I felt it was slower on live but that's ages ago and maybe I'm mistaken...xenexprime wrote:It is very slow, not even the live servers were this bad. The funny thing I find reading all these posts from the people saying it isn't slow is that they tell people "then go power level" well if they power level they will be in a disadvantage when they get to T4, so why not just make it easier? Or are you all T4 people afraid of more competition?
About the Power-leveling ... a single RvR BO Champ in T3 nets you ~8k exp (not rested, in a Party of 2 People). A complete BO in T3 has 5 Champs = 40k exp. By just circling through BO's and a little bit RVR (Keep-deffs/takes / Zonelocks) on the side you should level up (and have your RR almost on par) in a very relaxed but efficient way by the time you hit T4 (R31/RR27-31).
This is in no way magical power-leveling that puts you in a disadvantage.
If you just do PvE Quests / grind unrewarding (in terms of exp) PvE MoBs... yeah, then you are doing it wrong choose the slow way (in terms of level pace and no RR progress at all).
