From 85 to 90

Hunting zones for farming based on levels


Hello dear players, in this guide we are going to look at how to build a soulhound.

First off in L2 Essence is very important your level, there are zones like Aztacan, Forgotten Garden, Tower of Insolence, Hellbound, Dream Land, Pagan, Kelbim, Antharas and Frozen Palace that you won't be able to go just because of your level and most of the times because of your gear. 

First, let me start with this, every class is different and for playing soulhound is for free to play class that needs mid tear upgrades so as not to be dependent on orfen earring +2 for mana issues. This is very important as there are other clases that do need orfen +2 to play and are pay to win clases that are excellent at farming and pvp.

From level 76 to 85

Considering new players, it's going to be hard to go to some arenas like Aztacan, Forgotten Garden and Tower of Insolence as these three would be essential for you. 

Items you should try to get in the very beginning as your target: 

Weapons

You will get a free weapon_greed_stinger_i00.pngГравированная Рапира - A grade weapon you can try +4 for free with scrolls if you can get for a good start.

Sigil

You should try to get a weapon_karyen_i00.pngСимвол Величия - A grade, they are pretty cheap for a starter item and is good if you can make +4.

Essential Items

high_agathion_bracelet_i00.pngetc_level_panel_lv3.pngБраслет для Агатионов Ур. 3

etc_bm_brooch_lavianrose_i02.pngetc_level_panel_lv3.pngБрошь Ур. 3

dimension_bracelet_i02.pngetc_level_panel_lv3.pngБраслет для Талисманов Ур. 3

The talisman bracelet can hold up to 4 talismans on lv. 3:

tallisman_rapid.pngТалисман Скорости Запечатано +4 (min).

sayhas_talisman_new.pngТалисман Властителя Запечатано +4 (min).

bm_aden_talisman.pngТалисман Адена Запечатано +4 (recommended +7 has bonus exp).

bm_eva_talisman.pngТалисман Евы Запечатано +4 (min).

The brooch lv. 3 can hold 4 jewels:

etc_bm_jewel_onyx_i00.pngetc_level_panel_lv1.pngОникс Ур. 1 Недоступно - lv. 3 (min).

etc_bm_jewel_coral_i00.pngetc_level_panel_lv1.pngКоралл Ур. 1 Недоступно - lv. 3 (min).

etc_bm_jewel_bloodstone_i00.pngetc_level_panel_lv1.pngЦиркон Ур. 1 Недоступно - lv. 3 (min).

etc_bm_jewel_opal_i00.pngetc_level_panel_lv1.pngОпал Ур. 1 Запечатано - I recommend trying to get another one, opal is for PvP - etc_bm_jewel_beryl_i00.pngetc_level_panel_lv1.pngБерилл Ур. 1 Недоступно or etc_bm_jewel_garnet_i00.pngetc_level_panel_lv1.pngШпинель Ур. 1 Недоступно or etc_bm_jewel_ruby_i00.pngred_panel_01.pngРубин Ур. 1 Недоступно one of these 3 if you can get your hands on.

The agathion bracelet lv. 3 can hold also 4 agathions:

agathion_fire_1.pngАгатион Игнис Запечатано  - For start make +3 because its safe .

pleasure_agathion_i00.pngАгатион Радости Запечатано - For start make +3 because its safe .

agathion_earth_1.pngАгатион Петрам Запечатано - For start make +3 because its safe .

agathion_wind_1.pngАгатион Прочелла Запечатано - For start make +3 because its safe.

Special items

You will play for some time with accessory_barka_karm_i00.pngВенец Героя Запечатано +0 and r2_belt_i01.pngПояс Дракона Запечатано +0. These two are quite hard to increase the enchants as you don't get that many and only donation can help. But there are zones where you can get them like Dream Land. 

bm_pendant_pve_white.pngetc_material_lv1.pngПодвеска Эйнхасад Ур. 1 Запечатано: this is the one you will get in the beginning. It can only increase in level if you compound it with the same one, it is very hard to make 2-3-4-5.

bm_2018_sayha_cloak_back_i01.pngpanel_sa.pngПлащ Защиты Запечатано: This is one of the items that is easy to farm if you have good level and items inside the Tower of Insolence quest. I recommend trying to get +5 at the beginning but try as high as possible but don't break it. It's essential.

