    Boost or no?

    Completed warlords of new-york.
    Did reset my character because i seen this... boosted character, i missed many side missions and there were said i will miss some achievments too.
    So yeah i did reset and now i am at world tier 01 again and i have possibility to boost my char again or continue to grind world tiers.

    The question is... is it really worth to grind through world tiers or it is just does not makes sense if you have option to boost!?
    What can i get out of it and what is the difference becaue i already completed all campaign and side missions.

    I think this is highly subjective.
    If you boost, you are giving up on some parts, but how interesting or important those parts are, depends on each person's tastes.
    In terms of grind from WT1 to 5, it's not that much though, doesn't take a lot of time.
    I did it, and I was okay with it, no regrets.

    I played my first character to Tier 5 then went to NY, the other characters I created I just boosted them.

    Boost serves a good purpose, which is to save some time and get to the newer content quicker. Most people end up regretting it, because it also makes you skip a lot of the player development that happens as you climb through the levels and tiers. Obviously, you miss out on loot, but loot is not that important at the lower levels. But in terms of player skill and tactics, you learn a lot climbing the ladder, and it is my opinion that you end up being a better player having put the time in.

    Why not both?

    • Level a character normally to level 30 WT5. Leave it at WT5 for hunting achievements.
    • Start a new character and boost it to WONY any play the real end-game and SHD watch grind.

    I have one (original) character at L40 SHD1600+ that I levelled up before going to NY, one boosted at same SHD and one character at WT5 but way below maxed GS that is not going to NY.
