I hear it's faster in BGs if you have a group of friends that can run with you, though I've never tried it myself. I usually level vigor/caltrops after unlocking weapon swapping, and having a few speed lessons in my mount, and what I do is just finding a group, grabbing all the repeatable quests for capturing keeps, etc., and then just tagging along with them. I leveled a new stam toon the other day, and it took me about three hours in Cyrodiil for two days to get vigor and caltrops. Make sure to play near or on prime-time to have more groups online, and to buy lots of equipment, as the AP from sieging/repairing does add up.
