You can get like 40-50k/hr in partys through most the levels, maby around 20-30k/hr in the mid 20s low 30s, and close to 100k/hr in the mid-upper 40s.

Leveling atm is absurdly fast atm if anything they need to nerf it. While Soloing is alot slower... it is still easily a level a night if you spend 2-3hrs which is a very good leveling pace in a mmo with 50 levels.


As for the new and Old. New will vastly outnumber the old (if not the game has bigger problems then a balance issue with the current subcount). It will be just like NA release of XI, PS3 EU/NA launch, and Xbox launch. In each of these new members entered with a ton of capped people, and everything worked out well.

SE needs to do what they did with each of these other releases. Release new classes with them. So PS3 release = release of arcanist and musketeer. Now old people will be leveling with the new... problem solved.
