What drives you?

Does anyone actually enjoy sitting in one spot doing the same thing over and over and over 100 times just to see the xp bar move slightly? Surely that's not fun? So what drives you to push through? Do you think about being level 60 with epic and use that as motivation? Do you see yourself one day raiding somehow? What is it about someone's mindset that allows them to keep going in this game?

This game shines when you are in a group. The combat pacing allows for social interaction with your fellow group mates, it makes the game 100 times more fun than any of the modern MMOs. Now if you are set on just soloing (similar to every other MMO out there) then you will need to find fun in other ways...take on challenging mobs, etc.
