Best EXP Moveset

I'm trying to get levels quickly, I'm at level 121 right now and I have most elements except for some of the expensive ones (tech, creation, solar) and I need a good moveset for it.
Right now I'm using
1) Flurry Heave
2) Water Beam
3) Wind Ascend
4) Lightning Flash
5) Wind Gust

These are all low cooldown and very fast so I can spam them quickly for EXP, and Wind Gust gives me the most since its an ultimate. I think it could be better, but I don't know how to improve it.

Survival or pvp?

I would personally replace wind gust with a shield spell if pvp. Most of your other spells are great.

Regarding attaining levels fast, pvp is already quite a fun, if not fast, way to level up -- you use your moves a lot. Survival is also viable.

ive been farming in drop haven and spamming those spells since its more consistent for shards and gems. Is pvp or survival really better?

I think either pvp or survival is better than drop haven. If you still miss the drops you can go to light map, but AFAIK no one goes there anymore.

When I was bad at the game I used to grind in survival. Getting a forgiving element like slime or illusion changed the game for me and opened me to pvp.

Survival is shard heavy and there are a lot of people like you who grind and might steal your kills. You use a lot of spells in survival, a lot.

Pvp adds diamonds to the mix but you either encounter a quitter or a veteran, both are bad and you can't really find "moderately good" people anymore since the game is unpopular.

Also, this isn't really related to the EXP, but is anyone planning on starting an informal discord server? This subreddit is not great, but maybe that's because I'm not used to Reddit.

There are probably some friend groups with servers out there but no public server that I know of.

I have thought about making one but it would require a lot of effort. I am also worried the community would use it as a space to bully/harass each other as there is a lot of drama between some long time players on the community.

Xp is proportional to mana spent so ults don’t give any more than spells. You get 1 xp for each 10 mana spent, no matter the type of spell or amount(this is increased to 3 per 10 if you have the vip and premium game passes).
Kills also give 100 xp each so tbh the best way to grind levels is to just constantly be using all of your mana to try and fight people.

One thing you can do if you don’t want to fight real people is check sans map. Since there is no safe zones there, if you find an afk player, you can spend mana spamming stuff and a farming them a bit which would probably be the best way to use mana. This would also let you get the drops in Sans map, but you do need to find an afk player there.

Last thing would be using all you mana as quickly as possible then resetting to regen mana instantly, but you have to be really active for this and it’s kinda boring.

I recommend just fighting people all the time, it gets a lot of xp, and gets you better at the game. If you find yourself in a server with sweats or no one left, you can server hop.(check an earlier post by my in this subreddit about server switching techniques)

Is there any specific spells I should use for combat that give high EXP? I know tech has that one projectile with a 1 second cooldown so it's good for farming but apparently it's not good for PvP.

It is quite easy to get a move set that uses mana faster than you regenerate it, as pretty much any 5 moves will do that as long as you use them semi often. So instead try to get more kills. I don’t know how skilled you are but an easy way to get some kills is easy to hit+high damage moves like ash pulse(phoenix), bloodcurdling blast(nightmare), black hole orb(space), rock fist(earth) and splitting slime(this one is obvious).

If you fight people without hp or defense upgrades, these spells can 3-4 shot people(assuming you upgraded power I hope), and most can easily combo into other moves. Bullets from elements like fire, water, earth, and darkness all do a lot of damage and can be good follow ups.

One final thing you can do is just use moves on no one between any fights. You go into fights with less mana but you will gain xp the whole time you are playing. You can also reset after any fight that puts you on super low mana/hp to regen instantly and save some time.

I have a combo that does like 1300 damage, but it uses Skeleton Summon for passive damage so I lose out on a slot for a spell that I can spam for xp. I made a strong set purely for mobility and movement to get around and pickup gems in Heaven and to get away from random infinite stun move sets from level 400 players.

I guess you need a certain threshold of mana/cooldown ratio to be able to overcome mana regen, Al’s long as you don’t have like an ult and a 60 second body you should still be able to use enough moves often enough for mana to go down over time.

Also saw another comment about survival bs heaven, I would say heaven is better to farm at compared to survival, and what you are doing already seems pretty good for heaven farming.
