How do levels 15-20 go compared to 20-28?

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum...

I'm pretty happy running epic past lives but am contemplating doing the iconic/etr combo. How is that grind from 15-20 (3rd life and beyond)? How would you compare it to levels 20-28? i.e. Those 5 heroics levels = how many epic levels?

For some context:
-I haven't done heroics in a looong time
-In epics, I generally ETR and redeem sagas straight away. I generally runs sagas on EE for fun. Do some xp grinding quests (von3/wk/spies) on easy difficulty when time is short
-I use one 50% pot per life, 20% pots the rest of the time.
-Am VIP/have tomes of learning etc

Thank you in advance for any advice.

They have added a lot of content in the 15-20 range. I used to dislike the 15-20 range, but it is not so bad now. On my current life, I even skipped heroic gianthold completely to save the first time run bonus for the 20-28 portion. I may make that my regular pattern as I go through the rest of my ITRs. The other experiment that I did was to not switch to epic at 20, but continue to do the level 18 and 19 quests on heroic elite.... That part was good for favor, but not so good for experience.

My suggestion for a quick 15->20 is to just play through each quest once on heroic elite. It seems to be more than enough experience and is still pretty fun. I've toyed with the idea of stopping at 14 to pick up some of the quests in that range with level 15 banked. Will try that next ITR.

Thanks for the reply - I misunderstood the Iconic process, so gonna skip anyway.
