I'm doing it again right now. I leveled my first alt after a year. It was just too unbearable to even think about leveling another v14. I did it though. It took about 7 days of full out grind. This new toon is v8, he was 27 this past Sunday. It's possible to get it done in under a week.

That being said it's a terrible terrible grind. Mind numbing boring. Sell v 14s? Sell v ranks to players who already have a v14? Get rid of vet ranks like they said they would a year ago?

My question is what are all the people who are "grinding" actually grinding to?

It the process isn't fun, what makes anyone think that it's magically going to be different once you hit some arbitrary level/rank?

Grind for CP; it's the new end game.

I really don't care if someone wishes to purchase a V14 character boost. They'll have no CPs, no Alliance rank, no costumes, a horse worthy of glue and lack gear. So long as there are no boosts for these deficiencies, I'll be cool with insta-V14s.

Hell, the reason to grind an alt to v14 is to increase your CP count for your main - 13m XP is what 130 CP? To make your main better at PVP or running trials.

No. 13 mil XP will net you 33CP unless you really do it all when enlightened for a period of 130 days. If you really want CP it's much better to just grind it with your main.

Thanks for clarifying that.

Seems they are adding horse training to the store, so everything else to boost an instant-V14 would probably find it's way there, also. Buy V-14, Buy horse training, buy CP, buy gear (Gold) - then all you need is for alliance rank to be cross-character. GtG.

Yes . I will only buy stuff when they get to the buy bot to play instead of you stage.
