I started playing about 6 weeks ago and am totally loving it. It’s got fresh takes on so many stale MMO concepts and the whole leveling experience is really fun—more fun than in any game I’ve ever played. I will clarify one thing: earlier someone said your first dungeon unlocks at level 80 (Ascalonian Catacombs). That was a typo. He meant level 30. At that level the “story mode” opens up, which adds to your personal story (so good idea to be up to date on that). 5 levels after each dungeon’s story mode opens up, the “explorable mode” opens up, which significantly ups the difficulty level further. That’s where you generally find level 80’s doing the speed runs, but you can sometimes get into those at low level. Dungeons give great exp and up the difficulty level compared to open world content. But in reality you should just do some of everything leveling up so you get to experience everything the game has to offer.

Oh, and be sure to farm all of the resources you see! It’s decent exp and you’ll want to keep those resources for when you decide to start crafting.
