    Right now, I've found the best place to grind(solo or with others) is the wrothgar public dungeon Rkindaleft. Ive been able to grind faster there more so than any other location.

    Imperial sewers are the best in game
    Rkinldleft is the second best
    Old orsinium is ok but not great
    Crack wood is good ish.. but high chance of getting ganked
    May the Schwartz be with you.

    If you are with Aldmeri Dominion Alikir Desert has three different zombie grind locations.

    I've been there many a times to grind for XP or gear to deconstruct for my 7 master crafters. You can pull up to 12 zombies in one go. All that's needed is elemental blockade, flame pulsar and shooting star and you'll kill the mobs before anybody else can steal your kills. Takes no time before randoms get grumpy and leave. Haha.

    Normal maelstrom arena is reasonable XP too and less dull than the standard grind.

    This man speaketh the truth. Rkindaleft gives the best XP, a perk of buying DLC eh?

    OR!

    Find a campaign where your alliance is domination, and then hit up Cracked Wood cave.

    On my nightblade when I was on vet 11, I was running my dailies and then when I was sent into cracked wood cave for it; I was alone. I had cracked wood cave to myself for three hours so I plugged out my headset from the Xbox controller and I fired up YouTube and I listened to guns and roses for three hours and hit vet 16.

    15%extra XP from a winning campaign, 10%extra XP from ESO plus, 50% XP from a pot.

    This. I did one run on my vet 14 alt and one run of normal maelstrom got me an atomic half way to vet vr15 with an XP potion.

    Just did another run today and my vet 15 to 16 bar went up about a fifth.

    Rkindaleft 24/7 baby :)
    The motifs that drop there will make you a millionaire by the time you reach v16 as an added bonus. Just avoid rush hour, its getting busier and busier over there unfortunately. Still great xp though, easily 1 VR per hour if you pair up with a buddy.

    I know sewers are best but I just can't do the mindless grinding, I know quests are just as mind numbing but have just completed my third run through the entire game and I found best xp in the daily quest hubs in Cyrodiil, doing all if them is a whole vet level. (with an xp pot)

    After reading through this thread, I'm looking forward to trying Rkindaleft.

    In my experience, the sewers are good (trophies!!!) if you have a decent group but not the fastest.
    Avoid sewers if you are grinding solo or in group of two. (Takes too long to run through the hordes, plus you might get ganked)

    Maelstrom, I don't really recommended. It's too slooow.. and you will die A LOT at first. (huge waste of time if you want to lvl asap)

    The best I've found (still risky) is to run Crack wood and Cyrodil dailies (in the same area once your bag is full).
    You still run the risk of getting ganked and the place might be easily crowded in prime time, but you can easily pull 1 level every 60-90 minutes with XP potions/srolls depending on how crowded the place is.

    Old Orsinium has been great also! Managed to get 1.5 level and grinded Meteor from level I to Ice Comet LVL4, in about 2 hours with a XP scroll.

    Check if you done every side quests, there should be enough quests to get you to vet 10 or 11. I am vet 11 and I am still at the starting location in Cadwell's Gold.

    Just curious... Did you complete everything all the cads silver and gold zones? With both my characters I reach V14 before finishing Cads gold and that was when you needed a lot more exp for vet ranks

    I like old orsinium, but only if you're a master clother. You get leather drops line crazy. I had 7k scraps after grinding from 14 to 16 there. About 2.2k rubedo and about 5k Shadow hide. Used the 40 something wax to upgrade the silk i traded for with the leather. Almost instant decked out character.

    I did a mix of normal MA and Rkindaleft when I leveled my sorcerer.

    A normal MA run will give you 40% to 45% of the XP needed for a vet rank, and it takes about 50 minutes to complete.

    Rkindaleft seems to go faster, especially if you can find a PUG, but it's so boring :*

    If you can find a good group, I think the imperial sewers are your best bet.

    If not, then Rkindaleft.

    Choose normal MA if the fun factor is also important for you :)

    IC sewers are actually one of the best....but the trick is to be alone or in a group of 2 (3 at the very most). The XP gets split between the group so the larger the group, the less XP you get. Running alone is the very best way to do it. I grinded my magDK from v1 to v4 in just over 3 hours running a loop in the sewers solo. Also had a ton of trophies and items to decon....and telvar. Banked 3600 stones after getting ganked twice in that time. As long as it is not too busy down there (few gankers and no groups stealing XP gains) the sewers are my favorite grind spot. You just need to find a good loop

    Old Orsinium with a Pot got me from VR14-16 in 2 hours. Just made circles and killing everything that moved. Got a few Orc Motifs also to make it worth while. Not very busy there at all when I was there.

    Really? I tend to think otherwise... It takes forever to solo kill mobs in the sewers as they are so tough compared to elsewhere (Old Orsinium, Rkindaleft, Cyrodill delves, etc.).

    But I have to be honest, I haven't tried soloing there for more than 15-20 mins...

    Side quests are too boring... I'm looking to straight grind as fast as possible. I only did the main quests for Cadwell unless a side quest coincided with the dungeon....

    I'll have to get some xp pots. Do they stack with scrolls?

    No they don't stack.

    You ESO Plus membership and ring of Mara do stack with the scroll or potion, though.

    Agreed 100%. Cant stand solo mobbing IC sewers. Theres places with just as many mobs as IC without having them scaled to v16 which makes it much more annoying. Although these only get you to v14!
