    Yep - is it 10,000 for a legendary raid? So 100 = 1m XP....

    Yep, and some of those would have been done during double xp times.
    Which shows me I need to get a bunch in this weekend :D

    Well I slacked off at around 650k due to business trips etc. but it's done; 33 hit, Mew captured and at 328/347 (which should be +1/+1 as I got an unevolved Slakoth only waiting for the final candy to push all the way through). Still have a few more mons to walk out with multiple with in 20 candy of evolving so a few more numbers to add to the book by 34 for sure.
    Ironically I managed to level up exactly one month later after some intensive raiding with eggs (40k per epic raids adds up quickly). Hit 34 and currently a bit over 10% in on it; Pokdex standing at 344/356 with a Latios caught (yay!). Only got two more 'mons to walk out from an evolution purpose at this stage but I expect both will be done before 35 and then it's basically regional/raids/EX raids/monthly legendary left (and I can't make it to Dortmund sadly as I've looked at all possible options so no go this year).

    And ding ding ding, level 35 hit. At 352/360 (still need to add Kyoro to my dex) and now I'm down to legendary / raids / regional only.

    Am finding it tough going recently. My PoGo activity has dropped a lot over the last 3 months. Seem to be stuck on lvl 38 forever, a local gym rival has recently hit 39, I was at 38 about a month before them!
    Lack of raid participation is my issue, have yet to do Regice and only did about 15 raids overall for Latias/Latios.
    300K to go until lvl 39.

    He can be a bit of a pain to catch; likes to jump high and punch quite a bit as a heads up. I'm 1 for 3 so far but the last one was without berries (because I could not be bothered).

    I hit level 39 last week and I'm over 10% of the way to 40 already, mostly because of the extra xp from the event. I wonder if they're ever going to add more levels?

    No indication that this rumored level cap increase will happen.
    Theory is that if they do add more levels that they will be a gate on level up beyond just XP. ie. Badge’s earned,

    Or they would even out the curve further; i.e. level 50 is let's say 6 million exp but level 40 is now only 1 million letting more people level up higher faster and feel good about it.

    Here we go again Ding 38! Dex up to 358/366. Have to be honest I got a bit tired of it all mid way through 37 as you're still far away from 39; got a feeling 38 might be a bit of burn out as well though I hope to push quite a few Ultra friendship bonuses through to help with it.

    Level 36 reached.
    Took almost 2 months since we were on holidays in Pokehell for much of it.
    If we hadn't been able to lucky egg 7 Ultra Friends in the last week, it would have taken us another month.
    Just over 1/3 of the way to Level 40.
    47,000 Pidgeys waiting to be evolved.

    Levelled up to 39 at the weekend. So, while it took about 6 months to go from 37 to 38, only took just over 3 months to go from 38 to 39.

    Maybe I'm playing a bit more, have done a few more raids. Getting about 5 or 6 Ultra friends with a lucky egg on, and the other few with 50,000xp made a big difference though. Along with a couple of events too I suppose.

    ...................
    I would fully concur. I found the grind from 37 up to 39 to be intolerable. (also a new PC game in April slowed me up a bit!!)
    But the new friendship system has really pumped up my XP, currently 1.5 million short of lvl 40. I got 500K from lucky egg "ultra friend" leveling a few days ago. I plan to do the same with another 10-12 next week.
    I think psychologically once I hit lvl 39 I realised I was in the home stretch.

    Dexwise I'm at 371/373 with a workmate going to trade me a Tropius.
    So Relicanth is my current white whale.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    About 650k short of level 40 now. Friendship has really slowed (I'm ultra with most of the reliables, but even some of the reliables have tired of the process and aren't opening gifts) and nobody wants Regi, so it might take a little more time than expected.

    And ding motherhumpa ding with dex at 361/369 (still need to add Celebei and the next month's daily quest evolution). 38 turned out to be another hell level as expected though ultra friend bonuses sure helped. Once I noticed I had about 300k left I decided to burn every single evolution I had saved for exp to get it over with... Now to finish the last 25% of total exp ever :P And unlike the previous 10 levels I don't think I'll do this one in under a month.

    It might go easier than you think. Work on lower level friends.
    Try a lucky egg for city journeys. I had 70 lucky eggs stashed from spending coins on boxes earlier in the year. Halfway through lvl39 I just started putting them on for my cross city commute.
    I’m 150K shy of lvl 40, expect it by the weekend.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    I hit level 40 last week while doing a raid and going ultra with one person. Ended up 197 more items in my bag than allowed!

    Even though level 40 is fairly devalued now, I'm still quite chuffed and hope I gain something from it eventually, like the ability to submit pokestops. And i do like the lack of a progress bar!

    Well only in follow up I'm now halfway (well 2.46MM) in but I got a series of maximum friends coming up in about 20 to 25 days that should net me a .5 to 1 mil boost depending on if I can egg them or not. I'd guess beginning to mid October is when I'll do my final ding. Sadly I'll miss the community triple exp event due to real life which would have sped things up.

    Just hit Level 37 thanks to a pair of luckied Besties.

    And still not even half way :(

    I wouldn't mind a bit of pidgey farming but Niantic don't look like they'll ever again double XP game wide.


  • Registered Users Posts: 826 ✭✭✭DublinCJM


    Levelled up to 40 a couple of week ago.

    So it took me:
    6 months approx to go from 37-38
    3 months from 38-39
    2.5 months from 39 to 40.

    Friends system really made a difference for me. I thought I'd never see 40 when it took so long from 37 to 38.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,626 ✭✭✭✭josip


    Ka-ching!
    Made it to level 38 yesterday AND Niantic announced double XP for evolves.
    I think I've about 300 low life that I can clear out of storage, so I won't have to spend coins on that for a while.
    This will be the last farming evolve for me, I only hung on to them until now in the hope of a double evolve XP event.

    Niantic have turned off the tap on farmables anyway, so I'll have to rely on friendships to push on from here.

    So as I've just went past the 40 million exp milestone I thought it would be fun to look back at the difference compared to the first 20 million exp.
