Success = DO THINGS EXACTLY AT YOUR LEVEL

Hello all...WITH EACH MAJOR PATCH TREAT EVERYTHING LIKE A NEW GAME!!! The enemy pre-patch though identical in looks in post patch do NOT equal.

There's a lot of players complaining...and they need to know a few simple changes since patch.

The most important thing is to KILL THINGS AT YOUR LEVEL. There's no more of the I'm level 1 I'm going to kill a level 10. While you might have been able to swing that b4 there's no point to do that now.

In fact enemies give more XP at 1 level above you more then they did pre-patch. People complaining it's difficult to level because they trying to kill a level 15 mob when they level 10 go kill level 10s!!!

Example: Pre-patch kill a mob 8 ranks above you get 250 SP. Post-Patch kill a mob 1 level above you get 300 XP. See the difference? So fight a mob at your level or below you doing well for yourself and progressing at equal pacing if not better then before.

Remember everything got tweeked! The mob you killed pre-patch is though looks identical is not the same mob you kill post patch.

They moved mobs to pockets of 1 to 2 level differences as you move further away from the main city each pocket of enemies increases in difficulty. We asked for this type of mob placement so we all know how to progress and understand as we get stronger we inch our way further from the main cities.

Other key notes are chain when possible to get more XP. Equipping gear your level is essential as well. Remember to keep your gear repaired!

I didn't post this for you wise one. Most who understand the changes that have been going on understand. We who have followed since the beginning. However, those new or recent coming into this patch don't understand the fundamentals behind the changes or how to adapt to them. I'm just trying to make it simple for everyone whose frustrated.

I'm just trying to make the point that the game while not "yet" graphically changing, the insides are those nasty numbers we don't see. So a Dodo today is not the same as the Dodo of yesterday. The problem is people think since they killed it before it should be the same...but it's not. It's interesting how people refuse to adjust with a game that still is in adjustment with some 50% more major happenings. If you think the mob placement is a little whacked consider that they may have placed the mobs for the next major graphical patch. Like New Gridania!

yes.. there is several threads about this as well. thank you :P
