    I must say I was astonished when I got from level 46-49 pugilist in less than 3 hours from xp chaining amaljaa camp near broken water...that's too fast.

    Now whenever I reach level 50 on DoW I'll think "nothing special about reaching the cap, anyone can do it within a couple days now". I'd like my leveling not to be like 6 months non-stop FFXI grind parties, but it should take a fair amount of time and actually make you feel like it took some effort.

    Gimp xp gain rate plz.

    There was never anything special about reaching cap. Ever.

    I think the age of grindfest MMORPGs is past. I think 1-50 is just fine, but when they increase the cap I hope the new levels take a lot more. like 49-50 is 100k, I'd expect 59-60 be something like 500k. Either that or slightly reduce the amount of exp players are getting from monsters and increase quest exp.

    500k exp under the current system is 5 hours of grinding roughly

    which isnt too ba for a 59-60 grind

    its pretty much what im getting at "if" they keep the current leveling scheme

    there is no excuse for people to basicaly "start" at cap cuz its so easy to level and there is no real effort or time involved to do it

    Which is like 2-3 days to a casual player... Or if they stick to leves. 83 leves, say you can do 3 an hour thats 27 hours. spread across play times of about 3hours max almost 9 days for 1 level

    Is it wrong I can now enjoy the game?
    Is it wrong I can now play with my friends?

    Why would I be jealous? Come on, don't be like that. I will soon have a 50 of my own for battle and I leveled it the proper way for the most part until this uber xp was introduced lol. I'm not jealous. It's wrong because it isn't the target any game maker should have for their leveling curve. You don't allow someone to "beat the game" in 4 days. Yoshi has already said 4 months is a good target for cap. Not 4 days.

    You must know, in the back of your mind, it's wrong to cap out in 4 days. As much as I'm sure you like it. I like cigarettes but fuck if they aren't going to kill me one day.

    you cant judge speed based on the ammount of days it takes to reach
    its all about time

    you cant reward people for having "less" time to play, otherwise it shortens the life of stuff


    5 hours is not long at all to reach the FINAL level of the game, thats the whole points, it the "final" level right
    once you reach it, until they raise the cap, your done with whatever your on as far as leveling

    so what if it takes some people a day and others 3-4 days to reach, 3-4 days of doing a small bit each day is more then reasonable to do it, its not like that makes it unattainable or unreasonable cuz it takes a few days of very little playtime to do
