Okay, I'm not trying to max that much

I did the walkable area of Orobas and then went to Maxos. I'm on Sentinel island and I was about 1/5 to level 19 and she took me the rest of the way. The Dragon Elves are 16, so I'm not getting much from them. I normally skip everything after becoming a a dragon, though I did play through the game once, so I could see the new content in Flames. I'm not sure if I can slog through the boring dragon parts to get to Flames a second time. I remember enjoying Flames though, so perhaps. I'm picking my team for the Battle Tower, though if I recall it doesn't matter except for certain people give quests. I'll look at some of your other posts to maximize the questing. I may use the cheat portion of the DC to play the dragon in god mode. That should make it less of a hassle

Bring on the alpha of D: OS
P.S. The game is fairly easy because I lucked into a piece of Elder gear from the demon. It had 75 magic damage, which is like a level 9 enchant. I broke it down and put it on stuff I could equip. I've got it on Talana's axe and Rothman's bow and find I'm using to bow and killing everything even though I only have one point spent in the bow skill line. I've got one point in explosive arrow and I have an item with one more point.
I use Talana's axe if I need to heal or up my mana. I enchanted it with the 75 magic damage too, so it does great damage and has a life leech and a mana leech enchant also. I love that magic damage on weapons translates to spells.
