    What did you play more?
    What did your friend play?
    There's the huge difference.

    Just slap on a XP boost and explore acts 1-4. They will give solid amounts of XP and decent loot

    I thought arena never give xp, also it's not glitch, your friend probably play more actually, only you didn't know it

    Interesting how leveling has become a point of contention again.

    For the sake of argument, I glanced at your quests completed, daily quests, and quest fights. Both of my old cavalier alts are level 60, and each have about three times as many completed quests as your account. (Let’s not discuss how many my main has, it makes me sad.)

    So, honestly, everything after 50 is a slog, which is why 75% boosts became a thing. And while forward progression in Story has accelerated, and rewards in older story have dated, you are likely stuck needing to go back and get exploration done if you want to have that R3 at 6.4.6

    If you haven’t explored act 4, that’s priority, for the mastery points. Act 5 should wait for next month, when the energy drops. That should make some of the leveling issues ease.

    Also, can someone tell me how you "check playtime" which I'm assuming is time spent playing this game. Honestly, I'd be scared to see how much time I've spent playing this in the last 6 years, but no such options exists to my knowledge (although I could be wrong). So I'm super curious how one checks the amount of time playing this game compared to another player.

    As you get higher in levels, they require more xp. If your friend started lower than you and played the exact same content, they would level up faster because of that. If you spend the same amount of time but focus on areas of the game (like EQ and arena) while your friend spent more time in story content (esp Act 4) and/or boosted, it makes a lot of sense that they leveled up faster. Different areas of the game have wildly different xp available.

    Also, we aren't saying that it is impossible for there to be a bug, but unless you're able to provide a lot more data, then the much more likely scenario is that you are mistaken.

    Playtime is not the same with exploration, maybe he explore more quest but you do other things but same play time, please provide screenshot on your progress in the game, not play time, REMEMBER PROGRESS NOT PLAYTIME, so screen shot on both your and your friend's quest exploration

    How many months being played is completely irrelevant in leveling up. Even amount of time played isn't completely relevant (higher exp in some areas than others).

    I took one of my minis from level 1 to level 45 in under 2 weeks with very little effort (explored story and used exp boosts) last November/December before gifting event.

    Typically the best way is to boost and use full energy refills to fully explore Act 4. It will also give you some essential mastery points that you will want later in the game.

    As squirrel said, use xp boosts and explore story. Story has easiest XP to gain to level up. Act 4 exploration gives large amounts of exp. Once you fully explore that, move on to exploring act 5. You will be level 60 very soon.

    Go for act 7 completion it gives an r3 generic gem, it's what iam doing ryt now
  • Lovejoy72Lovejoy72 Member Posts: 1,858 ★★★★
    The idea of not doing act 4 100%, and leaving those mastery points on the table makes me twitchy. And I did the old, long 3 energy version (though post juggernaut nerf).

    Story Content specifically is the best for leveling up your Summoner. Use XP boosts and fully explore that content. One thing that hasn't been mentioned is whether or not your friend has the Summoner Sigil? I believe that offers a permanent XP Boost while active.

    Edit: There are also 2 Mastery's that boost XP. It's possible your friend is using those as well. People say they're not worth it but I used them as the content wasn't necessarily all that difficult before I reached Level 60.

    Did you use the 40% or 50% XP boost.. it helps in increasing your level.
