I am contemplating the 19million exp to get a certain mastery line. I was getting 18k exp per event. Now i got hit by diminishing returns and only earning 2k exp per event.

Dont purposely farm them just go explore the jungle. Don’t let level up be your goal, aka don’t play to level up, level up while playing instead.

Some must fight so that all may be free.

Levelling up is the ONLY goal of doing Mastery’s.

The Jungle is GATED by Mastery’s you are forced to level. You can’t just hop into the next area or move to the next map. You have to GRIND a area to death first.

It takes about 5 times as long to complete events in the jungle than it does in the open world outside it.

If you die at any point or stop doing anything for 90 seconds you lose credit for that event. I have lost count of the times I lost credit because I died on the final boss and didn’t get a rez straight away.

DR kicks in after 20 – 30 mins. Events in the jungle take upwards of 15 – 30 mins each. Do the math. After doing just one event in a area DR has likely already kicked in.

Once you have gliding, bouncing mushrooms, and updrafts you can reach almost all of the content so you shouldn’t have to deal with diminishing returns.

Also try out the adventures. They give pretty decent experience.

There are clouds of poison in areas gating that until you get the Mastery.

The rewards for some of the events require you to have other Mastery’s so you can buy keys to open the rewards. If you do the event before you complete them mastery’s & buy a key you get no reward.

The new GATED reward system where you can spend 30 mins completing content and killing that boss but get lesser or no reward until you grind out mastery.

Just in verdant brink alone there are enough different events and adventures to level masteries without dealing with diminishing returns and you don’t need many masteries for that area.
