How to Level Up Quickly in the Endgame
Once you hit level 30, the challenge of leveling up increases significantly as earlier areas yield less experience points. The ideal location for endgame leveling is outside the Beastman Village, as shown in the image above. You can aggro individual Beastmen and defeat them sequentially, reducing the risk of being overwhelmed by multiple enemies.
How to Find and Join the Demon Sect in Rune Slayer
The Demon Sect stands out as the best late-game faction to align with in Rune Slayer. Though other factions are available, you can explore those options further in this guide.
Gaining access to this sect can be challenging as it lies within the depths of Balgaron Chasm.
- Head south-west from the entrance of the Chasm until reaching a narrow bridge.
- Perform parkour across the bridges, moving westward.(Pause at Frost Hallow to regenerate health.)
- Continue parkouring downward, jumping along the edges until you spot a Red Lantern.
- Follow the lanterns and then drop down the lava waterfall to reach the Demon Sect.
