Update after chapter 2: Heirlooms have been introduced in every slot in chapter2, so u can use placeholder pieces until you can buy a heirloom for that slot. A full Spell Power set is still the most flexiable set, specially if you can card in Mental Quickness among your cards. Then its fine to lvl melee stuff with, since everything scales off SP. But if you always lvl hunter stuff, you should grab the hunter heirloom set ofcourse. etc etc Comment for questions!
Something I found out about farming abilities in openworld, especially the dungeon ones: Queue for manastorm, if it's gnomeregan, literally just run out of the entrance portal and you'll realize you are at the dungeon entrance and not any major city! Then set the dungeon to normal (maybe reset ror safety) and there you go. Any dungeon can now be farmed for abilities easily using manastorm as a "free teleport"
I'm returning back to Ascension after around 10 months or so of a break, man there is so much to catch up on. Thank you for the video, deffinetly will continue watching! Thanks again!
thank you for this build. it's my first time playing and i'm only using your starting 4 skills, but it's fun sofar. Being my first play through i also picked resolute mode so i could enjoy the play through before tackling the speed leveling
This is probably the best guide I have seen so far that isn't just some text with pointless links. Amazing job! Very thorough! Some of the combos you showed I didn't even know of like flame burst and arcane explosion. Thanks man.
Both can work, since you get weapon dmg from SP Im using a STR set when im lvling with Sinister strike, but with the new heirlooms im gonna buy a full SP set aswell
Great video man. For some reason my recruit a friend doesnt allow me to grant levels to my recruit it says unable to grant levels to someone who is prestiging. So it only worked before prestiging?
Amazing vid, what level manastorm do you recommend running during a prestige run? I've noticed that for the higher levels I cant run over level 20 manastorms if I really want to zoom through them
After a few runs I've come to the same conclusion, you can maybe shave off a few minutes on the earlier levels by doing 100+ level manastorms but I think its negligable. Probably only relevent if you want to min-max the run haha
It is aswell, but the top end ive seen ST is around 9-15k So very good, but compared to other specs the ST is not in the S tier range Very good all arounder tho
If you have RaF there is another route you can do 1-60 in about 50min, single pot run and you can pot at level 1. Also build-independent so you can do an actual build, decent amount of scrolls because of all the open-world quests
For Fel Infused Weapon, I believe I read that they're maintaining current power level for 2h and reducing dual wield to 40-50% effectiveness in the dev notes on the discord.
There haven't been any numbers in the discord that I've seen. They've said they want to buff it for 2h and nerf it for DW, but no hard numbers like something as drastic as 50%.
@@neraka-z4n ill make a pinned comment on this video, or make a post on RUclips whenever we have more info on Fel Infused nerf Until then, flametongue is a okay replacement
Why do you have lvl 1 items? lvl 10 are best, or if you´re doing manastorms you should open it at lvl 15. 40+ lvl bg bags doesn´t give you stats as it says
Uh there a way too level up faster in Project Ascension ? I'm on free Pick . I can level up , ridiculous fast by just doing a few vanilla quest like Hogger , westfalls etc or the crossroads horde quest , if anything too fast leveling in PA .. level cap in just 3 days
On wildcard we have "prestiege" that makes us wanna lvl again & again to gain new abilities, so we wanna optimize the leveing process On Area52(free pick) you only need to level up once, so the phase dosent matter that much Hopes that cleared it up abit ^^
Have you done a guide on how people do group adventure modes for 50K marks in about 35 minutes? I'm sure you know the builds used this would be a very good guide to make
I've been having fun prestigeing and trying new builds. It felt really unrewarding in terms of endgame progression but I thought I'd just play what I deem fun. After the update I just finished leveling a character and got a ton of free rerolls and thought it was a bug for a minute😂 I'm now on prestige 50, getting so many rerolls now. Still no luck so it doesn't help since I only get 1/3 talents, but other than that nice.
@@Heytrix that's definitely a lot too though! Some days I just didn't know what to do and prestiged the same build like 6 times with aura in hopes of lucky rolls😅
just fyi, do not store your leveling items in realm/personal banks, after a crash or restart, items level requirement will scale back to original store them in your bank!
Hey, Heytrix I watched your ascension s9 hunter videos. I got a really good hunter build if your interested I can comment in a reply. Easy 10K ST, I'm doing 11K plus and still missing many good talents and easy 25K plus on 6 target if you land trick shots talent.

