Whats the best thing for a level 20 sword to train on?

[Maximvs]

Im level 20 cutlass, and a level 25 notoriety, and i am working to get to level 30 notoriety, and i want to train on the best thing i could train on so i could get things done faster. Can anyone help me???

Stop. You should stop *right now* and grab each of your weapons and work each a few levels (take your pistol, work it two levels - take your doll, work it two levels - take all other weapons and work it two levels - anything under L4 gets work to L4 + 2 more for L6).

You're still a mess - but this will begin the balencing process. First by working all the other low weapons to level 6 (if already higher than 6 - work them 2 levels) you are rewarded over 200 additional HP and additional Voodoo which you'll need to begin the re-balence.

Now take gernades to KingsHead fence and level them up as far as you can (You'll probably hit 30 with these alone...). Gernades are painful to level after Level 30 so get them out of the way (look for Gernade Guides in the Tips Forums).

Now you're at L30 with Gernades out of the way - grab the staff and get it to L6 (Wither plus 2 points). While working to get the staff - use ONLY the other weapons to kill enemies (not your Sword) unless necessary! You've relyed too heavy on the sword and it now need a 'long overdue rest'

With your new staff, go back to ther other weapons and level each of these up to L10-12 (this wil be some work - no one day adventure there...) - then take your shiny L6 staff and go to KH and begin Withering the Formation in the Grounds (the same group that you used to level those Gernades behind the KH fence in those guides you're gonna go read ) and take it up until the formation goes "grey" - probably L15 for your staff because your Notiety will still be a bit high...

But this basically fixes you up (these are REALLY rough steps) - your sword will be L20, your other weapons will be around 12-13 and your staff at 15... then just keep working those owther weapons (using the sword now on occasion) - and you'll find Noriety 40 eventually

You got about 1300 hp points... at least on my experimental pirate I had about that much.

LoL that's not terribly bad, I've seen people with lvl 16 notoriety with lvl 20 cutlass, and I've also seen people who are lvl 20 notoriety with mastered cutlass before... what's to say Casterwall hasn't mastered grenades yet since he's lvl 25?

The only pirate I've done anything like that was my biggest pirate on my experimental account, I had my blades & grenades kinda close to each other. Gun & doll are easy to lvl imo plus I wanted to see what my weapons skills would be like, since I don't plan on mastering this pirate or anything or even coming close.


Getting to the end of lvl 24, I didn't level anything but nades + 200 or so cutlass rep to lvl 20 cutlass and ended up at lvl 24 notoriety with mastered grenades.

I lvled mostly in the Quarry for this pirate, mostly killing mercs, officers, hired guns. When you're a bit higher in notoriety, I'd say go to El Suderon or PDF Beach or Outcast like Pirategirl09 said...