For jewels

Very important to get accessory_necklace_of_valakas_i00.pngОжерелье Валакаса Запечатано - this item is normally very cheap to buy and I highly recommend getting it in the beginning even if you can't enchant it.

ring_of_oman.pngpannel_cursed.pngКольцо Дерзости Запечатано and accessary_catseye_earing_i00.pngpannel_cursed.pngСерьга Долины Драконов Запечатано try as safe as possible to keep at least some +1 +2 in the start as they do break easy but are good for m def.

ring_of_oman.pngpannel_cursed.pngКольцо Дерзости Запечатано and accessary_catseye_earing_i00.pngpannel_cursed.pngСерьга Долины Драконов Запечатано try as safe as possible to keep at least some +1 +2 in the start as they do break easy but are good for m def.

For Armor

armor_t81_g_i00.pngpannel_cursed.pngРукавицы Кошмаров - Легкие Доспехи Запечатано - Don't enchant these its not necessary

armor_t81_b_i00.pngpannel_cursed.pngСапоги Кошмаров - Легкие Доспехи Запечатано - Don't enchant these its not necessary

armor_t81_ul_i00.pngКожаный Доспех Кошмаров - Dont enchant you need light armor for Soulhound due to Soulhound skill0465.pngВладение Легкой Броней.

armor_leather_helmet_i00.pngpannel_cursed.pngДиадема Величия - Магические Доспехи Запечатано - You can try to enchant to +4/+5 but it doesn't matter only for p def stat

So the strategy is that in the beginning you need a vampiric effect and these boots will be very helpful in the beginning. Later you will switch to Majestic boots and gauntlets.

accessory_black_half_face_i00.pngМаска Пробивания Запечатано - item can be obtained from monthly reward missions, from mission points and reaching lv 20 at some months only. Otherwise you can only get this item from paying in the store.

Another way to boost mp regeneration is with increasing MEN but I don't recommend it. Other people recommend having WIT to reduce cooldowns but that just makes you hit faster in early game and stay without mp. It can work but for me I just go full INT because for me damage is better especially if you can reach 70 INT at least then put all on WIT since it will give you more magic skill critical too.

From 85 to 90

Things will get a lot easier here as monsters will hit you a lot less than usual because the level of the monsters will start to get lower compared to yours. This is very important if you are lower level from a monster you do less damage and the monster hits a lot more damage to you, this is the other way if you are higher level.

Here you will really start playing the game, every zone is much more accessible than before and you should try to level up all items as high as you can.

At this point you can start trying to get the following items little by little:

I recommend just buying aden_rune_i04.pngetc_level_panel_lv16.pngКристалл Души Адена Ур. 16 - Оружие two pics for your weapon as its maximum you can put.

aden_rune_high_i03.pngetc_level_panel_lv11.pngКристалл Души Хардина Ур. 11 - very important try to level it up to 13 or 14 gives good mp recovery.

For Aden aden_rune_am_i02.pngetc_level_panel_lv8.pngКристалл Души Адена Ур. 8 - Доспехи - aden_rune_am_i03.pngetc_level_panel_lv11.pngКристалл Души Адена Ур. 11 - Доспехи (only if you think you need the extra defense) normally it's ok, this class does not need that much defense everything around you should be dying fast so defense is not a high priority.

For Aden aden_rune_am_i02.pngetc_level_panel_lv8.pngКристалл Души Адена Ур. 8 - Доспехи - aden_rune_am_i03.pngetc_level_panel_lv11.pngКристалл Души Адена Ур. 11 - Доспехи (only if you think you need the extra defense) normally it's ok, this class does not need that much defense everything around you should be dying fast so defense is not a high priority.

