First I want to say, I am one of the rare players who actually likes the general design of eureka. I went hardcore and Leveled to 20 in about 2 days and had 2 upgraded weapons and a full set of upgraded gear; probably one of the fastest on my server. I'm not saying that too brag but to make a point;

Zergs have basically ruined eureka. For the first 2 days most people were chaining mobs akin to their leveling needs while trying to spawn NMs. Level 7-12 people were working on dino/callisto/number while lower level players were working on cactaur / bishop and any rare high levels at the time were working on Serket, owl, etc... If a NM spawned elsewhere there was plenty of time to go grab it; and there weren\\'t 110 people contributing to NOTHING. You would actually see more fates spawned than you do now; and have plenty of time to travel. Chain exp is great if you do it right.
