Weapon Leveling Locations
The following locations are not listed in any specific order and are all viable options. The general idea for any location while leveling weapons is to choose AOE abilities to burn down groups of enemies. For each location listed, you will want to train a group of enemies into certain areas and then AOE them all down. This method is much faster than killing individual enemies.
Generally, a good weapon leveling area will contain quite a few enemies with a decent spawn rate so you can run an infinite loop grouping enemies together, killing them, and moving on to the next group.
PLEASE NOTE: Focusing on leveling weapons is best performed once you reach the level cap. This is more effective due to the diminishing returns you receive from both player XP and weapon XP when killing mobs that are 10+ levels lower than you. Once you hit level 60 this doesn’t apply and you will receive more weapon XP per kill when killing lower-level enemies. It is recommended that as you level your weapons naturally vs specifically grinding out weapon experience.
Misty Borough – Great Cleave
Misty Borough is located in Southern Great Cleave in the Wayward Mounts area. Make sure you run past the Eeeriedune Graveyard before you start pulling your groups of mobs. This area is full of level 47-48 lost enemies, and you have to be careful not to leash the enemies here. There are several pulls that you’ll make each yielding a decent amount of weapon experience.
There are a few buildings that have multiple levels. Be careful not to get caught in a corner or trapped on the stairs. You can jump out of the second-story window into the kill area for the first pull. On the other pulls that have multiple levels, you can also jump out of the windows and continue the pull to the kill areas.
