Naoki Yoshida's Comment in Regard to Jump Potions/Boost Potions

such a bad troll i'm ahead of you in everything undoubtedly

Uh huh. You literally think getting i250-260 gear at the start of an expansion is monetised cheating. I'd love to see you try to string a coherent rotation outside of Palace of the Dead.

it would be a disservice to myself to talk to you more after this post XD

Yeah, you might make yourself look even more stupid.

Yeah, you might make yourself look even more stupid.

Don't bother most people who are against it can't give a good reason besides

1) Leveling is easy (Leveling a 2nd job is easy but being a new player starting from 2.0 takes quite a bit of time. Like yoshi-p said not many people play for numerous amounts of hours)
2) Just increase exp and trim because it's easy! (Which it isn't and will take quite a bit of time imagine when more expansion release you can keep trimming but eventually it will still be long)
3) Story-based MMO (Where only get a few quests every 3 months such story based much wow... Once those are done in a few hours back to battle content like a MMO)
4) It's pay to win! (When you get old expansion stuff so who cares?)

I gave up trying to explain to people why adding it won't do much.

This was me thinking this was a welcoming community loves helping new players guess I see their true colours now :P

I welcome new players even if they jump I will just explain things they don't understand like a community should do and not be a bunch of elitists by saying there should be a icon for who jumped so they can be kicked and laughed at.

Absolute nonsense. Several other ways to alleviate these problems could have been implemented, they just weren't as cash grabby.

So much this. You can just reduce the amount of filler quests in the MSQ then there'll be no need for this. The EXP from the MSQ is huge already so no need for leveling potion.

[Theodric]

Here's hoping players who do not skip large swathes of content get something exclusive as a reward for their hard work and investment. A special mount, minion and title seems fair. I suspect that would serve as a means to mitigate the negativity whilst rewarding those of us who actually enjoy much of what the game has to offer.

Where's your melds though dude? Alexandrian gear? Looks like you have some work to do.

[Deitrich]

Seems fine if they implement this so long as there isn't a huge spike in players not learning to play their job and becoming entitled in the process. Only time will tell I suppose!

Keep it on track guys, you can show passion without being condescending jerks at the same time.

People aren't stupid because they disagree with you on a subjective matter.


I'm impartial, as true as it is that you'd be introducing new players into later portions of the game, we already have to deal with veterans who are worse than most new players on a daily basis when you don't run full premades. It's advantageous to not have to run a lot of filler, but at the same time there's a lot that isn't filler in terms of story AND learning opportunity that would be skipped. The entire situation has pros and cons, people need to stop ragebabying that someone disagrees.

I like Theodric's idea. This also brings up a question. Will people who use the potions automatically get the quest reward items from the MSQ? Like the minions and music rolls?
