Is the game dead below lv 99?

Hello. I stopped playing when Ertheia came out, ive played a ****tone of mmos since then but everyone had some problem. I though Blade and Soul was epic, but boo hoo was published by ncsoft, so it became so ****. Anyways im thinking of returning to my favourite game ever but i dont know if its worth it. Is there an active community below 99? Are there any instances for lower lv people? How hard is to go 85 nowadays? Are there guilds recruiting new people?
Thanks

 

1-85, 1 or 2 days.

and well, if u can pay a bit, u get 99 in less than a month.

 

Care to elaborate how to hit 85 in 2 days? Last time i remember we hunted for raid bosses waiting hours and hours. Paying you mean premium, and 99 to a month? Lol that seemed impossible back then

 

lvlup by doing quests.

 

when last uptade was alive Hymn of the Soul Update, there was free runes, Iwas able to hit from 85 to 99 lvl in 20 days

 

like they said, u just need to do the quests. Dont hunt rb, just kill if u catch one on eventually... And if its a good exp one.

yes, premium is essencial. When i said pay, its for tickets for redo some instances everyday, vitality replenishment items, etc. U get it ig when u start.

and yes, there are some small clans pve oriented

 

Pre 85 you can do quests or at least I suggest you to do one every hour at least, for that bard buff (100% exp) then exp around, hope you know the best exp locations. After 85 just do daily instances and 300 fairy quest if you feeling grindy. With pa, maphrs and passes you will 100/100 in a month on instances alone. For the love of god do kartia in duo or trio or else forget a month.

Dont forget to nag ppl for exalted buff, get academy cricket and if you are in extra gurry buy an exp rune for after 85. Pre 85 you get them for free.

 

and do kartia saving exp
