It isn't that people fail to cap - it's that people that do quests at levels they are challenging (e.g. elite Vale at 15) find themselves at level 18, ~750k XP from cap, and with no first time XP available for any quests above level 12.
Had a guildie in this position. He then had to do the following for first time XP:
Elite ADQ1 (-75% overlevel penalty)
Elite Desert walkups (-99% overlevel penalty)
Casual Amrath flagging quests for first time XP (n/n/n/n/n/h/e mostly already done)
Vale slayer - to cap
Subteranne slayer - to 3000
Delerium and Acid Wit e/e/e/h/n (he'd missed those)
Stealer of Souls h/e
Having to do those quests (all but SoS stupidly easy at 19) were his punishment for running the other content in the game at the level that it is fun, rather than at a level where it is stupidly easy (like Vale normals at 17).
I don't have a zerging problem.
I'm zerging. That's YOUR problem.
This is gonna be ugly, but it has the info. Basically, if you do all the free content, plus necro 1, plus von, dq, gianthold, the vale (and shroud) and amrath, you can get to 20 in your second and third+lives. In both second and third life, you will be 18-19 after doing them all on nnnhe, once. This does not include any optionals or wilderness area exp. If you run any of the high end raids for gear, you will cap your character no matter what.

Your numbers are absolutely wrong!
We have over 250 quests in the game and NO ONE runs 30 quests to cap! Even the ones that aim for the fastest most efficient TRs don't do that!
I agree here!
The only thing is that I wouldn't restrict epic content to TRs. Perhaps allow epic quests entry to level 19+ TR1s or 18+ for TR2s. I'm not absolutely sure about this, but if it was to be that non-capped toons were allowed into epics I'd prefer it like that.
R.I.P. Devourer - 20-Aug-2010 11:00 GMT(+1 DST)(World Broadcast): World broadcast: 'Farewell to all our loyal players and thank you for your time in Eberron. We wish you all the best for your future adventures. Please log out now as the servers are now going down. Many thanks, Codemasters Online.'
I'd play throught 2nd or higher TR's on elite only, althought I'm not sure I'd really enjoy as much. Seems to me like the processs would come to follow even more of formula, ie, two rogue levels for every life and increased lesser heart sales.
If XP were lowered back down to 1.9m with elite only and quests still followed the degenerating XP curve of 1st time elite bonus, no penalty twice, -10% thereafter, tr'ing would become a complete joke. I you could finish lives so fast it'd be hard to remember what class you were playing. Completionist in a month, 34 lives in 3 or less. As it stands now, with the exception of some traps on a build without evasion or rogue, elite isn't that much different from running hard or normal with a twinked out TR. There's a fair amount of quests that are already commonly farmed on elite setting when TR'ing. With that thought in mind, bring on the change. I don't really see how they could lower xp and keep the same repetition penalties in place even with an elite only policy in place.
A change that strikes me as more interesting challenge for a second or higher TR would be require every quest in game be done elite, raids included, to reattain level 20. Although that would probably be impossible to mesh with the current leveling system, not mention to adventure pack model of business.
I'm sorry but Elite only is a monumentally stupid idea.
It restricts grouping with others.
It REQUIRES a rogue as elite traps will 1 shot you in most cases. And such required grouping is bad.
Proper planning prevents poor performance.
If your guildie decided it would be a good idea to do vale quests on elite at level 15, then that is his fault. He was still able to cap. There is plenty of xp to make up for mismanaged questing, it might suck to obtain it, but it is there. It sounds to me like people want their cake and get to eat it too.
There are numerous ways to get to 20 quickly and efficiently if you desire to do so. There are also ways to flowersniff to 20 and hit all of the content without much repetition. Making the content "more challenging" is just a ruse that powergamers use when their intent is "Make it seem like its more challenging, yet in reality it will be much easier for me." If these changes were made I could cap a TR2 in 1 day if I had a good static group. A casual gamer will never see Gianthold because of their inability to consistently complete content on elite difficulty.
But hey from a selfish perspective /signed. Give me the easy. I look forward to TRing all of my toons in 2 weeks LOL. Turbine will sell a lot of hearts of wood to me!

