Default Fastest Possible Level 20?
http://img706.imageshack.us/i/gw039y.jpg/

I'm sure there has been faster but I decided to try for a fast one last night and managed to get from creation to 20 in 36 minutes. Next goal is >30 min but not sure if I will ever actually attempt it or if it will be possible.

With Hammers you could probably do it in under 30 minutes.

level 10 I could see so that you access EOTN quicker, but 20 maybe so you can be OP while going through quests/missions, etc until you get heros? Either way, better to be level 20 quicker if starting a new toon if you've already played through the game the traditional way

Yep, I saw a screen shot of 47 min legendary survivor using hammers, so i assume you could do 20 much faster.

Well at least it didn't take long out your day, plenty of time for a walk too

I got chars 3 years old that haven't got to 20 yet ^^

Shouldn't you factor in the time it takes to farm the gold to get the hammers?

No because we are talking about the /age on that char being the lowest possible.

Cause then we would have to add the time it took to farm the gold to buy the xp scrolls/rock candy/cons it took to do the kilroy runs that fast too. (I know its like no money but its an example)

We are just talking about the lowest /age u can have on a lvl 20 char.

No. The whole point of the exercise is time from character creation to 20 or LS.

Kaths are definitely FTW.

Yea I have 2 LS from hammers but I did this very spur of the moment. I had the rock candies and the LB scrolls were faster to buy and cheaper than hammers. Not sure what the total trip time from boreal station to kath is although im sure it's less than the time it took in kilroys. That will be something to think about for the next rainy day.

Couldn't you get to 20 really quick with the Halloween quest where you turn in the captures skelentons? I think that was minutes.

You first had to get to LA and ToA, or any other town to access the questgiver and the UW. Then you first have to do the two starting quests to even reach the repeatable quest, and one of those made you run through he entirety of UW.

Anyways, gj Tried and Triumphed. Now try for <30 min, because anyone can do >30 min.

Before the removal of gh exploit, you could map travel and do hammers at lvl one. It would only take a few minutes ^^

But yeah without exploiting, hammers still fastest.

The time to get to lvl 20 i never pay much attention to. The fastest time to get legendary survivor without Halloween was with Vaettir faming. I was not doing it for time but did it in 6 hours.

Impressive, I've always been curious about it.

How did you get to 10, D'Allesio's outpost? My biggest roadblock is always waiting for a ferry to show up.

im sorry but i dont see what the big deal is so what you bought or farmed a bunch of things and turned them in to get xp and yes you should count the time it took you to get all the stuff you needed cause in the end all you did was switch the stuff from one guy to another

Yea I had the ferry's set up for me and I remember doing the gh trick but I wanted to do this one at least somewhat legit if you can even call lightbringer scrolls and kilroys that.
