Effec Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 (edited) I'm a level 41 Assassin and the class story now has me on Voss trying to fight a level 47 boss. I can do absolutely zero damage to him. I thought they said we could just follow the story arc to progress??? I should mention that yes I am a subscriber So now what? Edited November 1, 2015 by Effec
Mubrak Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 12x XP is over you need to play the rest of the game again.
Effec Posted November 1, 2015 Author Posted November 1, 2015 New 1-60 Leveling Experience! Leveling from level 1 has never been more exciting! You can now reach Level 60 by doing Main Story Arc Missions and Planetary Arc Missions. http://www.swtor.com/patchnotes/10202015/game-update-4.0-knights-fallen-empire-early-access So I have to do the Planetary Arc Missions as well as the story. Not all of the little side missions and I should have been fine....
GythralSWTOR Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 The story arcs - class and planet, those with a purple icon. Plenty of way you can get out this, as with level sync any mission you do will award reasonable XP, go back and do the plant mission on an earlier planet, do heroic, flashpoints, PvP.

If not I would go back see what you missed. Or just do a few heroics to get some extra exp

Emersyn Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 and Planetary Arc Missions. ^^ :/ You have to do the full planetary arc's now too to keep in line - or do flashpoints / warzones etc to help Still much faster than it used to be, but not as fast as 12x experience
Palasi Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 I am currently level 38 and I have only been doing my class story and the purple story arcs on each planet and I am still on level 30 stuff. I would do some flashpoints and pvp to get you up to 47 and then start doing both planet and class story arcs!
ForceWelder Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 This is how I did it OP on my current post 4.0 sith warrior, and this was without any external XP boosts active ... I did all the quests on Korriban plus two warzones after I hit level 10. I was level 17 when I left Korriban and hit the fleet for the first time. Then I did two flashpoints, a couple of warzones, and all purple quests on Dromund Kaas. I was level 32 at the point I left the capital world. At that point, I was so far ahead of the curve I simply just started focusing on class quests only (with a little pvp to break up the monotony). Currently I am level 46 on this toon and haven't even step foot on the first planet yet in the Chapter two class story. Although the leveling slowed considerably once I got in the 30s, I still think I will be pushing the upper 50s by the time I finish Chapter 3 of the class story. I may not even have to do makeb, Illum, Oricon, or Forged Alliance. Just do Ziost, get my level 190 gear and head on into the next expansion. My suggestion to you would be to queue up a couple of flashpoints and do a few rounds of PVP. If you haven't done any PVP at all, you may have missed out on an opportunity to gain gear when you were low level. After 4.0, they added a mission to the PVP terminal where you simply interact with it and you receive level 10 earpiece, relics, and implants. Just doing the interactive quest and two warzones to do the daily, I ended up with enough XP to gain two levels while still in my teens.
Zeris Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 In my experience leveling my alts, I've just done the planetary arcs and the class missions. I haven't done any flashpoints or side quests on the majority of them. I've found myself to be almost an entire planet ahead of the curve as far as my level goes. However, if you were just doing your story quests and absolutely nothing else and found yourself in a bottleneck, do some tactical flashpoints, heroic missions with your companion on a lower level planet, or go back and do some of the side quests. While it is true that they've increased the experience gain overall for planetary and class arcs, that doesn't necessarily mean your experience is going to be ideal or on par if you simply do the bare minimum. Go back and experience more of the content.
