How to raise your NPC buddy

Re: How to raise your NPC buddy

Umm... I think it's been mentioned that npcs around lvl 37 and higher last for 20 kills after the August 1st update.

Draganwarlord:
I haven't been able to tell what triggers it yet.

I think it has to be around 35 that the change occurs. Reason being is that the NPC levels we had were 30, 32, 34, 35, 38, 40. The lv. 30, 32, and 34 all theirs went first then the 35 and 38 went at 20 kills, then finally the 40 went at 25 kills.

But if someone didn't get that change right at 35 like the guy that got it at 37 then it might be possible that it's also another bonus from the number of calls done? Not sure though, because if it is that then how'd the lv. 40 last 25 kills have to be some heck of a bonus at whatever calls it is.

my lvl 44 only lasts 20 kills. and a spt-mate's lvl 41 only lasts 20 kills too. I never heard of a 25 kill run until now.

i read a post in alakazam (i'm not sure thats how its spelled) that mentioned someone useind a healer NPC in their party and the whole party liked it despite getting 70% exp, i hope this doesnt reduce the number of whm invites and screw up the current system.... not that it will, just a thought

the thing is, only the one that called the NPC gets the 70% exp

Re: How to raise your NPC buddy

I think that's a good thing. My NPC would only be cannon fodder in ballista matches as of now -_-;

Re: How to raise your NPC buddy

Has anyone hit 50 with their NPC? Will we have to do some sort of Limit Break like we did for ourselves?

Re: How to raise your NPC buddy

I know that someone posted a list of recommended places for NPC leveling based on your NPC's level. I can't seem to find this list anymore. Does anyone remember what page that was on?

Re: How to raise your NPC buddy

I made this own list for my own purposes. But maybe it'll help. Just remember mobs you fight much be 7 (to be safe) or more lvls higher than your npc.

Edit: See my post at:

Re: How to raise your NPC buddy

To be honest, I was looking more or less for something from 37-48. But this is handy information none the less. Anyone else have something for the lower levels?

Just do Altepa and Zi'tah (around the outpost) before Xarcabard.
