Some people hit max 20 within 24 hours. Dolmen farming or Public Dungeons trash are the best exp, bosses actually don't give that much but are good for gear. Use 150% scroll or ambrosia and all training gear helps too, Heartland Conqueror does affect training weapons.

I did not do this, it would bore the crap out of me.

Alrighty, thank you so much!

I do have shows to catch up (entirety of the Handmaid's Tale season 4) so I do have something to do.

I would suggest avoiding the Alik'r Dolmen trains unless you have trouble soloing dolmens.

You will miss out on a lot of kill XP due to the large number of people making it take far longer than it needs to.

After I did everything in Blackwood story wise and completing the zone guide and the daily guild quests for leveling the guild lines and rapport, using a 50% XP crown scroll the whole time, I got Mirri to level 15 and Bastian to just under level 14.

Been casually leveling them since the 2nd day of the chapter release finished leveling them both yesterday.

With Golded out training armor and the Heartland set that boosts the trait of the weapon by 100% I was getting 95% kill XP add a 100% XP pot, I ran the dolmens in Deshan for the last 6 or so levels on each took me about 3 hrs each to finish there leveling.

Was averaging about 8K of the companion kill XP per dolmen(compared to the 1-2K per dolmen in the Aliki'r when its busy) with either just me or a handful of people, always got to get credit for killing the boss so had a much higher chance of getting companion gear think for me it was dropping around 8 pieces of companion gear per hour, got a few purple rings/necklaces of mothers sorrow to sell as well.

I would guess if you used my way for finishing off there leveling from the start maybe around 12 hrs each at most purely leveling from 1 - 20, probably nearly double that if you joined the Alik'r Dolmen train instead.

That said you won't level the guild skill lines without doing the solo daily quests for the fighters/mages/undaunted if you have multiple characters you can do it faster but I would recommend focusing on leveling the guild skill lines first before switching to purely level grinding them, your going to have to do it anyway.

I want know how you got 8k. I was soloing dolmen and got 1.5k kill xp so something doesn't add up here.

More people showed up on occasion usually 3 at most more enemies spawned I was faster at killing them or at least getting a hit in, also had the companion set up as a DPS. Averaged 3 - 6 K from the kills and about 1 - 2 K from the final pinion each time. Full gold training gear with the Heartland crafted set they just added 95% kill XP per enemy another 10% from ESO+ and a 100% XP pot both me and my companion killing everything that moved only activating the pinions once everything was dead.

Those are what the number said on my screen as I was doing it killing non stop for the most part the xp counter only dropped off while the boss spawned.

There are several factors.

Like: are you enlightened? (gaining XP at increased rate).
Do you have a different level?

On my cp 1400 I get more than 1k xp killing an enemy, while my below level 50 toons had far lower numbers. The xp gain is connected to your (cp) level.
The higher you rank up, the more xp you need to get the next cp, but also get more xp for kills.
But I have no table showing exact numbers, it is just something I realized somewhen during gameplay.


Another issue is that there are far less daedra soloing a dolmen than doing it with other players around.
