Bookworm_Jedi Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Resubbed on the 25th to prepare for Fallen Empire. Made a new JK for 4.0. I'm about to go to Alderaan on Ch. 1 and I'm already at level 42! Is it possible to hit Lv. 60 through the base game?
LordSkyKnight Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Of course you can. I used to do it before the 12xp hit for the first time. I often would level up through flashpoints and warzones and skip the whole solo pve part of the game. Now with the changes with the super fast leveling and massive boost to xp with the regular story missions, I would imagine it would be pretty easy to max your level before you even got close to the new expansion content.
Bookworm_Jedi Posted November 4, 2015 Author Posted November 4, 2015 Awesome. I'm not sure if I want to play Hutt Cartel. Is it possible to just jump from endgame > SOR> Fallen Empire?
JLazarillo Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 I tried a new character as an "experiment", doing pretty much every bit of story and side-mission content I could (without farming the same thing multiple times), and I was 65 with him by Hoth. The leveling format won't take you from planet to planet quite as quickly as the 12XP did, but in practice, it actually levels you a lot faster.
DocDAM Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Subject says "class missions" but last part of question says "base game". So I'm not sure the answers so far comprehend what you exactly mean. If you mean just by playing your class story, the answer is NO. If you mean just by the time you complete your class story, but doing a lot of extra content along the way, the answer is obviously, yes if you do enough extra. In the past, when you got 7 levels above the content, you'd get essentially no XP (6 XP actually), so it would only have been possible by transitioning to non-planet content at a certain point (high-level FP's, KDY, Ops, PvP). But now with level-sync, you can presumably continue to gain XP while doing class story. So yeah, I suppose you can do it now, with enough added planet and side-quest missions, and maybe a smattering of other content like FP's, etc. But that's just a deduction.
Jerqa Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Absolutely you can, easily. Just follow the purple mission's and you'll be fine. The purple missions are the Class story and the Planetary Arc missions but you do not have to do the Planetary Arc's if you do not want to. They just help with the exp and give you a story for each place that you visit along the way. Happy gaming
Emersyn Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Awesome. I'm not sure if I want to play Hutt Cartel. Is it possible to just jump from endgame > SOR> Fallen Empire? As long as you can hit 55 through regular questline (you could alway go to Ilum to finish up the last bit if you get close - but you shouldnt have a problem) - you can skip right to Shadow of Revan. One thing to note, you do get a quest turn in almost instantly (just dialogue) right when you start Hutt Cartel (now avail at lvl 51) - worth doing that at least to get a quick quest completed (but then the Hutt quest will be forever in your quest logs)
