31 + 10 = 41. 41 / 2 = 20.5. So, search for level 21+ enemies here and knock yourself out. I recommend Padres beach and/or Outcast Island...assuming you know how to get healing from green people.

Also, please stop. Level ONLY grenades until they are level 25.

Sadley Ed no one listens. Once you have obtained grenades I totally agree run them up to 25 at the expense of everything else. You will be repaid with gold, reps and fast leveling. It's much harder later to find suitable enemies for grenades that will give you all the benefits.

Also, please stop. Level ONLY grenades until they are level 25.

Good advice, but not very helpful without explanation, I would recommend TEACHING newer players/pirates, instead of dictating to them.

That being said.

Most more experienced pirates will work on their grenades considerably upon obtaining them, as they are the hardest to master, and the higher level your pirate becomes (through questing, and leveling of other weapons), the harder leveling the grenades will come. Hence the indirect recommendation of leveling your grenades as soon as possible.

This might be a stupid question, but is there any really compelling reason to level up grenades all the way other than to max out the passives? I'm at L18 grenades (L31 pirate, currently levelling staff), and don't know if it's worth the boring work to continue levelling grenades. I didn't start my pirate knowing about the ridiculous "more hits == more exp" levelling system in this game, so my weapons are unbalanced (and too much early questing). My doll for instance is only 16 and I want to level that.

I never cease to be irritated by one of the worst possible levelling systems ("Hey, let's punish people for doing quests and adding skill points to their attacks!") and yet I still play.
