this is definitely in another realm.

[@robiplays]

Nice. I wasn't aware of that. Thanks for sharing.

[@sonoftristram]

Getting to the city actually has no impact to new worlds. It's either just the RNG gods on your side or because a hot fix happened that changed drops.

[@pawelkapica5363]

I struggled real bad with my level 17 character in crucible, how do you survive with a level 11?

[@robiplays]

I'm used to fighting in the crucible since I play in the crucible a lot. I have learned all the enemy positions, types, attack patterns, e.t.c. No worries my guy. The more you play it, the better you will get at it. You got this.

[@darkobiwan]

Excellent topic, and good job on showing how it works. Tips though, if you want the videos to be shorter… use a script and edit. You could’ve cut out the run back to the house for food. And you ramble a bit too much.

[@robiplays]

Thanks for the tips! I appreciate it.

[@darkobiwan]

@@robiplays No prob. Sorry if that came off as harsh. I really did appreciate the video.

[@robiplays]

@@darkobiwan No worries, I didn't perceive it as harsh. I appreciate feedback on improving my videos. Thanks once again.

[@Skewguard]

Do you keep your chets your house your loot from the previous run or its a new game ?

[@robiplays]

The chests in the house is from the 'main realm' that my main character completed. I play that realm with new characters so that they have access to those chests.

sorry, can you explain, why you have gear up with 2 swords?

[@susanooalarichard]

lulz, you were just doing what I was doing at first. That's not cheating. It's a part of the game. Don't know that much about you and your channel yet, however, I'd keep in mind the people running their fingers obviously don't understand the game yet. Hope they're not getting to you. As far as Crucible goes for other people, figure out your build if you're having trouble with it. Focus on getting gear to gain health, stamina and focus with your attacks, as well as getting gear that refills them automatically over time. Take your time in the Crucible. At least the first few times. Maybe use a ranged build and pick off one enemy at a time. Can't always be done, and this game can kind of punish you if you're rushing into battle not paying attention to the number of enemies in the area. Anyway, if anyone is thinking of cheating, I'd keep in mind that when the arena is added and the rest of multiplayer is implemented, you're basically going to be paired with other cheaters. Maybe you won't get caught, but you're not going to stand a chance against players that actually took the time to learn the game. (Not at all saying what people ought to do in their solo game. More, just don't ruin other people's fun by cheating.)

[@robiplays]

Thank you for the kind words. Trying not to let a few comments get to me. I'm kinda new to the whole creator thingy, lol. Your comment about people pacing themselves in the Crucible is spot on.

[@HoussamSakini]

Or just keep backuping your autosaves to duplicate experience potions . Sell them for gold or use them to instaly get to 30 lvl

[@robiplays]

Wow, nice. Thats even quicker.

[@IamTheSnowman4]

Thanks, you just gave me an idea for something different that can also be done.

[@feliciozo]

@@IamTheSnowman4 ok now I won't be able to go on with my day. What is it? LOL

[@IamTheSnowman4]

@@feliciozo First idea is to use only the best fodder for gear enchanting. I found it to be annoying to load up an inventory of items that had their attack value at its most optimum. Now I will load up a couple chests with max damage rolls on weapons and use them to enchant for the weapon I want. In comparison to buying those weapons I noticed I wound end up with 5~ ideal weapons for enchanting when I would buy 35 of them. Sifting through the 35 was slow. Duping also means that I can amass quantities of items that can only drop and use them for enchanting. So if I really want my character to look a certain way (fashion souls) then I can enchant specific armor pieces that I have duped. Thirdly is gem rolls. I don't think you can reroll gems, however if I dupe the gem and the gear that I want to put the gem in prior to putting them together then I can keep trying for perfect rolls. I don't have any white gear in my setup so I have no need to max my gem rolls step by step. But if I should ever have a need for it then I could. The most basic idea is that I can dupe my already pretty good rolled rings that don't actually do anything because the game needs to fix rings. For accumulation of gold I think Houssam has the right idea. I think that with each item enchanting trip I should have the consumables tab loaded up with 35 full stacks of the 800xp potion that sells for 150. The resources menu should also be filled to the max with an item that sells for the highest value I can find. I have only just logged into this hotfix but I can see an item that sells for 202 in the resources menu. I bet there are better items to sell wouldn't surprise me if 300~ is the value I will find. 35x25 is 875. So (150+300~)x875 = 393750 This translates to 39 gold 37 silver 50 copper during each trip where I sell all the duped resources to the merchant whilst I am trying to enchant my duped gear. Interesting to see how much it blows past the gold I have already accumulated. Currently I've got 22 gold and the math says I will get 39 gold from just 1 trip. Gold for gold's sake is pointless I am just doing this as a bonus while I get the gear I want. Maybe someday a stockpile of gold will be useful but that day is not today.

