Yes. I would leave, and so would many of the people I play with and am guilded with. Then many others would follow when they realize how trivial what they've worked months for has become as well as a long list of other negative ramifications for making Everquest into something it was never meant to be - easy.

nobody is asking to be able to ding 50 in a day. obviously you are making exaggerations to try to prove your point... regardless, for some reason here i am giving you the benefit of the doubt and explaining that obvious fact to you. wait, did i just get trolled?

feel free to look up the definition of trivial if needed. increasing exp rate will not make eq trivial in any way.

Explain to me what is difficult about repetition. Convey to me how pressing a few buttons a hundred thousand times is challenging. The only thing I find challenging about it is making time to do it.

bingo. leveling in eq isn't 'hard'... its 'tedious.' nobody is asking for ez eq.

Okay, as devil's advocate, explain to me what is wrong with being in your 30s? Does PvP in EQ only get fun at 50?

simply that there is no server population in the 30s. pvp is at 40+. that's why we all want to be 40+

Thats exactly what you and 10 other people that cry daily on the forums for the last 6 months want.

Exp has already been increased quite liberally and it did next to nothing for the server population, just like other pvp server failed to have our numbers with super fast experience. Its been tried, it doesn't work, so stfu already.

Tho the issue is Nirgon, nihilum would LOVE this server if it was just them logging in and killing bosses every night with no one else on it, so they don't care if the server pop is 200, 150, 100, or 30, as long as they can get more pixels that don't matter in PVE, with the exception of mistwalker and main tank loot, not to mention you kill almost everything with charm pets.

So says the guy thats been getting rolled daily on all his character for the last 6 months, who also farmed more lower guk than any other person on the server except Natural.

Not even your own guild believe the rhetoric you spew on the forums.

you clearly don't know nearly as much as you think you know.

FYI i'm new to the server. Started here less than 2 months ago. Myself and 5 other friends started because of the initial xp boost.

Now a month and a half into it we are getting bored because we are still only around the mid 30s and because of this, haven't gotten to experience any real pvp. Now some of our 6 are beginning to log in less, eventually its going to be a group of 5, then 4, and so on and so forth... perfect example of how the population of this server goes. groups of friends start up with great intentions and enjoy their initial time here only to realize that the time it takes to grind to 50 doesn't mesh well with having family/work/life in general outside of EQ.

tl;dr people come here for pvp, and when they realize that the prerequisite to pvp is 200 odd hours of tedious griding exp to get to level 50, they lose motivation and stop logging in.

I don't understand... this is classic EQ, didn't you know this coming in?

I agree. I think it took me 2 months to get my first toon, a Druid, to level 13 in 1999. And I played a lot.

Hahha, yeah, after a solid two years of playing and a billion alts, I think my highest character was 28.

I spent more time farming for things than actually leveling, what a blast [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

this is NOT classic eq. ask the devs. its mostly classic- but custom in a few ways.

Hence the reason why the red server already has bonus exp......

I'm not voicing an opinion on whether red needs faster exp, I'm just pointing to the fact that people are complaining they're losing interest in leveling in classic EQ, when it was their choice to start playing here in the first place. It's illogical and a fallible argument.

That IS the problem. Too many understand it and CHOOSE not to play anymore.

Instead of further bumping exp, just make grinding to 50 FUNNER.
