Leveling and Progression

Level badges run from 10 to 60 in steps of 10, and the award counts tell you which level matches which land. There is no published experience table, so do not hunt a secret per-kill value. Play the next land you can clear. Levels arrive beside those clears.

The six level badges

On 15 November 2026 the counts were Adept, level 10, at 19,419 awards; Magus, level 20, at 5,168; Archmage, level 30, at 1,799; Grandmaster, level 40, at 678; Loremaster, level 50, at 254; Living Legend, level 60, at 33. Living Legend was added on 8 November, the same day as the Labyrinth of Legends badge. The level cap in the public badges is 60. Nothing announces a level 70.

Read the ladder next to the lands. Level 10 is more common than Frostfang Pass (13,182) and less common than the Forest (55,313). You should be Adept, or close to it, while Frostfang is still hard. Level 20 sits beside the Sunken Dunes (6,266) and Thaddeus Crowe (5,211). Level 30 sits beside Galecrag (2,029). Level 40 sits between Ashen Caldera (1,075) and Blightroot Hollow (474). Level 50 matches Gambit Court (256). Level 60 matches the Labyrinth (44). These are crowd sizes, not printed requirements. If you are under the neighboring level and the land will not die, go get the level. If you are over it and the land still will not die, the problem is the deck, not the number.

How to level without wasting the session

Clear each land once on the normal rule before you tick Insane. Insane, any area, had 8,294 awards, which is more common than a level 20 badge. Players grind Insane early. That is a choice, not the fastest story route. The story route is the next clear badge you do not have.

Raise one card toward Tier V while you level. Perfected had 6,750 awards, in the same band as the dunes. A Tier V card does more for the next land than another hour in a land you have already cleared. Hatch a pet if you do not have one, then stop hatching. Companion had 42,592 awards, so the first pet is early. Further eggs are a side activity.

What not to do

Do not delete a character because a land feels slow. The third character slot pass is not even on sale, and the game does not say you keep level progress on a wipe. No wipe or rebirth system is published. Spend the stall on the deck and on Frostfang, the first real drop in the crowd.

Keep going with Lands, Cards, Difficulties, Quests, Farming, and Bosses.
