Time to level

I was wondering if anyone had “crunched” the numbers now regarding leveling 1 to 70 with the 50% experience buff?

Experience to level pre-Wrath

Selected data from above in graph form.

This table shows the character’s current level and the amount of XP required to advance to the next level (e.g. “22: 24000” means that if you are level 22, you need a total of 24,000 XP to advance to level 23). This also shows the difference (percent change) in current XP requirements as compared to before Patch 2.3.0. Note that this percentage, when added to one, is the same as RF(CL) (discrepancies are caused by rounding).

  • The total experience needed to reach level 60 is 3,379,400. This is a decrease of 705,300 experience from pre-2.3.0.
  • The total experience needed to reach level 70 after level 60 is 6,268,300.
  • The total experience needed to reach maximum level (70) is 10,141,700 (3,379,400+494,000+6,268,300).

Someone always has the math but this is without the 50% buff. You can do the rest yourself if you wanna.

Even with the buff I was bored by level 10 and went back to my main lol. Not sure I can ride that train to 70.

What the hell did I just read

You just read Wiki magic

this is where im glad i had venezuelans working for me

Them and Indonesians are having a tough week this week.

Oh I used them to level the rest of my alts but I thought I would give the buff a try…it did not last long lol.

Level 1-60 with the TBC buffs seems take about 4 days /played (~100 hours) for the average player. Then, 60-70 takes about another 50 hours. Before the 50% buff, I’d estimate 1-70 takes about 150 hours.

Now we’d have to know how the 50% buff works. Is it like rested and it only applies to mob kills, or will it also apply to quest turn-ins? If it’s ALL experience, I think we can comfortably just halve the previous number - maybe 75 hours 1-70. If it’s only mob kills, which probably represent about 30% of the experience you gain 1-70, then 1/3 of 150 = 50 / 2 = 25. So I’d estimate 125 hours from 1-70 in that case.

TL:DR - 75 hours if the buff effects ALL experience. 125 hours if the buff affects mob experience alone.

It is 50% increased exp from all sources. Kills and Quests alike.

You gotta put on the right movie in the background.

Better Off Dead, Tron, Saving Private Ryan, Starship Troopers, Inglorious Bs, etc.

I tried, I ended up just watching the movie because leveling was meh.

Thats fair. Ya gotta like that sort of thing, like I do.
