Nasty thread for me atm.

Why?

My toons are 37 now and I am SICK of SM. The thought of even grinding the last three planned levels there is de-motivating. So, to think I'm less than half way by some of the measures in this thread is .... a bummer.

That said, this isn't my first rodeo and simply leaving SM will be a breath of fresh air. I still wish I had a good plan for levels 40 to 45 to get to the Hinterlands and beyond kill quest run.

Oh well, its the journey not the destination right? :S
If it's not fun, don't do it. Run a zone of quests and I think you'll be surprised at how quickly the xp rolls in. After ZF, I only ran Mara once for the Thrash Blade and have quested the last few levels. 8-10k XP in easy chunks is nice when you've got 6-8 quests to turn in at a time. Questing has been a nice break from instance running, and I was able to farm mats easier while questing too.
