    Where is the logic behind this? You can be skilled without killing the same things for inordinate amounts of time? Of course! But I can guarantee 99.9% all those skilled players have been playing stat based MMOs and RPGs for years. That in itself is a grind. They know what they are doing because they have done it before a million other time in a million other games. The problem is the new people. When you new it something it takes PRACTICE. So let's talk about PRACTICE.

    A few of the most acclaimed skills in today's society...artwork, professional athleticism, singing, public speaking, and acting. How do people get good at these things. Yes, many are born with a natural born talent and understanding but it is by no means given to them.

    How does one get good at painting? They paint a boat, then they paint the same thing but better. And again and again and again. How do professional athletes practice? They focus 90% of their time and effort in the fundamentals. Passing, dribbling, shooting, running, jumping, ect. How does one get better at singing? They sing a song, then again, but better, and again and again and again. How do people get better at public speech? They practice the same speech in front of a mirror for hours a day, days on end until it's perfect. How do people get better at acting? They take the scene and act it out a hundred times until its perfect.

    They put in all this hard work so they can be the best they can be when the times comes.

    There is no easy way to increase your fundamental skill at something. If there was a way around having to work to be good at something then life would be pointless. Yes! This is a game and it's supposed to be fun and enjoyable, but it should also take time. Even though there are many of us who can be GREAT at it without spending countless hours. But there are also just as many if not more who can't. And it isn't fair to be shot to the top of something past everyone else in a game just because of how "awesome" you are. Or how bad it hurts your ego if you aren't.

    TL;DR
    If you want to be good at something, it will take hard work and time...period. However, I agree it needs to be fun and enjoyable because this is a game. And you don't deserve to be pampered for being a better player. (Rewards excluded of course)

    If you don't want to spend a large amount of effort into increasing your character's power. Then be prepared to sacrifice you characters worth and the quality of the community as well.