This has been one of the best videos I’ve found for new players like myself. Very good info.
Thanks, man! I'm quite new to Ascension, having Prestiged twice now, and love the Manastorm. I''l be trying some of these tips.
Have another list comming soonTM, and glad to hear!

Great video. Clear, concise, and very informative
Someday I will roll Fel Infused Weapon o7
@@brendon1191 it all come down to that alt farming, it sadly have to be done!
amazing video thank you so much! keep doing the good work!
First! also thank you for the upload, this will help a lot to get my levels up!
Hey bro i see everyone choosing between 4 skills at the start, why i only get 1 kill and cant seem to re roll it at the start?
@@ElGonzaSape hm, could ve cecause its your first run thoght. But not sure
does RAF bonus XP last through prestiges? like it's permanent with that person after you get it? or is it only for one prestige
@@Enzoid-ru5cj its permanent!
My two best pals ive been RaF with for 4-5years, and we only bought it once
I never thought about opening those chests at lvl 1. Good idea.
as usual, great video mate!
how is the world pvp leveling ? when i left seasons ago it died off and nobody was in the world leveling ever.. they would dun spam until max level.
There are multiple two-player mounts. Two were on sale recently. One turns you into a mount and a friend can ride on your back.
Thanks for the guide. Do you go sp gear even for physical builds? whirlwind etc
Both can work, since you get weapon dmg from SP
Im using a STR set when im lvling with Sinister strike, but with the new heirlooms im gonna buy a full SP set aswell
@@Heytrix Great ty. Your videos are excellent btw. Really high quality for ascension.
Great video man.
For some reason my recruit a friend doesnt allow me to grant levels to my recruit it says unable to grant levels to someone who is prestiging. So it only worked before prestiging?
It only works when they create a whole new char
Amazing vid, what level manastorm do you recommend running during a prestige run? I've noticed that for the higher levels I cant run over level 20 manastorms if I really want to zoom through them
i offen just do 1-9 ish and then reset whenever next bad layout

@@tacticalbacon2079 make sence, since your about the strongest those lvls
I remember when Aura of Xp was 100g and the Potion of Xp was 25g...ah the good old days!
But where we can find Fel Infused Weapon??
Isn’t double down / FOK / mental quickness + as many procs as you can get a meta build at max level?
It is aswell, but the top end ive seen ST is around 9-15k
So very good, but compared to other specs the ST is not in the S tier range
Very good all arounder tho
What level manastorms do you start in for prestiging?
Mostly 1-25
so do you get stronger each time prestige?
small margin, but yes
If you have RaF there is another route you can do 1-60 in about 50min, single pot run and you can pot at level 1. Also build-independent so you can do an actual build, decent amount of scrolls because of all the open-world quests

Thats a big rip, but we all knew something lige that was comming

what mythic enchants does caster use ?
Any that fit the skill
And lunar guidance to suppliment
Is this still up to date?
more or less, more heirlooms has been introduced since
also manastorm has been reworked abit, but can still be leveled with
You can no longer prestige with quest caches anymore, I saved all of them and it told me I had them in my bank when I tryd to prestige
What if we do not have fel infused weapon?
Non of the spell caster meantioned uses Fel Infused!
I meant for melee@@Heytrix

You need to get the auto roll Weak Aura. It's a game changer.
Can you auto roll stuff besides opening Sealed Packs?
@@Heytrix I was referring to loot drops. Auto greed on stuff.
@@Heytrix It's called Loot Auto Roller and can be found on the ascension DB
@@Bryan-T ohhh, yeah thats giga annoying! Ty alot, ill look into it

This comment is underrated! Haha
pve power does nothing until level 60
well done
just fyi, do not store your leveling items in realm/personal banks, after a crash or restart, items level requirement will scale back to original
store them in your bank!
Dutch the fun police
FYI, pve power doesn't apply before level 60. Says in the tool tip. Great vid though
ill add it to the pinned edits, to alot!
Leveling guide FOR PEOPLE ALREADY PLAYING THE GAME FOR MONTHS, you should clarify on the title.
can you explain why this dosent apply to newer players? ^^
How does this not apply to new players like me? If I can't use something like heirlooms I just ignore that part
Can't hear you for crap. Max volume.
I checked AH. NO lvl 1 gear whatsoever
Then its maybe because the stats change sadly, so have to farm self
Yeah, when put into ah the gear reverts to its' original piece it was before scaling was applied. So it might suddenly become lvl 30, 45 or whatever.
