Well i was talkin to someone and they said o yeah getting to Lvl 9/10 is easy lvling up from there............

One problem.......

Its so friggin hard to get to!!!!!!

L7 took me like two months to get past and ive been L8 For a week or so
and have barely gotten to the half-way mark!

I just needed to get that out
 
Are you taking the Solo route to 10? If not you probably should - start Partying 10 and after! If you're also having a really hard time with de-leveling try fighting easy-DC mobs, I know the XP sucks but those 12-30 XP's add up! It's the route I'm taking with my theif - I'm to embarassed by my lack of melee skills to inflict that sort of pain on a party :P
 
What is your home country? I'm from Windy and with advice from a good friend, I have a set method of getting Lvl 1-10 solo. In terms of equipment and such, I leave that up to you...however, since you are a warrior, I suggest getting some kind of ranged weapon as it does double to triple the amount of dmg of your normal attack...a lil more expensive but I think it's entirely worth it. Also, if you can afford it, mithkabobs make things 1000Xs easier. I see that you are lvl 7 but I'll give the whole rundown from Lvl 1-10 anyways. To start, exit out of Windhurst Woods and take a right and head south towards the ocean cliff (G12~H12) . Start pegging off everything with your bow (or crossbow, etc.) and just keep it up until lvl 4~5. At this point I head over to the S.E. Tower and fight around there until lvl 8. This is a good place for crawlers, crows and gobs...I generally leave rarabs alone as they have crap drops. It might also be a good idea to have a stack of Selbina Milk(or antidotes though more expensive) with you in case you are poisoned by the crawlers and Gobby BLMs. If you can upgrade your bow and arrows at lvl 7, this makes things much easier as well. It might seem that you are getting crappy xp from lvl 7-8 in this area (18-25 epr battle) but the thing is that you can plow throught he mobs so you can still rake in the XP at a faster rate...that and the next area is much easier if you are lvl 8. At this point, I head over to W. Saru and fight Giant Bees, Crows, Yags and Crawlers (Mandys = crap drops IMO) on and around Starfall Hillocks and the outpost. I find lvling from 8-10 takes as long as getting from 1-7 and can be very frustrating and tedious; however, stick it out and you'll have lvl 10 and can start partying with a vengence. I hope this helps you and hopefully others out.
 
This must be a joke?
Having hard time as a WAR? :shock:

If you're that bored, I advise you a lil'trip to Bastok.
Lv 1-6 : Zehrun Mines
Lv 6-11 : South Gustaberg, especially Vomp Hill
Lv 11-15 : Dangruf Wadi.
 
Konstact highlands... worms.... thats it. Stay there till level 12. then to vakrums dunes. or alt.
 
Having made 1->11 solo for warrior, 1->15 solo for thief and monk, 1->9 solo for WHM and 1->12 solo for PAL, I highly recommend the zones in the post from Farys (its normal, i was his advisor when he wanted to solo thief to 15). Soloting is a bit hard without a subjob (with the good subjob you can solo tough mob at level 7), and pretty long with the 10-30 xp from easy preys, but, in return, you will have a pretty good amonts of drops, so you will be able to buy great equiment for your first parties (zehrun, vomp hill and dangruf are especially good for that, lots of wind/fire crystals and bat wings/beehive cheeps/ gob drops).

An alternative if you are from windy should be saruta (east or west) and giddeus (silk/yag drops).
I dont really know for sandoria because i've never leveled here, but ronfaure -> gelsba seems to be good too (but a little more dangerous i think).

Good luck in your leveling :)
