# Leveling System

Royal leveling alternates between combat zones and quest-driven progression. Follow the intended stage instead of farming one map for the entire Royal journey.

## How Progression Works

* **Royal Level 1–6:** Earn Royal EXP in Wasteland.
* **Royal Level 6–10:** Progress mainly through Cardia quests. Regular monster grinding alone is not the intended route.
* **Royal Level 10–15:** Earn Royal EXP in Amethyst Forest and complete the available daily content.
* **Royal Level 15–20:** Continue through Dread Cove and the associated Royal activities.

## Royal EXP Support

Royal EXP can be improved with Premium benefits, Party UP, Royal Amplification items and Cardia consumables such as Cardia Feathers, Berries of Experience and Cardia Flowers. Some of these are obtained from Cardia NPCs or the Vote/Premium shops.\

Check the effect and remaining duration of every EXP item before starting a long leveling session. Event bonuses can temporarily change the fastest route.
