alright, thank you all for the wealth of the replies!

After you lock traverse town, are there any good ocassions where you can get like ten or more levels? I just don't want to lock it and then be screwed wishing I would have got more levels. Right now I am at the second part of tranverse town and I am lvl 30. I realize that I am way above the recommended level, but I suck at games. When I say I suck, I mean it.

Thanks,