Aren't you one of the people who said that Turbine shouldn't force people to play a certain way (i.e. only on Elite)? How is this any different? It's forcing people to play a certain way (i.e. don't go into quests at level or below level because you'll need that XP later) already.
This proposal does not ADD a play style requirement. It CHANGES an existing play style requirement.
I think the main point (of the post you quoted) is not the lack of planning part. The main point is: If you want to TR multiple times, you'd better run only quests at, or better yet, below level.
Choosing a "let's see if I am good enough for content which is designed for characters 2 or 3 levels above me" approach will not be rewarded. This is a pity, imho.
Yup, that is what happens when a player ignores the incentive structure setup for a system. The entire problem with the TR system was summed up fairly well by your response here. A player challenged themselves and instead of getting rewarded for it they got punished for it.
An xp penalty system (that equated out to the same number of normal quests runs as the current system or dramatically less elite runs) would solve this as would an xp bonus system that did the same thing except by keeping the current TR xp to cap.
No one should ever be rewarded more for doing something easier. That is the nature of the complaints about the TR system and the root of all of it's problems lie in Turbine's overall screwed up incentive structure for xp. Even a rather slow run of an elite quest above your level should net you better xp/min then a fast run of a normal quest below your level.

Sure, sure

Regarding the double tr thing; I would quit the game before doing that amount of reptition per character. Also they were over level for over half of the quests they ran. Most of the exp stuff they used were to nullify the level penalty and repetition penalty. What they are saying is if you are overpowered, a quest is easy. I agree. It sure can be. But that is true everywhere.
I again don't think tr's need to worry. With the points you earn in your first life, you can buy the packs to tr over and over again. You just won't be epic geared.

Look, all I'm saying is that having to plan carefully is not fun...
I have guildies who were running Vale... My guy was 15 and a double-TR... I couldn't afford to run with them... I had to save that exp for 17-20... I'm locked into running Gianthold and Orchard at 15...
Once you get past 12 on a double TR, you have to constantly plan it out...
That's not fun for some of us... especially us semi-casual players who don't play the same character 7 days in a row at break-neck speed... My TRs take 3-6 months to cap because I'm playing 5 different characters... I have multiple TRs running at the same time... Having to remember what quests they've done and what difficulty is a pain.
See, that's ****... We CANNOT take on a challenge, or we're screwing ourselves later... What you do is the EASY button... You never challenge your TR... It's all about speed in leveling.If your guildie decided it would be a good idea to do vale quests on elite at level 15, then that is his fault.
There has to be a way where those of who want to try a quest that poses a challenge aren't penalized... The super-fast TR power-gamers are pure EASY button players.
And THIS!
No one should ever be rewarded more for doing something easier. That's my main complaint...
Let's go with extra bonuses whenever a TR runs a quest above his level... Then the EASY button players can continue to run NNNNNHE on quests below their level, and those of us who want to push our characters a little can still get enough xp to cap easily even if we go into Vale at 15 (the horror!)
Without having read the 10+ pages I just have one comment which has probably already been made and that is gamers will game. I like the concept of the OP's proposal the problem is people will figure out the elite quests that give the most xp, but do not represent significant threats/takes about the same amount of time to complete on elite as normal. A great example of this is Shadow Crypt. There is not a huge difference between normal and elite shadow crypt for spellcasters so you know people will be farming that one even harder then they will now. Perhaps people will not be hitting up monestary elite, but instead they will choose others quests to farm instead. All of this will take less time to cap trs then it does presently (assuming xp is always 1.9 mil for trs) probably about half the time it does now which is good or bad depending on your perspective. Turbine will have to work on correctly balancing a ton of elite quests regardless if it did this. I like the proposal, but feel this propsal would have worked better at the get go instead of a year or two later then when True Reincarnation was introduced.

only if non-vip have to do normal+hard first. non-vip shouldnt be able to open elite without unlocking it or payiing for it first.
i think non-vip just want this to be able to open on harder and grind for tp faster/easier.

If the opening on elite (or hard on TR1) was restricted to TR's for non-VIP's that would be a truly horrible way of grinding out TP.
You can read some of the existing threads on the efficient ways of grinding out TP, but in essence it involves making a veteran toon, zerging out elite content with an elite opener in party (generally an alt on another account), and then deleting the toon and doing it over again.
