lvling from 80-90

Depends. If you're in a solid faction with a heavy Gamma base, you can get to 85 in a week or two. After that, count on at least a month with dailies and grinding from 85 to 90.

I spend about 2hr/night actively playing + dailies and it took me about 1 week to go from 80-81 and about 2 weeks to go from 81-82 (but that's because I skipped out on BHs for a few days running, and helped a bunch of people.) I should ding tonight when i turn in my CS.

I'm expecting about 2 weeks or so per level from here until 87....

Yep 80-85 is a breeze if you do rebirth gammas. Past that, do your quests and your dailies. I've heard of people grabbing good squads for frost and popping 2x scrolls in some of the areas. Hmmm, and I just did CoA event and gained 2-3% from the orbs. Cube is probably the best bet, you gain 400k xp when completing it...although it takes some money and luck to, it's worth it in the end. Some people just run through and grab robber cards to make money.



Anything else I missed?

IMO after 85 you are better off running FF than the cube, more xp than the cube if you use eso's after the 3rd boss, it costs less to run FF (ofc the cube has more chance to make you money), with a good squad only takes 2-3 hours AND the major point, can be run more than once per day unlike the cube

I've seen people do 81-85 in a week or maybe 10 days in rebirth. I also saw someone do 92 in a day in frost.

If you're dumb like me and don't do rebirth or cube (cube from sheer stupidity on my end, rebirth because I could never find squads willing to take an inexperienced veno), it will take you awhile. I hit 80 the day BH went in so it ended up being fairly easy to track. Aug 5th-Oct 5th to go from 80 to 90, about a level every 6 days. That was doing 1-2 BH a day, WQ, and CS plus grinding for around 6 hours a day with envoys/wanted in there too. Also, I did a couple of frost runs during double exp weekends.

If I had it to do over, I would farm TT for 3 hours a day to make coin, use that coin to pay for BH/WQ teleports/CS and gamma orders (if I could get a gamma squad), and use the duty badge on cube. Grinding time beyond that would be spent in frost with eso's. You could probably do 80-90 in a week with enough playtime and spending it in the right spots.

Nothing says you can't do both when time isn't a factor.

For the old pple who did not have gamma and are still heavy levelers, 80-90 took about 2 or 2.5 weeks with CS, WQ, small bit of zhenning (optional), and some justice quests, which is still possible.

I need to learn to grind like that. I can only do 180 kills an hour when working at it. At 460 exp per that's 103500 exp/hour (taking mob bonuses into account for additional exp). Throw in an envoy and it's 147500, less for 80-89 but taking that rate, and considering 80-89 is 63553822 total exp, at 12 hours a day, taking out 30 minutes for CS/WQ (assuming you teleport for it) and another 60 minutes in travel time getting new envoys during the day, that's 10.5 hours of grind... 1475000 exp a day, accounting for WQ/CS exp in there each day I'm coming up with 34 days. 2 weeks would mean 4539558 exp a day. How did you manage to pull that off?

Sometimes i think it was actually faster than the Rebirth pple just because you knew how to get a constant exp and where to grind faster as oppose to the new pple who rebirthed all the way and then got dumped out into the open after 86 still unable to participate in a delta till 90+. When RB becomes your sole world, you become inadequate in knowledge about good exp spots, except for things you hear second hand. Especially for BMs who learn how to mass grind, if you are good, its better than RB cause everything is done on your time without having to wait for pple.

We are sisters on different servers...So much a like b:cute


Total PWI time to 100 ----> 8 months (60-80 was the slowest for me)

PS --> I never did GV till lvl 90 (aside from trying one Rebirth Alpha and failed)

@ Hamsta ----> Ummm...

As a cleric even without any grinding you can make over a mil exp a day just from daily quests (cs,wq,bh*2 and cube), plus as a cleric its pretty easy to get bh69 squads. If you could do all that and do rebirth gamma, you would hit 86 very fast.

all i know is going from 88-89 takes forever i want my fairy b:cryb:cry
