Guide to Leveling Up
Time to get strong. Remember a lot of us have never spent a cent on this game and if you don't want to you can still get good cards, have fun, and be competitive. Whether or not you choose to spend dollars, we ask that you be wise about it, so check our guides to spending before you go nuts and use the following guide to avoid wasting resources.

Level 0 - 25
This will go pretty fast. Do your map levels and quests to get experience. The second main quest that involves completing PvP gives a high amount of exp.

Skills:

Make sure to buy some normal or novice packs so you can get skills for your class. Warriors should look for slash, encourage, and heroic. Rangers should look for true shot, disturbance, and others. Mages: petrify, charm, scorch or fireball. Priests**: smite, blessing armor, blessing life When you have enough skills (3 star is best to aim for), switch to buying mostly 5k race packs. (see our guide to spending silver wisely here.)

Activity points:

Aim for 87 of these every day. You don't need to ever waste gold levying taxes or buying packs with gold just to get activity points. 87 a day is more than enough to get the mid week and weekly chests.

Energy and Reputation Farming:

You'll notice you have 40 energy each day. From 40-20 energy you will get 200% exp and reputation, at 20 it gets cut by half. At this point you might want to use the 200% bonus on bosses to gain experience fast. If you have points to spare and can fill a deck with mostly rare cards of one race, you can try rep farming (see the guide here). Also note, once you have 0 energy you can still do pvp, bosses, and other things, you just won't gain experience, silver, or rep. This goes without saying but never buy elixers or energy refills.

Contribution Points:

You should use a little silver to contribute to the guild also; not only will it fulfill your guild quests but you can upgrade your research.

Gear:

Definitely find a helmet, armor, weapon, and cloak from each boss. It might be tempting to enchant them at the blacksmith, but you will be swapping out this gear for upgraded ones at level 35 so keep the enchanting to a minimum and save your gems to upgrade the King's gear you will get later. You can still combine your gear to get more powerful versions in the meantime. Note for bosses: never spend gold for an extra pick, see Spending Gold Wisely.

Crystals:

You will need a lot of these to upgrade your buildings (the priorities are city hall, alchemy lab, and blacksmith). To get crystals you should always go to the mine at the seaport when you log off. Why? because silver and exp can be earned elsewhere but crystal only comes from taxes and mine expeditions (levying taxes for crystals is a waste of gold). The faster you can get the alchemy lab to level 6 the faster you will be able to combine epic cards and get stronger.

I dont want to be a priest/mage/ranger/warrior!

Finally, if you want to change classes now is the time, don't wait until you are a higher level because you will want to build reputation for your class.
