Hey I was just wondering what's the best way to lvl up so far? It seems there are lvl 80s popping up like weeds and the game has only been out for a 2 weeks or so.

In my experience to level 80, I found that if you just explore and "map" things, you'll rise pretty quickly. Get every skill challenge, every point of interest, every waypoint, renown heart, etc and you should be good. Crafting also helps boost your XP potential (especially with discovery) if you aren't too worried about making some money on the side with the Trading Post.

The story quests give lots of xp. So i recommend doing them and then clearing the zones they take you to. (course i'm not 80 yet so that might change later on but i doubt it).

This has been my method. Every zone that my story quest takes me to, I have to get 100% in that zone before i can complete the story quest. I can only play a couple hours a day because of work, but I've been on a steady 3-4 levels a day climb with only a couple hours (70 now). An easy way to level from 40 to 50 is to get a good group and do CM story mode runs over and over and over. When you get the hang of it, it takes about 20 minutes and you get over 30k exp. So about 12-14 times you'll gain 10 levels.

IMO LvLing fast is foolish. Enjoy the game there is a ton of content to be learned. Make alts but mainly just have fun and don't worry that so and so just made 80. The first to 80 are the losers, not bad people just to interested in a number. But again if that race is fun for you, then by all means play that way. Oh and jumping puzzles suck ;D in fact jumping to get to any view sucks, he he, can u tell I suck at jumping?

Any way you find the game fun and interesting is the best way to level.
I've always been the race type ever since I started playing MMOs.
I find in this game though I enjoy the process so much that I can't even seem to choose one class over another so I'm playing each about equal times completing each zone to as near 100% completion as I can at that time.
I say near 100% completion because there are little caves and puzzles that I missed on one toon or another even though I'd have gone through the area to 100% of the exploration acheivement with a different toon. A couple of zones I've been in three times and I'm still able to find events and caves and such that I didn't manage to see on the first toon through.
That is the beauty of this game's design, the fact that everyone has that personal choice of how to play and it really won't affect much other than getting into specific dungeons due to level.
Point is, if you enjoy it, that's the way to level.
