maybe its just me...but is leveling too fast in your opinion?

[Irana]

I think the main reason why we keep getting so much stuff to do at our current max leve is just because people can blast form 1 to 50 in 2 weeks if they are hardcore players (some people may take even less...)

What is this causing from my point of view?

A) People skip over the lower level dungeons like totorak and whatever the other with the lone coeurl is.

B) Low level armor seems way too expensive, because they dont take much time to level up and because you can equip gear from any level they rather just not buy anything unless a friend buys it for them.

C)This causes a complete mess in the lower levels economy, crafters just will not craft low level gear.

IMHO, leveling should take a slightly bit more...or at the very least give "required level" to all pieces of armor to help move the economy along and let crafters earn a bit of money (I am not a crafter I just fish and cook but its clear even to me that there is no demand for low level armors or mats for low level items).

This all seems pretty stupid a point to make when Im level 50 but I been taking a look at how the world is moving (at least in our server, Selbina,) and its really painful to watch.

Well, they are in a weird position as most players already have the majority if not all of their leveling out of the way. At this point, it will be incredibly hard to please everyone. If they slow it down too much, new players coming into the game will be pissed if it takes forever to catch up with their friends and there will be the players who will feel like they missed out because they didn't catch the boat when leveling was easier etc...

They need to strike a balance and make sure players have methods besides grinding and leves before they slow it down too much imo... They need to ensure leveling can be a fun process for everyone, and have plenty to do along the way... Maybe in 2.0 ^_^

Expensive low-level items were definitely an issue when I came back last month. I remember seeing a crafted piece of armor that I wanted going for 150k...not an HQ, and (obviously) not an NM drop; I believe this somewhere in my teens...16 maybe?

The other thing is *lack* of low-level armor, or any armor up until 40ish really; that's really what pushed me to grind for hours on end, just so I could replace something I had been wearing for the last 15 or some odd levels.

So many times I would see an upgrade available only to click on it and seeing it was actually someone equipping it on their retainer for 999million.

Slow down the leveling post 50 and give us level sync!

[Wolfie]

I feel it's appropriate now given that there isn't really much you CAN do at low levels.

I guess we will know when they show us the results of the poll.

I think its wayyyy too fast when you consider Power-levelling although think its about right when you take that out of the equation.

They need to remove PL and add level sync in my opinion, some more low/mid ranged dungeons would be nice also.

There is several reasons why gear isn't being purchased at low levels, the main one being power levelling, you don't even need gear to be power levelled, the other is that gear doesn't make a big enough difference to bother upgrading.

This can be solved by again removing power levelling and moving the majority of base stats over to armour/weapons.

Personally, I think even regular party leveling is too fast, especially the higher level you are which is backwards. Once you are 45 it takes around two to three hours in a Natalan party to cap.

I'm confused how people can say levelling is too fast....if you can't find a party for grinding or even Leve's and do it all solo, levelling is a slow pain in the ass until 35+.
And then I'm confused as to how levelling is too fast when really all the content is aimed at 45-50.

So the idea is:- let's slow down levelling, making it take even longer to participate in the engaging and fun content, if infact you have the patience to withstand an even slower levelling pace?!

Yea I'll pass! Leave it as it stands or if they remove the whole PL thing speed up the content-less lower levels!

[LegoEgo]

the easy solution would be to increase the exp required to lvl at the higher lvls.

[TheVedis]

Leveling is definately too fast as is

However i believe that when we get a level cap raise, the ammount of exp we get will stay as it is now, but the exp per level curve will be very steep in comparison(im talking 200k exp for level 51, and only going higher from there)

id be satisfied if they did that
