Forgot to mention but I was also getting the VIP xp bonus here. So if not VIP you won't start quite at 26 by turning in all epic sagas with ship buff, voice and sovereign XP pot but will still get a huge benefit.

I would also recommend not powering yourself directly to 26, get yourself to 23 where you have most of your solid abilities using the smallest available of the sagas and slayers which will get you there while cashing in at least your Pirates of the Thunder Sea, Perils of Cormyr, Menace of the Underdark, The End of Eberron, The Planeswalker's Path. This allows you to safely redo those lv 20-21 quests to restock those sagas for another life, and gain plenty of exp to probably get you towards 25-26. Then cash in your Gianthold to play through that and restock its saga for next life. Use the saga exp to super charge you to the highest level that you can still get full exp bonuses for running those saga quests again. It would feel like such a waste to plow through to 26 and then have it hurt your exp to do that lower level saga content again because you can't enter Reaper or are too high lv to get bravery for EE. Space out your saga exp gain so that you are constantly boosting yourself rather than over shooting

I’d add (as someone who struggles with content in the early 20s) that starting epics at 26 and running them above level is really helpful.

I've been doing that with ETRs for years, but with the number of Legendary level sagas, it's become much better.

Wow i didnt think of this🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻tyvm sir

Prepping the slayers is HUGE XP bump

i bank all the sagas even heroic and i get to lvl 28 with my ship buffs, vom and a 10% pot

Epic TR is kinda the most fun part of the game. You can casually get your sagas and slayers preped over and over

great stuff, Axel!

Great to know about the slayer as well. Thanks

Thanks for the Vid, Something to think about tbh, I have done this in the past but only to claim guild renown so I did all heroics and Epics I think there were 27 of them altogether, I claimed the sagas to get my guild up 7 levels which took me to lvl 70 where I was able to get all buffs and 5% xp which was nice. Forgot to say, the only thing i don't like about Epic TR's is having to redo everything from lvl 1 again, why can't they make it from lvl 20.

I save all my sagas during a heroic life and turn them in after sharn 2, drinking an xp pot at the end of reach for the sky. Then I run wheelon which usually nets me lvl 20. The pot persists through reincarnation, so I can go 18-5 with only one pot per life.

I guess if you already have all the gear, tomes, and sentient gems and are just trying to speed through epic past life completions it's fine. Assuming you start the same quests over again and earn xp while earning the the saga completions it seems like a good strategy to skip those lower epic levels. Maybe I'll consider this when XP is the most important thing to chase down. I've actually been enjoying some older content while my character is at L20 with Epic Saltmarsh gear where I can tackle reaper mode on higher level quests for some extra challenge.

I agree it is a good strategy. I was farming reaperpoints and epic lives at end game and was using the sagas for the next epic life. Otherwise that end game saga is wasted XP

do pots pause in public like guild renown does?

I have a video suggestion although it's a bit negative and kind of a hot button but some of the nerfs that came out in the last year were absolutely BS ...I would love a 100% objective take on these

Link to disco is expired :/

Sadly.. once you've done all your completionist lives.. all that's left is maxing reaper.. 😞

3:25 I thought saga xp didn't follow the max xp rule for the purposes of banking. Did that change at some point?

Something I've wondered about but didn't really want to try in-game is what happens to Heroic saga rewards if you leave them until Epics and try to claim them at lvl 21+?
