And before somebody says "b-but mob kill xp" the paltry xp you got at level really was not worth the aggravation. Being able to unlock DNC and GNB before setting foot in HW is brilliant.
Oh, for those leveling their umpteenth alt, the Road to 70 buff can be great. No question about that.
For new players on the other hand, I strongly recommend staying away from Road to 70. It causes more problems than it solves for them - because it doesn't really solve any problems at all for new players.
