Talent Trees are unlocked at level 90, with a set amount of Prestige XP gain (20%) between past level 90 (level 90 and 20% towards next level gives the first point). * [[Lore and Legend Timeline|Lore and Legend quests]] give a very good amount of Alternate Advancement and will give you a mastery strike (a type of bonus) against the mobs for which you complete the quests. * [[Heritage Quests Timeline|Heritage Quests]] can earn you much more Alternate Advancement than normal quests. * When entering a zone for the first time, try to pick up any [[Bootstrutter's Field and Trail Guides|Bootstrutter quests]] in the zone so that you can complete the quest while gaining the discovery Alternate Advancement. * It is no longer necessary to [[Mentoring|mentor]] down for gray quests. Starting with [[Update:45|LU 45]], you earn AA XP from all quests, even if they are gray. However, you must still [[Mentoring|mentor]] down if you want to earn AA XP from named monsters. * Adjusting the slider can be extremely helpful when players need to gain adventure levels or AA quickly, since the slider can be set to give as much as a 100% gain to AA or as low as 0% to AA. The slider acts as a means to keep your AA gain in balance with XP gain though, and even with it set to 0% to gain more combat XP, a small percentage will still go to AA XP. For this reason, you can think of the ability to adjust the slider as bonus XP for AA. * In order to have a balance between combat XP and AA Points when you reach max level, players typically want to have approximately 2-3 AA Points for every adventure level. For this reason, it is not uncommon for players to complete quests in several of the starter zones (Gororwyn/Neriak/New Halas/Kelethin) after they reach level 10. *See the [[Free-To-Play]] page for details on limits to AA that may effect All Access and Free-to-Play accounts.
