Does this mean that the grind from 45 to 50 will be shortened too? Or do the older players just get a double dose of "you've got to be kidding me?"

 

I know there will be detractors but I see this as a good decision. If they didn't do this, the player community would be diluted across a wider spectrum of levels. For servers that are tiny like Tegan, that would mean even more crickets and tumbleweeds in some urban areas. Getting the bulk of serious players up to 45 prior to the level expansion 'should' cluster larger pools of players for the xp slog that lays ahead.

p.s. Folks hovering at 30 or below, please level up now. The pvp Bear is not worth it. Move on and get on board.

 

This is gonna benefit people currently at around lv40 (duh) but also possibly anger fresh lv45s because they had to do it the hard way (but hey, you're there already, so no real reason to whine). I, for one, am pleased since my remaining 1 and a half level until the current maximum will thus be smoother . Now, as Darwarren said, hopefully this applies to the future lv50 expansion, so we don't face a 10x harder path from lv45 to 50.

 

Imho instead of changing xp per mobs kill between L36 to L45 (for L40-L45 progression), ye might be better off tweaking quest exp, so that whenever all the quest at the level bracket is completed, at least 80% or more of the exp bar is filled. I find it crazy to grind gorga and temple / upper atlantis sweeps when only half the bar is filled on quest completions.

Grinding 2-3 bars is doable imho, but 5-6 bars out of Gorga is ........ (pop quiz, the meaning of doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results)

 

I just hit lvl 43 and was prepared for the long haul to 44. Glad to learn now it won't be that long.

 

As someone who is half way through lvl 44, I can appreciate the change, but instead of lowering the amount of exp points needed, why not just add more quests?

 

i used to grind 3 lvls from gorga (39-42)

 

Am hoping I correctly understand feedback.


If the exp required for level 45 will be reduced and the already 45s keep the exp they earned... One would think that once the level cap raises to 50 they would get a boost. Say level 47 right out the gate.

 

Although one downfall is that now you will level faster, and with decreased drops of useful items, one would fall further behind at lvl 45

 

I was thinking about this... but at least you'll get to lv45 faster and you'll be able to go to PWs with the other cap-level players and drop lv45 items, so that might balance it out.

 

Lol, bro, that was a strong direction to those doing bear quest, yes ... we got what u mean, thank you for the valuable advise

--MERGED--

definitely this added xp will make u less run in maps making it less a chance to get items of good status, and heard lvl 43 items like shield etc are more good than lvl 45 items, saw some of them and my self got two lvl 43 shield which as of now nevr got such a stat in lvl 45 shields, so some will miss that but hope all lvl 45 can farm more in pw and get more good items and enjoy the end game and pvp more. welcome move, and i think the management is more improving by its more quality decisions. keep it up.

 

good idea,now u won't have to grind thunder crest.

 

Sounds good but we will have to wait and see.
Sure it will be of benefit both for the new and the old players.
Now I can level up to level 45 my every toon before I delete it.
