Default Exp speed

I’m really interested in how fast various types of leveling are at different levels. I’m seeing about 1 yellow per hour soloing at 20. Grouping around 12 I was getting about half that in blackburrow. Would love to hear from people how fast they’re able to level in various situations if only to plan out my future and strategy.

Depends on which zone you're in, because some low level dungeons and zones like HHK have very unclassic ZEMs from the PoP era.

In my limited/humble experience leveling on green, many classes' soloing exp rates will be brutally slow compared to a decent group. Get as many fangs as you can off those blackburrow gnolls for Captain Tillin in Qeynos - they are VERY good EXP in the early and mid teens.

Should try to at least aim for 1ish hour per orange, all the way to 50 (excluding hell).

Sol A UGuk / HHK might get you exp much faster, but you’re also at the whim of your group’s performance and whether or not there is any asshatery going on in the zone.

5 hours per level is pretty much the norm till you hit hell levels.
3 hours or less per level and you're doing great.

Oh sorry, level 20 now...even solo, you could expect at least 2 yellow exp an hour in Upper Guk, possibly 3 in a duo or trio. Exp gains in Upper Guk, Highkeep, and Befallen are almost or actually literally double that of most zones in the game.

An ungodly amount of gnoll fangs would also work. Tillin might run out of breath blowing his horn...

Reds take forever to kill.

I dont think 1 an hour is doable for most classes outside of druids who can quad or maybe some good enchanters?
