I just want to be 100% sure that this portraits won't be available after release.
I don't care about achievement but i care about portraitrs, thats why i'm asking
And i doubt simply because of current ui in hots - they could have made this icons separetely for achieving 90lvl, but no this portraits are reward for 30lvl, so imho it might stay this way after release.
And if so then i don't care about getting them in beta.

It is exclusive. Aside from that, why would they release a Warhound Portrait if that unit does not exist? Those are beta portraits for beta unit testing.

Ugh, I decided to not go for 30 anymore. Too time consuming. But then I saw how little exp you actually need per level. Provided they keep beta up until at least the end of February (I heard the day before actual release, but haven't seen any sources), I think I can do it, maybe with two races even.

Thanks for posting the whole chart for exp needed to level, got my motivation back again.

If you're doing the 4v4 strat, then you should be pulling in 70-80k exp every 20-25 minutes. This amounts to ~26 hours of gameplay to max out a race.

...it's actually not as bad as I thought it would be. But maybe years of MMOs have tempered my expectations accordingly.

I would like to read your (imaginary ?) sources. Blizzard never closed a Beta the day before release.

Beta was closed 2-3 weeks before release date for the previous Blizzard games.

WoL Beta closed June 8th 2010
WoL was released June 27th 2010

Like I said, I heard it but never actually saw any sources. If they do the 2-3 weeks like they did with WoL, it should put it around the end of February so this is still very much doable.

The farming part is what makes the grind less interesting, because it's so repetitive. But that's what grinding/farming is, right? The 50k/20 minutes is more fun for me, since the ladder AI will play different races and go different builds (beyond my control), plus it improves my 1v1 a little bit, so then it seems less grind-y and more practice-y. Ahh whatever, good luck to you guys, good luck to me! Definitely not an impossible task, far from it.

I actually just play match making against AI. At the highest level, I can beat AI in 17 minutes as Terran with 47k experience. Not too bad compared to 50k experience in 15 minutes.

Its odd I started doing this with the last major patch as I wanted to get to level 90 (just for me). I am currently 85 with 5 levels of terran to go.

However I hate terran and its tedious as hell at this point.

Will we have more exp from killing time-based units, like Locusts, Turrets and Infested Terrans?

I wonder if there's a way to have afk farm exp by making swarm hosts and attacking into the AI. It would have to be really precise so that the AI can build an army at the same rate of locusts spawning.

I did a pretty AFK build with protoss. Start game with all medium AI and enemy set @ 50%. Go do whatever you want, come back to the game @ 5 minutes, request 9950 resources > macro up till 6~10 stargates > cancel request of resources. Come back 3 minutes later > request 9950 resources > macro around 20 VR > Patrol them around the enemy's bases > come back 5 minutes later > accept AI surrender.

This takes around 3~6 Alt tabs to make it work, very afk-ish and you can do a lot of other stuff while gaining XP. Not the fastest method, but the most practical if you want to do other stuff.
