My exp hasn't really changed much in the last few months since i cut back on farming and 55hp monking. It takes hours and hours to get a single skill point in PVP so unfair...

. Missed my 500'th skill point but i got the pick for 7 mill...

I have to get back on my game then!

Not...I'm at about a tenth of what you have right now. The majority of my Mesmer's playing time has been with other people.

But yeah, once I gain a little more xp, I'll feel more comfortable posting my Hero's screen.

Edit: Nice dye combination on your armor, Blue+Black correct? Looks a little too familiar...

In that picture I'm using blue+purple+green, gives a lighter shiny blue. I'm just standing in a dark place. Switched to Red + Black now because I had some spare black dyes.

I'm going for 300 skill points by faction release... wish me luck, kekeke.

How anyone can get that much XP... That can't be healthy. Or conform EULA...

I can get 200k a day without too much hassle, a monk could probably get more, lets say 300k a day. Say 10 days for 3 mill then, so thats just 2-3 months of megafarming?

Not that hard

300-400k for me, if I tried. I've only done this ONCE (4000k-4400k). It was... not healthy for me

Hmm...the troll cave nets approximately 7000xp per run with scrolls. Let's say it takes 3 minutes per run. There are 1440 minutes in 24 hours, so that allows for 480 troll runs per day. 480 * 7000 = 3,360,000xp in one day, so getting to 15 million is "only" 5 days of non-stop troll farming. But that's really not healthy since I didn't allow room for eating or toliet breaks.

Or sleep. Don't forget that!

Also note there's a percentage of failed runs, chatting, stopping to breathe, sell items, etc...

I've logged 1.4k hours on my account. 400 of them on Vilaptca. 250 on Sharra. Only like 75 on Nixie...

Apparently I've deleted around 700 hours of game play when I deleted my monk, elementalist, ranger and other necromancer...

Vilaptca is about to hit 1 million xp. Not from solo farming. From PUGing it up in SF, Tombs and henching his way through the whole game. I'm so proud of him.

No screenshots though, because I'm at school...

Lol, there's no way anyone in the right mind would do nothing but solo farm like that...

(key phrase: "in the right mind"

)

And I wasn't discriminating when I said that the reason for my Mesmer not having that much XP was being in full groups. It's a fact, the only way to get insane amounts of XP is to farm in reduced-size groups, such as soloing or 2-person UW, etc. When you're in a group of 8, your XP is split among all 8 people, and you're lucky to get 25XP per monster. But recently I have been refining my solo builds and am working on building my XP up (who knows, XP may have a use in Factions, such as the /xp emote

)

A single FoW run has 11 quests (total 100k) xp. Do 1-2 of those a day and you're passing my soloxp rate

Very true, but going into Fissure requires America actually having favor
But we have been working on the Titan quests, I just wish they were redo-able, like UW/FoW quests.

I've been hovering in the 9-million area for a while now, but this thread motivated me to farm the last bit today :

I bought/captured all the skills in a marathon of gaming sessions just before the Sorrows Furnace release when the devs warned us to spend all our skill points since skills would soon be more costly. Of course it turned out to be the opposite for those of us with lots of skills (to the tune of ~300K wasted ).

I reached a "milestone" finally...to have 1/10th of Avarre's xp!

Photoshop? What's that...

But seriously, everything's true except the level and rank.

Do I hear a challenge? No, not from me -lol. They've been gained from different, but perfectly valid methods.
Mine from doing Pve using non 55/trick builds, Avarre's from farming and trying to develop trick builds(love the 2 person mesmer idea btw).

...And the fact that whenever I get close, Shan clears FoW and UW for 200k xp in the time it takes me to log in...

I'm busy this week, so I doubt I'll be able (or even try) to catch up anytime soon. Xp isn't a measure of skill, and I prefer to clear stuff in small groups whereas Shan likes full groups. We still know the areas equally

Yup, just a shame Anet wont let me by passport control and Avarre is in a LFR (less favored region).

I like full teams of 8, for the social side. I liken it to a stroll in the hills with a group of friends as opposed to a hike with just you and your backpack. Both Valid but suiting different aspects.

A challenge? I give up.
My goal is to have 1,000,000xp to tie my Warrior's and Monk's, then I'm done competing. I about died from boredom farming Trolls just to get 600K.
Having insane amounts of XP usually isn't much more than a statement of how much time one has on their hands. So after my goal is reached, my "55" Stylish Attire will be retired (except for soloing UW when I'm desperate).

I'm on America, you're on Europe. Pardon, but I believe you are the one in a less favored region

Still on my aim for 10,000,000 by the end of the month or slightly afterwards... shall we have a party then? (Shan, you better reach 10m too!)

My goal will be my necro now, high experiance milestones get boring afterwhile, I like the hunt for elite skill capturing on a totally new account ^.^
ZoMG I unlocked a fiery sword hilt! kewl!

I hope you dont listen to Guild Wars music when farming, you would die of boredom quickly... personally I have sound tracks for what I do on Guild Wars... but thats a little off topic.

But depending on my mood, I may put on something a little more to my taste.

By the way, congrats Cartoonhero on 1,000,000 XP!

Edit:

Nope, totally not competing...
