Playing since console launch .. 1015 CP. We didn’t go through the CP grind so I couldn’t answer the first few. When they swapped over from vet ranks we automatically went to whatever max CP was . Just playing gave me more CP than I’ll ever probably stick around to use at the rate this game is going with being unplayable.
Played since summer 2014, and soon I shall reach 800 CP... but then, I do like to take the scenic route, and spend a good deal of my gaming time on pre-50 alts as well...
My main account currently has 1249 CP and reached 1000 CP on 2017/08/12. I started playing on 2015/04/17, so it took me 2.3 years.
Secondary account:
I've tracked the progress of my alt account in a bit more detail. I don't grind, but I do random normals regularly (a random normal a day keeps the Enlightenment at bay).
2016/08/22 - Reached level 10
2016/08/26 - Reached level 50 / CP 10
2016/08/31 - CP 100
2016/09/15 - CP 160
2016/10/28 - CP 261
2017/01/01 - CP 450
2017/01/31 - CP 500 (cap was 561)
2017/04/05 - CP 600 (cap was 600)
2018/01/13 - CP 800 (cap was 690)
2018/07/02 - CP 971 (today)
At this rate, I expect my second account to reach 1000 CP some time in August, before the 2-year anniversary.
Tertiary account:
Because I'm an accountaholic.
2017/12/16 - Reached level 50 / CP 10
2017/12/20 - CP 111 (mostly from just burning off the initial enlightenment)
I don't have a 1000cp but I do have a 750cp and a 780cp.
I say each to their own when leveling, if you want to take it easy its cool. If you are like me I prefer to level to existing cap then take it easy.
I leveled 0 to 710 in just over four months before the cap was increased to 750. To others they can do it faster.
In case anyone is interested...
1-50 dolmens
I prefer doing the three in Auridon,they pop every 8-10mins and you can do the middle and top and get back down to the bottom one for it starting. I prefer Auridon over Alik'r Desert Dolmens because even though they seem faster in Alik'r you will get more XP from the Auridon ones because of less players.
Dolmens are good for leveling your crafting as well. when you get to 50 deconstructing more xp from doing writs.
Daily Undaunted, Public Dungeons and Dolmens (mage and fighters guild daily quests) to 750cp wearing training gear (every piece/weapon) and taking xp pots and having a ESO + account. You also want to focus on using AOE's, the more you hit the more you get xp for.
Always have a xp buff/pot active when handing in quests.
Focus on events when you get the XP buff as well. Make a target, when things were slow I always aimed for around 5 levels a day non event and event time it would be more.
In non events i would play for just a couple of hours a day, if you have a structure it is surprising how fast you can do things in game.
Like I said there are ways to level faster but hope it helps anyone interested leveling to cap.
I'm at 680...been playing for a few years. I just don't do the grinding to get there fast because it's boring to me. I mostly PvP and I also take some long breaks when it starts to get boring.
They are the proverbial unicorns of ESO. There are a few players with over 1600 CP; but their numbers are very small and they typically have been playing since PC launch in March 2014. When the CP system was first implemented, each new CP required a flat 400K XP, so it was easy to rack up multiple CPs every day. I have been playing since PC launch and I have “only” 1403 CP. The last time I checked (which was a couple of months ago), each new CP required about 1.2 million XP. I gain a new CP every 1.5 - 2 days roughly.
I started Thanksgiving 2016. Hit CP 160 during the New Life Festival at the end of that year. Hit my first CP cap around HotR last year. And right now, after a little over a year and a half of playing I am at 902 CP. Shouldn't be much longer until I hit 1000.
Been playing since PC launch. Leveling has changed several times since then, so my experience isn't a reliable yard stick. I was VR 9 when Imperial City droped, VR 16 some time after. I caught up to the CP cap during the first Witches Festival. I'm in the 800s currently.
I've never had less than 140CP. I earned to around 200, back before CP XP was re-balanced. The costs for CP have changed nine times since they were added, and I've been playing for most of those.
In fact, to add some persepctive, how fast did it take you to reach
160
250
500
and 1000CP?
not by *trying*!

Insight to Agree to Awesome Ratio = 1:6.04:2.76 as of 1/25/2019
Compared to people that I've ignored = I am 18% more insightful, 20% less agreeable, and 88% more awesome.
I'm closing in on 1000, (around 980 something atm). I've taken breaks for months at a time too. Once your at cap, there's no reason to grind them. So what was the point of this thread? If the cap is 750, who cares what it takes to get to 1k. You can't use them anyway ROFL.
