PLEASE READ if you intend to power-level using this method: As of the release of the Chapter 4 update (4/2/24) of the Age of War, all harvesting-power-leveling methods have been nerfed on official PvP servers because harvest rates have been brought down from x4 to x2. I ran some test and you should still be able to powerlevel using this method, it just won't be as fast. In your first run of this route, you should be able to get up to level 39. That's still a decent amount of levels to get just from simply farming mushrooms. Also, if your sickle breaks halfway through the route, pick up some of the steel bars that you find in the chests at Shaleback Hollow. Once you're level 30 you can learn the steel sickle so you can repair it. Aside from steel bars, you'll also need some shaped wood to repair it, which you can easily get from crafting a carpenter's bench. If you don't think this powerleveling route is worth it, I do have this other video that shows you another method: kzread.info/dash/bejne/oX6ns9OfgKecmag.html If you need some more help or information, please feel free to comment~

Thank you, glad you enjoyed! :) I used to love farming black ice for power leveling, but after trying this new method, this became my go-to method for leveling. With the steel sickle you get at Shaleback Hollow, it only takes about 2 runs to reach max level. Much faster than I did in the video. Super easy and don’t have to deal with getting ganked by more established players.

Question: In case you get a steel pickle at the cave as well: Is it worth to farm the brimstone underwater in the Dschungel (with mask) ? Or just walk the Route again? What is more efficient?

@Zelosykes

3 ай бұрын

The underwater brimstone in the jungle can no longer be farmed using a pick as of Chapter 4. Sadly you can only pick it up by hand now. Not worth the time.

So do you gain more xp when you gather more of the resource like is it better to use better tools because they will give more resources instead of picking them up?

@Zelosykes

3 ай бұрын

Yes, the more you pick up, the more experience you get. So a Star Metal sickle will level you up faster than an iron sickle. Also, as I mentioned, get the Efficient Harvest perk at leve 10. This perk gives you twice as many resources on the final hit, so more xp.

Before I joined private my concern was abusing admins and that there are wipes every 2months or so. But I found a server where admins are legit so far, everything is pvp focused. Best thing is that you don't have to worry about hackers and glitchers and for me that makes it up. Sure there are rules and I guess privates don't have that story telling as you would have when starting on official.

The state of Conan is at its worst it’s been, a lot more hackers with new hack, will come and full loot locked vaults and chest without having to do anything but type in that certain chests code and input into cheat and it will pull all the loot from your locked chests and into their chest

Best way (the most yield) to farm is always with the sickle. The worst way is by hand (least yield). A pick was just an in between yield, not as much as a sickle, but more than by hand. A pick is also easier to obtain than a sickle in early game. As of 4/2/24, the only way to farm mushrooms will be by hand or sickle.
