Rewarded EXP from quests need to be buffed

I was doing main quests on my maxed character Lv. 50 (CP 660) and completed the 3rd (?) quest and noticed I got a measly 18.7k experience.

That's TWO add pulls in Spellscar, Craglorn, that takes about 30 seconds to kill.

The quest took about 3-4 minutes to do but seriously?

    I finally decided to do Orsinium questline while levelling my Stam warden. Took me about 4 hours and got me from 28 to 35. It then took me 3 hours to get from 35 to 50 (which require more xp) by running in circles in alik'r spamming AOEs

    So 25% less time for 100% more xp. Why is this the quickest way to level up? It's utterly stupid.

    Don't nerf grinding because some people will prefer that. But I have 14 max level characters. Grinding is horrible now. I levelled most of the way on most of the by doing it because it's just way more effecient. It makes no sense that spamming AOEs is the best way to level.

    When I first read this I thought the last word was "nerf" ... guess I'm just so used to seeing it ...
    Anyway yeah a little xtra xp can't hurt! Go for it.

    So don't do quests...

    There are a lot more people that enjoy, I don't know, reading and hearing the quest text than people that just want to go and spam AoEs. Go do your grinding and be happy about it.

    Killing mob after mob will always be faster than turning in quests. People that enjoy doing quests really don't care. I'm going through AD again and listen and choose all the text options. If I go out and try to just grind enemies I fall asleep from the boredom.

    Some quests give 18.7k and another can give over 100k xp. I have no idea which quests give what amount of experience and that is okay for me. A bit of unpredictability is always needed, also while questing.
    What I'd like to see more is a change in amount of gold we find in treasure chests. The same amount all the time no matter the chest is simple or master. Change that first pls.

    Once your in the Champ Ranks, Zone Main Quests give an already multiplied amount of Champ Exp, and if your enlightened its a huge boost.

    Could quest exp be buffed? Sure, but a grind will always be the fasted way to gain experience. But, it also the slowest way to gain skill points once your past L50. And you need 120 to 130 of those to have a character that can do anything in this game effectively.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Quests in general need a revamp on their rewards. *** items, slap on the face gold amounts and not attractive XP numbers. Why so afraid to give away rewards?
