 I just think it's odd because in me2 (at least on ps3 not sure if the level progression changes with a real me1 import) u can get to level 30 easy and I assume u can get to the max level easy in me1. I know this probably isn't the case but like bioware knew they were going to have dlc and saved those last five level progressions for single player content. How far did u get? The only way u can get to max level is if u import ur shepard again

You can easily reach level 60 if you import from ME2, no DLC necessary.

Obtaining max rank in ME1 was actually very time consuming. It required nearly two 100% completion playthroughs.

If you import from ME2, you can start at the same level as that save file, up to level 30. If you start a new game of ME3 (level 1), you can get to around level 40 without going too far out of your way. So a ME2 import can make reaching ME3's max level much easier.

If you imported a game and started at 30 you can easily get to 60.

The trick is that you get bonus XP when you pick up medigel and you are at max medigels.  It will give you 150XP bonus.

With Ashes and Leviathan you can actually hit 60 before Earth.  If you have no DLC whatsoever I doubt you can do it in one import, since with Ashes only I could hit 60 midway through No Man's Land.

I remember needing 2 playthroughs in ME1 to get to 60, 2 in ME2 even with a level 5 ME1 import to get to 30, and 1 in ME3 with a level 30 import or 2 with no import to get to 60.

In ME1 you could always do the Therum mining laser EXP glitch to get to level 60 fairly early, but other than that 2 playthroughs was mandatory.

I'm in the same position as the OP - imported a level 30 ME2 character, did every side-quest possible, scanned every planet & such, collected as much medigel packs as I could find and finished the game at level 56. I do have From Ashes installed, do not have Leviathan.

Question for those who get 60 in 1 go - do you ever buy the upgrades to increase your medi-gel max? Or do you leave it at the base level? As that's close to the only thing I can think of - I always bought the medigel max upgrades when available. I also possibly missed some medi-gel dispensers around the place.

Also, do you get bonus/extra xp from medigel, and missions & such, if your playing on insanity rather than normal? That could also be why I only reached lvl 56 as I played through in normal difficulty rather than insanity.

Total medigel capacity is irrelevant.  If you are "full" on your medigels then whenever you pick one up you will get an extra 150XP.   The base amount is 150XP for medigels in the red packs on the ground, and 300XP for the ones on the wall.  So if you have max medigels (regardless of what your total capacity is) you will get 300XP for ones you pick up off the ground, and 450XP for ones that are wall mounted.  I do not think this is difficulty dependent at all.

To get to the first question, no I never buy medigel upgrades any longer.  I also basically don't use medigel the whole game.

It is easy to miss a medigel or two, but if you have Ashes installed you can miss several and still make it.  If you have Leviathan installed as well, you can miss a whole lot more (as in I was hitting 60 on Cronos Station instead of No Man's Land).

I never played the game through without Ashes, so I am not sure how much that affects the final level by itself.

In ME1 it wasn't possible to get level 60 in one playthrough (the jump from level 58-59 is about the same XP as what it takes to go from 1-45) and ME2's level cap was ridiculously low (IIRC you could max it out before you even met Legion), so neither of these assumptions are relevant to ME3.

That said, in ME3 it's quite possible to get to 60 in one playthrough.

Strange thing happened to me: I normally hit level 40 at the end of Sur'Kesh, after doing every quest available until then (including "From Ashes"). Many playthroughs, always this point, so my Medi-Gel XP apparantly doesn't change much. Without Leviathan, i always ended up at Level 57 on Earth.
However, one time i delayed "From Ashes" so i could visit Eden Prime with Ashley. And i still hit level 40 at exactly the same point. So either i'm crazy (i won't deny the possibility), or my Medi-Gel usage was vastly different in this playthrough, or XP for DLC is weird.

Err... so, you got to level 40 at the end of sur'kesh (doing the missions you say probably works out at... what... 15% through the game?) and another playthrough was 40 after Priority Citadel II (at least 50%?)

That might need a bit of testing. I typically always do From Ashes well before Sur'Kesh (latest I'll do it is straight after Menae... I want Javik and the PArticle Rifle) so I can't really say I've noticed the XP rewards differ.

No, I meant I hit level 40 on Sur'Kesh, no matter if I already did "From Ashes" or not. But probably i should look at the save again, just to verify I'm not mistaken.
(Vancouver, Mars, Sanctum, Menae, Grissom Academy, Sur'Kesh itself; that makes 6 of 26/27 missions, plus most Citadel quests in the first half. Maybe around a quarter of the game).

There isn't anything that is weird that I have noticed whatsoever.

Certain plot points in missions will award you XP, and as far as I know that never changes.

Missing medigel pickups can make a substantial difference in your final level depending on the frequency.  And medigel consumption will also make a difference if you use a lot of it.

Also don't forget that side-quests will also award XP, so if you fail to do them, or do them in a different order, your leveling may appear somewhat different.

If we got to level 60 in one playthrough (assuming you carry over a level 30 Shepard) then with the DLC for ME3, it'd be like ME2 with the DLC where you maxed out 3/4 of the way through the game. And frankly that bugged me a lot.

Why? I liked being able to actually use all my maxed powers for a few missions at the end of the game instead of having to play NG+ to do it.
