My Day-1 post-merge experience

[Naxy]

Was in Upper Guk, which had more people than a few days ago. Started a group with a Shadow Knight. We crawled around for a bit until we found a spot with mobs. Added a necro and a shaman. Had a good time. Felt like classic to me.

Hey Naxy, I was the necro in that group. Good times. I also think I was in Rathe Mnts earlier with OP, though I was camping drakes and it is a good quiet spot.

I did see a lot of OOC coordination to kill named HGs.

Only real difference I've seen was there are a lot more folks in the EC tunnel selling stuff.

I've been able to find groups with no issue in my 20s. I'm very much enjoying the game so far. My only problem is always a problem since the beginning of the game and that's over pulling. There always seems to be a couple groups in the dungeons that just try to pull absolutely everything which throws the whole zone off balance. It happens in every dungeon. Then there's the soloers who randomly pick off mobs in camps. Basically it causes an endless cycle of hostility in the zones. Can't say I'm annoyed by it but don't fight violence with violence is what I'm getting at I suppose.

It's because you get better exp mass pulling blues/light blues vs moving to next dungeon/area that is just as crowded and the mobs are harder. IMO should be a exp bonus for encouraging harder content. IE pulling 1 red = 2 yellow = 6 evens = exp of 12 blues = 50 light blues. But that just isn't the case.

I'd agree with that change if they implemented it. Although I'd tone down some of the bonus a bit, since with a full group even untwinked it's pretty easy to take down reds and yellows.

Good to see you!

I feel a bit slow, having only reached lvl 26 yet. But I was about 30-35 when Kunark came around the first time. So I am still classic. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
