What am I doing wrong?

[scotty1345]

I have a dilemma. I keep buying items from Arte and tipping him, and I do it almost every day, but I am not on level 7 yet! Is there something I'm doing wrong, or is there some way for me to fix it? All tips and tricks are appreciated!
Thanks!

Are you tipping him 100? Try that, i think that you should keep doing that, because to get to level 7, you need to do a lot :bas:

Ahh the old days, just tip him the highest money possible, buy RARES not just regular items and Curio shop only items. I am already there and it is really cool. Good luck!

yes i agree - only tip 100 - if you give him less he will grumble at you -
You don't really have to keep buying stuff - Just do it before you gem hunt

I've found that I pass levels quicker by tipping him 100 Kinzcash before I complete the Gem Hunt. I guess maybe it works better that way because then you aren't using the money that you obtained by selling your gems? Also, it's good to buy rares, but if you just by a more expensive regular item at least once a day, you can pass levels faster. I hope this helps you out a little bit! Good luck!

I had heard that tipping was a good thing to do to get Arte to like you and to raise your level, but now he doesn't acknowledge a tip of any kind anymore. Ever since he got his teeth, he won't say thanks or anything. Does he care anymore?

I would buy rare items and maybe something he has on a lower price from the w shop. I have tipped him no more than twice on 2 accounts (10kc) and got to level 7 in a very few months, so just keep buying from him.

Please read Justin's Primer, which is the most reliable source of information on this subject:

There are several threads already on this subject, so I will close this one.

There are many ways of reaching Level 7, just remember, do either or both of:

1-Tip Arte 50 to 100 kc daily
2-Buy items from him.

Good luck in your quest!
