Jake Shelton, member of War Legend, reached level 50 after 17h34 ingame.
Congrats to him

elxdark

I reached lv 15 am I bad?
joke, congratz

Fearce

This is absolutely not possible unless you used some kind of exploit. Hopefully the Devs will look into this.

Charg

You rushed through the content. yay?
Not really.

Zerl

Congratulations of reaching level 50.

Personally, I don't see any long term benefit to rush through content, but each to their own.

n7_deadpool

Congrats to him.
Little bit jealous and a little bit curious as to how they managed that. I'm such a slow leveller.

JasonConstantine

Exploits, plus XP Bonuses. Pretty sad, i been on for a full 24 hours and Im only level 12. Must really suck just skipping everything. Hes gonna be pretty lonely there at 50 with no-one else around. Personally i think a perma-ban would be awesome. This ruins the gaming experience.

Rethink your choices.

Zargorius

Congrats on winning... nothing, cool story bro.

MercyKilling

.....wow. This -has- to be an exploit of some kind. Or a photoshopped screenie.
Either way....level cap in less than a day isn't something to be congratulated.

@n7_deadpool: jealousy is about the last emotion I feel

@Jason: what game experience is being ruined by this? What on Earth are you saying about this calls for a ban?


I assume he was at least in beta, maybe even alpha, so he knew all the ways to 'game' the system, even if they're not outright exploits. There's nothing to admire here, or applaud.

Captainkrunch96

Also, may I ask "how" he reached level 50? In the time it took him to reach level 50, I will probably not even be done with stonefalls.

It cant be done without exploits. The devs must fix these exploits soon.

n7_deadpool

Just depends on how you like to play. I love being a high level, maybe not to that extent, but if he likes it then why not?

because then he complains about no content when he skipped 90% of it, and drives players away.

Schattenfluegel

Well he wasnt alone...according the website there was a rushteam...

I think they pulled him through content ^^ That was weak...

SinBad

joshweps

Yep they had the whole guild involved, they even had low levels harassing other leveling groups, even ones who weren't a threat to world first, soured the whole experience for me.

Wow that makes all the endeavour just look plain stupid and immature. Have any source for that?

kijima

Congratulations, you just won the internets.

SantieClaws

Well I reached level 7 and I am more than happy about it. I'm in this to stop and smell the flowers not race past them and trample them underfoot.

Killum

I think it's kind of sad in a way. I can't understand the mentality behind wanting to max a character so quickly. Maybe they did it just to show that it could be done, however I prefer to Explore the world more, look at the scenery now and then, do the adventure quests and crafting while reading/listening to what the NPC's have to say. I am at level 9 atm, just about to go back in and look around again.

Totally agree with you and this is where I am now too. Rushing through the game before it's even out in the stores is just insane to me. Also, effectively griefing other users in their early access is just unforgivable. They've just as much right to be in game as anyone else and not have their game ruined by numpties "beating" the game in less than 24 hours.

DanMan3395

This is grim news indeed.

Chambered

If it's true, it sounds like a former PTS player abusing a leveling exploit. He certainly didn't follow the intended progression path.

But, even at level 50 - he hasn't hit the 'cap', he's only a third of the way there!

Woenprom

So, leveling that fast without exploits is possible? I am really worried about this.

achimb16_ESO3

I'm neither impressed nor amused.

Woenprom

Ah, it's a guild advert. Rushing powerleveler, surrounded by griefers, nice reputation.

sevcik.miroslaveb17_ESO

Lol, one wonder why are you even playing the game honestly. I understand such rush with second character but with first one? That's just sad.

Iam not going to congrats him.

People should enjoy the game content and not race through it and skipping all.

This is rather sad.

WL_Slashpaf

No exploit here, just grind without slack, and some help from the guild.
Even a GameMaster passed by during the leveling to chat with him about the leveling speed, so I guess we can tell we are 100% legit.
