Anyone who wants to be a dreadnought must begin as a fighter, weak and completely different with the mighty dreadnought, equip your character with heavy armor and step the way of being a Dreadnought! Gather mobs as much as you can and slay them with your AOE skills, soon you hit lvl20, and becomes a warrior.This is where you will start becoming more like a Dread. You will be getting heavy armor/pole master, making exping easier. My choice is a Brigandine suit with a Glaive and top jewels. You'll also get a few new skills you can use while polling: Wild Sweep, War Cry, and Vicious Stance. Lineage 2 gold players suggest using Wild Sweep and War Cry as much as possible, Vicious Stance, not so much. It would be fine to exp outside Dion till you reach about level 30 or 32.When you hit lvl30, train in Ant's Nest or The Bee Hive with your first weakness detection skill, which will greatly increase your damage due to insects. Train on insects until you hit lvl40.Getting new weapons, armors and skills, you are a step close to dreadnought now.
