I must say, I've done 2 Mules in 2 weeks, last week I did one for the crafting bench, via WONY. This week I did DZ. My findings: with WONY if you don't finish the campaign, you can't do the Weekly SHD or other projects, and I really did not feel like doing Liberty Island again. The DZ route was lots of fun, as I hardly ever go into it as I hate PVP, so it was almost a new experience which I thoroughly enjoyed. It felt quicker, as I've run WONY so many times with mules. As well, you can drop in, do two landmarks, drop out and come back later. With WONY you have to play through an entire mission at a time. It is nice to have both options now.

Yup I felt exactly the same as this it didn't feel like a chore.

Thanks DJ. But don’t ignore WONY fully even if we all don’t like the grind. After boosting to 30, if you do go to WONY via Pilot, it gives to XP for just doing that. Plus if you do the initial parts of each of the sections in WONY (the unlocking of the safe houses) you get XP for it. All that takes about 15-20 min total but there is about 1.5 level worth of points in it…. Take those and then return to DC or DZ.

For me, doing DZ landmarks, levels 36-40 seemed to go by 2x as fast as 30-36. I think there might be a jump in XP rewards at the higher levels, perhaps? I definitely saw 100-200k per landmark near the end.

If your solo in the DZ the XP from killing enemies is significantly more, but if you are in a group, it will be reverted to the normal XP values. Don’t know why it’s like that but you are correct.

I'm curious to know how you repeated the Lincoln method in 2h 30m. Let's say you did each in 8 minutes, on hard including npcs kills it will give 140kp. DZ landmarks can be cleared in 1-2 minutes, giving 75k/160k xp depending on the leveling scale

I _think_ you just recalibrate on the bench. You just need a capacitor of above GS250 (level 30?) and it will give you one back which matches the level of your bench. So, a new character will get a lower than level 40 one back.
