So who is NOT getting Heavensward?!

[Nadirah]

MSQ will give xp.

Dungeons will not.

You'll get xp from everything but mobs in dungeons, roulette likely included.

They want you leveling in hw content though.

Actually MSQ will give double exp.

Actually MSQ will give double exp.

Considering it gives *none* ATM, anything over 1 xp is more than double.

Also will give gear apparently. Hopefully nothing unique looking.

For us that's true but I meant MSQ is giving double for anyone behind in ARR whose on quest lines that give EXP.

We still got stuff like challenge logs, leves, MSQ, maybe hunting logs, continuations of class quests if I remember correctly, new dungeons, new fates, maybe hunts will give EXP too(?)

Basically a tonnnnnnn of things we can do for our mains again~ (Personally I am pretty excited by this fact.)

We might know other small pieces HW information tonight but it may not contain certain details like leveling. At 7:30 PDT on the 16th the prelim notes are being read for JP players so we may end up having them released for us as well.

All the people saying they want to finish ARR content before expac. Well.....you better hope coil is lvl synced or be prepared to be booted by lvl 60's doing it for glamours.

Let me reverse that question by asking you which MMO's you've played which have?

Every single subscription MMO ever created since the creation of the genre? Seriously, are you new to mmo's?

I was really heavy on finishing T13 before HW, but then i realized...why do i even care? Dreadwyrm will be obsolete the moment i step into Ishgard and see "Lv52" requirement gear.

There's no real reason for someone who isn't level 50 to purchase heavensward, and there is zeerooo reason to believe SE will ever allow you to "buy" level 50. This game takes its story pretty seriously.

On the contrary, T13 is my only goal left for this game. You're right, the gear won't matter, and that's not what I'm worried about. I just want the closure. Unless they do something like remove Echo, increase ilvl, add a difficultly tier, etc, no one will do BC at all anymore. And that's unfortunate, because there are some legitimately good fights in there.

My point is, I want to beat it while it matters. Then I can say I'm done for real. Granted, if I don't clear it in the next 72ish hours...I'm still dropping XD

To her credit, she's probably new to themepark MMO's. FFXI was not like this. EQ and GW (the original, not 2) were not like this. It's an older style.

That wouldnt be because Rise of Zilart was part of the original release outside japan now was it?


EQ1 WAS like this. No lvl 60 without Kunark.

GW never raised the lvl cap after the original release. The new skills could not be accessed without the expansions either.

deadwyrn will give u an advantage it will be good will level 56 so thats equivalent to leveling 1-25. i think thats not bad. who doesn't want an earned advantage?

[Nadirah]

You're srsly the most pessimistic person in this thread, it's disheartening.

EQ2 added "heroic" characters that start at 85 with 100 AA in like 2011 or 2012, wow didn't until right around Warlods' release announcement in 2014, almost 10 years after release.


I'd expect SE to do it in about three or four expansion packs if at all.
