Most efficient way of leveling?

Provin915

hello all,

recently i've picked up eso and it's a lot of fun, i've always loved mmo's but i kinda want to get to the endgame quickly. what is the fastest way to level? i'm doing so many quests and they barely give exp, and i've read quite alot about grinding being better than questing; so is it the best or perhaps a combination? i know if i want to get to the endgame fast, i'll lose out on a big chunk of the content but that's okay, i can always re-do those easy quests.

thank you for reading.

Grinding is at the moment the most effective means of leveling a character, by a very large margin.

I did questing from 1-VR6 and then got fed up. This took me MONTHS. Ended up grinding from VR6 to VR14 in .. two days? three days? I don't even know. I think I used three or four experience potions for VR10+.
It was fun to level fast, but it was an incredibly boring method. It also made me way more gold than the quests would have.
Now I have around 70% of Cadwell's Gold left in case I need the xp in the future

oh that's really nice, where can i find these experience potions and do they work for lvl 1-50? did you have a specific place to farm for the standard levels (1-50)?

thanks for the insight!

The experience scrolls can be bought in the crown store as can the Ring of Mara. The Ring of Mara does require that you "marry" another player and be grouped with them to get the 10% XP bonus.

The experience potions can be bought from guild traders all across Tamriel or from any provisioner with the recipe (the ingredients for the XP potions are not super easy to get, so they can be expensive).

Google ESO Leveling 1 to 50 and you will find the grind spots. They exist in Silver and Gold zones too.

As for these exp potions, you need to collect a multipart recipe (7 parts) and find Perfect Roe from Fishing (rare drop from filleting the fish) to make it. Or you can buy the potions (about 4K gold on the PC, console will be higher).
