Don't get me wrong, I love this game, but this new expansion "content" is just downright mindbogglingly BORING!
Seriously, Do 16 quests (of which you can only take 4 at a time) and then do them all over again....over and over and over again....for 4 solid adventure zones, and 10 adventure levels. It gets old after the first or second time you have to repeat them and you have to do this through 4 zones!!!!!
Come on Cryptic I know you guys can do better than that. Look at STO, you guys did great with the content expansion there with Delta Rising, lots of different quests to do, and not so much rinse and repeat. Where was that when i comes to this game?????

^ This-ish. I mean they kicked up some dungeons to 11 but I don't have enough time to invest in that. Old campaigns are completed...so I'm at 70 and just helping random people clear Spinward for mainhands.
In M5 I logged in to pray and play some PvP matches to complete dailies because I had gear, pet, completed campaigns etc. In M6 I leveled my char up to 70, instantly bought everything I need and now I only log in to pray and play some PvP matches to complete dailies because I have gear, pet, mount, completed campaigns etc. It took me less then a week to "enjoy" new content. Absolute record of **** module.
Oh, my plan for that is to take my alts through those 16 * X quests... :^D
There are multiple quests in each zone. Over 10 I think. I don't think I did more than twice for any quest. You don't have to pick the first quest in the list. I checked them one by one and not do that one I did already (unless I want to do that).
May be I am moving slower than "normal". My GWF is already level 67 and he has just finished the first area of the 3rd zone (the pit).
So you bought everything rather than run dungeons and slowly gear up, and now you're complaining that there's nothing to do? Hmmm. You probably slotted azures in your utility slots so you could hit 70 faster, and run out of things to do even faster, eh?
Well, it sounds like you might be primarily a pvp player, in which case you pre-farmed your pvp currency. Again, a choice of your making.
I'm a DC Anointed Champ, from level 63-70 zone I DO Vigilance Quests (anything else here? NOPE) 5 here 11 there 4 here,
and this also cos i hit 60 a week ago
So you suggest me to keep millions of AD not spent just to gimp myself? This advice is on par with "get naked if you want a challenge". I slotted everything to lvl faster because it was THE WORST EXPERIENCE IN ANY MMO I'VE EVER PLAYED. And now, at lvl 70, I just bought everything because there is no way to farm pants and shirt, 2 slot jewelry and RP items as long as dragon hoards stop working after a few minutes.
This game gives zero rewards for your efforts. If you wanna be rewarded - spend money. I have everything I need, anything better then I have now costs hundreds of millions which I cannot afford or don't even want to strive my goal for as it takes years to achieve. So I sit with all I have and do PvP, because all the content remained the same since M5.
...you forgot to rinse between repeats.
Also the zones themselves are only rinse, repaint, repeat (Apart from Spiward Rise, and that at least is some sweet eye candy). Even the monsters are rinse, repaint, repeat. Oh, the lairs and side mission dungeans are rinse, repaint, repeat, too.
Now what's good for Cryptic should be good enough for you, too, no?
On the bright side: No. Even without XP boosts, three zones are normally sufficient. When you ding the 67 you can go to Spinward rise, the reds there are Lvl 68, so no "2-Lvl-delta"-cliff. And for the rewards you only have to finish the last quest there (ArtiWeapon) and reach lvl 70 (ArtiOffHand). You can even get the first levels in other Lvl 5x areas like Rothé Valley, Hotenow, or Whispercaves - if you didn't do those on that char before that even does the trick as well faster as with higher entertainment value, and without constant thunder rumble grating on your nerves...
I havent tried Fiery Pit yet, but RecRock was even more tedious and much worse than drowned Shore. Meh. "Kill 20 of X" - where 5 X are on the map at any given time.
Have fun grinding the RP to unlock the ArtiGear's second enchantment slot again, but this is probably better done in one of the campaign zones - seems more high quality enchanting stuff to find there.
