Where do i grind now?

I did all the quests, all the ones that wern't bugged anyway, and now i'm 48, and halfway to 49, is grinding worth it? I never seen my bar move. But it looks like i have no option. Can't leave until i hit 50 apprently.

    Just look for the bot teams, there are a groups of them in every map past L25 (wish there was a way to remove them)

     

    They are going between groups of mobs that re-spawn every 15 seconds. Its sad, but you can see they are getting a levels fast and only hitting mobs. There was a few on them in a L45 area and they got to L50 within 2 hrs. (no quests)

    I guess if you hit the same mobs as them, you will get the same exp (tagging a mob = exp)

    I've had similar plights in lower zones.  If you can't leave magically then I guess you'll grind.

     

    The other problem was in starter zones / islands.  I gave up.  It's a well tested mechanic.

    Thanks for the quick replys, tried to ask on the offical forums, but wanted an 'invitation code'? The hell is that?

    The code that you got during beta activation.

    However no such thing exists for new customers. Official forums are a mess.

    grinding is much faster than questing. i went from 35-45 today in about 6 hours. 25-35 yesterday in about the same.

    I'm happy that I'm leveling three characters at my own pace.  Well, I was before ZOS kicked me out because my physical box containing my registration code hasn't arrived yet.  None of them are past level 10.  I bet there are people who have multiple 50's already.  I'll be laughing my ass off when people come here complaining about a lack of content because they rushed through the entire game.

    I got that code, but I think I'm locked out because I haven't entered my registration code, because I haven't gotten the box yet.  Or maybe not, who knows.  I know that I can access my account via the ES website, but I can't access the forums on the same ES website.  lol?

    Thats Evil, or maybe not..  because there is allways people that want to level fast..So i would say, just let them, as long as its not killing the fun of other players i guess its okay-

     

    Personally i play these games just to have fun. And questing and story immersion is my kind of fun... having to grind, is not fun, and there should be enough story based content ingame to allow me to get to max level withouth grinding..  and thats what this post is about...

     

    Currently in my 20´s i am playing way lower content then my own level, because i am a completionist. And when you do all dungeons and some PvP, and kill mobs along your road, and do some exploration, i think there is way to much content to do it all before reaching the endgame.

    Way too much content.  

     

    That's a new one.

    Indeed...your box will probabley come early to mid next week.  So I hear.  Amazon says tue-wed for instance, which is economy class mailing.  (5 days).

     

    I'm not advocating EA, but they DID expedite all shipments, even from Amazon when SWTOR released. Then again, EA thought SWTOR was a MMORPG to rival WoW...

     

    ZOS should at the minimum work with customers to get their keys on time (ship early is a new concept?).  It's more of a black mark on internet sellers than it is with dev/pubs ... which is why Amazon will hate Zenimax over this crap. Huge amount of bad feedback incoming to Amazon's customer service dept.  Other sellers similar.

    Very bad advice. It´s asking to get your account eventually perma banned along with them.

    Absolutely no way you've done all the quests. You might have done all the ones that are appropriate for your current level but you've easily missed loads along the way.
