Hey

Both question and not question:

Can this be done?

Also, what unusual ways of reaching lvl80 you know of and have employed?

No, it doesn’t work. Iirc, doing 100% map completion and no fighting or anything else gets you to like 68/69.

no. according to the wiki there are 513 waypoints and 723 points of interest.

points of interest give a maximum of 1.5% of a level (if the poi is at your level, which would not be the case when repeating low level zones), and waypoints give a maximum of 2.5% of your level.

with those totals, you’ll get about 23.67 levels. You should also consider there are areas too, which give a max of 1% of a level when discovered, but considering there are less of those than poi (but I couldn’t find the number) you should only expect maybe a few more levels in the best case scenario. Maybe optimistically rounding to 30 levels. Some zones would be incredibly hard to scout given you’d be 50 levels underleveled, though they would give higher xp since the rewards are for the level of the zone.

either way, I’d say this isn’t something that can be accomplished.

Maybe not really unusual but I suddenly realized this weekend, I managed to level one character to lvl78 with only Caledon Forest and Metrica Province done and Brisban around 70%. Crafting professions are around 150-200 points and no level scrolls were used….
