02 / THE LONG ROAD

Leveling roadmap

EXP gem boosts, next-level kill estimates, and power-aware top monster recommendations for every bracket.

1 → 1 BILLION
How to read this: route steps are an EXP-versus-monster-difficulty planning model, not measured EXP/hour. Portal access, hit rate, deaths, gear, event bonuses, and combat speed can change what is fastest for you.
THE EXP LAB

Your gems → your leveling time

Model your equipped EXP bonuses and estimate kills from the game's actual Next Level XP requirement.

PERSONAL EXP CALCULATOR
01 / SOCKETED EXP GEMS

Gems by grade

Add Atmashidade or Petalite in any combination. Quantity represents equipped copies—not drops in your inventory.

02 / ACCESSORY & BONUSES

Experience multipliers

One accessory at a time; options use the guide's documented effects. Upgraded versions are listed separately.

03 / LEVEL BAR & KILL SPEED

Calibrate your fight

The current game's level-cost formula is not publicly verified. The entered Next Level value anchors your next-level count; future-bracket estimates use your selected scenario and are not official requirements.

04 / POWER-AWARE MONSTER RANKING

Best EXP monster + 3 alternatives

The seconds-per-kill and observed EXP above refer to the current roadmap target. Measure a short run at your current damage, accuracy, gear and healing pace. Power factor 1 uses that pace; 2 models twice the combat throughput, not twice any single stat.

Estimates, not exact game formulas: time = overhead + (reference seconds − overhead) × (monster difficulty / reference difficulty)^1.25 / power. Overhead is capped at 90% of reference seconds. Difficulty is a toughness proxy, not HP. Only monsters below your sustainable ceiling and map level gate are ranked. Enter a ceiling you can survive repeatedly; death, resistance and accuracy formulas are unavailable. Future brackets hold your entered power fixed. EXP gems, accessory, other bonuses and optional observed EXP calibration use the existing EXP model. Shared bonuses scale all candidates equally, so they do not change rank. Original roadmap targets and kill estimates remain below as a separate baseline.

DROP KEY Each ★ is one gem grade (★ = Grade 1, ★★★ = Grade 3); a range means the zone can drop those grades. “Shadow” appears only when the official map lists Shadow drops. The listed 1/N values are published base rates before bonuses—not a guarantee every N fights.

Access ≠ safety. The level shown is the published zone entrance level, not a guarantee you can survive the monsters or reach every nested portal. Rates are base odds; bonuses, events and special drops can change results.

CHECK YOUR EQUIP READINESS

Your current stats

Enter the stats from Shimlar to calculate how far you are from each gear target. These values stay in this browser.

About these stat numbers: The numeric equip targets below use historical Shimlar formulas (Fire spell NTL = IC × 200, armor VIT = IC × 150, weapon STR / bow DEX = IC × 200). They are planning baselines, not verified live requirements. The current game says requirements vary by class and race; the item’s Examine window is authoritative.
ITEM CLASSPRICE EACHEQUIP LEVELFIRE SPELL · NTL TARGET / SELLERARMOR · VIT TARGET / SELLERWEAPON · STR/DEX TARGET / SELLER

Shop prices are per item, not for a full set. The stat tracker checks the historical target only—not buffs, profession effects, class/race variations, or in-game restrictions. For shields, the historical STR target is IC × 120; for Arcane/Heal, NTL is IC × 130. Confirm actual equip requirements with Examine before buying. Shop availability comes from public map records; carry the gold you need.

08 / THE NPC CHRONICLE

Zone quests & Conquests

Permanent rewards offered by NPCs throughout Shimlar—not the rotating QuestMaster board.

40 RECORDED CONQUESTS
Exact-item checklist: Quantities below are the documented collection totals for each NPC chain, not necessarily what you need on your current stage. Progressive conquests display a live /conquest check instead of invented quantities. A few requirements were corrected against Shimlar's official changelog where it conflicts with the wiki.

These are NPC Conquests listed on the game wiki. The source currently describes 39 in its introduction but includes a 40th table entry. Rewards are generally permanent except Gem Hunter; verify current requirements in-game with /conquests before gathering rare items.

Which enchantment fits which emblem, its bonus, its trade-off, and what each rank costs.

Each emblem can hold only one enchantment at a time, even if two choices are listed.

One rank corresponds to one gem grade. Most enchants boost one effect while reducing another.

Badge conquest exception: Open Water and Swamp of Sadness contain special monsters only for Badge Conquest. Do not use those two zones as general special-farming recommendations.

SPECIAL / TIERSTATSGOLDEXPITEM CLASS / DHOTHER EFFECTS & REWARDSFIRE MAGE VERDICT
Multipliers are relative to the underlying monster. “4× EXP” means four times the base monster EXP, before your personal EXP bonuses; it is not a guaranteed fourfold increase in EXP/hour. Tier rarity is relative, not a published encounter probability. The bot's fight/skip options remain manual choices and do not predict special spawn rates.
11 / THE CARTOGRAPHER'S NOTES

Sources & methodology

What the atlas knows, what it estimates, and what remains unverified.

What “optimized” means here

The leveling route uses publicly listed monster base EXP, reported difficulty, and verified portal-path availability as a conservative planning model. It is a suggested progression—not a mathematically proven optimum. Actual EXP/hour also depends on hits per kill, miss rate, your spells, armor, player-level scaling, death frequency, and bonuses.

Farming rankings compare accessible zone entry levels, base gem/shadow odds, and gem grade ceilings. A listed 1 / 300 means one event per 300 kills on the base table, not a guarantee every 300 kills.

The official map index currently tops out at level 15,000,000. The guide covers character levels through 1,000,000,000 by recommending the highest documented endgame content after that ceiling, without claiming new maps exist.

Verification reminder: This is a snapshot of the public map archive saved October 8, 2026, cross-checked with the public map index in late October. Wiki information, drops, bonuses and in-game commands can change. Check live game data before making expensive decisions.
