I hit 70 this past weekend and found that I had this new Daily quest...The World Quest where we travel from point a to point b trading books...

I just wanted to say thanks to PWI for giving people at my level or higher free EXP. Thats the easiest EXP ever.

Thanks b:victory

    Not when you're watching hockey or playing with your kids.

    The great thing about it is you can do it all day piece by piece.

    Free EXP FTW b:thanks

    note: I can totally see it boring if you are sitting there doing nothing else but you can see it that it is designed so you can multi-task in RL and still get free exp in the game.

    Hahaha...I do laundry, clean house, watch tv, play with the kids, help them with homework, etc while doin WQ. Its great, I can get alot of things accomplished IRL and still get exp on the game..lmao. I agree that if you are sitting there doing nothing else it can be VERY boring. If I have nothing else to do around the house while doing WQ, it gives me a chance to actually sit an chat with faction mates. b:chuckle Its not easy to chat while trying to stay alive..lol

    I don't do WQ anymore. At level 70 - 75 it is well worth it (having a guild or few friends to talk to helps), but by level 80, taking a boring 1 - 3 hours (depending on your aerogear) for 100K EXP is not really worth it. If you can't spend at least an hour playing PWI (or longer by leaving it flying with autopath while you do other things) than it'll take up almost all or more than all your time.

    BH is much more worth it (150K or more in about 10 - 30 fun minutes), but finding a BH69 or higher squad can take ages too. Still, if you're a very active PWI player, BH is a real treat.

    But minimizing PWI while autopathing sometimes crashes it even with the graphic settings set lower. Also I need to use other resource-hungry applications on this computer. I could use my laptop instead, but my mule is busy selling/buying goods at the moment, and some items take days to sell.

    All depends how you weigh the cost of the CS quest over the cost of nothing for the WQ.

    I can do my WQ daily and have it not affect my in-game play since I do my WQ only when I can't sit down for more than a few seconds at a time.

    When I am done my WQ am I usually able to sit done and do my BH and other side things.

    You could try setting it in window mode. That way, it's not minimized, which will prevent those annoying random crashes. Plus you can check in a whole lot easier should it become needed for whatever reason.

    I do a mixture of both. For relatively long distances and cheap teleports, I teleport.

    That doesn't solve the resource issue. I only have 1 GB of RAM. Before you say something like "upgrade it", don't. b:shutup Buying some new RAM isn't really worth it just for PWI so I can level slightly faster. I really need to focus on my work and other things and let PWI go.

    I hate WQ. And depending on my moon I either Tele the whole thing or if I with a friend I might carry her around from point to point and converse.

    When I hit 70 I used to like it and watched this and that and did laundry..now...i just need to get it done ASAP. I am usually a day behind too...so blah...

    I just do each World Quest leg if I happen to be in that region of the map.

    I'm just not that bothered about getting it done on a daily basis.

    Because of this, it can take me days, even weeks to get them done.

    I just look upon it as an added bonus of exp and spirit rather than something to count on.

    As for teleporting, well, as other posters have said, that'll get expensive very quickly. However it must be pretty sweet if you're a member of the dominant faction and get free teleports to their controlled lands then WQ would be pretty quick and painless.

    Not quite, using the free faction Tele uses your "town portal" skill, which takes like forever (actually I think its 60 minutes) to recharge. So no you cant use the free tele to do a whole WQ b:victory

    I'm on the same boat as the OP, I got 70 this weekend.

    I can see why people might get bored of doing WQ, but you can't deny how easy the exp is. It doesnt even take that long. Sure at higher lvls the exp isn't as great as it was at 7x, but this is how I think of it, "Exp is Exp".

    I spend 80k or so to teleport through in 15 mins.
    Keep in mind that time is money, I can grind about 500k / hour so 80k to save an hour of time is good sense.

    Free if you fly only (which I tend to do most of the time) and only a waste of time if you sit there not doing anything while flying. I tend to play other games, surf the net, chat or go AFK for various reasons in the meantime. I'm known to procrastinate a lot anyways... so it gives me a reason to procrastinate/be lazy.

    It does get old (especially 5-17), I gotta admit. But that 200k exp/day is still pretty nice for me. Stacks with BH, and CS when I feel like it.

    I didn't realise there were restrictions on free teleporting to faction controlled lands. Thanks for the correction and yes, cooldown of Town Portal is 60 minutes.
