Leveling is way to fast...

[Altanas]

I agree the pace is too fast. It seems the solo speed with bonus is the speed that party levelling should be set at. That way you would earn around 100k for an evenings party (say 1h30min). At the moment, in a party, when you ding a level, by the time the current chain ends you could already be hovering 5-10k into level lol, and you havent even gotten around to equiping your gear or setting your point allotment lol.

Another related issue is that you dont need to buy appropriate level gear. In 11, for example, you would get your ass handed to you unless you geared up for the right level range. That is another factor that adds to the time consuming element of levelling that just isnt present here.

If you had to break from levelling to gear up and do other things/quests, you would appreciate the levelling experience a lot more. In turn you would appreciate and hold dear particular zones for various level ranges, thereby creating a more immersive experience with a long term impact on the player as a person.
