Radiant Echoes - Under level 60 feels terrible? Check you aren't in Chromie Time

A very kind person posted this point on Reddit.

If you are under level 60 and you don’t seem to be levelling much and the bosses are taking forever - check you aren’t in Chromie Time. This made ALL the difference for me.

It puts you back into busy shards, it sorts the levelling out and it puts your abilities back to a proper power level.

If I could run around the various shards in Chromie Time alerting everyone, I would do because the event feels dire if you’re stuck there.

Really hope this helps someone (and tysm to BleakWitness on Reddit)

Is this why I had to run away with the tail between the legs in ghostwolf when I tried to kill an elite mob and why I only see low levels in my shard.

Thanks, it felt miserable.

Thank you so much. I spent 10 levels alone on a shard. It was bleak.

The only thing I noticed whilst levelling an alt below level 60 was the item level of the recruit gear you get is way lower than what I had equipped.

I was levelling my level 18 Mage the other day and when I was at level 28, I currently had item level 66 gear equipped but the recruit gear I was getting was of item level 26.

Any idea why the recruit gear I was getting was not at par with my item level I had?

Finally a topic that is actually useful. Thanks, I wondered why I cant see anyone at Searing Gorge with my 23 warrior. I was in Legion time.
