How am I meant to level with a friend now?

[Warp]

Pray tell. What is fun leveling in a MMO then? Gaining SP for everytime you teabag someone or something?

The grind isn't always meant to be fun, it just needs to be rewarding.

Why even bring up the teabag thing? Grow up.

Depends what kind of grind. Mindlessy killing the same mobs over, and over, and over, and over, and over again. Fun? Not a chance. Good luck trying to sell that game to the audience that SE NEEDS in order for this game not to get shut down.

There are a quite a few very popular MMOs that have a rewarding, lore-filled, exciting, content-rich leveling process.
