Indeed. My LSes got bored with beating up high rank mobs ages ago, since they don't give any extra SP and drop worthless items (except for the goblins that drop gold dust).

This is why I really think that some kind of leaderboard or time trial system would go well with the achievements that they are planning to put in the game. Once everyone can see each others' scores and compete with each other, it adds incentive to go out and do things for glory, even if the item or EXP rewards are crap.

Additionally, as is the nature of time trials, it lets players compete against themselves as they try to beat their own best high scores as one of the great challenges in life is not only besting one's rivals, but also besting one's own self as well.
