Fallen Sword Buffing and Potion Guide

This is a short guide you can use as a reference to search the auction house & find the potions you need so you can get cheap powerful buffs. You don't need to completely depend on the guild, more expensive potions, or other players to get these buffs. So use this freely as long as you're not bidding against me at the AH (auction house)! *wink*

From the start, here's some key buffs you should ALWAYS use (for xp). These all work together synergistically & make a huge impact on how much XP you gain (if you use ALL of them especially!). Missing one of them will prevent you from maximizing your XP. (offensive buffs are only critical if you're not 1-hitting & that's another subject, but I have also included them in what I've listed):

Critcal Skills for XP Gain
Adept Learner
Librarian
Conserve
Animal Magnetism
Doubler

Critical Gold Gain Skills
Treasure Hunter
Merchant
(Doubler will effect this too)

The auction house is your friend when it comes to buffs. New players don't realize there are many AH buffs you can get quite cheap if you're good at bidding on auctions and you're willing to spend some time. For each potion, just use the search function at the auction house with the text name of the potion, then sort by starting bid amount.

If you're using several potions get the BREWING MASTER buff from a guildmate; (or pay a buffer 10k) this skill TRIPLES the length of the potion timer at level 150. This will increase the duration of your potions (some only last 15 minutes!). The key here, is that you can be a level 5 player, using deathwish, animal magnetism, conserve, adept learner, librarian, you name it! So take a look at this list & start leveling faster!
