@(you need an account to see links) I am also on level 10 but I feel like my XP Meter is stalled out for some reason.

I’m in a similar boat at a higher level. The various plot quest elements helped me level up in the earlier segments of the game but I’m pretty convinced I’m stuck where I’m at - I don’t see my XP bar budge with upgrades.

Ok it's not just me I am completing so many quests from Honcho but I've got no Exp increase at all! I'm waiting for a new building to finish so I'll see if that helps boost my exp. I'll provide an update tomorrow.

ah well. looks like i'm at neither of those points right now, i've upgraded every building i can and i guess i just have to grind or give up (leaning towards the latter)

Are you sure you've upgraded everything? The upgrade option isn't available (it's greyed out) if you don't have enough building material, but once you get enough, it will be available again. I'm at 150 building materials to upgrade my Crabulator and it sucks...

Yeah it looks painfully slow for me too. I don't know if I have the attention span to keep going tbh. I've done some more upgrades but doing them is so grindy (slave driving my Neopets to collect resources) and I have to work during the week haha.

Progressing in the main plot and making / placing advanced decorations helps a lot! I was able to "speedrun" a level by just making a lot of decorations, including the ones that took several ingredients, and placing them.

This has happened to me SO many times now it's ridiculous, but my resource won't finish gathering (it'll act like I never started it), BUT my tool will be used up. I'm super freaking annoyed right now.

So, I just got this avy in my NM
Is this is the Avy everyone's been getting? Or there's another one for Island Builders?

Yup, this is the one! It's a different size than the other avatars, which makes it look weird on the Neoboards.

OK update from yesterday, it appears my EXP has finally caught up on it's progress bar. It jumped significantly. My guess is it was a glitch during the AC event as that thing did not move at all. Now I am over half way to level 11. So here we gooooooo!

Congrats @(you need an account to see links) on getting the avatar! Nice to see they are still releasing it!

I *just* got to level 11! I'm convinced now that upgrading the same building gives the most exp (even if grinding is painful).

Wow the size difference is insane. I've not seen it on the boards, but on a profile, just pulling the image link from the neobard preference gave me this:

I'm scrolling boards to see if I can find it in the wild for a comparison there as well.
