1) Build your own PTs...don't sit around waiting for an invite. 2) Try to build PTs around a BRD and/or a COR. These jobs exist in large part to facilitate faster XPing. 3) Try to match damage types to the weaknesses of the monsters you are fighting. Perhaps the best known example of this is the fact that all flying creatures are weak to piercing. 4) Take advantage of Fields of Valor...it's free XP. You will never level as fast as you can in WoW, but these steps will at least make things go somewhat faster.
