Exiled Kingdoms doesn't use a class system, but loose terms have been created by players to describe certain builds.
Arcane Knight is used to describe mages built around the skills Arcane Blade or Vampiric Blade.
Directly required quests:
1: The four mage tower quests are required to gain access to the Icemyst.
A: An Easy Job (Level 6 to start, needs 2 merples to complete).
B: Important Research (Level 7 to start, 3 living ice chunks to complete)
C: Stopping Prejudice
D: Outstanding Apprentice
2: Cold Trail for the skill trainer to teach Arcane Blade / Vampiric Blade.
3: Not triggering or getting a favorable resolution to A Mad Wizard.
Required Traits:
4: STR 3
Given the above, the hardest parts about the above to-do list is retrieving the ring for Outstanding Apprentice as it's way in the back of a troll filled cave, and retrieving the books for Stopping Prejudice as it requires fighting a few touch enemies (less if you have INT 4 to use teleport to skip most of the dungeon and the guardian fight).
So in theory, one could invest into STR 3 / INT 4 really early, and struggle a bit, and with skill / luck / tons of out-of-game knowledge, get an Arcane weapon skill at Level 7, but it's a bit much.
Building a solid mage build and working through the above quests might result an more natural achievement at level 10 or 12. One can always re-set skill points to change to a melee mage.
Getting Fire Mastery (PERS 3, Lessor Summon 2) will help a lot.
Getting the better gear, etc from progressing the game will help a lot, too.

Though unseemly, remember it's not impossible to back up your save file to the cloud and/or storage device.
Now you kinda know how some, not all but some, do it.

Sorry for that. It's based on "trophy score", and "trophies" are certain tasks done by you (posting messages, being liked, there's some of them).
Now I have changed that to number of posts written on forum. Time can't be a factor. It can, if it's done through "trophies", but it could be complicated, and also, for example, someone can be on a forum for years, but not active, etc.
Anyway, now it's number of posts.

I dislike a lot of the ironman leaderboard because to often it's people using altered games, or save back-ups to get around the perma-death.
A few got caught because they had exact same characters going live at the same time (they used the same back-up file, down to the exact equipment, inventory, gold, xp, and map explored area with exact same date).
So play on hard. It's the same game.
