Was considering making a char here to level when I cant find a group on blue.

But with years of exp bonus to the top crowd and then it have stripped of every new player that walks in the door?

No thanks.

I'll find something else to spend my time on.

You will not enjoy the game fighting me naked.

A lesser skilled player in my gear would not enjoy fighting Nihilum.

Mayhaps you can see the logical progression here and where on the beat down totem pole this puts you when you arrive at 50-52.

Super fast XP helps Nihilum farm up tons of alts to loot all that rotting VP gear so they can camp all their alts at raid targets. If you wipe them? They will log in alt wave 1, then 2, then 3... they have way more free time during the day than you. Take it from someone who pulled an all nighter having a battle of the wills with Dekadenz in OOT. He can do that every night, I can't :P.

A classic xp system is good but not with this population, new players will burn out. Their only "massively multiplayer experience" lvls 1-44 will probably be getting unclassicly permarooted and beat down by an earth pet, or getting rooted kiting/quadding reliably after they've farmed up 70mr in resist gear. People saying magic resist is fine believe everyone should have a tcrown or something. What the hell are they smoking?

This post made by someone who can handle truly classic xp (I could easily BundyQuest with a rogue... inb4 wizard), has all of this resist gear and sees the problem.

Dekadenz dont play that much, me neither but we sure have some that do...

Personally i think the bonus should be back as long as there is an xp loss on pvp, though the levels at which this xp loss is felt the most imho (post Hell levels past lvl 50) isnt affected much by it. Good reply though sirken, much respect.

I'm sad that just a pop was steadily rising every day with new players and returning old players, xp gets shafted with the good old "classic" argument. I really don't care about getting 3 blues in 5 hours grouped at 58, cus the dentist crew is fun to play with. But we dont have classic population and newbies getting griefed while trying to solo grind classic xp is a huge barrier to entry.

Sirken spends time holding events for us and I spend hours trying to make fun videos of thm for exposure, hopefully it's not all wasted...
