Can u actuly power Lvl in this game?Follow

[b][/b]Umm i was wnder because i wanna know if its worth it to make a pllay , warror , or a healer to make cash from powerleveling people? Because that i think is the best way to start the game pl people so they eill pl u when u make a new char see???

I suppose you could, but I don't see it being all that effective. Would still be quicker to do the quests and get experience that way.


Powerleveling is bad. If you powerlevel someone they don't learn how to use their class properly and are a hindrance to a group.

I experimented with powerleveling in beta. I had a 22 druid but found the following issues:

1) Buffs are all level limited. You must cast your baby buffs on low level characters removing the "power" from "power levelling"
2) You can't "give" experience to other characters. In, say Everquest, I had ways to significantly increase your DPS and/or do all the damage and give you the exp.
3) You can do the quests (kill this, loot that) but what happens is that you complete difficult quests but no longer gain enough experience to be meaningful. In the end, you've completed level 10-15 quests at level 5 and suddenly, when by yourself, you're a level 6 who has only level 16+ quests available.

While I certainly like the fact that you can't powerlevel, it is dissappointing that when my friends get the game for Christmas.. I'm not going to be able to help them very much.

Powerleveling in WoW isn't healing someone. It's finding a spot with elite mobs 5-6 levels higher than you, and tagging them. You then have a higher level friend kill it.

I thought that you take a hit on exp if someone else helps u kill a mob, even if they arent in your group, to prevent such powerleveling. Also, the higher level they are, the bigger the hit you take. Was I completely misinformed here?

You don't go in a pty one person just attacks it tagging it. Then the high lvl person kills it. You still take a hit but not as big of one.

Its still faster if you know what quests to do though.

Here's how you powerlevel in this game, the quickest way: Do The Quests. Unlike FFXI or whatever MMORPG you were on before, killing monsters is not the way to level up, at least not early in the game. A person who goes around completing quests will level up faster than some guy killing hundreds of monsters straight through.

Quest Coloring: You notice quests come in multiple colors as to display difficulty, it also affects how much experience you're likely to gain from that quest. Yellow means 100% exp, Green around 70-80%, Gray less than 20%, Orange more than 100%, and Red around 150%. If you complete quests in the Red zone, you'll gain the most experience out of that quest. If at anytime one of your quests turn into the Green, you better finish it if you want any exp at all from it.

As for Tapping a monster then having someone else, not in the party, kill it there is a math for this. Its based on the "helping" player's level and how much damage they are doing to the monster. If the helping player does most of the damage, then your exp is cut dramatically. Safe to say if the other guy does ALL the damage after you tapped it, you get absolutely NOTHING.

Doesn't the colour of the quest represent the level at which is it to be done? And if you are too high for that quest, it will still yield the same amount of exp if a character did it while it was still challenging to them, but it will be less beneficial on a higher level player who simply breezed through the quest...

I'm pretty certain the quest xp boost is a myth....We do all our quests together but she's always 2-3 levels below so almost all the quests for her are a color grade above what they are for me (or more) but we've always gotten the same exp when the quest was completed.

I wouldn't put much stock in the strategy guide...there's a number of things in it that are no longer accurate.

If the quest XP bonus is a myth, how come when quests are grey to me they give me like, 200xp? It's fact. Try doing an elite, red quest and tell me how much XP you get off it.

You don't get as much exp from low (gray) level quests. I've tested it. On my main char I skipped a lot of quests going from level 1 to level 30ish. I did the level 1-10 quests on a level 1-10 char (doing the quests at their respective levels). I then went back to my main char who was 20 levels too high for the quests and did them for, at the most, 40 exp. If anyone's done a level 10 quest you know you get much more than 40 exp from one.

Thank you for rating this guy down, just like you do me =p.

IMO, powerlevelers ruin and destroy games, just like someone up top said (Credit given) that that person is almost as bad as an eBay-er with knowledge of how to run their class, especially a caster/healer who NEEDS to know how to play his class to keep others alive.
