fastest way to level?
Zerging in LA. Use the belongings to buy more levels.

Crafting
Currently playing Heart of Thorns.
Crafting too, but it’s now prohibitively expensive (and impossible) to craft all the way to 80 from 2. You will have to fill the gaps by doing something else, like maybe a few level tomes.
“Memories are nice, but that’s all they are.”
I’ve recently just leveled an alt, took around a week without any hearts, story etc (partly because i was using it for the LW event).
Tombs of Knowledge, insta level if your not aware. You can get them from BLTC chest’s, 1500 glory and 20 silver in spvp hub and also from the LW mat’s. I believe its 250 of the found belongings and 30 silver per tomb at the refugee camp vendor.
Dungeons, running storymode dungeons as they become available will give you about 75% of a level on completion. If you have a good group of friends or guild you can also do EXP mode’s on your main and switch out at the end before rewards. This probably works well with CoF etc as they are fast and easy.
Crafting, used to be amazing but has since been nerfed. If you have the cash and mats doing 2 crafts from 0-500 will give you 30 levels (apparently). I wasn’t keeping track but did do both crafts to 500 with a booster active at all times.
Quests, hearts and story missions do give good exp but depending on how tired you are of this you may want to seek other methods.
LW, if you have some of the killstreak boosters doing LW train’s and events can be good for rewards as well as exp. Just keep in mind at lower levels even if you attack the mob throughout its whole “life” you may not do enough damage to actually tag it. So best to be around level 40ish when being upscaled so that your efforts actually count.
WvW, i hear that some people do level alt’s via WvW. I can understand the awards but your only as fast as the zerg…which has other goals than just leveling you. Also the possibility of that thief 1-2 shotting your upleveled toon (and it will) while struggling to tank a moa you accidentally hit just isn’t appealing.
Spvp, you could potentially effectively level a toon via sPvP (tomb of knowledge for 1500 glory, 20 silver) while having fun. It would also burn through any glory boosters you have that will soon be deleted.
Anyway, tombs of knowledge, dungeons when possible and as fast as possible, crafting with boosters and the odd heart and story mission should get you there pretty fast. If there’s any other faster ways i’m sure someone will point it out.
P.S i missed out map completion but thats because i’ve never tried it, i prefer to do it at the end when all speed boosts and maximum dps is available to burn through it all.
It’s tomes, not tombs. I don’t think a glorified grave is very knowledgable in anything.
Otherwise, good points.
“Memories are nice, but that’s all they are.”
lol sorry about that. I actually corrected it throughout as i was typing. Too much tomb Raider as a kid
thanks for the deep info!
I levelled all my alts in WvW.
There is no way I could bear to plod through all the PvE content over again.
