But I've finished my pub team quests now
Absolute fastest way to level (well back in late Feb when my guild rerolled) is to run operation groups in world heroic areas. We did like level 11 to 19 in 90 minutes in DK, did 20 to like 25 in a couple hours on Nar Shadda in one of the world heroic areas. Our level spread broke up at this point and it was no longer feasible to continue running operations. However so long as you can keep finding boss grade mobs that you can kill quickly, or even the yellow grade ones in high volume. You can BLITZ the levels. The reason is really quite simple. 12 People don't get 1/12th the XP, 16 people don't get 1/16th they get is significantly more. Which means you can absolutely tear through mobs like this getting obscene numbers of commendations and the XP is outrageous. For example, on both Nar Shadda and Dromund Kaas, the two areas we did had named bosses at the end of their areas which we could chain summon. Which meant we had solo named boss monsters that we could spawn as fast as we could kill them.

You can also power level in this manner in level 50 heroic areas. A bunch of buddies on another server told me that they could PL alts if most of their guild was on in one of the heroic areas on Ilum extremely fast. Ten or so level 50's with a pack of lowbies, and the 50's blasted through the monsters so fast that the XP was just flowing in.

Once the game goes f2p, I think there is a very very good chance that I will see if I can wrangle 6 accounts on my desktop and 6 accounts on my RoG Asus G75. Twelve box via grinding heroics to 50 ;p

On my operatives, I am probably going to skip the story quests until I am 50. I've done all the plot lines in beta, and doing Op x3 + PT x1 is just tedious in the extreme. It has actually taken me longer to level 1-15 with a 4 box, than it would take me normally to level a solo character to 30 or a duo to mid 20's ;p
