Lightning Strikes Event

[Alhanelem]

FATE difficulty
As we go through each phase, we’ll be having some high level FATEs; however, we’ve balanced them so they can be cleared with only four people, so don’t worry if the amount of participants decrease as the event is wrapping up.

Maybe you should balance them so they can be cleared with a few hundred people, so that the event isn't so trivial.

What about those of us who are alt-a-holics and would like the outfits on all our toons?

The game was designed to cure Alt-a-holicism by allowing you to play pretty much all content with one CHARACTER If I see any cartoons running around i'll be sure to let you know though.

If it was designed to cure Alt-a-holicism we'd be restricted to only being able to make one toon per server. Most people like to look at different things while they play through out their time on this game. And.. those who RP also take on different characters for a different out-look on a story.

People can do more characters, because SE know that people want something like this. But you get rewarded if you play only 1 character with a cheaper monthly fee.

And that was originally the case. There's a difference between punishing you for having more than one character (as XI did) and *encouraging* more than one character. The game was designed so that you could experience literally everything other than the first couple story quests (which are mostly just a tutorial anyway) with a single character.

As far as your complaint, there's nothing stopping you from getting the items on all of your CHARACTERS. (People have gotten level 50s in a matter of days before anyway, so it's not like it's not possible). If you can't do it, well, it's your fault for creating too many characters and not having enough time to play them all.

This game is not a cartoon, therefore they are characters, avatars, personas, etc. but they're not "toons."

THESE are toons


This is not (retarded gear aside)

Anyway, there's now reason way anyone/ anywhere shouldn't be lv.15+ or lv.25+ for that matter. Causal should at least have a lv.50 job by now, let's be srs about this.(it's not like anyone will be ignoring this event...or will they?)

You obviously did not read my post.

Can you please tell me how? I can play only two hours a day, and lv36 is as far as I got. Please tell me this awesome secret to get to 50 in a matter of days.

Two hours a day?

Go to the major fate chain areas, at your level it should be Corethas, join a fate party. Spend the full two hours there, when not doing active fates, take your party to an area where there are a lot of monsters and kill them until a fate pops (Monsters must always be above your level). DO NOT WAIT IDLE AT THE AETHERITE LOCATIONS! You should always be trying to earn EXP during the times and going to FATEs as they pop.

If you are seriously not gaining at least one level per session, sometimes two or more, then you're doing something very wrong.

Are you trying to make him hate the game and quit because FATE grinding at level 36 on your first job without the 50% XP bonus is a sure way to do it. Unless he doesn't mind leveling up at the expense of having fun of course.

He wanted to know how he could get it done, I told him the surefire way to do so. But if he still has storyline quests to do, that should be first priority, as well as all quests around his level range. That will give him the most bang for his buck if he teleports around.

He's got 11 levels to go, and a little under a month to hit 45 and do the last mission in it. Sometimes, you just stick your nose the the grind stone a while and get the rough stuff behind you.

Otherwise, he can level at his leisure, knowing he's got until Feburary to get to level 45. No real excuse there. I'm lucky if I get a full two hours a day an I hit my first fifty not long ago. (Though I'm one of those odd ones that don't mind doing FATES, so long as you do something in between them.)

It'd be great if FATE's scaled with the amount of toons. Also, some people just like rolling alt toons. I'd rather re-do all the story quests on new toons than grind FATE's to level all the jobs. That's just me though.
