I'm level 16 Twin sword user as a 1st character. Its pretty lame trying to level up, but given the game is new to the US I'm sure that someone will figure something out. I like the Game as it is, and hope for more content in the months to come.

You will get alot of frineds while you lvling and doing quests later ^^. If you want to lvl up fast, do the main quest until reach Underground Cavern and look for pt over there until you reach 30+ and continue doing main quest for unlock next town and new grinding spot.
Enjoy your game
