    I can see the hardcore player not agreeing to an increase in the leve timer.. But a hardcore player will still have the option of grinding on regular mobs in between leves, and he'll still be doing that even if the timer is increased. What can be done though is increase SP from regular mobs a bit more.

    Also there needs to be way more mobs to grind on than Raptors..

    I never grinded on normal field mobs to rank up, and i still made it to 50. and it doesn't have to be a local leve or a gathering leve to craft and gather in the spare time, grinding on field mobs is rather pointless unless you need certain mats.
    Right now, the current change in party size HELPS the casual player. try a 4 man party and see how wicked sic the sp is. It is much easier to find 3 other people than 14 other people, so wait times for parties is reduced as well. Making any of the changes i mentioned wont break the game for anyone. And according to the players poll, 58% of voters spend most of their time battling. So why not increase the amount of leves we can do per reset or decrease the reset wait time?

    Well its a rare thing to please everyone :P

    In all honesty though SE would be better off listening to the hardcore gamer IMO as they are the ones playing the game the most and tend to stick with it for the long term.

    Casual players on the other hand play for a few hours a day and tend to leave when the next best thing pops up.

    If Casuals don't want to play long hours then thats fine, but hardcore shouldn't have to pay the price for that.

    Casual players are more likely to quit when they start charging us too, lol.

    I dislike that our guildleve reset is based on server timers. I'd rather they be reset based on player timers. This worked well in FFXI with Assault. I can get my token at exactly the same time from the last time I used it (24 hrs), which words best for people with consistent schedules. Having to plan our time around these timers set by the server really allows us to have very little freedom. I mean it's like I have to do leves within a few hours after the reset to have a group to go with. Otherwise most people will have done their leves by the next day.

    Not really, nowadays, casual players trend to have more money to pay than hardcore one. (look at Nintendo Wii for example) One of my friends rarely play MMO, but he pay month fee every month without any issue. And since those play so slow, they have less complain and they pay the fee for longer lol.

    I don't see how you guys are blowing through leves and doing them so fast that you have 30 hours to wait <_<

    I play pretty much all day for 12+ hours a day and I get 1 free day every 2 days to do something besides leves ._.

    The leve reset timer is waaay too fast even for someone hardcore. Are you people soloing leves or something? I'm leve linking BW/halatali/levinshower leves and that takes pretty much 4-6 hours to do @_@

    I wanna do stuff besides leves but I rarely get time to...
