EXP and leveling question (PC Version)
Hello all,
I've reached level 26, have cleared almost all of the Velen quests, most of the Novigrad and Oxenfurt quests, a large portion of the quests in Skellige, all of White Orchard, and have finally reached Kear Morhen. I have yet to play Gwent outside of the initial game in the bar of White Orchard. The Gwent quests are untouched and the ones that I did pickup are grey colored (low or no EXP gained from completing). Velen, Novigrad, Oxenfurt, and White Orchard have no question marks on the map (fully explored). Skellige has a 40-60 question marks left and many of them are out at sea.
My concern is that there won't be enough quests (non-Gwent) and question marks left for me to reach level 34-36 and I've already run into at least 1-3 quests/witcher contracts that are bugged and can't be completed (Skellige's Most Wanted comes to mind). My question becomes is it necessary to use the infinite EXP glitched quests (post 1.07) to reach 34-36? I haven't used any of them. Grinding level 22-29 mobs seems quite slow since they barely pay a pittance of EXP and respawning them can be a pain. There are exceptions to the respawning such as the level 30 cyclops. I haven't touch town guards as they might offer good EXP but at a much higher risk and potential slower kill speed.
FYI, I'm playing a signs/high sign intensity build (227% sign intensity and 398 Ingi intensity) without the aid of alchemy, potions, or decoctions.
