This is a general question about leveling. I messed up my first level 60's ability score. and i'm looking to re-roll and power level to 60. What is the best way to do this? I was thinking maybe leveling up through the foundry? is this possible and how long would it take me. Any advise on this would be hugely appreciated!
also which class is fastest I don't mind playing Rogue again.
They already fixed the foundry exploits, I don't think that would be beneficial a whole heck of a lot.
I'd say right now the fastest way of lvling up is hitting lvl 10, then PvPing your way to lvl 60. Gain half a level every match, win or lose. So, either way you look at it, it's quick exp.

PvP while doing Leadership Profession. Plus side is you can use that Glory you saved up to buy equipment, oh joy.

PVP is easily the fastest.
Have a foundry quest you want tested? Let me know on the forums or in-game. Username is @verranicus1.
Yep, PVP is probably the only power level way now, but it will not be quick.
If you vs an AFK bot team, the game ends in 6minutes, if not it can last 15-20mins, for 1/4 to 1/5 of a level.
With Foundry being destroyed by Exploits, and the "relaxed fix" pretty much kills any idea of using foundry to help level.
Foundry has been reduced to a bed time story telling, and the forced daily that multiplies as you get higher in level.
At level 60 you have to do Foundry 4 times.. to get the 6k or 8k AD.. yay.. for 1 hour of grinding that out.. you get some AD that could possibly buy you 1 Town teleport scroll.
A Foundry needs to be a minimum of 15minutes long to qualify for a daily.. whats 15mins x4 ? (offtrack yes i am)
You can run quests, and grind mobs again.. but the exp from the average mob is pretty low.
They mobs also lose a big chunk of exp after you are 1 level higher than them.
The loot is also kinda bad, i think i found 2 blues from 1-60 off the mobs in zones.. come to think of it i think one of those blues was from a dungeon.
PvP rewards need to be time based. It makes no sense to gain 5x more xp and glory in an afk or one sided match, than to have a legit game that drags on forever, makes no sense at all.
Foundry limits really need to be relaxed. Just make it so it's limited to a certain amount of mobs in a window of time. Like killing over 10 mobs in a 10 second window stops xp for 1 min or something.
Also Skirmishes and Dungeons need to give like x5 the XP they currently do.
Grouping up and running these things should be BY FAR the best XP.
Sigh, until then, I'll just be slogging my way through the same **** quests on my alt/s. =[
Leveling is fastest by questing on a lvl3 mount by far. There are a few quests that take longer, but if you have the reflexes and the brain to take the straightest routes and find the collectibles without pulling aggro, and the optimal build for leveling, questing wins. I got my CW to 60 in 2 days, GWF took 3.
There's even a certain Foundry quest that yields more XP than a PvP match, and takes only 10-13 minutes to do. But I'll keep that one a secret since it was shared by a friend.

So you need to buy a Zen mount to be able to level a character faster with questing?
-Sounds very free to play.
How in the hell did you level 2 character to 60 in a week.. did you sleep all weekend after that or something?
-Foundry exploit i assume?
Foundry EXP exploit that you dont want the Devs finding out about to nerf Foundry even harder?
-So this is how you leveled 2 characters to 60 in a week.

warpet could you tell me more about the 1.6k exp project?
I messed up my first level 60's ability score. and i'm looking to re-roll and power level to 60.
Just save up the AD and transfer to zen, respec. Much faster than re-leveling. 600 zen for a token, that's not much in AD at all. Baffled why you think starting over from scratch just for ability scores is the better idea.
Questing is fast as they fixed the foundry exploits, especially if you know where to go and what to do, plus you get gear.

join afk pvp party- 3 bars in 5min. Do not fight because its a waste of time and you get the same amount of exp even when you lose

Get a friend and level with him/her by doing quests. going from quest to quest takes you about a week. I heard from someone in zone that it took him 3 days to get to lv 60. but I dont know if thats pre-nerf or not.
