Guild Wars 2

^ Thats one of the ways right there.

Apparently up scaling isn’t too bad. I read somewhere when you receive buffs from towers etc you actually have a stat advantage. I didn’t play much WvW before I levelled my chars, but sounds like it was a decent way to do it. If I was going to do another character, Id probably level it that way.

The fastest way has always been crafting. You get ten levels for leveling a crafting discipline to 400 and there are 8 disciplines, do the math. If you have some extra gold you don’t mind spending, head over to gw2crafts.net and get your craft on. Outside of that, the beautiful thing is that you can level doing whatever you enjoy doing most. Like exploring, do map completion. Like Dynamic Events, farm chains. Like dungeons, run em. Like WvW, play it. Like sPvP, you don’t even need to level. For dungeons you need to be Lvl 30 and they suggest you be Lvl 30 (when you unlock your elite skill) before you try WvW. So either craft or just do whatever you like and you’ll get there soon enough. I’m kinda impatient, but I like dungeons. So I usually do hearts until about Lvl 10 (when my head starts to fell like it’s going to explode), then craft Chef and Jewelcrafting to 400 which gets me to Lvl 30, then run dungeons and do dailies until 80.

Issue with crafting is you need gold, usually lots of it.

I found that map completion is one of the fastest ways to level up. Just make sure to do some events every now and then as well.
