San d'Oria to Bastok?
Okay, obviously I'm pretty new to the game, otherwise I would know this stuff. But how do I get to Bastok from San d'Oria? ((I am aware that I have little if no chance at all of successfully making it through at my current level, 15. Still, I would like to give it a shot.))

Re: San d'Oria to Bastok?
Actually, at 15 you have a fairly high chance of making it there. It's a rather simple trip, really.

Start in S.Sandy, and move south into West Ronfaure. From there head south to LaTheine Plateau. From LaTheine, you'll head Southeast until you reach the entrance to Valkurm Dunes, which will be the only really difficult part of the trip. If you haven't already, make a short detour to the Crag of Holla to pick up the tele crystal there. It'll come in handy later.

Once in Valkurm head Southeast, avoiding Goblin aggro as you go (remember they aggro by sight). You'll head through a tunnel, where you will have to deal with some bats, but they shouldn't prove to be too much of a problem at your level. From there continue heading East to the Konschtat Highlands.

Head South through Konschtat, stopping to pick up the Dem Crystal at the Crag of Dem along the way. You'll head through some winding valleys, which will eventually lead you to North Gustaberg. From there it's just a short jaunt South to South Gustaberg, at which point you'll head East to get to the entrance of either Bastok Markets, or Bastok Mines further on.

All of this will be made easier by purchasing some maps from one of the vendors in Sandoria. There is a woman near the fountain in North Sandy that should have everything you need.

Good luck!

San d'Oria > West Ronfaure > La Theine Plateau > Valkurm Dunes > Konschtat Highlands > North Gustaberg > South Gustaberg > Bastok.


Might wanna get yourself some maps. And you can make it at level 15. Just do your best to avoid aggro in Valkurm Dunes and some in La Theine.

If you don't have all the maps.

Here is a link to a great map site that will show you how to get there and maps for all the zones you will go through.