[@samxie9048]

Is there a way to farm fire throw? How can you get it or do you just have to wait for a weapon that has it to drop?

[@robiplays]

I have only found them on weapons that roll/come with the runes, then I extract the runes from those weapons (so far I have only found Fire and Plague throw). I haven't seen any of the 'throw' runes drop alone in crucible. I'm still trying to get a weapon with cold/frost throw, so I can extract the rune.

[@manfredhoudek2385]

Buy a boat load of Smoke bombs they do 30 damage per hit and can throw from afar as long as you target them. I killed First boss with six smoke bombs, no weapons on me and food eaten, Fast dodge roll without weapons on you doesn't sap stamina, infinite supply. Wait till boss pauses or falls down from his attack and smoke bomb him. Fast dodge roll (Parry button + Fast move), Time the rolls when he slam attacks you. Takes 6, have a couple of spares in case he moves away when you throw across the screen.

[@jorgenlindstrom5012]

I cant enter my own home on the same realm as my main char with my alt. Did they change this?

[@robiplays]

It still works as of the last time I played the game which was about 2 days ago. There hasn't been a new hotfix released either since Hotfix 6 on April 26.

[@jorgenlindstrom5012]

@@robiplays Wierd. So if you join the realm of you main that has cleared eveything. You can enter the home staight away from reaching the city? I tried to buy all homes, but none of em works

[@robiplays]

@@jorgenlindstrom5012 Yes, When I play on the realm my main character plays on (note: you don't even need to have completed the story in that realm, your main character simply needs to have unlocked the ability to purchase homes and must have purchased a home), with a new character I have made, he/she is able to enter the home my main character has purchased. This is because Realm progression is saved separately from player progression.

there is safer route. Just go to the right on the beach and climb ladder to the broken tower near the bridge. then continue to the right.

Plz tell me how to shoot with my bow … im confused. My char will always use bow with melee atttacks O_o

[@robiplays]

I play mostly using an Xbox controller, so I will explain using that. Your bow has rune abilities. With your bow being in your offhand, Hold down the LB button, and it will show the rune abilities that your current bow has. To fire off the rune ability, while holding down LB, press either X, Y, B or A (this corresponds to the button the rune ability is mapped to). Hope this helps.

@@sasch3026 No worries. For Keyboard use, Hold down the 'CTRL' Key and the press keys between 1-4(for the appropriate rune).

[@Pablo-uj6zn]

How get this fire throw?)

[@robiplays]

'Throw' runes drop from very specific weapons (I think there are are 5 types of throw runes, I have only found 4 of them so far from specific weapons which I extracted the runes from), or I assume you can also get them from the chests after defeating Echo Knight in the crucible since the gold chest can drop runes. For example, the Ice Throw rune can be extracted from the 'Risen Blade' weapon.

[@RydenEden]

I don't know why anyone considers you cheating.. it's not even using your imagination. it's just understanding the game mechanics. I don't like doing alts so I probably won't do this.. like that's why I don't play Lost ark cuz in order to get everything done and all the rewards you have to do a lot of alt character stuff. but this is like really basic shit but really smart. use your main to level up. get extra ichor upgrade level 1 weapons and level 1 armors.. farm experience potions.. then create a new character in the same world. grab all that gear. use the experience potions to get to at least level 11 and then go level no, not far enough in the game. I don't know if you could craft experience potions but hell if you could literally use your main to craft a crapload of experience. potions and just use that to get your alts level 30. just experience posting away so late. I don't understand. it isn't cheating.. it's just taking advantage of game mechanics and it's very smart. not as smart as it's like some crazy genius way that people couldn't think of, but smart as in. if you just apply a little bit of brain power, you could easily do it. applause to you sir. good video. I personally just don't like alts. I just wanted to see what the power leveling was all about

[@robiplays]

Thank you so much for the kind words. You are absolutely correct. Nothing in this game is complex nor new, because just about everything in it is derivative of other games. Just a little thinking outside the box, or applying game mechanics learned from other games is all that is needed. Glad you are playing the game, hope you enjoy it as much as I did. I will be making more videos on the game once new content drops for it.

[@joppemin]

nice video, good to start off a new build, but also who cares if you would be cheating stats, you're a build channel, making a new character every time would take so much time just to show/theorize a new build. 😅

[@robiplays]

Thanks. I am really hoping they add a respect method soon, because creating a new build takes hours to do, because I have to level up a new character for it.

@@robiplays yeah found it yesterday after using the potion seller save and reload method Put vials in a chest, create a save by leaving the game, loading in with Continue then leaving the game again to guarantee a save at that exact moment, load back in, grab the loot (can be any item you want so birch planks, gems, boar tusks, etc) then leave to the main menu and select the save you created All items will remain in your inventory and be in the chest so you can extract them from the chest, leave to main menu, load back into your save point and extract from the chest again
