Guild Wars 2

why would you nerf it? I’m done with gliding and halfway through the mushroom masteries already

It goes pretty quick if you have all the +exp stuff on.

It is indeed a fair bit of a grind. There should be something rewarding along the way in between each level of mastery.

Like… a MASTERY?

Why not? The people who want those tracks the fastest for all characters (remember: it’s account bound) are the first ones who would complain there’s nothing left to do after completion.

Why has everything to be so fast? Just play the game and eventually you’ll get what you want. Alas this is an MMO, it’s not supposed to be a walk in the park and finished in 10 hours like a single player console game.

people seem to forget, how many extreme ways exist in this game to increase significantly your Exp gains …

You seem to forget that kills offer literally the lowest exp amount that you can possibly get in game. Ressing a dead NPC gives more xp than killing a mob that just respawned, mining a mithril node gives more xp, discovering a new recipe in crafting, finding a POI, viewing a vista, all of these give more xp than killing mobs.

So sure, you can get bonus xp, but it is on the lowest source of xp in the game.

Get some more achievements + use permanent food and oil. Not so bad exp from mobs. Heh some mobs give me 5000 experience. (Double with exp boosts).

Anet has to balance things: on one hand they have hard-core players who will insta-80, have full gear ready on launch, use 3-5 exp boosters, and Zerg grind non stop for the first few days, and on the other hand they have people who will play for a few hours on weekends.
