Fastest way to level 46-50 without completeing Eye to Eye
So I can get a lvl 50 rosie. What are some of the best areas for quick XP?

I'm currently level 48. What I've noticed throughout is that if you do grinding IN BETWEEN each main quest mission and before entering that area that the main quest level will be higher, as will the enemies in that area so it will be easier to grind.

At level 46 I was doing runs through the "Stalker Biome" in the R&D area of the Helios Station. For me, RABID STALKERS gave ~1200-1600 XP each, as did the named Stalker. Then, once I was level 47 I turned in the Science quest to Jack, accepting the quest where he sends you to Veins, called "Watch your Step". This made this quest be LEVEL 46. Now that my main story quest is 46 I went to the Darksiders area in Triton Flats as Veya suggested and right now at 48 the give about half of a box of XP per run.

Lot's of people are saying they did not complete Eye to Eye until they were 50 but still didn't get a 50 Rosie so I am curious... what level is your WATCH YOUR STEP quest? If you already completed it, just check your completed logs. Mine is 46.

Iwajira gives like 25% exp per kill and also some decent loot on top, gold, moonstones, some legendaries. Imho hard to top that.

Iwajira can be pretty hard with 4 levels of damage reduction on your back though, Darksiders are probably the safest and quickest XP for level 46-ish.
Veya, what about 49-50?

49-50 Iwajira is the way to go.

By level 48, Iwajira should be doable if you have good gear, I just said 46 is too low because the small amount of damage reduction Iwajira gets from being higher level can make the fight last too long, longer than your ammo stockpiles last.

I legit can outlive Iwajira with a level 44 Athena as long as I am spec'd into Vanguard and Hold the Line, but the fight is going to last almost literally forever, and I would have ran out of ammo long before the fight is over, the fight would also go on for so long and be so boring that it would literally start syphoning fun from the universe, it is that bad.

TL:DR: Iwajira is doable at very low levels, but the fight takes so long it just isn't worth the amount of XP you get, level 48 is minimum to farm Iwajira IMO.

Get a lv 50 person to powerlevel you with Sterwin. Fastest way in the game, The mission even tells you this is the way to powerlevel in the game.

Grab a Moxxie cocktail buff, pay Iwajira a visit, collect exp. Just don't get too close or he will tail smack you into health gate.

The mission tells you - where am I missing that?

Also, can someone now, anyone, post what the level of their WATCH YOUR STEP quest was in TVHM.

You need a lv 50 person to help you but Sterwin says something like you ...you can keep killing them as much as you like.

Results below :d

i fought zarphedon at lvl43 she was lvl45 and died a few times, so watch your step was probably lower, beginning of the end was lvl48 though

Right, well I'm going to be level 50 before even stepping foot in the Veins. So I will be level 50 when I complete Watch your Step. When I walk first walk into the ZONE that you RECEIVE Beginning of the End in I will already be level 50. I think that has something to do with it we'll find out soon.

I really liked going into R&D and killing stalkers, and the "Boss" stalker there. With a decent lazer i had no problems dealing with them. The boss stalker also have a decent chance of dropping legendary class mods, so i got a few from lvl43-46. Never hurts when you are gearing up :)
And also Darksiders are really nice:
