What's the fastest way to level up a new character?
was going to make a new character and wanted to find out the fastest way to level up a character to level 20
-
Did anyone else get a rune thing that leveled them to 26 from the postmaster? I had no idea why I got that
-
Play every story mission on the hardest setting you can mange while picking up all the bounties as you go, all the bounties you get will be relevant to the mission or planet you've just unlocked can get 20 in 6-8 hours this way

3 RepliesPatrol/public event/bounties Patrol, while farming public events, and doing bounties (once at lvl4). Each patrol worth 250xp, VIP worth 500xp, public event worth 750xp. Once at level 10, you'll be bored, so breeze through story and strikes. Do hard difficulty until the extra time outweighs the benefit. If you start story at level 10, itll be much faster, and you'll end right at lvl 20.
-
1 ReplyStory and bounties at the same time. Tiger strikes once you finish the story.
-
I still haven't completed the final storyline mission on my lvl27 Warlock or the last 2 or 3 on my lvl26 hunter. I'd be glad to help you thru those if you'd like. PSN=BDaddy1968. It sucks when you solo the once let alone 3 times.
-
Play all the story missions on hard an do every vanguard bounty you can. I hit level 20 in less than 10 hours with my hunter and still had a few story missions left to do.

1 ReplyEdited by Fox: 10/31/2014 9:25:34 PMBoth are good so long as you're picking up corresponding bounties while doing them. However, beating the story is a little faster. Often times you'll level up with each mission when on hard difficulty. Crucible with bounties can be pretty fast too though. Already having level 20 armor available is a [i]huge[/i] plus as well.
-
try doing what you did with the first character.
-
I dont see many people recommending the crucible. When i made my very first character i played a lot of crucible in the beginning. I feel as though it leveled me up really quick, a lot quicker than the story is on my second character. I may be mistaken though

Edited by kellygreen45: 10/31/2014 9:07:12 PMJust play through the stories missions and strikes again. That should get you to level 18...and then patrol/bountypub events your way to level 20. Took 12 hours. She now sits at level 27 having inherited my primary warlocks' extra armor...with a new set of boots thrown in. This weekend she'll be running bounties and pub events trying to get shards and helping to level up the flood of new weapons I've gotten. That should help get her to level 28, and round out her skill tree. So she'll be ready for the Nightfall and Raid next week.

Doing bounties while doing story. Also do the strikes. You get bonus XP first run

2 RepliesI will run you thru..add me psn# SmashEm666

Thanks for the feedback and advice, appreciate it!
-
4 RepliesFastest is story on hard difficulty. Maybe play with a friend on hard so you can get done faster to. Also do any available bounties. My warlock was lvl 20 before I even finished the moon missions from doing this.
-
Grind the story on hard while doing vanguard bounties, then play crucible to do those bounties. Shouldn't take you more than 6-8 hours to hit 20
-
1 ReplyAll of those choices. Bounties just push you to level through the 2 main avenues of progression.
-
Should be all the above.
-
Stories bounties, skirmish doesn't matter if you win or lose you just want the xp
-
Do the story on easy because the exp boost for doing it on heroic is not worth the extra time is takes.
-
Have a high lvl run you through everything
-
thanks for the advice! :)
-
Just did bounties and story on my hunter. Got to level 20 by the second Venus mission.
-
Story and bounties as much as possible
