Is it me or ?
Leveling to 80 the first time was fairly enjoyable. But having since completed map exploration on that character, leveling alts has been tedious. Once you reach 30, it becomes a grind.
but a harsh word stirs up anger.” -Jewish Proverb
I love leveling characters and exploring the game from a different perspective.
I have also found that I really enjoy having more than 1 lvl80
So it’s all good

That’s true. I’m not suggesting trying to max out every character if you have 5 or more. I’m thinking more on the terms of leveling a character to 80, experiencing that character to the fullest and deciding if you want to go further with that character.
One thing I’ve learned the hard way is, you won’t know which profession you will enjoy the most unless you experience more than one.

Yeah, because I think for alts, you have sort of an idea what kind of skills you want on that character.
If you know what you want to learn, most likely you’ll learn most of them by the time you reach 30 something. And by 60 you’ve learned most of the ones you’re gonna use. Most of the other levels are just filler.
Even when the game started, I go to the Mists as soon as I can (Level 2) and see what the character can do at high levels. Most of the time, I’ve already pre-planned what skills I’m gonna go for from the start.
I already saw that I will get bored if I try to level alts thru the same content. So I made a conscious decision to level my alts on different “levelling paths”:
— My main I levelled in Maguuma first, then went to LA, then down North/South from there all the way to Orr. He’ll be (EDIT: or rather IS) in the Priory.
— My alt I levelled him in the Eastern part of the Map, using the portal in Divinity’s Reach to go to the Fields of Ruin and go North until the I reach Frostgorge at Level 80. He’ll be in the Vigil.
— Whenever I level a 3rd one, it’ll be whatever is leftover, or crafting, or WvWvW or something. For the story, he’ll be in the Whispers.
