Hi everyone, I recently leveled my MNK to 15 so as to accompany my level 25 WAR and found it really easy!

First time of posting a tutorial on here so I hope it can be of some use.

What you are going to need
-Some starting gill (About 8000)
-Cesti and Ryl. Footman Cesti
-Level 1 and level 8 armour sets for MNK (The robe set, and the Kenpogi set)

What you will need with your starting Gill
The level 1 and level 8 MNK armour sets.
AND: I STRONGLY suggest you go out and buy 2 stacks of Meat Mithkabobs
and around 5 Pear Au Laits(The more the better but only buy what you can afford, the meat mithkabobs are most important)

Level 1 to 3
Ok for these levels you will be needing a CESTI and the Level 1 MNK armour set.

Once you have equipped all of these head out to SOUTH GUSTABERG.
Once here, kill Tunnel Worms and Huge Wasps until level 3, this shouldnt take too long at all.

Level 3 to 6
Ok, now you are level 3 head to the hill just outside and a little to the left of the SOUTH GUSTABERG entrance. Here you can fight Stone Eaters and Maneating hornets.
Stay away from Gobs as they agro and they WILL kill you at level 3 to 4.

Level 6 to 8
Time for the fast leveling to begin!
Grab your level 8 gear from your mog house and head out to NORTH GUSTABERG(The second entrance). Keep going until you reach the bridge, once there you will see Quadavs, Lizards and Walking Saplings.
Use one of your Mithkabobs and a Pear Au Lait if you have one and head into battle with these.
Once your mithkabob or pear au lait runs out use another and continue to battle.
There will be no need to stop for healing as the Pear Au Lait has REGEN effect!
You should be getting around 72 to 100 experience per battle here until level 8.

Level 8 to 12
Ok, now your level 8 equip your new armour and you now have a choice.
You can either stay here and continue to kill Quadavs and Lizards, which will give you around 50 experience until you hit aorund level 9 then about 36 until level 10.
(Now equip your Ryl Footman Cesti)
OR you can move into Konschat Highlands and kill the Strolling saplings there which should be Even Matches or Decent challenges.
Remember to use your Mithkabobs and Pear Au Laits when needed as you WILL need them.
You should get to level 12 in no time at all, as again you should be getting about 100 exp per battle.

Level 12 to 15
Ok the final stretch, you can go back to Bastok and get some new armour if you wish but it is not entirely necessary.
Now once your are prepared head off to Valkurm Dunes and grab youself a party!

I suggest you start on the lizards until level 13. Then get your party to head off to the beach near Selbina and take camp there.
There you can fight snippers and some gobs, but DO NOT get Goblin Leechers or Gamblers!

Also if you can manage it try and get yourself a power leveler, this will make your leveling ALOT easier. But it is not essential.

And there you have it, easy leveling from 1 to 15 MNK.

Hope you enjoyed it and I hope it works for you!

I managed to get from level 1 to 9 in a day(school day) and then 9 to 15 the next(from 1PM to 10PM hehe)

Thanks, ~HitmanTG!
