Pure PvP and Scenario Repeatable Quest LevelingFollow

oh man what noobs you and your friend must be.

No they don't, but luckily you can fly to the different cities each time. Honestly though i wouldn't choose to do it that way, you'll end up waiting around alot. I really suggest doing pqs at the very least to make time not stand still

And its a really good way of leveling if you plan on being in your own 2 person party during the scenarios. I did this on my Sorc with a Zealot and we were able to get 12k xp in T1 and 22k xp in T2...that's without even including the repeatable quests. I don't think PVEing could top that sort of xp, especially with 8-10 minute games.

20k xp in T2, even in a ten minute game (which MT usually isn't) that's 2k xp per minute. And the que pops are fairly fast even during the off hours. A quest in T2 gives about 3k xp on average..but takes like 10 minutes to complete. Yeah..idk.


You have to be REALLY good at killing people to make this work though. (Very High Int) Otherwise you'll most likely end up getting less xp then the rest of the group and it's completely pointless.

The next person who says "toon" is getting pistol whipped.

Well I don't believe it's leeching if you're doing most of the work. I do agree that it's wrong to just join a scenario and stand around and do nothing, because I've seen people who have done that and gotten MORE XP THAN ME while I'm fighting the whole match.

Yeah that's just wrong. But those people generally stay in the main group and just stand around in the far back, or even worse afk.

You get xp based on how much damage you do to a target, or how much damage the person you are healing does to a target...all when the target dies.

So if you haven't tried it yet, it's actually very difficult to out dps a whole group of people just alone, (which is exactly why it's good to have a healer partnered with you) and the only way you can end up getting more xp than the group is if you do out dps the entire group or atleast kill more people. This takes a lot of effort (I guess unless you're a bright wizard?) and I believe if the person is good enough to pull it off then they deserve the extra XP they get. It's a challenge in itself, and for me it makes the game more exciting..constantly trying to outplay everyone else in my scenario.

So no, I disagree, I think those who can do it should because it makes the game more fun and they deserve the xp because if they are actually beating their team then they are putting in more effort than the rest of the team most likely. (Apparently unless you're a bright wizard, but I wouldn't know since I've never played one).

Also generally a good dps/healer partner combo can lead the entire scenario to victory..so they are helping everyone out not just themselves. Atleast let them keep the spoils ;)

Tanks are important to every group. But they don't deal a lot of damage and are mostly single target based. Therefore, they rely off from their TEAM to get them xp and renown. Splitting yourself apart from the group because you deserve the extra xp (even when it steals from others) and not sharing the xp is leeching. When you stand in the back of the group that you are not part of shooting fireballs or whatever, you are leeching. You are using the tanks and other classes to support your ability to stand in the back, safely, and fire away.

Sharing the xp with those tanks is only decency at best.

Typically I do PvE and PQ in between the RvR sceneroies. I like doing the RvR, but I also recognize that you go to do something while wiating for the queue.

3 Things.

Firstly, who says the tank can't get in a 2-3 person group himself with some friends and do THE EXACT SAME THING. Or just join the Party THEY are in..since clearly they are doing a better job then the others in the scenario if this is actually a problem.

Secondly, I've seen Chosen and Black Orcs be on top of DPS chart before in both T1 and T2, haven't progressed passed that yet but I would imagine one built to damage can there too..it's just probably quite a bit more difficult. They have the advantage of staying alive much longer and therefore having the opportunity to kill more people, unlike many dps classes who drop very fast when actually under attack.

Thirdly, Why the hell would I stand in the back of the "Main Group" if I have a healer with me? That's quite possibly the stupidest thing you can do, then you end up sharing XP with the others in the group whether you want to or not because they TOO are doing DMG to the targets. @#%^ that, if you have a healer with you the best thing to do is go fight in an area where there's less team mates or no "Main Group" and just pick off any enemy players that come by. Easily done and gives TONS more XP then fighting people with the group.

So if your biggest concern was the duo "Stealing" your exp then this shouldn't even be a problem for you because if they are smart they most likely won't be fighting around where you are anyways. And if they AREN'T smart then most likely they will be getting LESS Xp than you anyways so there's no reason to complain about it. Hell, if your in the "Main Group" attacking someone with your entire group, and one person is attacking that same target too that's not in it, most likely you'll get more XP than him because your group did more DMG. Like I said, it's harder to out damage an entire group than you might think. So they are better off fighting solo targets. And why on earth would you deserve exp for something he killed practically all by himself without your help at all??
