Any tips on how to get to 50 asap? I'm trying to get a templar healer leveled for my guild and I'm lucky to get 3 or 4 levels a day. I've tried questing, I've tried just going after delves and skyshards while ignoring quests, I've tried xp potions (which imo just ended up being a waste of gold), nothing seems to have any significant impact on how fast I level up.

    Skyreach in Craglorn. Pop the new XP pots and you can max a character in 2 hours is paired with one other. That would probably be 4 hours without the XP Pot. Full training would probably add a lot.

    Fast leveling isn't a myth, but it is true there is more than just getting to level 50 when fully speccing a new character.

    If you have a partner, Skyreach catecombs grinding is fastest.

    If you are by yourself, I always grind at Motalion Necropolice in Alikir Desert.
    Make PC NA raiding great again!

    Doing a mixture of dolmens, delves, killing random groups of npc's, along with the odd quest, because I'm in the same boat. The same cadwell quests, main story etc, does become a chore after close to 3 years of play, over multiple characters.

    Shows where it is and kinda explains it. Oh, even is you are not farming it with someone, be grouped with someone to regroup afterwards and that should reset the instance.

    If you really want to level fast, just get somebody to craft full purple training gear (80-88% XP bonus) for you, buy psijic ambrosia (50% XP bonus) or buy major XP scroll / mythic ambrosia (150% XP bonus), group with one other person (10% XP bonus) and grind in cracked wood cave (if your faction has a lot of enemy keeps you get up to +11% XP bonus) or similar spot. Another 10% XP bonus if you are ESO Plus member. You can go from 10 to 50 in a few hours.

    Otherwise, tbh I find there is not really any need to grind in this game anymore. These days you can get to 50 in a week or two just playing the game normally in PVP or whatever you enjoy doing. It used to take 6 to 8 months leveling up to veteran ranks in PVP.

    1. Make one of every class you might eventually want to level- just use them as mules in the meantime and give them a little gold - park them near a stable. Each day login each one and just train the mount. Then when you get around to actually leveling the alt, the mount will at least be somewhat upgraded.

    2. On the alt you want to level, just get to level 10 - run around the first zone or two grabbing skyshards, should do the trick.
    craft all lvl 10 purple training gear. grab a few xp potions. At lvl 10 go into Cyrodiil and do the tutorial quest for 2 free skill points. Go grab all the skyshards in the first zone or two of your faction.

    3. drink your potions and have a friend or guildmate with a good AoE class- (magsorc, stamsorc, magdk, magplar, etc...) - run you through Skyreach Catacombs just aggroing and AoEing down all the trash mobs. This will get you from 10-50 in roughly 2-4 hours, depending on how fast your friend is.

    4. Now go back to your faction areas and just grab all skyshards and faction quests for each zone.

    You'll have a max level toon with plenty of skill points in like roughly 10-15 hours, all in, this way.
    Then you'll just need to work on fighters guild/ mages guild/ undaunted.

    I could level another toon easy and it would be fun! but if I had to go hunt down books to get lvl 10 in the mages guild one more time I'd blow my brains out.

    leveling 50 is the easy part.

    thats why I hate levling alts

    ^This.^

    In my opinion, getting a new character to Level 50 is the easy part.

    Getting a new character enough skill points for end game activities is the hard part.

    That means most (if not all) skyshards, zone main quests, and group dungeons ... to accumulate said skill points.

    would be pretty dope if skyshards were shared account wide, and became active on new alts at level 50...

    Healers don't need meteor or FG skill lines and undaunted is pretty meh for them given they mostly wear 7 light such as running both spc and sanctuary or worm etc.

    OP best way to do it is use all training gear and pots and run random dailies on normal. You'll rinse it up, get the skill points at the same time. Grinding sky reach leaves you needed tons of skill points and you'll only end up running them anyway. It's kind of counter productive for a healer and you won't have half your required skills on for it.

    Of all the grinds including Auridon dolmens and delve grinds posted on Youtube,

    I found the Greenshade grinding the fastest. A lot of grinding guides on Youtube only seems suitable for max level characters grinding CP rather than leveling from 1-50. Get purple training gear, potion, crown exp scroll, and go to Rootwater Grove. Get the quest there, activate 2 out of 3 shrines, and when you get close to enemies in the area, the quest summons 2 imps around them and takes out half of their health at the same time.

    Automatically, you have four, instead of two enemies, to kill for exp. Plus, it's a lot easier cause the other hp on the other two mobs are halved instantly the moment you approach them. Sure, there are many other places to grind, but most of other grind spots seem to require better gear/skill level to efficiently farm without dying or having to heal in between the mobs.

    It's always really easy to find grind spots and just grind away to 50 in 6-8 hours, but I've found that the best way to make a level 50 character useful is to:
    1) Collect every Lore Book and Skyshard in every zone.
    2) Do the main questlines in every zone.
    3) Complete all of the Public Dungeons and their group events in every zone.
    4) Destroy every Dolmen in each zone.
    It won't level you to 50 the fastest, but it will get you a pretty high ranking in Fighter's Guild, Mage's Guild, and a healthy amount of skill points by the time you reach 50.

    Meteor is nice on a healer on your main healing bar just for the recovery/ mag from Mages guild passives. Certainly not necessary - just a nice little touch.

    Warhorn is your primary ulti though.

    Everybody should max Mages Guild for might of the guild passive. And even if you don't use any Fighter's guild abilities, the extra ultimate from killing undead is very handy

    Just enjoy the game. Don't worry about leveling to 50 asap. Once you it 50 any way youll sit back and think "Now i need Cp 160" and then after that its be Cp 600. And the grind for that is real.

    Join those Dolemn groups that constantly run around, you end up leveling pretty fast and you get lots of good loot. Also Ambrosia leveling potions FTW
    As a casual player I was satisfied that at one point I had a char max level and near max crafting with almost all motifs and I pretty much lost interest. Then ESO discovered DLC's and now my main is just a wanabe and I am happily pulled back into the game.
