im level 14 .

Personal recommendation… go through Queensdale into Kessex Hills. Don’t exit via the Swamp that’s too far away and the path through Kessex might not be very forgiving, instead go through the exit that’s in the Southwestern most corner of Queensdale, there’s a town over there.

At level 14 you will be a bit low for this, but as there’ll be plenty of people doing the event (in my experience always 8+ participants) there’s a string of 4 Events that take place just south of Fort Salma involving centaurs. You’ll have to make sure you attack the mobs long enough since at your level when you attack it does less damage and maybe quite a few ‘glancing’ shots. You’ll still be able to get credit if you hit the mobs though and if some enemy really decides not to like you there’s plenty of people always willing to give you a quick rez (since they get XP for that too).

Main thing to keep in mind with this approach is until you reach the level of the event it’s prolly best to keep a ranged weapon equipped. If you get in Melee range (or hang around certain champions) you can prolly get one-shot killed there.

Doing that chain a few times over can very quickly level you up. I (for instance) have a level 41 character that I’ve only spent 37 hours playing (though I don’t skimp out on doing the personal story missions either, those certainly have the highest rewards if you do them at or slightly below level recommendation).

Best way to get XP is to fight the same mobs that others are fighting… the only catch is that if you hit an enemy once and move on you may not be contributing enough to get credit.

What I mean is lets say there’s a Bandit you’re trying to kill. He has X amount of HP and you hit him once or twice for A amount of damage. The game is set up so that if you don’t deal a certain percentage of damage, you didn’t do enough to warrant a reward.

so if A is = or > % of X, then you get XP and possibly some drops… make sure you do enough damage before tackling the next mob.

Hi!
Help us a little so we can help you better.

Where are you? What is your current level?

What do you mean by helping people? Is it doing the Heart Tasks, helping the NPCs that call for your attention (Dynamic Events) or are you helping players?

First things first: Killing mobs in this game is not how you level up. The XP isn’t that good.

If you want to grind levels, what you’ll want to do is Explore and do Events. Run around the open world, grabbing every heart/waypoint/PoI/Vista you can. Skillpoints and Hearts are good exp, but take a bit more time and effort to obtain. Your choice there.

You can also go to WvW for XP as well. Follow around the zerg and participate in events for fast XP. You can technically do this at any level, but you won’t have all of your skill bar unlocked till 30 which can be a problem.

If you’re level 30, you can run a story mode dungeon (AC)Which is pretty much a free levels worth of XP. You can do that every 10 levels. At level 35 there are exploreable dungeons which require more work to clear, but will also give you around a level per path per day. (It’s closer to 80-90% of a level, but it’s still a ton of XP)

There are also fractals which reward decent XP, and crafting which is pretty much a method of converting spare gold into XP. (Skilled/smart people can make money off of it, but the margins make it barely worth it)

Killing mobs? Not important.

im level 14 .

At level 14 the best ways to get xp are doing hearts, events and personal story. Good luck.

thanks im at home so I might play on it and thanks
