For players who have never ventured into the world of the Great Age of Sail series, the initial experience can often feel unfamiliar and confusing, especially when it comes to the training battles at the beginning, which can indeed be challenging. Don't worry; there are techniques for how to level up quickly in the Great Age of Sail training battles. Next, we will detail effective training methods in this game, so that everyone can find a suitable development pace at different stages.
In the beginner stage, around levels 1-50, this is a critical period for laying the foundation. First, you must closely follow the main storyline missions, making them your top priority, and push forward until you are restricted by level. During this process, not only can you become familiar with the game's plot and operation, but also accumulate a large amount of initial resources and experience. At the same time, do not ignore the commission tasks; if you complete these tasks diligently, it is enough to let you solo level up to about level 20.
When you reach the 20-40 level range, teaming up becomes a powerful tool for accelerating leveling. If you encounter a high-level player willing to lead the team, then doing Genoa or Tunis missions is definitely the best choice, as its efficiency far exceeds solo play. If you don't have such a capable teammate, you can choose to join a team as a "corpse" role, meaning following the leaders to gain experience, which can still help you quickly climb to levels 35-40. Once you reach levels 40-50, you should continuously participate in team activities in the Alexandria region. If possible, boldly take on the role of the leader, because being a leader not only gives an additional 10% experience bonus, but adding another 10% from being a novice soldier, will make leveling even faster.
However, during this period, it is particularly important to, after completing the main story in the Eastern Mediterranean, clearly define your career development direction. After all, different career paths will affect subsequent skill learning and equipment matching. Once you reach level 50, it means that your skill system and equipment configuration have taken shape, and you have the basic conditions to start solo mode. Entering the solo phase is around levels 50-100. Although this method can bring high experience rewards and rapid level increases, it also requires more stringent player strength.
At this point, as the core force of the entire fleet, the flagship's equipment must meet the corresponding standards, and the weapons and armor equipped by the lieutenants cannot be inferior, at least above medium level to cope with various complex battle situations. Here, the artillery and infantry professions have distinct characteristics. Artillery is known for its powerful burst, mainly relying on ship cannons for damage output. If you are a big spender, having a lieutenant with a cannon board attribute at level 5 or above, along with advanced cannon equipment, can display earth-shattering firepower on the battlefield.
Infantry, on the other hand, excels in close combat, dealing high melee damage, and has relatively lower cultivation costs, making it more suitable for small spenders or casual players. However, it is necessary to have a high level of infantry skills and well-balanced body equipment. It should be noted, however, that if the infantry's equipment is not excellent, it is easy to be counter-killed in battle. Therefore, extra caution is needed when choosing this path. To get high-experience tasks, there is a trick: try to use higher-level ships in battles, with no less than five ships, and for reinforcement missions, it is best to deploy ten ships, so that the firepower is sufficient.
Additionally, there is a small trick for taking on higher-level tasks. Before reaching level 70, you can try to undertake tasks 10-15 levels higher than your own. After reaching level 70 and with fully formed equipment, you can even challenge tasks 20-40 levels higher. Of course, this requires top-tier ship equipment and robust personal protection. Currently, recognized high-experience tasks in the game include the 14th task at level 80, which upon completion, grants over 2700 experience points, considered the highest experience reward in the current version.
Also, when the character reaches levels 72/73/75, tasks located in the Caribbean Sea are suitable for participation due to their high experience gains and relative ease of completion. If you want to further enhance your strength through equipment farming, the following battleship-level tasks are worth trying: at levels 102, 107, 108, 109, 113, 115, 117, and 120. However, ensure that the second member of the team has sufficiently thick armor, otherwise, there is a greater chance of being defeated by the opposing side.
To summarize, the key to leveling up quickly in the Great Age of Sail training battles is to focus on the priorities at different stages. In the early stages, rely on teamwork and tasks to steadily grow, and in the later stages, leverage strong individual strength to enter solo mode. Regardless of which stage you are in, continuously improving your own strength is essential.
