	Continue to keep [[stats]] relatively balanced except for INT (unless maging) and replace your gear every ~30 [[level]]s. Gear of your own [[level]] is better since you will not be [[soulfusing]] for a while. Getting level 10 potency in [[Item World]] gives a nice offensive boost for melee weapons.

Gear of your own [[level]] is better since you will not be [[soulfusing]] for a while. Getting level 10 potency in [[Item World]] gives a nice offensive boost for melee weapons.

			===Leveling Adjustments===
			As you progress in [[level]]s you'll start facing monsters with increased [[Power Level]]s, mostly above PL 400 (and thus with powerful spirit attacks). Most of the fights will become significantly more difficult at roughly level 150+. There's a few adjustments you can do:
			*Lower your [[difficulty]] setting until you get accustomed to the new monsters. Try to play on at least Hard level to obtain [[shard]]s.
			*Get better [[Equipment Basics\|equipment]] (especially a better [[weapon]]). Do not worry if its a few levels lower than you, the stat difference isn't that big.
			*Utilize your deprecating [[spell]]s such as Weaken, Silence, and Sleep.
			*Use more buffs, such as Haste, Protection, Shadow Veil, etc.
			*It may be wise to invest in an [[Innate Arcana]] slot if you haven't already. The first slot costs 50 [[hath]].
			*Make sure your accuracy is at least 100% to ensure your attacks won't miss. Further accuracy up to 194.8% reduces monsters' chance to evade your attacks.

	Same styles remain viable. But some things change because level 310 allows maxing out the 'Faster Imperil' [[ability]] which lets you spam imperil with no cooldown.