Talismans in late game

You should be using {Eva - Speed- Venir-Baium-Authority-Aden(this last one can be swapped by hellbound if you want, i prefer aden because give bonus exp)}

Eva talisman - try to make 2 eva talismans +6 and make it a card_event_blue_box_01.pngenchant_panel_06.pngУпаковка: Благословенный Талисман Евы +6 Запечатано through the Special Craft menu. Very important to get to where you don't need accessory_earring_of_orfen_i03.pngСерьга Орфен +2.

Try to get a baium_talisman_new.pngpannel_cursed.pngТалисман Баюма Запечатано +3 (min) very expensive talisman.

benir_talisman_i00.pngetc_level_panel_lv1.pngТалисман Бенира Ур. 1 Запечатано -Buy it cheap from the Special Craft menu- you need this one as high as possible but if you are smart benir_talisman_i01.pngetc_level_panel_lv28.pngТалисман Бенира Ур. 28 Запечатано is enough, benir_talisman_i01.pngetc_level_panel_lv30.pngТалисман Бенира Ур. 30 Запечатано have a bit more stat but nothing out of this world.Very expensive to lv up though compounding. To compound you need venir fragments that are only bought through the game via 100 L box events or buying from players.

Agathions in late game

agathion_water_1.pngenchant_panel_07.pngУпаковка: Агатион Небула +7 Запечатано, agathion_fire_1.pngenchant_panel_07.pngУпаковка: Агатион Игнис +7 Запечатано, agathion_earth_1.pngenchant_panel_07.pngУпаковка: Агатион Петрам +7 Запечатано, agathion_valakas_i00.pngenchant_panel_07.pngУпаковка: Агатион Яйцо Дракона +7 Запечатано - If you can make this one even +5 it's good, but it's very expensive to make +7.

pleasure_agathion_i00.pngenchant_panel_07.pngУпаковка: Агатион Радости +7 Запечатано or agathion_wind_1.pngenchant_panel_07.pngУпаковка: Агатион Прочелла +7 Запечатано (if you have mp issues better Procella for me I use Joy for exp).

Jewels in late game

etc_bm_jewel_onyx_i00.pngetc_level_panel_lv5.pngОникс Ур. 5 Недоступно - best jew for damage, as bonus that it gives on character is almost double - that is because of way it scales.

etc_bm_jewel_moonstone_i00.pngetc_level_panel_lv5.pngЛунный Камень Ур. 5 Недоступно - I use moonstone for exp and for sayha consumption reduction.

etc_bm_jewel_beryl_i00.pngetc_level_panel_lv5.pngБерилл Ур. 5 Недоступно - On Soulhound you can even have lv 3 the attack that it gives is not that much but its generally one of best jews for attack and defense.

etc_bm_jewel_garnet_i00.pngetc_level_panel_lv5.pngШпинель Ур. 5 Недоступно - Very good jew make as high as possible.

etc_bm_jewel_bloodstone_i00.pngetc_level_panel_lv5.pngЦиркон Ур. 5 Недоступно - Also very good jew for mages - if you can get it lv 6-7 on events is good as it gives M. Skill Critical Damage.

etc_bm_jewel_ruby_i00.pngred_panel_05.pngРубин Ур. 5 Недоступно - This is new jew that on lv 5 gives PVE damage bonus and extra targets to hit - DOES NOT PROC FOR PVP so you won't flag other people.

For jewels I recommend getting

accessory_earring_of_tantaar_i02.pngСерьга Ацтакана +1 -This one can be obtained by compounding a hunter earring +10 with incredible stone and if you succeed you get an Aztacan Earring tradable. - Excellent item for PVE!

accessory_necklace_of_frintessa_i04.pngОжерелье Фринтезы +2 - essential to get +2 as its better than Valakas Necklace.

accessory_ring_of_baium_i03.pngКольцо Баюма +2 - damage item , really good if you can get it or even +3 highest always better.

accessary_dynasty_ring_i03.pngКольцо Белефа +3 - very good on mage clases for the soulshot damage and skill cooldown.

accessory_earring_of_zaken_i03.pngСерьга Закена +2  - item is good for life steal and sustainability.

