Mages are up shit’s creek I guess

And how is this thread 39 pages? I said on page 2. Just pay the trainer moneys. Then get the mats. Ezpz. If you want mage as your first class then level it as intended. You shouldn't be complaining about needing to level research anyway. Mages are braindead easy classes with as much depth as Senna's comments. All you do is sit there. In this case, you sit there and complain.

Your knowledge of this issue is grand it would look like.
You think with your blue experience, green dosent work like this.

Also the training part isnt really the problem even tho it caps very low. Materials don’t drop and you need around 12 different item per combine attempt on the last tier (not counting scroll)

10 the previous one, 8 the one before etc.

Good thing most wont stick to mages else all the lower zone would be perma raped by material seeking magicians.

Don't forget the very high Mage population. Not only large overall but also in respect to the population of the class during Classic.

ALL of whom are going to be searching for these research components.

Good thing according to the various counts post on this page its the least played caster after wizards.

But yeah, its more mages than at launch for sure. Big change for me i usually level a cleric first all the time. Mage looks like a fun class.

Obrae hitting the nail on the head

And all these classic timeline concern trolls dont actually care about said timeline, they are just pissed that some mages can level fast, to the point of them wanting broken mechanics enabled

What a puzzling stance

Not like we won’t have 5-6 level 50 really fast. It would be just more fun to have the components at least drop like the other classes. Ultimately all kill have the potential to be glorious if words and items drop a little bit.

Leveled 22-29 killing non-stop 24+ in groups ( sola, lguk, najena and mistmoore). Spent more time in sola and lguk.

During that time we got
1xword of dimension.
3xgloves of rallos zek
1xjade shard
2xpearl shard
2xice of velious
2xword of trenscendence (not for pet, still cool for food and water 20 stack)

We got around
30-35 runes maybe more
20-25 pages
60-80 necro words

So 2 long industrial killing days in group, 1 single word for pet lv 24. Went to another lucky mage.

We will see if coercion is as bad, still ned dimension anyway since previous tier spell scrolls are needed for all pets.

There defenetly is not a 2% drop rate on words for mages.

Oh yeah word rates for Mages right now are extremely low. And I don't even play a Mage

This pretty much mirrors what I saw during the beta.

Sounds pretty terrible.

If you're a mage and you haven't stopped playing yet, now is a pretty good time to do that.

I never solo so it dosent really affects me that much, but i did start my necro earlier than i anticipated.
