Levelling guide for Adventure Levels and Adventure Fame

You should know by now that you earn adventure XP just by sailing... why should you bother grinding adventure?

Yes, you will do a lot of sailing. But that alone is not enough and it will take years of sailing to get you to max your adventure level.

Why Adventure

Adventure levels are used to:

• Sail bigger / faster ships
• Adopt better jobs
• Acquire new skills
• Increase vigour
• Increase land battle stamina
• Increase sail speed (Unconfirmed)

Adventure fame is used to:

• Unlock Port Permits (Combined with Trade and battle fame)
• Court Ranks (Combined with Trade and battle fame)
• Give access to better quests
• Increases the number of quests from the Mediator.

What gives you Adventure Level XP

• Sail!
• Port discovery.
• Collect / Procure (1 hour a day).
• Quest at the adventure Guild or Mediators.
• Maps. Obtained in archives / scholars in a few cities.
• Oxford quests like "Scholarship Orientation", "Human Activity", "Handling Techniques", "Field Techniques", "Shipwreck History".
• Imperial quests like "The will of the people in Panama" at Santiago.
• Sea Charting. Experience reward increases with each successful sea region completion.
• Land Charting. Experience reward increases with each successful landing zone completion.
• Collection at North America landing spots during Thanksgiving event.

Best way to get adventure levels

If you are just starting out

Take a map and go discover ports / cities. It will also help you get some fame.

Make sure to:

• Be in an ADVENTURE job. You get 2X as much XP and fame.
• Enter cities or you will earn / discover nothing.
• Carry some disguise clothes so you can enter islamic cities.
• Have body language skill and carry some vigour food with you (In case your vigour runs out and you can't talk to the barman).
• Only report your port discoveries to Admiral Dias (Lisbon), Duke Farnese (Seville), Lionel Dockett (London), Duchess of Traetto (Genoa). The reason is because they give better rewards.

Best choice for graduated sailors (Fast level up)

Collection during Thanksgiving day is one the best adventure XP you can get.

You can earn around 50k adventure XP per hour. Ok only one 1 hour a day (And only during 4 days per month).

Final school quests in Sagres also give good XP (Around 8k per quest).

Special Thanksgiving Festival

Thanksgiving is a monthly event for North America.

It starts at 8 pm (server time) and stays on for 4 days. You can collect around 200k XP during this event!

How do I know it's on?

UWO-HQ's Thanksgiving schedule.

Requirements

Collection or procurement skill (High enough to get 2 or more units at a time)
Port Permit for Boston

"Thanksgiving Pre-quest", done once per toon (Not account!).

Procedure

Go to a North american landing spot and find a landmark and start collecting / Procuring.

Some places get really crowded o0'

Note: If you are not getting the extra 100 XP you may not have done the "pre-quest". Check my thanksgiving event guide.

What gives you Adventure Fame

• Port discovery.
• Quest at the adventure Guild or Mediators. Using the reporting discoveries oxford skills greatly increases your rewards.
• Maps. Obtained in archives / scholars in a few cities.
• Oxford quests like "Scholarship Orientation", "Human Activity", "Handling Techniques", "Field Techniques", "Shipwreck History".
• Imperial quests (IQ).
• Sea Charting. Fame reward increases with each successful sea region completion.
• Land Charting. Fame reward increases with each successful landing zone completion.

Best choice for fame grind

If you find all cities in the world and report them, you should have a decent amount of adventure fame.

If you are really committed to adventuring you should not worry about fame as it will naturally come along your adventures.

If you are not committed to adventuring you can always do and repeat "Shipwreck History" Oxford thesis. Long Range Voyaging should be easy for nanbaners.

Maxing your Adventure Level

Thanksgiving Festival will get you great XP but it is limited to a few days per month. That's why it takes months / years to get a bit higher than level 50... so don't count on that.

This event was meant to take you to levels 30 - 40 so you can buy / sail an UWC ship. 

So the benefits I listed on top of this page are usually limited to hardcore gamers.

But there is another way, an easy (and smart) way of obtaining adventure XP that is not as boring and time sucking as school quests.

And that's why I have prepared an exclusive guide to my patrons, the "Maxing your Adventure Levels guide" where I teach the smart way to max your adventure level. Reap all the benefits and glory of being one of the few high level player on the server!

If you are my patron don't miss this post, it is definitely worth it!
