Leveling After Reaching 50

Post » Thu Feb 20, 2014 11:42 am

When a player reaches Level 50, the next level after that is Veteran Rank 1, correct? Or is it something else?

What comes after Veteran Rank 1? Veteran Rank 2 or Veteran Rank 1 Level 2 (on the way to 50 which is followed by Veteran Rank2)?

Also, what is the condition for entering another alliance's PvE zone? Is it the completion of quests in all five of each alliance's zone or reaching level 50/Veteran 1?

Yeah. I am just wondering if there are 0 or 50 levels between each Veteran rank.

Think latest said is lvl 50 and that they have not specified that you have to finish the main quest.

1? Not sure what you mean, but each rank is a level, so you start at VR1 after L50 then go through to VR10, taking 10 levels all up to get there.

I wonder what happens to those veteran ranks when a new level cap is introduced. Do they translate to actual levels or do they stay separate I wonder?

They'll probably stay separate, and cap increases will just add to Veteran Rank level cap (so end up with VR20 aka L70).

hes asking if you have to level all over again the 1-50 like the first time between each Veteran level. Example you level 1-50, 50 total levels, begin your veteran levels, for VR1 you level 1-50 again making it a total of 100 levels, but instead of reaching level 100 you make VR1. 150 total levels for VR2 ect all the way to VR10

Veteran points are earned doing PvP or heroic level dungeons, assume raids also counts.

We don't know how easy the are to level up, basically its the endgame grind, if might be increased in content updates.

So basically the game will start with 60 character levels. Reaching VR1 by the end of your alliance's zone should not be a problem. The repeatable Cyrodiil quests and the other two alliance zones should make it possible to reach VR10 (and beyond), even if it becomes very challenging or time consuming during those last 10-20 levels.

I would not be surprised if we see VR1 (or higher) players before the five day early access period is over.

I've heard several people say this. Kind of worrisome really, I would think they would tweak xp requirements to make it take longer, and use well rested benefits to make up the difference to the casual player. Hitting level cap within the first month should be really tough to do with a reasonable xp per level requirement.

I wouldn't worry, because what you are hearing is people making wild guesses :wink:

Mind you, every game on release has some folks who zip to the cap, but since they are not representative of the vast majority of players (even "hardcoe" players), it is not something to worry about :tongue: I just ignore em, myself. They've made a metagame of the race to the finish, so they are playing a different game than everybody else is.

150 hours to level cap for the normal player is what people playing the longterm beta have been saying... longer for slow players, shorter for very fast players. I'm a slow player and happy about it, though I guess having played a lot of beta and read every scrap of info might (sadly) speed things up a bit for me :wink: Won't be all guesswork.

As to how long it will take to get to V10, there's less reliable info about that, but people have definitely done it in long term beta.

150 hours sounds good. That'll take me about 15 weeks or so given my current schedule. I did the rush to level cap thing in WoW, took me about 11 days on the PvP server. Not wanting to do that ever again.
