The game is definitely more fun to be played with your friends. GoV boost the exp gain when you trio, and yeah abyssea is not everything, you can easily get to 99 doing normal camp using book burning in dungeons - with much better results for skill cap. The problem is finding 5 other players to static, but the best thing about this game now, we have so many options that suits our play style :) Personally I like to do abyssea around level 60s-70s, I mean at the end of the day, I will still have to do skill ups either way, might as well go there with a good amount of skilled rather than start at level 30s.
