how long will it take me to get to max level?

[Argstein]

i know max level is 50 levels + 660 champion levels.... i'm level 32 so far haven't unlocked champion levels yet.... it's taken me about two weeks to get this far, can anyone help me approximate how long it would take me at this rate to reach max level on this character?

edit: i've been relying on daily random dungeon queue & dolmen runs for exp mostly but i don't focus on leveling much, i've been mostly doing thieve's guild, mage's guild, and main quest stuff

660 isn't the cap, it's somewhere in the 800s or 900s now, and it will be a while before you hit the cap. I just recently hit level 50+cp160 and I've got a ltitle over 200 hours in so far, with most of that on one character and a bit on another.

Is this your first character? If so, don't be in a rush to reach max level. Take your time & enjoy the ride - do all the zone quests & content, collecting skyshards along the way. Learn how to play your chosen class, as well as stuff like boss mechanics etc. Most importantly, have fun!

Become a finely aged wizard. Explore all of tamriel and beyond while you level, and enjoy every spot you can find.

there isnt actully a cap but there is a soft cap atm of 620 atm (they are raising the soft cap in the newest dlc patch) you just stop getting cp points after the soft cap there are cp 1200+ people around

Cap is around CP3500. But for now you can distibute only 660 Champion Points, so most of people call cap of CP660. Other CP's are decorative and give you nothing.

Dunno. You can through from lvl3 to lvl50 in 3 or 4 hours if you have Sorcerer friend. Skyreach farming, go from entrance to chest genociding everything around, disband, repeat. Its only up to you how much time you will spend on leveling.

On level 50 you will get huge Enlightment boost, which works as 400% Exp Scroll, but based on exp ammount, not timer. It will be around 4,8 mil exp, if i remember right. You get ~400k to Enlightment every day, and cap is 4,8kk (not sure about particular number), so it stacks.

This will be enough for quick leveling up to CP100+, which is not far away from CP160, which is your goal, because lvl50cp160 is a cap for equipment. After CP160 all equipment you'll get may be stacked for sets, because hey, top level equipment. Quest rewards, drop, other things - after CP160 those arent useless junk you will deconstruct or sell without even looking.

After CP160 goto back to normal quests and exploring. Those are easy and will let you level all armors, weapons and skills to top without challenge. Like, for now i'm working on Dual Wield... using only one active skill, Shroud Dagger. Other 4 slots + Ult are useless or unusable, i just level those.

Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood arent good for exp and gives nothing useful. If you purchased DLCs instead of getting access via ESO+, drop those for later and get back to alliances. If you got those via ESO+... welp, you cn cover content, but skill lines will be blocked after ESO+ expires, so...

Orsinium would be useful because of Maelstrom Arena, but your level is not enough for it.

So, in short my advices are:
- Get CP160 asap just for top level equipment.
- Level everything, no matter class or style.
- Ignore DLC content, do normal quests.

Dungeons arent really good for exp, but those could help you polish your build.
Dolmen runs arent good for exp, but those allows you to level Fighters Guild fast + since there's always tons of people, you can slack around and freely level your skills.
Thieves Guild, Dark Brotherhood, Orsinium and Morrowind arent that good for exp, concentrate on normal quests.

I've played 841 hours and I just hit CP 372.

We are at max cp of 660, clockwork City will take us to cp 690. Upper cp cap is 3600. But benefits are felt to cp 660.

Doing Random Dungeons are good for EXP. I get 100k EXP each time I do my first Random Daily. Which gives me about 4 levels.

Just a small clarification about TG and DB skill lines: if eso+ expires, you will not be able to further continue to gain xp in these skill lines and unlock new passive skills, BUT the ones you already earned/unlocked stay unlocked and and can be used, Blade Of Woe also stays unlocked and availabe, so you do not completely lose your progress and access to those skill lines, you just can not earn more xp in them to max them out untill you either buy the dlcs or renew eso+.