For armors

armor_t101_u_i00.pngКожаный Доспех Молнии and armor_t102_l_i00.pngКожаные Брюки Молнии all +5 is best and for gloves and boots try with armor_t85_g_i00.pngРукавицы Величия - Магические Доспехи and armor_t85_b_i00.pngСапоги Величия - Магические Доспехи and make them +5.

accessory_black_half_face_i00.pngМаска Пробивания Запечатано try to make +4 at the very minimum. It really helps a lot, but of course try as much as possible, this is directly damage increase.

r2_belt_i01.pngПояс Дракона Запечатано and accessory_barka_karm_i00.pngВенец Героя Запечатано try as much as possible but optimal enchants are +5/+6 if you can make them blessed it will be awesome.

bm_2018_sayha_cloak_back_i01.pngpanel_sa.pngПлащ Защиты Запечатано this item at this point you should have +7/+8 if you do Tower of Insolence daily quest every day.

bm_pendant_pve_white.pngetc_material_lv3.pngПодвеска Эйнхасад Ур. 3 Запечатано: Every month you should create new 6 in-game characters(in the same account) and get the 1 for free and try to compound and so with all items that you get for free to maximize this pendant as much as possible. Optimal level is 3.

Augmentations

This is so important. Once you make a good item try to put augment on items. For example On Circlet of hero and piercing mask and also weapon you can get very good augmentations for damage - skill critical or skill power. Every jewel and every armor can have 1 augmentation.

Collections

For Soulhound really do defense as they are quite easy to make, at least all that you can, but really no need to get too insistent with these as you should focus for skill cooldown and skill power increase and maybe if you can on defense and some P/M attack collections that can add little by little.

Skills to learn with Soulhound Class

Try to get the skills in this order:

etc_magic_book_black_i00.pngskillgrade_panel_b_64.pngКнига Заклинаний - Грозовая Доблесть Недоступно

giant_book_i02.pngskillgrade_panel_c_64.pngКнига Заклинаний - Владение Сиянием Ур. 2 Недоступно  (This one first if you have mp issues if not then go shadow master Lv 2)

giant_book_i00.pngskillgrade_panel_c_64.pngКнига Заклинаний - Владение Сумраком Ур. 2 Недоступно

etc_magic_book_red_i00.pngskillgrade_panel_b_64.pngКнига Заклинаний - Мастер Схватки Недоступно  (Only get this if you don't have anything else to and you have time limited book - or just put somewhere in collection your choice - but this skill is quite good for defense)

All other skills are optional - I don't recommend getting 4* book on soulhound, yes it gives mass damage every X seconds based on skill cooldown but it consumes spirit ores and if you were to get a 4* book its better to play other classes.

Hunting zones for farming based on levels

First form lv 1 just follow missions and where to go. These missions will start to get fast really hard but don't think about it too much its only important that you make it to lv 76 with their help and onwards they dont matter that much.

War Tons Plains on lv 71 to 78 and from lv 78 onwards Silent Valley. Based on your equipment you can skip War Tons Plains.

From level 80 to 85- Farmable arenas Tower of Insolence - Forgotten Garden - for World Zones and in normal world - Lizardmans/Dragon valley (Skeletons area).

From lv 85 + You should be able to do Hot springs area farm for daily quests that is something i recommend- in the beginning even with your healer as support this is doable and I recommend it. I recommend farming in Dragon Valley east is best.

On lv 90+ you will be able to go almost all zones, except some high level places - Frost Lord Castle or high Arena farms of Kelbim and Pagan. These places are mostly for whales to farm.

Here you will be able to farm in Hot springs / Seul Mahum / Giants Cave - Farm always at the spot where you one shot or 2-3 hit monsters.
