My average key farm time went from 20-30 minutes solo to an hour and a half solo.
It’s not gone, just annoyingly long now.

The current Living Story is awarding keys, you can take all your alts through for a free key each.
Wooden Potatoes video on You Tube is a great guide, gw2crafts.net has a section on the cheapest way to craft 1-200 Cooking which will get you to level 10 (cost varies from 1.5 to 2 gold). Currently my designated toon Human Guardian does the first 4 hearts Queensdale to get to 4 (so I can get a speed buff using Staff 3) which takes about 7-10 minutes. Use the portal in DR to head to Hoelbrak (for me the easiest city to complete and there are multiple Speed Boost NPCs there), 100% completion gives a transmutation charge worth 3 gold. Another 15 minutes or less. Back to DR to craft cooking (only need up to 100 now since you’ll be lvl 6 which takes maybe 5 minutes) And Voila lvl 10! Personal story time
Cost is pretty negligible, but I end up with a trans. charge and a key.
It was possible back in September to craft to level 10 at no loss. In fact, you could make a profit. Many people did not know about this because those crafting websites they rely on do not account for items that can be crafted at a profit.
Another crafting thing you can do is refine the low level mats (copper, jute, green wood, rawhide) and sell those back. If you get them ahead of time cheap on buy order and sell them on sell order you can usually at least break even. It’s only a few levels but it cuts down on your cost if you finish leveling with cooking.
Also keep in mind that you don’t get the same XP from levels 1-125 as you do from 126-250.

You’re not doing it right then D=
Even crafting a character to level 10 and doing the key run can be done in less than 20mins if you’re well equipped.

Ehhhh…..it varies.
I do the first four hearts in queens, and I don’t have the toy speed boost, but there are uncontrollable factors.
The lv 1 area for the event you may get stuck at the gate, and not have enough time to run around.
Any events that take place around the four heart areas. I usually just do enough for credit and continue on, but if no events pop up, less XP, thus need to craft more.
Other players, usually around the second and third heart, can impede your run as well killing mobs.
Then there’s if your crafting crits or not.
Then theres if the mobs in the story behave correctly and not go on to the NPCs or something in the story.
