Cant answer all your questions as Im new too but will handle the ones I know. Ive not come across quests to lvl up after 85, its pretty much been all grinding on monsters. There is a line you get from the Adventures guild for daily repeatable quests, The xp from them is very meh but you get like 500000 or so adena from each from the ones in Altar of Evil / Bloody Swamp. That will help keep you swimming in R shot at least. No clue how to make the kind of adena I see items being auctioned for. The R shot recipie is sold in blacksmithing area in Aden if I remember correctly. Dont think have to be a dwarf to use it but not 100% positive since I play one. Hopefully more knowledgeable people can come answer your questions better

I had gotten my char to lvl 87/86 before the last update and not played since coz went on vacation. Does any of it apply to me or do I just grind monsters for levels from here out (and if so wheres a good spot for different lvls?)

yes realized my mistake. thanks though

Been reading about dwarves online and want to become a slayer. When created character and looked at class path that is not listed. What am I not understanding?
