Leveling isn’t harder though. It’s become significantly easier. World first race was over is 16 hours or so. I was rank 35 when I logged off at 8 am. Although I’m not a speed runner and got out of the campaign at 1600 place but made up time in the End Game.
So if you can reach 100 level on day 1 is it hard?
As I posted above the Tome farming really is a thing, it’s not just about corruption. Opening chest, doing Echo quest objectives and extra exp tomes dropping goes a long way. Then the final chest dropping over 20 exp tomes is a lot if it procs.
So I’d say leveling has become pretty chill if using actual strats.
The point of the thread is it takes to long, which it doesn’t.
On the point you are trying to make it’s boring, well that is more of progression and content driven. It has nothing to do with leveling. That is an engagement issue where content feels tedious instead of fun and it’s not rewarding. (That’s a whole other issue in regards to end game and progression i’ve addressed in my thread here.
