I took me about four hours to hit lvl 3, and probably a solid fourteen hours to hit lvl 15. Granted, I wasn't very familiar with the areas before, and was still getting used to using a controller, but it still felt like an awfully long time. I think I made the mistake of purely following the city-quests, when I should have just ventured out.

Anyways, I've been slacking-off the past couple of days, but I'm hoping to really get back into it today and this weekend. I think I'm lvl 28 right now, hoping I can hit lvl 40 by Sunday night. From what I gather, I should just focus on the Story-quests until I get to an area with enemies the same level as me, and then also run Side-quests. I'm curious, though; is it worth queueing for Dungeons while I'm questing? Or *just* focus on questing?

That felt like a long time??? True, it's possible to do it quicker, but only if you forego any exploration or investigation of the story. You'd miss out on the best part of the game if you rush past all the content without taking the time to talk to all the NPCs, for instance. Slow down and the game will be a million times better for it.
