I'm doing way better now! Already leveled up twice :) now i need to find a high level sykesti to add to my party.

If you use a lvl 50 or higher experience orb on sea, you should get a surge in levels!

Also, you should fill your pet slots. 2 pets give you double xp, and 3 pets triple! (They get the same XP *each*, not shared).

I recommend an earth or shadow middle pet, your fire pet in slot 2, and a light pet in slot 3. But other combinations also work!

Also, you can find cheap high level Sylestis using advanced search (on the left side).

Thanks! When i breed a decent sylesti i will probably attune it to shadow. Already have a decent fire so there's that ^-^
