    What 2 Days playing can get you....

    Well i admit that last week was rather amusing, even though i spent 2 days in Lancaster, i've managed to take a Troll warrior from level 1 to 29 in 2 Days play time. I'm wondering how much further i could get leveling to minimise how long it would take to get to 60 at this pace. Cosmos was recording stats on XP per hour and i've been running at around the 25000xp per hour, meaning that i'm just starting to hit 2hrs per level.

    This has been done since i started the character at the start of the month. And those 48hrs has meant i've spent a fair few hours the past two weekends playing. But damn i've enjoyed it. But i have to admit i'm finding it strange that people are finding it that i've played silly amounts more than others.

    This is simply not the case. I've now got just over 10Days 8 hours play time on all my characters, significantly less than Velan's 14days (i think) and some of the other high level characters.

    But i have to say damn warriors are easy to play, and while people might wonder why i post things like this. Its to explain the challenges i like to set myself

    However i think 3 characters will do for the moment and maybe an early night is in order

    Started a druid on another server where my friend is playing at the weekend and managed to hit level 10 after about 4 hours playing. A combination of it being my second character and therefore knowing how to "play the game" as well as druids being far easier to solo and level up compared to priests has meant rapid progress. Have to say I've enjoyed having another character.

    I don't understand how people lvl up so quickly, is it just grinding?

    as human pally, rouge, warrior or warlock i can reach lvl 8 in 1hour 30min - if only it was that easy from there onwards... thats just doing quests.

    At level 40 I had a played time of 7 days and 30mins, about the same at the first guy to get level 60 in beta had when he reached level 60 i think

    Technically, Isadrel is my 2nd Character, I started her after getting stuck on a couple of quests with Balkron, now Isadrel is Level 22 and Balkron is umm level 7

    I think druid's must be the easiest starting char, IMO. They can do it all! OK, they're not the best at tanking, they're not the best healers and they don't hit the hardest or the swiftest, but no other char can do all of the above! They're truly awesome IMO.

    If cars had followed the same developmental path as computers, a Rolls Royce would cost £60, get a million miles per gallon and explode once a year, killing everyone inside.

    Yeah, Driuds are the all rounders, they can pretty much do it all, just not as well as the specialised classes but this does mean the can switch between different forms depending on the situation which is very helpfull.

    Yep tis bad, I have chalked up 13 days playing time at lvl 44, could have lvled faster but Im trying to do the majority of the quests available in each area. Luckily for me I had a holiday from work which coincided with the games release, now im back at work I think my progress will probably slow alot as I have to make time for family stuff aswell in the evenings

    Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
    Enwrought with golden and silver light,
    The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
    Of night and light and the half-light,
    I would spread the cloths under your feet:
    But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
    I have spread my dreams under your feet;
    Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams.
