Cherie's All-Star Leveling Guide

Introduction
''' Are you a high level pirate that just can't seem to get the hang of leveling certain skills? Tired of killing so many enemies/boats and getting so little rep for them? This is the guide for you! '''

''' Though many are unwilling to let you in on this little secret, leveling really is a science; with science comes optimization. I cannot promise this will not be time consuming to an extent, or that it is the best leveling guide in existence. However, I can guarantee you will be astonished with the rep you are able to get by using a few simple tweaks and tricks! '''

''*Note: This guide does not include sword leveling tricks. Feel free to add some!''

Doll
Leveling the doll is something I've seen numerous intelligent pirates struggle with, so no worries!

First off, let's clarify: it is recommended you have a healer for this, otherwise you will likely die. Another solution would be to approach less enemies at a time, but you get the most rep by far if you attune a LOT of enemies and have an attentive healer who will NOT allow you to die. It is also recommended that you use a relatively weak doll that does not have a critical strike or boost poke, swarm, or scorch too much. Be sure to have your "Attune" skill maxed out or close to it, along with "Life Drain".

Secondly, be sure to level in the environment best suited for you.

Levels 30-36 (or so) generally level best in the Bridge Room on Tormenta (the one with 3 spineskulls/flotsams on either side of the bridge, levels 28-35).

Levels 36-39 (or so) fit in well with those in the Cavernous Hallway (4 enemies, kelpbrains/brinescum, levels 33-40)

Levels 40-45 (or so) should gravitate towards the enemies in the Gold Room (4 enemies, seabeards/molusks, levels 38-45).

 Levels 45-50 (or so) are best suited for the Thrall Room (5 enemies in 2 different rooms, thrall captain/urchinfist, levels 43-50).

''Note: The reason the recommended levels for certain areas are NOT the levels matching the enemies is to abolish the major safety issue that comes with challenging enemies too difficult for one's level. These ranges are not exact, but they should work relatively well for their purpose.''

Once you are in your desired location, Attune as many enemies as you can, and follow this progression of skills:

Grave Shackle, Scorch, Poke/Swarm (ONLY until your Scorch is recharged), Scorch, Curse, Life Drain (since this progression may not be easy to remember, I've put it in picture form).

Whatever it takes to remember this cycle, do it! Every enemy will give you maximum rep, and leveling will be a breeze.

One last thing that is important to remember: enemies in your area that are green are NOT WORTH KILLING. Shoot them, grenade them, whatever it takes, but don't waste your doll skills on them! They give about half of the reputation of a yellow or red enemy. A solution to the frustration of having too many "greens"? Upgrade to the next location!
