Anything is Possible haha.....yeah I skipped a *cupcake* load of stuff but this was my 2nd character to 50....first one I realized I wasn't going to be content with being a female Mechari haha.

Wait, what?
 
Is there some mechanic I wouldn't know about that would make that possible?

Is there some kind of exp boost for doing quests higher level than your character? Or a penalty for doing things lower level? This would explain a lot about the leveling process that I've noticed.

			Grats!	
----
			Props on the speed leveling. May have to do this to get my last few lvls. Exploring every thing is slowing me down so much.	
----
			I haven't used any of my login reward flasks or anything, because I'm the type of person to explore literally every quest I can-- but when I end up leveling a 2nd character, I'll be sure to remember that.	
----
			
i was expecting a <15h played tbh which was done in 1 session.
Still nice OP, grats :)	
----
			
Grats dude! My brain cant handle skipping that much while leveling, so I doubt I could ever pull it off xD
 
but seriously cool

			Grats, taking the exact opposite route of leveling my new main as slowly as possible. Gives more people time to find out how awesome this game is and join me ;-)	
----
			Grats, but this is not new information. :)	
----
			Nice!! I think the current record is like 8 hours and 53 minutes.	
----
			Well done on hitting lvl 50 in less than a day but its not something that I could see myself doing as I enjoy the journey to getting to max level more than max level itself. I knew a few friends who used to be able to power through mmo's and get there characters up to max level really fast, the problem being is they were always the first to complain that they had nothing to do and were bored already.

Level 50 in under a day!
 
I remember when MMORPGs had tough, challenging content.
 
Seems WS doesn't; because any game in which a player can level from new to cap in under a day is not even remotely hardcore - no matter how much you ppl try and fool yourself it is.

I'll fire off a response, just on the off-chance some semblance of discussion can be salvaged here. Because if we're not here to talk about things, what's the entire point of a forum anyway?
 
In what MMORPG has leveling up EVER been difficult(and don't name some obscure third world F2P game please)?   The only mainstream MMO I can think of that contains some moderate difficulty and challenge is Dungeons and Dragons online, where if you don't build and play correctly, many quests can be very punishing on the hardest setting. 
 
But If you want challenging content, Wildstar has it at the end-game in vet dungeons and raids.  Carbine could start selling max-level character boosts, and the primary challenge of the game would still be relevant.

As I said in another thread, back when I was subbed to LOTRO and had tons of "free" Turbine Points to spend on XP boosts, I tried - twice - to level a new toon to cap in a single day's play.  It simply wasn't possible.

Go do halloween dungeon, but only the first part (dark forest).
Grab settler station speed buff and, If you are practiced enough and know your routes, you get to the fountain in lesss than 1 minute.
Exit the dungeon, reset it and go again.
 
Having subscription and/or eating flasks of R&R will give you extra XP boost.
 
You can get 50 in few hours, easy.
 
At lvl 40 completing this first part gives you 8% of level in under a minute. On lower levels its more and more. Calculate for yourself. ;)

I was even quicker.
I just did Regional, Zone and World Story.
 
I actually could have been faster, cause I also did the Drusera instances to refresh my memory
on the lore, and AFKed ~total of 2 hours.
 
Tasks that are around where you already are for the Regional, Zone and World Story are worth
it of course.

I'm a "journey guy" - in MMORPGs it is the "journey" of getting to end game that matters to be far, far more than what happens at end-game.
 
IMO it is a major flaw of almost every MMORPG in existence that Developers think that "end game" is all that matters; they most likely think that because the listen to an overly vocal minority of players who rush to cap and then complain - almost endlessly - that there is nothing to do; yes there is, they just chose to sidestep 90% of what there is to do in favour of whining that there isn't anything to do.
 
There isn't a single MMORPG on the market that I have played that would suffer if they implemented a daily XP cap so that it was impossible to level more than 10% of total xp required to cap per week.
 
Slowing level progression down some would give Devs a little bit of breathing room with content development as well.

So roughly 11.5 hours to level 50, whereof 3 hours consisted of afk mixed with PvP cause whitevale zone was unplayable because of lag.
Should try to do a proper speedleveling session some time, it's quite fun.	
----
			
That's impressive!
Sometimes i wish i had a sort of instant lvl50 myself.
 
But every other day i rather miss a slider to reduce my XP to half or less and have more time to enjoy the journey.

How do you just exit after you get to the fountain?  i'm not in a dungeon group or anything so there's nothing to click to leave.....
 
 
EDIT: Nvm, I just join a solo expedition and leave that.  Gets me out.

			Don't join by clicking on portal. Open group finder and que after clicking on "Do not look for other players", it happened to my on my main that i failed one objective and wanted to reset it but couldn't do it. Had to use the Holo Trasportation to Thayd to leave and que again :)

say your level 40,
 
10 level 8% per level,  100/8% = 12.5 times  * 10 levels ... have fun running it 125 times....

			You got a missed call!

I've reached lvl 20 by finishing Galeras, and then I did 20->50 in Halloween dungeon (every 5 levels I've also joined normal dungeons to check out how they look).
 
Next on my list: doing scientist stuff from whitevale forward (I'm lvl 20 scientist also atm), and starting lvl 50 content.
If some of my friends will be at lower levels in areas I haven't done yet, I'll join in on mentoring and do some quests there also. All works out just fine.

See...this is strange.  Unless I've missed something the halloween dungeon didn't seem to be worth very much exp.  Am I doing it wrong?

I just used sub bonus + R&R.
I went completely unbuffed every time (I could have picked up speed and/or other buffs to do it faster, but CBA).
I cleared dungeon in 15 min on average (from 13 min to 18 min) depending on the slack.
 
At lvl 49 i was geting 15% per clear, so 15% per 15min.
At around lvl 40 i was getting 24% per 15 min.
I believe at lvl 30 was around 35% per 15 min.
And when i begun around lvl 20 was half level per 15 min.
 
I did full runs to also get 62 shade silvers per run, which after I got everything possible for myself i started converting to platinum by selling stuff on AH, and during event I earned around 80 platinum.
 
If I wanted to do it just for the exp, I'd just repeat the first part (dark forest), but then I'd get no cash and shineys.
First part (the forest) can be done in 1-2 min (in unbuffed mode) depending where you spawn and you get 1/3 of total dungeon exp.
 
So it would mean 5% per 1-2 min on lvl 49 (you would go 49->50 in 30 min or faster with additional XP bonuses that i didn't use).
12% per 1-2 min at lvl 30, etc...
 
But, since I had enough time during the event i just went full runs, got some plat, got all costumes, mounts, stuff for house, got myself full i70 epics, added 4 rune slots to each, set it up with full set runes and fusions, bought the GlitterKitty with all flairs, and still have few plat left for repairs. ;)
 
In my perspective, this event was awesome. Now just to skip through zones to finish up scientist stuff (maybe hit a leveling dungeon or 2 to refresh memory, but they were all too easy), and I'll head to veterans.
 
Even though it took me few days instead of one day to get to 50 by doing full clears (and slacking a lot, and not being all day online), It's not all bout how fast you level, its also what you get while doing it, and I got the full package. :) Those who did it in 9 hours, got the level but nothing else with it.
 
Just saying.
