    Depends on how you play. Crappy AP gains will cost you many hours. Good ones fewer. The gold isn't that impressive.

    50k AP per hour is pretty good for sustained play over long periods.

    So roughly 700 hours. More if you make better-than-average AP, less if you don't.

    The amount of AP awarded for player kills has increased since launch, but still to earn 35m AP during that short time period you are planning would require average 84k/hour. Usually I earn around 20-30k/hr, perhaps a bit more when ganking.

    I think there will be some sort of double AP week coming up soon, though, good luck

    Once upon a time there was a week when people was able to get 30 milions AP without even touching enemies. Bleakers fliping during 2x AP event :smiley:
    It's no longer possible but still You'll be able to get AP faster during event that starts I think in more then a week from now and will provide 2x AP.

    This wasn't really an issue on PC/NA. Like not really at all. The poster is PC/NA, so don't get his hopes up :p

    To the OP:
    Took me about a year to get to General.
    Double AP week is coming, so you might want to spend a ton of time in Cyrodiil for that, it'll help you :#

    General's Gold is alright. Transliminal Violet, the dye you receive for killing Molag Bal in the IC sewer center, is a better gold when used on metal, imo.

    Palatine White and Legate Black are the two Alliance Rank dyes that you should really have your eye on. Those still take a lot of time to get, but come sooner. They're worth it.

    Legate black is the best alliance war dye color, for gold use transliminal violet or akatosh scales gold. Sulfur pools yellow actually looks pretty good on light armor too.

    Transliminal violet dyes metal a bright and reflective yellow-gold, and cloth a bright although ugly (imo) blue violet.

    Usually only the first 1-3 players on the leaderboards of 30 day-campaigns have more than 10 million AP, so if you earn 35M in 3 months you already have to play a lot. Getting to that amount in 70 days is hardly possible without exploiting or playing 20 hours a day.

    Short answer is DKs likely won't be seeing a ton of changes before we go live; this class is still quite powerful (as it should be being a tank), even after some of the adjustments we've made to other classes and abilities.

    DK IS NOT JUST A TANK CLASS. #PLAYTHEWAYYOUWANT
