From 1 to 20 in 15 Hours (Part 2)

Guide to Power Leveling

By Darkgolem



Below is exactly how I went from level 1 to 20 in 15 hours.  Note
the quests with synergy, such as the Combe Quests and Lone Lands
Quests.  Also note when I formed parties (as mentioned in href="http://lotro.tentonhammer.com/index.php?module=ContentExpress&func=display&ceid=548">Part
1 of this article) and when I chose to solo.  You might note
multiple trips between Adso's Camp and Buckland.  This is because
these quests work well together.  Finally, notice I took runner
quests (Bree-Town to Trestlebridge, and so on).



It took 3 days to do this, playing for 5 hours a day, but if I kept in
mind what quests had to be done at night (The Haunted Alley, Adso's
Delivery, and Shadow of the White Hand), I could have done it in a
day.  Note that there is a down side to power leveling.  By
the time I was done, I had almost no feats, no growth in my crafting
skills, and I had spend about 300 silver worth of fee's in fast
travel.  But on the other hand, I was ready to go at level 20!



Have fun!
