1. Elemental weapons are the best if not pvp weapon.
2.You should skip those 2 weapons since you can just pick up a weapon or use your level 40 elemental weapon and enchant it.(Bone weapon PvE)
3. back packs take time to farm depending on what you want, Mutisha cape, Signus boost backpack,Rare/hero bone cape etc. Recomend buying things for cheap.
4. leveling is still slow but it is faster on fridays-sundays(exp boost.
If you are planning on getting to level 60, your best bet would be the signus boost backpack along with the elemental weapon.
If you are planning to sit around 70, you should use either elemental or zauharant weapon with hero paris wings.
If you plan on being a big boy at 81+, you would have to use 6 or 7 POS set gear along with an elemental elga weapon.(POS weapon PvE)
If you want to PvE then just roll with the non elemental weapons Bone weapon,Zauharant, POS weapon.
POS= Protector of stars.
