Where to train at level 11-20
These maps give the most EXP per hour for a character around level 16, worked out from each map's monsters: how many spawn, their EXP and their HP. Your own numbers depend on your class, your attack and how busy the channel is. MesoLens's grind tracker shows your real EXP per hour while you play.
