/sigh

It's an mmo lvling is a huge part of it. 1-55 takes a few weeks at best if you are casual, maybe a few days if you play 18 hours a day. PL is such a fun game and pvping and twinking are good ways to have fun between lvling. If you have any questions add me in game

[Chickdigcookies]

hmm, i think i forgot to mention my mage is lvl 50...

and who the hell plays 18 hours a day?

[noneo]

Well, using my calculator I made here - http://www.spacetimestudios.com/showthread.php?21735-Stat-Calculator-Grind-to-56!

From level one, you would need 173748 xp.

If you earn, lets say an average of 120 base xp per round:

Xp Per Run (with 2X Pot): 240
Xp Per Run (with 2X Pot): 360

Total number of runs would be:
with No Elixir: 1447.9
2x Elixer: 723.95
3x Elixer: 482.63

Hours of Grinding:
No Elixir: 84.46
2x Elixer: 42.23
3x Elixer: 28.15

Cost of Using Elixer:
x2 elixir
Each (gold): 1500
Each (Plat): 3
Total Gold: $1,085,925.00
Total Plat: 2172

Gold (each): 6000
Plat (Each): 10
Cost gold: $2,895,800
Cost Plat: 4827

Specific enough for you? :p

EDIT: Forgot to mention that I put each round at 3.5 minutes per run.

Oh how I love your obsessive data collecting/crunching ;)

[Lesrider]

*faints*

Edit: wait, I see two diff sets of numbers up there. The quoted data is diff than the original.

[RedRyder]

I don't remember spending 2 mil getting from 50-55... If you did to 56, I think you should knock that part off cause I doubt holybean cares for hitting the elite Lv 56 cap. I sure as hell don't lol

If that's what you prefer, or you can just run with us.

[Jinlac]

It took me 4 days from 0-50 (no pots) and 3 days from 50-55 (more pots every lvl) but then again, i had no live at that time, all my friends were skiing :D

Hola, Cdc! Farming isn't for cliques the way it used to be. These groups consist of all types and mostly clear. They skip a few side corridors, but that's usually fewer than ten mobs. Some people skip some mini-bosses, but that is absurd in a level 51 farming group when even the oranges are worth 8 to 10 K of gold.

Also, don't think about 55. Think about 51 and getting new gear, then 53 to use improved gear, then think about 55. It takes a long time, about a month, or two weeks if you play a lot, or one week if you do nothing else, so don't think about it and just run for fun.

At this point I think he's just mocking us lol. He wasn't like this, so between making a quitting thread, but staying about a month anyway, then actually leaving, to sorta coming back somethin must've happened I guess? Seems like he's just trolling to me.

[Snakespeare]

I know him fairly well and he doesn't troll. You're just kiddng right? :)

Miguel started a business and it has taken a huge amount of his time. Quitting playing is only half the distraction he had to let go of, the other half was to quit the chatbox. I know from experience that the chatbox can suck away hours of your productivity, and anyone who wants to be an entrepreneur has to stay away from chat, addicting though it may be.

Ahh sorry it just kinda seemed that way to me :( this coupled with the PL. Shield thread

[Frenzyn]

Idk, im still a lvl 50 and i joined around... 3 weeks-2 months ago? not really sure. around that.
But, when i started playing my fingers got tired the first week, lol... idk why but i got use to it.. :P
Because, when i got an iphone that was the first game i got. :) love it tho

[Artemis]

I got to level 40 in a day. But i was powerleveled and used elixers but not alot of elixers.

[JaytB]

Uhmmm... Not really proud about it, but I got so obsessed to get to lvl 55 with my 3rd char, that I spend an entire (very looooong) day during a weekend to get from 1-55, with help of my gf. I used 6k pots only. I'm a lucky guy with a gf that enjoys PL as much as I do ;) When we were finished we were like mindless zombies though, but it's possible.

Edit: I just double checked with my gf to see how many hours play time it took us. It was less than 11hours (with hardly any breaks).
