Times assume you play 4 h a day. Rested experience builds up while you are offline, so the less you play per day, the more Well Rested is worth.
Buy in this order
Each time your account earns a point, buy the next row. Each row shows your time to 60 with every point up to it. Talented moves your first talent point earlier, so that column drops from 10 to 5. Savings under 15 min are within the sim's noise (shown as ~0).

Well Rested Your rested experience accumulates 4–20% faster and your rested experience cap is increased by 4–20%.
Talented You gain talent points every level starting at level 9–5 instead of starting at level 10, but you still may not have more than 51 total talent points.
Thrill of Adventure You gain 1–5% of your maximum Health and Mana over 10 sec each time you deliver the killing blow to a non-trivial enemy. Ineffective in dungeons, raids, and battlegrounds.
Earning points
81 points can be earned, but an account can spend only 16.
How this is worked out
- Each first talent level (10 down to 5) has its own talent plan, simulated level by level. Levels before it are played without talents.
- Thrill of Adventure takes 1% of max health and mana a rank off the rest after each kill (it heals over 10 s, during the walk to the next mob).
- Rested experience: Classic rules (5% of a level every 8 h logged out in an inn, up to 150%, double experience from kills). Forever's server may differ; the game files do not say. Well Rested adds 4% a rank to both.
- Grinding only: quest experience is not doubled by rested, so for a quester rested is worth less than shown.
- The talent plans are not redone for each Thrill rank; a rank changes rest by seconds, not which talents win.
