Orcs in Everfrost give the same faction hit.

Less populated zones? No i dont agree with that at all. Outdoor zones only or stay away from popular dungeons? Yes.

I power level a lot in DL, FV, and LOIO. I broadcast in the zone i am PLing and that everyone needs to call camps and group locations so i know to leave mobs in those areas or stay away from them completely. There are ways you can do it without being a prick so no i dont agree with PLing being banned from populated zones.

I'm pretty sure the staff won't side with a power leveler over a group of levelers?

Also it's really funny you posted this video because I was just here this morning and this same couple of people were power leveling. I started hitting mobs to get weapon skill and get "don't you'll ruin my PL" /rolleyes
High level characters have just as much right to kill things in a zone as anyone else. You on the other hand don't have the right to hit whatever mob you like, particularly if you're interfering with exp from mobs they claimed (kill stealing). I'm not saying that I support PLing in high traffic zones, but to say that PL'ers camps aren't valid is writing your own server rules to suit you and that's not how it works. You're wrong.

I used to PL all the time on my Druid years ago. Have not done one PL in more than a year. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

There is just too many people on now not to piss off a bunch of people doing it. No more, but Velious opening maybe a different story for awhile. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Seriously though, whatever. I agree with you about setting up camp around them. I mean, don't sit ON top of them but they aren't camping that spot. Just my opinion.

Only time I experienced a PLer that affected me was when I first started. I was in WC and was going to pull the orc camp (solo or group, I wasn't there yet). This low level Ogre who had pretty much 100k (figurative) dumped on him was being PL'd by his 'afk brother' if I remember correctly.

I asked if I could join but alas, he wouldn't have me.
LOL my two experiences with PLer's were also" I'm Pling my brother" as well. I sent them polite tells stating i was hunting in the zone also and asking them to leave mobs up and that I was moving into a camp and they were very polite and moved further along and left me the camp.

I don't agree that PLing in some of popular dungeons is wrong because I like to explore and hit the out of the way dungeons and don't want people moving in there to PL, they should stick to outdoor zones.

2 years ahead of you Swish!

Also Cecily I don't think you are wrong per se, but most of those powerlevelers are trying to hold down 10 camps at once anyway.

The problem is that if PLing is sticking to specific camps, then it's not really PLing so they end up snaking mobs from other areas whenever they are up which causes a drain on the groups that are trying to play using camps.

They're still in there. I wonder how many people came, saw few/no mobs up and left by now...

yeah I hate people that do this. It really shows how they don't give two shits about anyone else. I ran into a really nasty couple a few weeks ago in Unrest, peak hours of course.

Don't hate the player, hate the game. It's all the ZEM master's fault [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
