Need help getting to 50

Right, I need some (maybe a lot) of help getting my main character to 50 on the Union server. He's on the blue side btw.

I have been doing my best alone, and with the few teams I can manage to find, but I'm stuck at lvl 35 atm... It just takes too long solo, and the few teams I have been in, some have been very good, and others have been, errr, not so good..

So now I'm asking for help. I would really appreciate if some experienced players could lend a hand and get my main to 50 ASAP Zulu, since I'm tired of being stuck, or not getting very far each time I play...

I've been at it for many months now, and would like to get on with it...

Character name: Cpt. Star Gazer
Global handle @Iella Draconis

Join the global channel "sals badgehunters" - it is pretty much the official powerlevel channel these days (even the founder blatantly asks for people to PL him there).

More seriously, join there and since you're lv 35, you're in the prime level to get to task forces like Imperious, which are really the fast way to level in the endgame unless you go the pure farm route, which just leads to bad players.

Is there any other ways than TF's?? They have a tendency to take many hours, and I do not usually have that many hours avaiable to play...

By the way, there's not really any need to rush to 50 - 50 will still be there, no matter how long you take to get there

Other than Task Forces there are few things you can do;

1- Try to join an active Super Group and team with members as much as you can
2- Try to form your own teams or send tell on going teams for invite. If you ask politely people don't mind to SK you i think.
3- I guess around level 35 people mostly do RWZ missions try to hang in there
4- Wait for double XP weekend but next one is too far away i guess (most possible time is Positron's birthday on June)

Even if a level 50 help you, duoing ain't better than soloing. Full teams means faster level gain.

Also it is probably worth noting the the ITF hasn't taken me longer than 2 hours for a VERY long time (No ghosting etc either), and that is with SG teams and a few PuG's.

So the idea that TF's take many hours isn't necessarily true unless you are unlucky with the team.

Joining an ITF through Sal's Badgehunter pretty much guarantees you a decent team too.

Hmm... Ok then, I better get into a good ans active SG.

But the few SG's I've been in have been very dead, with only a few players on at any given time (maybe 3-4).

Do you have any suggestions as to wich SG's are active, and most importantly, have many active players???

---

Hang in Atlas for a bit and you will hear them shout in Broadcast.

To be honest i have little knowledge about active SGs in Union. Only SGs i interested in were my own SGs which i put my own heroes.

---

Or make a new post here with your toon(s), play times, how long you play etc and say you are looking for an active SG and someone will pick you up.
My advice if you do that is be fussy and make sure the SG is right for you because some are active, but not necessarily when you are on and don't necessarily run short things that you can join.

Also some SG's have prestige requirements but don't let that worry you because it's worth it if you get in the right SG.

Edit: Spelling!

So, how much are you paying for farming these days, donna?

Do you mean how much would you have to pay for me to farm you a 50?

Don't think you can afford me
