[dev1011] Grounds of Valor

[Kimmie]

Figured this should go under bugs since grounds of valor itself is a bug.

I was thinking about leveling another character but my favorite leveling places are now far to exciting.

I don't like fighting 3 of this enemy then 2 of that one then run back to a book to get another "page". I want to clean the tunnel of all goblins. The possibility to get bonus "something" for each set of 5 or 8 i kill wound be nice. That way i could keep moving through the dungeon.

Either way the inner horutoto ruins has to change back to the leveling ground it once was. I'm not sure how i will manage to complete certain quests and missions otherwise.

@Zaknafein and OP- I am getting sick to the back teeth of the use of the words Retard or Retarded. Please locate a dictionary and wrap your brains around what they mean. Zaknafein if you have nothing constructive to say, keep lip zipped.

I concur, however proper spelling is the path to enlightenment.

Greetings Kimmie!

The thread was moved from In-Game Bugs over to General Discussion since it is more related to feedback/suggestions. While we do not have a direct section for any gameplay suggestions, general discussion also serves that purpose. Thank you for posting!

Man, could have fixed the spelling when you moved it.

Anyway, we either need more Grounds Tomes or just to have Magian Spec act as summonable Grounds Tomes. The latter option would be badass and should be instantly implemented everywhere, but it's so obvious an option that I think we can take the fact they haven't done it as proof that they'll never do it.

retardation: lack of normal development of intellectual capacities

So the OP is saying that they believe the Grounds of Valor to be lacking of normal development of intellectual capacities. Which it does, as it's counter intuitiveness in how xp grinding works in the given areas could very well be defined as "Retarded". There's medical terminology, and negative slurs. Stop being offended by a medical term.

A) Retarded. Unless you mean that you need to tart the zones again, but I never realized it was tarted before and then taken away.

B) Nobody is forcing you to do Grounds of Valor. The book is just a suggestion. You don't have to do it if you want to kill one type of monster. All this little "event" is doing is making you fight different types of mobs so you can know how and the best ways to kill that type of mobs. Fighting birds? Use a polearm or any piercing weapon. Fighting skellies? Whack them with a club or any blunt object. Fighting slimes? Kill with magic. Fighting....what's weak against slashing? Ghosts I know of, but what else?

C) Again, who's stopping you from spending all your time in Inner Horutoto Ruins? Except exp caps.

I agree with the majority of your post, but this one I can answer - a good portion of the area that used to be valid for solo levelling in lower (12-20 or so, maybe) levels is now filled with level 80-90+ mobs of the same families. I've specifically seen this in Beetle's Burrow, but I dunno if it's in other areas of the ruins also; I do know that if you keep running towards the Three Mage Gate, you'll eventually hit lower-level monsters again, but not quite of the same level range.

To be more specific: the area that was previously populated by stuff like Goblin Ambushers/Butchers/etc. and similarly levelled monsters has been repopulated by higher-levels, while the slightly higher-level Gamblers/Leechers/etc. are still in place further in.
