In wizard101 i've reached lvl 82 and I had to do some side quests if I didn't want to fall behind on levels and stuff
I decided to play Pirate101 and at the moment lvl 4

My main question is that
To get to lvl 65 which I think is the cap
Do you need to do side quests at all? or is the main story quest all you need from 1~65
I don't want to leave side quests behind like I did on wizard101 if i'm gonna fall behind on levels
It was a pain to go back to dragonspyre mooshu etc. just to hit lvl 48 so I can go to celestia

thanks for answers

see you in the game :)

Good questions, Salty Duncan and welcome to the message boards! No, you certainly don't need to do side quests to do the main story line, but it is very advisable to do so. Not only do side quests give you extra experience, some give you ( or unlock ) companions they may give training points or nautical experience. Please consider doing side quests, they will help you. Plus I strongly encourage you to do those companion promotion quests as soon as you get them, some players neglect this and soon find that the story has progressed too far for them to do a promo and then they must wait to complete it.
