Not enough EXP from solo questing!

Almost 30 and didn't have a problem like this.

Actually i skipped a lot of quests at Taris, Nar Shaddaa and Tatooine. Well, that's ok, i'm planing to make tons of alts on either side.

And i'm a stealth class, when other classes actually must clean all the way to quest point, i just stealth in (like to play this way, kind of little roleplaying i guess.) So actually i'm getting less exp. if you compare it to other classes.

In short, until level 30, quests are more than enough. You can stay at your current planet if you like or you can go another if you want to change it.

Can't say anything after level 30 though.
I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favorite MMORPG game.

One shouldn't be forced to do flashpoints, PvP, grind or do group quests in order to effectively level. I had done a single flashpoint, and a handful of 4 man quests. I had done about 15 space combat missions, but skipped them the first 5 days or so.

I don't like waiting around for groups and so the flashpoints aren't a big draw for me. The 4 man quest groups rarely advertise looking for a dps and when they do I'm often on the other side of that area or in the middle of a class quest.

Once everyone levels their characters this issue will become a bigger problem for newer lowbies. Please either add exp to the solo quests or add more quests!

Ideally there would be multiple planets for some of the level ranges to add diversity and help pick up the slack.
Do the solo side quests. They can be done solo. if anything ... doing the flashpoints/group missions and pvp will OUT-LEVEL you for the main story missions.

@ the thread starter guy

Its possible to hit 50 just from purely questing... thats what my gf did. She actually got 50 midway through corelia (the second last world you will visit)

i'm having this problem on alderaan, it seems i'm either to low for my class quests or something. darth angral pwns me hardcore ;_;
really... it seems everything pwns me... kira and i jump into a group of normal mobs, we come out with less than half health most of the time, and if a strong joins in it's almost certain we'll die, and forget soloing elites, it's completely impossible for me right now, idk if it's because i'm to low or what. it's really sapping my love for this game though, that's for sure.

Op has skipped zone's.

On one of my char's i left Balmorra as a level 24, while the next zone is Nar Shadaa 20-24.
I did 1 level on Nar Shadaa (because i don't like it there) and moved on to Tat.

And im already 28 on this char with many quest left.
Looks like im going to be 30 before i go to Alderaan 28-32 zone.

I had a very similar problem the OP described on my Sith Sorcerer. I never did a single flashpoint or PvP or anything else other than standard missions. This was when I encountered Belsavis. All of the missions were orange at the time and I was level 40. It was just too difficult for me to grind away on as I wasn't fast enough killing mobs to really progress in any area to complete any missions. My solution was to do space missions to level up, and when I hit 41 I was able to progress as I had been and hit 50 within a day and a half.

I'm not that high yet but so far have had to leave quests behind on each planet to avoid out levelling it.

Seems silly to have to boost your level via other means. I thought they were meant as a bonus not a necessity
Help me, Bio-Ware Support; you're my only hope.

I would like to ignore all the bonus quests, because they feel like grinding, but at moment I have to do them to get not under levelled (and with to few credits in my pockets). I am not too much into the space game (have barely the credits for them, and they are not what want from an MMO), I can't enter warzones at moment (get kicked there before my loading screen let me do anything there), so all I can do it playing the game that feels everyday more grindy.

When you play the game of PvP, you win or you die.

^ This. Sorry, OP, we get TOO MUCH exp from quests, it needs to be toned down.

Just checking here, but you do know that going back to some planets gives you bonus missions right?

Balmorra and Tattooine springs to mind...

of course, doing those at level 40 will give you nothing, but had you gone back sometime near when youre done with the planet after them, you should still get xp for those missions.
