So... I took a fresh alt character to EW in under 4 days worth of time

Hmm I guess it is possible, but during my levelling with alts I also try to get the Aether Currents - it will make the post patch travelling easier - and I guess if you don't use a class like tank or healer, this takes a lot longer.

I guess it is possible to do in less than a week...but then you need to have a lot of patience because it's still over 700 quests (over 800 if you count EW and its current post patch content) and I don't know if a new player can do that many quests in a single sitting. I certainly can't: not even in WoW or SWTOR I did this many quests.
