Well, I played games in which I had to farm months same dungeon and same mob, to get one point more of armor. And a die means 1% exp loss. And 1% means another two months of farming. I know very well what I am talking of. But, have done it, does not means I liked that so much.

I think the new generation players cannot even dream to get a Reborn 99 Priest on RO (at the times I were playing, dunno if that gone easymode then).

Back to topic, if 5% is so much elite that don't find this game challenging, that does not means other 95% must get lost. As a casual player (at least, as playing time, which is about 2-3 hours a day, and maybe some day I don't play at all and go eat Pizza with family and/or friends) I'm happy to have a way to get some of the endgame stuff, thanks to tomes. I am not willing to play a game who require more dedication to start endgame content, because I am one of the players who have something else in my life, and playing a game means having fun, not a job in which I have to dedicate my whole life to show off my gaming friends how much I am cool with that coolest Weapon Of Doom I got.
