I ask this because I watched a buddy go from level 220 to 231 in about 7 or 8 hours. I was in a different game and I only leveled 4 times. I would like to know what is going to be the new normal.
I'd recommend to stop doing this, Vaneras pointed out they're looking into this and if people go too crazy on this it might get them banned.
On topic: It depends a lot on playstyle, gear, spec, and a bit on luck. It's almost impossible to ask for average or "what's normal". Don't be too concerned about being average or above average; I have no doubt we'll see paragon 800 people in the not too distant future (either due to cursed chest runs, or just people who are really determined).
People with 10 times more paragon levels will not be ten times better (probably not even twice as good, at least not solely based on their paragon traits).
I did 5-8 runs today but now i'll stop.... it's soooooooooo boring. And i think i get waaaaay less loot than doing regular farm runs. I just don't care that much about exp but i care a lot more about my drops <.<
Im pretty sure Cursed Chest is the fastest way around, by a large margin, there's a stream of a guy at level 300+ getting a level every 20 mins. It's more efficient because it's broken, because the chest is right by a waypoint, so people just keep making Torment VI games with 4 players and do the event, and remake. It's extremely boring, but it gives crazy XP, the event alone gives something like 15millions XP, before monster kills get counted, or something around this, so yes, it's very hard to compete against something like that. It's so efficient that Blizz is considering options as to how to stop it, ban, rollback or just nerf it to the ground.
I wouldn't be surpise to see an hotfix coming up in the next couple of hours, and then we will see if players were penalized/rolledback for abusing it. I wouldn't recommend starting now.
I went from 58-62 with some hours of playing and farming around with friends.

If you want to arrange it
This world you can change it
If we could somehow make this
Christmas thing last
By helping a neighbor
Or even a stranger
And to know who needs help
You need only just ask
Cursed Chests are not for loot. They are purely for experience. Doing them on T6 in a full party killing on avrave 120 mob will grant you 100m experience we found. We got better at it over time and started getting more, but you need some seriouse damage output to do more then say 170.
We had all 4 people spawn their own game and look for a chest, usualy we found one of the first go or atleast on the 2nd. Very rarely (i think twice out of 100 paragon levels (20-120)) we had to start a 3rd game. When you can do a run on avrage in under 4 minutes then the experience gets rather crazy. 1.5B exp pr hour with our speed and i know people have done it faster

The levels will come when I'm facerolling T6. No need to rush it.
it will be hot fixed by blue tracker yesterday! clear, no more shortcut, focus on your build and drops.

222 is impressive. We were getting ~160 consistently on T6.

I couldn't even find the room in the entire lvl3 for 5 games.
