Me and most of my clan all come from 5+ years of WoW, so yes we are heavily more on the PVE side of things. A few things, despite how everyone else seems to have complained about grinding, for us if anything we think it's absurdly easy to get geared out in this game lol. I completed Dead Orbrit rep to rank 3 in like 3 days just by doing bounties and patrols without really trying. I currently have Vanguard rank 3 as well, and the other 2 factions rank 2. Each of those only took a few days without really trying. It's really weird to me to hear how many people complain about getting gear as if they want to only spend 2-3 days to have everything. I'm currently sitting on full legendaries and a ton of exotics, and the game has been out only like a month or so? Any other MMO would take a few months to reach this kind of gear level and max on literally all the reputations. I'm not at all complaining that it's too easy, I think it's tuned wayyyy better than other MMOs. And having to level the new gear you get is a great twist that keeps you playing, whereas in other games once I get the loot I've wanted I have no incentive to go out and test it for more than 5 minutes. Most recently after having run out of things to do on my main, I decided to make an alt of the same class to double the amount of coins/materials I get per week. By having it the same class, I am able to transfer my gear over from my main to my alt and effectively have two level 29 characters. Anyways, leveling an alt is also ridiculously fast easy. Just do every single story mission and strike once and you should be level 17 by the end of it (for increased speed get a friend to blow through the missions for you in like 5-10 minutes each). Once you've completed everything, just wait for the bounties to reset the next day and after 2-3 days of doing easy bounties you'll be 20. I started my alt on Friday and had him level 20 by Monday, barely any time spent. Basically, it seems to me like all the people who don't come from FPS games are just having a rough time accepting the nature of MMOs that are designed to be a slow drip to keep you playing. This game is truly easy mode when it comes to grinding.
