Red99 Stimulus Plan (some constructive feedback)

JC.. Don't any of you actually read what he wrote? He didn't say make it take less time in total or be a smaller mountain of xp to climb.. He just said to make 1-20 a bit easier and make the other levels a teeny bit harder.

Seems like a pretty good idea to get folks hooked first. Get em to lvl 20 and they will prob go to 50.

This won't happen. Those people who have been here a month, but have not reached level 50 do not want to be punished by having these levels take longer. Imagine a hell level with a 20% decrease in exp rate.

Ok then up it to 50%, problem solved!

Don't want to spend 6 hours grinding to get a level.

IMO, level 1-8 should be increased by 50%. These levels are way too slow for the few abilities and the small area of options you have. Level 9-20 should be 25% and then maybe 15% faster from 21-29. After that, level 30 will test their true ability to "show skill and grind".

Grinding has no skill. Grinding is the most mindless, bluebie, stupid, retarded thing ever invented; the byproduct of lazy developers who did not create enough content and thus have to stretch out the time of a game. It's such a repetitive task lacking any semblance of "skill" that botters can easily program any MMO to do it.

No one wants to grind. If they did, they'd play P99 Blue and stay there. This is a pvp server. People want to pvp, they don't want to fucking camp aqua goblins for 6 hours at any level, especially if you're going to penalize them for pvping by putting in exp loss.

Gonna have to say amen to this as well. Anyone still playing EQemu PvP at this point has earned their stripes over the decade, let's get to what we're all here for: PvP battles. Server pop would explode.

You trying to tell me that people don't die accidentally or run into pvp in their leveling spot by having to stay there longer? Have more chances for certain items to enter the economy?


Go troll WoW devs for faster xp and wtfever those xp booster things for alts were that let you max in a day. Then complain that the game is too easy, has no dungeon groups at low lvls, boring etc, finally return here and throw yourself upon the mercy of the court.

I think "the grind" it's less "pointless" than you think.
