Okay, here's a 'quick' guide for leveling in Mabinogi.
First off, depending on how high you want to reach, pick a age to rebirth at. I picked 10, but I figured I would keep it for a while. I am level 80 at the age of 13. I have reached 80 yesterday. 17 is normal cause 3 weeks to 20 and another weeks.. yeah. Just pick an age to rebirth at. Either 16, 17, 11, or etc.
Note: If you buy NX often, then rebirth to a young age and then use a rebirth card so you can get to 17 and start again. I made a mistake to rebirth at 10, but I got the title of reaching to 50.
Secondly, pick a 'GOAL'. This goal will be the desired level you want to get to. My goal is to get to 100. Some of you might ha ha ha, hacker, no life. Yeah, I am a no life. Make this goal something you haven't got to. 60 or 70 is a decent goal.
Third, start grinding. Go to Tara channel 4 and join any shadow mission you can. Even do a their method int to get some of your experience faster. Use a 2x Potion 2 Hours for even faster.
Note: If you do not want to shadow mission grind, you can go to the fish mark at Iria, which is also pretty fast.
That's around it.
It takes lots of perseverance, but it is possible to make it to 100 in 5 / 6 weeks. Some pro people can make it to 100 in 3 weeks.
Well, put on some music and loop it over and over again. Or use your ipod and jam away.
Here are some grind-friendly shadow missions.
Their Method
Other Alchemists
Shadow Cast City
Theater Missions
Shadow Warrior
and lots more. If you have any shadow missions to add / or correct me on, make a post.
Note: I have school, so I will be back later to adjust this.

It's possable to get to lvl100 in a week... but you HAVE to be glued to the computer... and you must be able to grind and be Invited to spam HM/Elite missions
2x exp potions and shadow crystals will help alot...

[FONT="Century Gothic"]On a different topic- I have a small handful of shadow crystals. How do you use them? Do you just consume them anytime while in a shadow mission? Or do you have to use them right at the end?[/FONT]

I think this is more for people who intend to play long term but just don't know what to do.
People don't exactly spend NX first time they play
Also, wouldn't starting a character at age 17 be better because of the AP you get when making a character? You could rebirth back to age 10 the next day too.
@GigaTomboy Right Click (or hold left ctrl) and click. they activate on the next SM you complete but it's not recommended to use them until boss room because you may crash or something and end up wasting the crystal for an exclusive run (Golden Apple, Elite SMs, etc). I'm pretty sure you can use them whenever since they activate on SM completion if you have the buff on

*These are just my opinions im not saying hes right or wrong*
You should probably only rebirth to 17. 10 is a bad idea (after youve learned the game and are focused on gaining levels and training skills) because its simply too long to wait if you are free rebirthing. I think its much more efficient to rebirth to 17 each week and you should have enough time to get the levels you need. If you feel too rushed, you can try 16 untill you get the hang of grinding in mabinogi.
Note: If you buy NX often, then rebirth to a young age and then use a rebirth card so you can get to 17 and start again.
You should only rebirth to 10 if you are planning on buying character cards regularly. If you buy a card and rebirth to 10, and the next week, you try to rebirth to 17 so you can start using free rebirths again, as far as i know, you wont be able to rebirth to an age higher than your current age. If you are unhappy with having your character be tall, and want it to be short, then buy a 10 dollar card and stock up on age potions. At the same price of a single character card, you can have about 16 weeks with the appearance of a 10 year old. Thats longer than a whole age cycle from 10 to 20!
Those are just my 2 cents about rebirthing and leveling :/

Once you consume a shadow crystal, the next shadow mission you complete will receive the bonus. You can use it before you finish it, or before you enter it.
I'm not sure if these work for Generation missions, though.

Rebirthing at 10 is a bad idea
think about it this way
unless you buy weekly RBs
you end up capping your level before you're even close to a free rebirth again.
The best way is to rebirth at 17 and level to 50-60ish and then rbing again and repeating
getting to level 100 in one rebirth is pointless unless you can do it withing a 2- 3week range because
It takes lots of perseverance, but it is possible to make it to 100 in 5 / 6 weeks. Some pro people can make it to 100 in 3 weeks.
if you make it to 60 every 3 weeks (some people can make it to 70-80ish)
you get 120-160ish total levels in 2 rebirths
while the time it takes you to get to 100 is not only less levels and AP, but also a lot more effort then it would if you rebirth at age 17 and rebirth at a reasonable level.
I wouldn't really consider this a guide.

I know. For those future royal alchemists, it would be wiser.
This is for people who already have the hang of the game. I know, rebirthing at 17 is good for the AP and all.
This would technically be my guide, cause I use it myself. 99 AP and the journal points. This can also help you get up to 25 exploration, cause I haven't got to 20 myself yet.

You could get to 25 explore in a couple of hours of artifacts. Even less if you're able to raft efficiently or if you mass buy fossils.
Explore 20 only takes like 2-3 Hrs with artifacts iirc

Fomor attack is much easier than other alchemist and way more grind friendly since except the shadow wizards, its all the same mobs of scc

'Mabinogi is too hard to level in...' NEVER FEAR.
Although the title says never fear, the guide tell you to grind...
The people who think it is too hard to level in probable have a fear for grinding...

Wasbewwi wrote on 2011-05-11 14:11
The guide itself explains how to ignore the fact it's hard to level.
Mabinogi itself is not a grinding game.
Maplestory is, and Mabinogi is not like that, but.
I, personally grind because I want to achieve level 100.
Mabinogi is about the fun and random things you can do. Rafting, etc.
I'm not saying it doesn't say to grind, i'm just saying it's grind-friendly. I rebirthed to 10 so I have more time to do homework etc.

Cough, I grinded to 85 in 4 hours..double exp pot, double rainbow all the way.
But now it takes me 3 weeks to reach lvl 80. Too much work and rl....All I do is daily double and trying to get 60 points each week to maintain RA status. I barely think about leveling, it just kinda comes with hard mode daily doubles.

Ya it's pretty easy to level when you have another goal in mind.
I got to level 51 just from spamming math adv to try and get that hellhound skull for r7 first aid which I have yet to find and am going to put my hunt on hold so that I can rank Fishing to r5 and get going on my Lance Skills that I got distracted from when I was ranking some of my life skills.
Last rebirth I hit level 74 just from spamming other alchemists in continuously to get homestead stones. Surprised me how fast it went. Got there in a matter of 5-6 days.
Leveling always go faster in my experience when you have a different goal in mind besides leveling.
