Gamemode XP & Levels
Every gamemode tracks its own XP and level separately. You earn XP by playing, completing 
Weekly Goals, and finishing 
Challenge Advancements. See How Achievements & Quests Work for how these are earned.
You can view your level and progress for each gamemode from the 
Statistics menu in your 
Player Profile.
Your Network Level
Your 
Network Level represents your overall progress across every gamemode on Mythrend, combined. The more XP you earn in any gamemode, the more it contributes toward your Network Level.
Gamemodes with higher XP contribute slightly less per point at higher amounts, so spreading your time across multiple gamemodes is a great way to grow your Network Level steadily, though focusing on one is just as valid if that's where you're having the most fun!
You can check your current Network Level and progress toward the next level from the Leveling button in your Player Profile, or via the scoreboard in the Lobby.
