Fort battles are a full level-up each, there are enough that you'll max and still have more left over to enjoy.

Not in my experience...

You have to remember, Ive completed the game. There are no more fort battles except the endless mode and they dont give you a level. They give you barely any exp and you have to grind to even get to the battle properly.

I'm not in front of the game now but I'm almost certain you get xp from the siege defense missions in Shadow Wars. It's pretty much the only way to get xp after you've done the story.

You dont get much of any. Plus, every shadow war raises the levels insanely that you have to grind orcs in each region anyway. xD

I just got a ful level with of xp from one Shadow Wars siege. And you don't have to grind really. Just buy the upgrades and brand the enemy as they are assaulting. Your lower level ones die off and you get higher level ones to replace them.

Or send your lower level orcs into the champion fight pits. They will lose to the higher level orcs and then you just brand the winners.

Can you do the online vendetta missions or online conquest missions? You might get some xp from those.

Then you aren't at my level yet. Rip.

It took me 3 shadow wars to get from 49-50

I thought the same thing, and the answer is what others have been saying; just keep playing the shadow wars. You seem to get more EXP the more you do it, so it starts slow and then eventually gives you 2 levels per victory etc.

It's counter productive, because you want to level up to level your orcs, but you have to play with orcs underlevelled and suboptimal defenses to level up, but I don't think any other way will level you without excessive grinding. Even doing the online vendetta's give you like a tiny smidge of exp after a victory.

Best is to just grind through them really...honestly this act is the worst part of the game so better to get it over with.

That's not that bad. Way faster than doing orc missions. Those are your only two options for xp.

Yea. Still takes hours to get one level once you reach level 50+ And beat the story mode.

Do the Daily challenges mentioned in the vid it really helps.

I'm doing the Shadow Wars mission and I promise, they are giving me a full level every time. Maybe the first few were not worth much, but the enemies ramp up in levels and they start being worth a lot of experience. It might be boring, but its the fastest way to hit 60.
