Is it faster to level now, with full heirlooms, the 100% xp buff, or in SL?

As the title says, is it faster to level now, with full heirlooms, the 100% xp buff and 20% pots, or is it faster to level with the revamp in Shadowlands? (I'm talking about level 120/50, not 60.)

Good question, I've been wondering the same thing.

good question, probably not much of a difference. The heirlooms will give an extra rest bonus instead of the xp buff in sl also

From what I have read, it's very fast. I would say about the same speed as live with all of the exp boosts you have mentioned.

From some streamers and youtubers I have seen you can level in like 3-5 days as a casual from 1 to 50 when Shadowlands drops. Which to me seems a lot faster.

Yeah seemed to get better offering 4k+ per quest when I moved to BFA. There were a select few quests offering 8k in WoD but the majority went from 6k normal xp to 2k xp. Weird.

EDIT: Deleted my previous posts after eating my own words. XP seemed to die down in WoD doing chromie time at 47, cut by 2/3rds. I said screw it and went to do BFA and wouldn't you know it, BFA now giving 8k per quest instead of the 2k per quest WoD was giving.

So I suppose at around 46-47 go to BFA and quest and it seems fairly quick. Maybe slightly faster than it was before. I quit using heirlooms at this level because I don't have rested xp so the benefit seems negligible when you start getting decent gear. Leveling fast now in BFA with chests and quests.
