2. Leveling with character A will accumulate the same amount of EXP gained to character B.
3. Log into character B, open the "Tag Characters" window, and press the "Get EXP" button to claim the EXP gained by character A.
( You can also level with character B and claim EXP gains on character A. )

Once you've tagged two characters, you can also enable them to share the same gear. This feature is known as "Item Copy."

The Great Ocean
Also, we have moved the barter-related quests that were previously available at Oquilla's Eye to Iliya Island, and we have added additional barter-related quests on Iliya Island. As a result, combat-related quests with ocean monsters will be centered around Oquilla's Eye, while barter-related quests will be centered around Iliya Island. We have also added supply transport quests between Iliya Island and Oquilla's Eye, allowing for more streamlined routes. The newly added barter quests on Iliya Island can be accepted and completed simultaneously, providing a solid foundation for novice captains starting their bartering journey to easily level up and grow.
We have also made changes to the [Exploration] quests that could be accepted through exploration during bartering. Some quests were interrupting the flow of bartering and causing inconvenience, so we removed those quests and changed them to barter-related quests, allowing for a smoother completion of quests while maintaining the flow. We hope that captains who intentionally left some [Exploration] quests incomplete can now comfortably complete the quests and enjoy the game. We will continue to make efforts to ensure that the journey of captains sailing into the ocean is more enjoyable. Thank you.
