Find the silence very odd

I wonder if they brought exp chaining back on mobs outside of leves with a bonus which would equate to that of leve links and/or aspect if more people would do grinding parties.

Iunno, grinding isn't that bad, it definitely isn't anywhere near the 60-90k in 1-1/2hr to 2hrs every leve reset, but it's a good consistent 18-24k an hr.

I'd still welcome back exp chaining though hehe

Make it so Synthing doesn't reset your chat log after every synth action.

Are you low level? People basically don't group at all until level40 leves at ~35 for some unknown reason. Go to uldah and spam shout if you're 23+ and link some 30 leves. If you're not 23, go do behest until 20. It takes less than a day to go 1-20 doing behest/leves.

It really upset me that no one grouped and just solod when I was leveling up too, then once I was able to do 40 leves I noticed EVERYONE groups and pretty much no one solod anymore. Leve linking 30 leves is just as good as 40 ones, so I don't get why people don't party for them :/

In every MMO up to this day there would be thins to do were you would require others to do it.

I pug leves 100% of the time and always get 8 people. I spam shout and use the party search function, so this is wrong imo. Leve linking should always be done, even in complete pugs.

Yes, I am low level atm - which is why I was asking. There seem to be people in the area but even when I have asked a question about something (after having looked on the net and got no answer) I very rarely get a reply.

Also - re the Barrens chat - not looking for that lol - but the game is SO quiet compared to any of the other dozen or so MMOs I have played (some of those for many years).

But thanks for all the discussion in reply to my post - lots of food for thought.

How low level? 1-20 takes a day like I said, get to about 25 or 23ish then you can party off leve linking 30 leves.

Sure sure, everyone but you must be noticing just how silent thins outside linkshells are + the lack of parties.
