Repetitive grind parties should NOT be the main source of leveling

[Scape]

I have a feeling that people will complain no matter how many different ways they give us to get exp.

I mean really, Repetitive grind parties should NOT be the main source of leveling? But repetitive leves should? At least we have more ways then one to level up... which, are basically the same thing just in different forms.

Maybe as a way to encourage exploring the game world part of the zone redesigns could include a kind of zone-wide puzzle/ treasure hunt. Follow some clues, do some exploring, see cool new places and pick up some trinket. When you've completed all the hunts in a given zone the trinkets combine into something that you either turn into an NPC for a cosmetic item or something along those lines. Maybe in some cases the combined item is your reward (ancient chocobo armor anyone?).

SE could have a lot of fun with something like that, there are plenty of ways to make it interesting, obviously its not a core issue right now but it would encourage people to get out and see things when really there's no reason to right now other than to say you've done it. People like novelty items. Over time real content could be added out into the far areas of the zones. When players are out doing their hunts a little extra exploration would have them running into some real content.

You obviously haven't read enough posts I've made in this thread because you just assumed a plethora of things right there. Please think before posting. No where did I endorse or support repeating leves mindlessly as a better alternative.
