12xp doesn't actually get you to 55?

Recommended Posts

I just finished my first class (ever) with my consular and I'm only level 53. I did some other quests in between. Basically the planet quest and I'm only 53. the boost doesn't get you to 55 that I'm aware of.

 

My question is where do I go now? Illum or Makheb so I can get to 55?

 

Do I do all the quests in the area? As the 12xp is only for class quests it doesn't apply right?

 

Any pointers would be great.

 

Alas I wish this boost was their mainstay. I can't imaging going through every side quest just to get enough experience for my other classes.

Actually, you go to Makeb when you hit 47. Those quests can reward you upwards of 500k exp per turn in. You'll hit 55 in less than one hour.

^^^^^^^^^^What he said. Actually the "Class" missions only were meant to get to you to 50 so the fact you're at 53 and you didn't do makeb yet is great for you.

Yes the class story gets you to 55, Ilum and Makeb are part of the class story. Its just Ilum and Makeb aren't individual class story.

Well, Ilum and Makeb aren't actually part of your class story but they are included in the 12x XP event for this purpose.

Your class story ends on Corellia and if you're 53 at that point, clearly 12x has more than done it's job since it was originally designed to only get you to lvl 50.

 

Knock out a couple of Makeb missions and that'll easily put you over the top.

Thanks guys. I'm not sure what the GSI Boost does or whatever. I went to Mahkeb and did 2 areas oft he quest line of that planet and knocked 55 within an hr.

 

Was this Mahkeb quest line part of the Hutt expansion? I'm not sure.

 

Anyway I would love to have this 12xp gain as a perk that way I can play all the class stories and experience both ends of the each subclass (light side/dark side)

The GSI boost basically over-powers you for Makeb (but it drops if you die or leave the planet) so you can cruise through the content there much faster.

A lvl 47 with weak gear and the boost won't have much trouble with Makeb at all.

 

Also, Makeb *IS* the Hutt expansion.

How were you able to do 47-55 in less than an hour? I've never been able to complete 47-55 in under 90 minutes...

Yes, Makeb is the Rise of the Hutt Cartel expansion. I ended up doing this trick five times when characters hit 47. I hit 55 before the final missions, so I'm saving those storylines for when I can actually get XP again.

The OP who was 53 after finishing chapter 3 will be 55 in less than an hour after landing on Makeb - that's all DL was saying

Makeb depends on your faction.

 

Republic takes much longer than IMP.

 

Imperial Makeb is very easy to do 47-55 in ~60 - 70 minutes.

Rep Makeb takes ages.. one reason why i only did 1x Rep Char on 55 during this 12x EXP Boost Event so far.. the other chars are still at the start of the makeb questline.

Yeah on my partly leveled sage and guardian the corellia stuff made me end up as a level 53 each (don't know if it was totally levelled from 1 whether it made a difference) so I had to do the first 2 missions on Makeb to complete, the GSI boost helped a lot (although I think it did persist through death but I think I only died twice and that was a strong group guarding a lockbox and during the Heroic 2+ which I though I may be able to do myself but no chance against the hover tank).

 

On my scoundrel though I went to Makeb at 47 and did almost all the quests there and pinged 55.

Doesn't drop if you die. Only if you log out or leave the planet.

u get 55 by doing the first 3-4 quests on MAKEB... I always stop there and I always avoid corellia!

 

when I get 47 i go to makeb, with 1 quest I become 49 and the next quest I get 50 nearly 51.... then its 1 quest per lvl.

 

Normally the quest that I have to free the scientists in empire side... is the final quest when I ding 55.

Ah, ok... that makes sense now. :o

60-70 minutes still seems rather fast, even for empire players. For those on the republic side, 47-55 in that time period is impossible. The only time I've ever come close to 60 minutes was in an empire group with other "experienced" 12x players.

Well I didn't get to 55 or finish my class story as I am still on the move to keep the evil sith from destroying planets.

I am lvl 50, but I did get several other classes to lvl 30 with the boost.

I got to see several story lines from Siths to Troopers and did healing, tanking and damage roles.

I will miss the x12, but my work will not miss me calling in sick and working from home....

Using a stealth class it is possible. I just completed it on my Sage and she only took about 1 hour and 20 minutes (would have been less if I weren't stuck for 20 minutes).
