It kind of sucks being a new player

I just got to 60 and knew I had a ton of catching up to do. Wanna grind out law? Oh well since you're new you need to unlock these FIFTEEN other dungeons to gain HL roulette. Oh you thought you just had to unlock the ability to enter them? No you have to run all fifteen before roulette. Earn that ****.

Now say you get your law and you wanna upgrade it by doing hunts. Oh you thought you just go to the forgotten knight and start hunts? Nope. Gotta go grind your grand company rank and do their whole hunt quest chain. And since you're new you probably didn't save any of those pink dungeon items did you. Tough break, you gotta earn that ****. Dont be so lazy. Anywho Im off to get luck drops in alex that I "earned".

Also those fifteen dungeons don't give experience. <3

You can unlock and do them on the journey from 50 to 60 though? Get experience while unlocking new dungeons and then by the end of it you can revisit everything via roulette. True, it means that you have to step away from the MSQ for a bit, but if you take, like, one dungeon-unlock per day it should be more than doable? And you get to change the scenery up a bit and take a break from the story :x

But they give green gear that she can trade in her GC for seals she need to rank up in the GC for hunt.


Clear every day 2 dungeons (they only take 15 minutes) and at the end of the week you have it. Don't force yourself to clear everything in 1 day.

Why? I can do 51-59 dungeons in 15 minutes and get experience for it.

Or do low level roulette, and most of the time get a level 51-59 dungeon.

I can do a level 51-59 dungeon and get 450k experience.
I can do a 50 dungeon and get 0 experience.

=D

Why? They are fun dungeons. AND you need them to unlock the roulette. If that's not reason enough, then don't bother, nobody is forcing you to do them, you won't lose much by not having HM roulette, and you can just do a second Expert roulette instead, just slightly less LAW, UNLESS you get a new player bonus.

I think that this is the problem

I didn't had all the HM dungeons completed at the beginning of HW, so I needed to do them, and even if they were amusing they felt too unrewarded. No experience, no useful gear (Actually, I get some pieces for posible glamour) them felt like I spend 30 just to check a name on a list

A new player has to do EVERYTHING most of us have done since 2.0 launch. Being new means you HAVE to catch up to us. It's part of the game. #getgood

"Man it sucks having to do what everyone else had to do to have what they have!"

If you don't even enjoy doing something as mainstream as dungeons for the first time, then to be honest, MMO's might not be your thing. I'm not saying quit, but it's something to think about. Don't force yourself to play something you don't like. I don't think it's healthy. Unless you secretly love-hate it, like I do sometimes.

First time I entered those dungeons, I enjoyed myself thoroughly. I like raids and other content way more, and, after a few times, dungeons get dull. But if I was new, damn I'd be excited to have all that content to try. I'm sure that's the reaction the devs expect when they designed them.

Want i180 law gear? Grind it like all of us had to do. No other way of putting it. We all had to grind it out.
