Why should I be excited for Grind Parties?

[Pyrix]

I love the grind. I hate solo play, and I hate quest xp. Quest are for goodies. You work hard, get high enough level, go do a questy thing, and poof, reward. The fact taht some games you can level on quest rewards alone by yourself disgusts me. kill 10, get 5k xp and 5gold, repeatable, kiss my ass. I'm 28 conjuror, 25 marauder, 17 fisher, and 10-11 of most everything else. It's about hte journey, exploring, and player interaction that i like, and is precisely why I odn't like other games.

Hardcore leveling by your way is outdated, I think the only reason why you like that kind of leveling nonsense is some kind of EQ-era Stockholm syndrome for shitty monster grinding exp.
