Lvl 19. Too much going on to play constantly, and when i play im like a kid in a candy store. Im distracted by everything, and just looking at the artwork.
There isn't a "right" or "wrong" way to play, if you want to use a screwdriver to put nails into wood, have at it, simply don't complain when the guy next to you with the hammer is doing it much better and easier. - Allein "Graphics are often supplied by Engines that (some) MMORPG's are built in" - Spuffyre
Elementalist level 9, haven't played for any long lengths. Also trying to learn everything about the game, didn't play in any betas or anything. Will probably try another class out soon.
I took the weekend off, doesn't mean I only played over the weekend. I actually cleared my schedule from Friday at head start till last night and have pretty much done nothing but play. I would also say easily 5-6 levels of that is just from crafting as I am the guilds main armor/weaponsmith.
Despite me being that high level, I am only 17% of the way through completing all of the map and am only rank 2 in PvP. I still have tons of content left to go.
I'm a level 25 Guardian. If you craft you will level at just about the right pace imho. Gathering minerals is my thing right now and it involves exploring, as you explore you run into events! It's a perfect scenario.
Death is nothing to us, since when we are, Death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.

Seing as how gear matters very little in comparison to other games, there is scaling in different forms and the leveling is rather quick, why would you want to just have one main class? You don't have to choose a main, play multiple, just like we play multiple characters in games such as League of Legends.
This is one of my busiest times at work, so I have 5 weeks of 80+ hours per week. Sadly, that isn't leaving much time outside of the headstart weekend to play...

Any game that you can hit lvl cap or even 42 in one weekend is not for me. That's just stupid! I know I lvl slowly but why do that especially with a new game? Hell I have been playing TERA since launch and am only 35 and loving the combat and amazing graphics as well as a really great community.
It's funny, I don't think I could hit 42 if I played all day for a week. I think some people have found some quick way to lvl because it seems fairly appropriate when you are playing the game. Maybe if you just go to DE after DE and don't do some vista/point of interest finding.
I don't know, man. I hit 50 last night before logging and I have done nothing to try to level efficiently. The zone I was in when I hit 50? Queensdale, the human starting zone. I went there solely because I wanted to be in that environment, which I hadn't visited on that character yet. I did maybe 5 heart quests just because, helped out a little in every event I came across, and explored every waypoint, POI and vista. An hour later, I had gone from mid 48 to just over 50. (Some of my dailies had reset too, so they were achieved over that time.)
Basically, I've been driven entirely by exploration first and foremost. I just run around seeing things I want to see with the curiosity of a child. As a happy consequence, I'm always surprised to learn I leveled up.
I've also fully explored 4 of the major cities and walked all they way from Divinity's Reach to Ebonhawk on foot because I heard about the great city there and wanted to approach it on foot first rather than just boringly take the Asura Gate there.
Got to 23 over the weekend and have been kinda goofing off since. It's really nice to finally have a game where you don't immediately feel a need to get to max level as soon as you start playing.
13, and it's kind of depressing. Don't have a lot of time to play, and most of the time I'm scouring the map for some indication of where to go next. Next heart I can actually see on the map is level 15. Everything else in queensdale is done. Used all my crafting mats up as well, and I salvage everything.
I'm not afraid to tell trolls what they [need] to hear, even if that means for me to have an forced absence afterwards.

Lvl 16, 12, 2, 1 and 1. I'm trying out the classes before I decide on a main, loving the engineer, loving how the necromancer has improved since the betas (in my eyes anyway), loved what I played of the Mesmer during betas, same is true for guardian and ranger. It's so very, very hard to make a decision. Most of my guild settled on a main pretty quick, I'm lagging behind but it really doesn't matter. Downscaling means they can come back and join me for group content while still being rewarded and the lack of a monthly fee is making me much more relaxed about playing, no sub fee hanging over me means I don't have to worry about how I'm using my time, just relax and enjoy, exactly how a game should feel.

What the f am I doing wrong?
Look for other entry points to the zone you're in from lower level areas. That will have the lower level content. So you can have lower level content on one side of the map and the opposite side pending on the entry points the zone has.
Glengarren Fields (sp?) is a perfect example of this.

When I want a single-player story, I'll play a single-player game. When I play an MMO, I want a massively multiplayer world.

Still not completely sure what class to go with. :$
Death is nothing to us, since when we are, Death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.
61 atm, very decent game, but has many issues that will surface in about 2-3 weeks I guess.
Definitely worth buying, 9/10.

I am sneaking in whenever I can though.
