Hey guys i wanna share, i tested some things on PTS and wanna to say you can already note for yourself on live servers all good spots in Cadwell Gold/silver zones with nice dencity of mobs, because in DB all this mobs will be CP40-150(silver) or CP160(gold), so let be prepared!
right now the best grind is IC, but the mobs are pretty hard there + alot gankers
top 2 is Cracked wood cave, but the mobs is vr14/CP140 here + gankers
top 3 is Old Orsinium and Rkindaleft
so, after May 31 there will be ALOT more options! say no more to crowded grind spots, because you will get alot more places to grind for
some tests, for CP300(30% of EXP, because of patchnotes) unbuffed hero on PTS:
1) regular CP140 mob in CWC - 1324 exp
2) regular mob CP40-160 in all gold/silver locations + Gold Coast/wrothgar/hews bane - 1656
the thing is no matter what mob you killed(CP300 hero) in Gold/silver zones
CP40 or CP160 - you will get the same amount of exp
3) Craglorn CP110 regular mob - 204
4) IC:
Dremora Morikun/scamp/regular mob - 1904
Xivkyn banelord/bigger mobs - 3808

What? Every mob in every Cadwell silver/gold zone will be 160 cp? That's good news if true.
Also if true then there's a quest in Alikr iirc where there's groups of zombies all over the place that respawn pretty fast...I don't grind but it seems like a good spot for you grinders.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭why would anyone need a "grind-spot" if all silver and gold and PvP zones are cap NPCs?
-Are you sure Silver zones are CP160 because the article and two patches ago on PTS, that wasn't the case. (or are you saying the exp awarded is the same)?-PC (PTS)/Xbox One: NewBlacksmurf

Have they fixed the issue where Mobs are giving full exp on the PTS yet? From what I understand, they are supposed to make it so that if you have 210 CPs or more, you are only going to get 33% of the Exp on CP160 mobs. The Exp amounts your stating look like similar to the stock amounts I see on the Live game now.
Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

✭I hope the blobs of grinders die, and spread out to different locations. It's pretty annoying to get quests or achievements done in those areas. This way the grinders don't have to compete with eachother either, it's a win/win for the whole community.
Btw. is Imperial City still giving good xp? It is my favorite location to hang out alone..

All gold zones being 160 is amazing for grinding!1 -
STEVIL✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭Silver starts at 40cp and the last silver is supposed to also be 160cp.
So 6 zones plus intro island (s) for gold.

Aerius_Sygale✭✭✭✭Guys, if you're in the 4th or 5th zones of Silver, you are -supposed- to still get 100% XP at CP 160+, in an article about it the XP calculation is based off of the equipment tiers, so it won't account for any CP past 160 in that respect, you'll never be so that every enemy in the game only gives you 30% XP. >.>PS4/PS5, NA | PSN: AeriusSygale | Alliance War Rank 50 (Grand Overlord Grade 2) | CP: 2940+0
