Get kids addicted to fast exp pop raises times get hard 95% of those people quit and now the guys with 12 level 50 alts now have 24 level 50 alts.

Lower exp and bring back exp deaths on pvp imo.

Hi,

I see a lot of people log on during the Euro prime time, go lfg for 1 hour, then log off as they have nothing to do.

Same goes for lowbies, they go lfg but can't find anyone in their level range able to get to them, then they log of discouraged.

A solo xp bonus would be a solution here, as people would at least be able to make some respectable xp while lfg.

Xp bonus difference between groups and solo is huge atm, should be NP to bump up solo xp by a bit while still keep it far inferior to group xp.
Ive proposed this like 5 times, it makes sense, it would totally help people stick around until someone else logs on, but dont hold your breath for changes for the better. You have to kick and scream here for months to get things done.

The idea of removing xp loss in pvp was poopooed by Sirken and Rogean for months, if not a year+ "This isnt CoD, lol". They only changed it when server was dying at 50-75 accounts logged peak. With server doing good i wouldnt expect them to do something like this, but who knows really.

Also alot of the community are idiots and only care about themselves, so will try to push for as slow a progression as possible for new people, in a self-serving way, even if its detrimental to server growth, like it always was.

You serious? All you need to do is find one other person and you have a group. Even 2 warriors can take turns tanking and use bandaids to heal up. Or any spell caster can lock down aggro and kite mob useing strafe while you beat down on it from behind.

Aggro kite with ranger or druid + anything can work

If you have plans for a pure melee, it should include pals

If you don't have pals around, play a caster

At least all the zones are wide open for ya @ those hours?

Also gotta take advantage of the cash camps coming up that yield tremendous xp:

Diseased pelts in qhills
Willowisps in NK for GLS turn in.
Bandits in NK/WK for bronze weps and sash turn in.
Bandits in lfay for bronze. Move to nybright sisters after.
Gargoyles in oot
Teach mas gnolls for gnoll skin turn ins in qeynos.


Leveling solo sucks. Even 1 partner adds lots (see above) but you gotta work at it and scrimp n save

Yea man, I can solo whatever the fuck I want, noone on. True story. Can camp frenzy for 5 hours, noone ever comes in Lguk etc.

All this shit is great in theory, in practice the players just aren't there.

When it takes an hour to find a port, 20 mins to get a bind and then a 20 min run to get to the camp, people log off.

Server is a ghost town during weekends on the off-hours. Just want an incentive for those people to stick around a bit longer, level a bit faster, then get involved.

This and all the rest doesn't matter.

Guy logs in, doesn't find a group, logs off.

Repeat few times, guy doesn't come back. Who can blame him?

Can't believe so many people fell for such an obvious troll.
