stuck with sebastius quest

The offline game was the original game and is different from the MMORPG!

I agree that there is a lack of equipment for mid-level characters. If you haven't already done so, you can go to the Blitzbee Island Shop and pick up some Earth Plate and Swamp Shields. It is possible to get to the shop without spawning any blitzbees.

Aside from that, all I can counsel is patience. If you are strong enough to take on vampires and blue knights, you can level up pretty quickly at level 30.

Never been there: where is this place located? Is it in the MMORPG only or in the RPG too?
Anyway, without equipment it is just impossible to level up characters strong enough to face monsters, relying only on that +2 skill bonus per level.

Sorry for double posting: found it, it is in the very south-western corner of the map.
It is a true trap because those powerful bees (or whatever) don't drop money and the costs for the new equipment are outrageous. How am I supposed to have such a sum of money? I can barely afford one shield or one helm while I need to equip my whole party, and it would still be not a match for my foes!

The best place to get money for the purchase of those items is the dungeon in 3.-2 with the possessed corpses. They drop earth robes with a 25% chance that you can sell at the walled city for 37K each. Once again, you have to be patient, but with the expanded backpack, you can collect quite a few of them before you have to leave to sell. This is also a decent place to grind for leveling up since they give you 5K XP per party member. That's what I did.

I have better things to do in life than to waste my time with such a broken game, characterized by a terrible game balance, sorry.
But thank you for your hints.

If you're only level 30, I know you haven't done every quest, as many have level requirements.

I do share some of your thoughts about the difficulty of the game when it comes to levelling up.. it must be horrific in the rpg (I don't play it), but in the mmo its not such an issue as you can socialise as you grind.

I'm sorry if you're unhappy with the game now, but, it does sound like you did get quite a bit of play out of it, maybe your money's worth. Hopefully, the next update will be enjoyable for you.

Well, I had fun at the earliest levels, when the game was still affordable.
Consider that now EACH of my party members needs 590.000 XPs to level up, and that the strongest enemy that I can face and kill (but just because I have the mage) is the blue knight. Each of them gives me 34.200 XPs, which means that I have to kill a bit more than 86 of them to level up, which means that I can handle from 6 to 8 per time with a moderate risk to have one of my dummy henchmen killed in battle (which means reloading again and again).
So, it means to repeat the luring process from 14 to 10 times just for ONE level that changes nothing since there is no affordable nor available equipment around.
If I try with vampires, I need to kill more than 39 just for one level, while I can face one or two per time, consuming A LOT of gold in healing and mana potions. It means repeating a tedious process from 20 to 40 times.
It is not possible, nor funny but I want to play an RPG, not a MMORPG. So I can't but think that it is a shame, because the game has a potential, but just porting the game to off-line version doesn't work.
