[dev1134] Guildleve Revisions

[Delmontyb]

I like the idea of storing up leve slots and then running a lot when I have time... Based off my schedule I'll always have leves to run when I'm online now, as opposed to having to wait for a reset, or feeling like I have to login to run leves or I'll be missing out.

When this comes out, I might hold off running leves for a week, just so I can build up my slots and then start running them and always have a nice buffer.

I don't think LS's recruiting based on what days you are available is a bad thing. People already have LS's based on time zone. I don't know how any of your 1st Cons counts as an exploit either, except possibly the crafting reward thing but if this is in place as is the devs have already taken it into consideration. Your 2nd con is probably unfounded, since people have different playstyles and most people would have different days they would want to do leves. With more content coming people would most likely be doing other stuff on other days.

However there is also no dead day when no reset is happening. Since there will always be resets happening every 12 hours, some people will keep on top of it and log in to do them whenever possible.

I would say this is true...but given the complaints I have seen about how people think the leves are too bland and repetitious and see them as chores to start with...I would still have to disagree there. I could be wrong about that there is no doubt. Also please keep in mind that there will actually be less leves overall. This will mean more actual downtime during that 36 hr time. Given the ability to focus all of the leves on one class people will be able to go to one spot repeatedly...this eliminates travel time sure but also makes the leves doable in far less time. Also as I said the anima will no longer be a factor...again more downtime. Leves overall will roughly take 1 hour per 12 hour period...at most.

I don't see the point to leveling classes so quickly that you have no idea what they can do, I do not see the reasoning behind saying that someone who only completes 5-10 items over and over and over again (and receive a end leve bonus on top of it as well as guild marks...not to mention it never costing them a single gilother than repairing gear and upgrading gear) should reach level 50 and be able to craft anything else they want and I also can't see why someone would be considered a "veteran" or "experienced" if they never have to leave their home territory. I know these are all matters of perspective so I will not argue over them as you will see them differently than myself obviously. Most of the other content if done by someone level 40-50 would be done within 1-1.5 weeks. Darkhold would take more time (maybe) but I do not see anything else that would warrant a massive input of time or effort for a group that got together 3 days a week. All of the side quests are solo material. The only other thing that might take some time are faction leves. I will not speculate on future content since most of what they have promised is still mechanics revision for the most part. They have not released anything to this point that has anything to do with the main story plot (which was mostly an introduction or a preface to the the main story)...although there is a glimmer of hope for that in the next patch...a year after the fact.

I hope I am not seeming defensive but it may look that way a bit. I am very disappointed with the general feeling that everyone wants to fast forward through this game. I just see people who want to play this game on the side...all the time. They want it made so convenient that it's becoming more of an appetizer than a main course. Maybe I will be wrong and this system will work out great...I could live with that. I am not seeing it but I am big enough to admit that I can and have been wrong about a lot of things. I really hope that I am in this case.

I'm quite happy about this as it means on event days (dungeon runs etc) when I get home from work and log in, I won't have to miss out on local leves or battle leves for a new class I'm ranking up due to time restrictions and ultimately missing out on the reset

I'm sure if it becomes exploitable then they will adjust it, like they have the current leve rewards in only getting SP at the end of a completed or handed-in leve.

if you get 700, you are not doing it from the correct rank range, right now if you do a leves that is too high or too low for you, you only get 25% of the total SP reward.

like u were doing horizon on r13 class.

I did 5 star leve, Solo, with Aspect, at horizon on my rank 25 Thaumaturge and got 120SP a kill, and then 700 reward. Maybe unlucky?

something is wrong but idk what.. but, you should at least get 1.5k for those.. You didn't clear the mobs with r50 class first did you o.o

Was that before 1.18a ? They raised sp reward for lower rank leves in that one.

this i do not believe i need a picture but w/e i do not care. Mab just mab you did 1 star and took 25 mins then i can see that but 700 on 5 star? i do not believe. you get more on harder stars and the faster you do it.

Rank 30 leves give 3-4 k and i never did it on five star and thats without GA. So if what you are saying is true it does not matter becase you need to do rank 20 leves 2-3 times then you are high enough for rank 30 leves

Speaking of Guardian Aspect is the cap still going to be 200? That would be limiting factor. It would be important to use the GA and make sure it is not wasted. Granted it only applies to battlecraft but still.
