Thats not bad. Whats the hurry anyway? Leveling isn't a technique... its a bad habit.


Enjoying yourself is the fastest way to level.

post biznatch BAF, i get 30k/10 min... the best thing was that... thats the average xp.. not the lucky max xp...


so i get around 180k/hour =)... now that biznatch is gone i think that number goes down by quite a bit... i used to do it with 2 gurrecks (and they had good regen rate)... so with a lil play play.. and maybe food food, i'm set...


nowadays u gotta do nyms (which hits a lot harder than biz.. ), u gotta get high lvl CH....(sludge or grand wrix is good) and u gotta have master medic and TONS of stim Ds (money money money) to get 50-70% of the xp rate... (downtime cause nyms are not as common adn doesn't spawn as often.. healing your pet takes a long time... the money u need for the stims = running unnecessary missions.... etc etc etc etc


and if u already have another side prof.. then u're stuck with a 2k hp non-ch pet... that will oftentimes die in a battle =) (better get it now before they make it so that pet without transfer can't be transfered.... being tested in TC)


so try to figure out another exploit (quick ways to lvl).. or as the ^ guy said... enjoy the game =)

Get in a group with a medic. You'll suck up half the exp due to outdamaging all the wimpy ranged users. We benefit from a group like no one else!

Nymmmmmmmmssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!


I got over 700k exp today in about 5 hours from those. I dare say that's as good as it gets solo, well kind of solo. I had a pet Grand Wrix, and I just baited it against all the Nyms while I stood in the back and zerkedthem to death. Not a super fast process, but I did manage to hit master today because of that 700k.

Sad to see other heavy swordsmen uses pets for tanking. I wish we'd get a significat increase in defense so we could tank well instead of being paper tanks.

Not that I can't tank red con 11k life Elite Guards, it's just that it takes longer to kill one if I tank for myself, because I'll have to heal myself a couple of times during each fight, and I would kill his ass unless he kills my mind first. The pets reduce the downtime between each fight, therefore I get more exp in general.

I need to find a good balance of downtime/XP. I just hope the knockdown immunity doesn't count towards mobs since I haven't been able to play since that patch went up. My -almost- master brawler tricks were getting me my 2handed XP. 1-haned Dizzy and sweep on a Nym and pratical use of styles and reapplication of dizzy kept me killing them solo (and I have zero medic skills).


Hope my slow leveling techs isn't going to be nerfed.

Shallow Tortons on Rori, 1200 XP and 3 hits using headhit 2. Very little downtime. Also, borgle cave on Rori. 3 bloodthirsty borgles at once using spin attack 1, 2800 XP at a time. Also, nice to use a gualama lair. They spawn a ridiculous amount and gulamas on up to dappled and mavericks give 400-800 and can be 1-2 hit with mind hit 2.
