Why EXP Quests Matter in Artale
MapleStory Artale's gameplay keeps that old-school feel, but leveling in the early game can still be a bit of a grind. With over a thousand quests scattered across the game, it's easy to overlook the ones that offer the best return for your time.
What separates the quests below from the rest is:
• High EXP rewards (many giving 200k+)
• Simple kill objectives
• Valuable items drop while you grind
• Rich storytelling that adds immersion to your journey
The Monster Hunt Questline (Nautilus – Levels 10 to 70)
This is easily one of the most efficient leveling routes on Victoria Island. Starting from a humble crumpled letter in a trash can, this questline evolves into a full-blown monster-hunting spree that can net you over 1.5 million EXP in total.
Prerequisite: The Abandoned Letter (Level 10)
• Head to the top floor hallway in Nautilus and click the trash can.
• Show the letter to Mir hat, then take it to Athena Pierce in the Bowman School.
