EZ Server

Ok so now that we have to spend a way longer time grinding I think there should be a change to the level requirement of PoTimeA to about 60.

When grinding and not able to progress character in any way for long periods of times it takes away from the fun of progressing your toons. If there was a lower req for potimea then we would be able to progress but to a limit giving a different and more fun aspect to leveling toons at higher levels grinding to 70.

Some might say that this wouldnt work out because then people would have epic 1.5 or later at early levels but also if this was a problem then you could leave the limit of doing 1.5 at 70 and just lowering lvl req of the zone potime.

Some people may not like this idea but im sure there will be a good majority that would enjoy this change without throwing the balance of the server off and even fixing the balance of the drop of xp rate.

I'm not one to flame, it could just be the liter of tequila that i drank tonight.

This post made absolutely no sense! WTF is wrong with our schools? Kids can't even type out coherent thoughts nowadays.

Good Night and Enjoy!

Probably slightly off topic, but the exp rate hasn't changed, at least not in our point of view, considering players have much better gear and spells than when EZ Server started over 3 years ago. So just kill higher con mobs for faster exp with all the great gear available.

Enjoy!

So, did the xp rate change recently or not?

Rocc0....don't hate on them, though i agree! They are the only ones that have the patience to farm Lguk and Superior lightstones all day long.... We needs them :)

So, would you consider making PoTactics into a higher end Exp zone? Maybe even cons to lvl 70? Could be much like Fire, only harder hits and more exp gains. No bodies and loot.
Also accessible to 47+ like Fire

I'm new to this server, but attempting to kill red cons with gimp SK dps is no fun.  :-\ This seems like just another reason to start boxing.

Unfortunately I don't have any t4 toons, trying to play catch up just got tougher. Been trying to RoA my pally from time to time, well 1-47 takes over twice as long as it did just a couple days ago.

Please Hunter put exp back where it was.

That answer from Hunter was very vague.  So Hunter plain english.  Did you guys change the numerical value of how much exp is needed or how much exp is given?

Would just become another pofire roa zone. Make it available for everyone up to lvl 69, and be kicked when they hit 70.  and you have yourself an actual low-lvl xp zone. Make them hit less hard than pofire and give more xp because you actually need to fight them yourself, and it's a win!

I was pretty much pitching for a higher tiers RoA zone actually, HOWEVER I do like your suggestion as much or more than my own too. We should do both.

Wonder if Hunter would entertain the idea of using PoWater as an advancement zone. Maybe not T6 or anything, but useful for advancing your char somehow. Would be challenging for sure. Trying to box underwater, needing an EB item, etc...

You can get EB out of AA's. Boxing underwater is as simple as adding a UW tag after your /stick.

T5 is only a pain because it combines both - a pure underwater zone will not be that much of a challenge.

S'pose you're right on both.
Was playing Shards for to long to remember I guess. Completely forgot about EB AA, and didn't know about the UW after /stick tbh.

So is that a yes or a no? Everyone has said XP is at least twice as slow... will you please either confirm or deny that you have lowered the amount of exp earned?

Obviously it changed.

It has definitely changed.  Hunter sort of answered the question.

I surmise that because of how fast someone can level from 1 to 70 with the right setup the exp requirements have changed relative to where they were a month ago.

However I think that this change's in inadvertent effect is that new players are suffering to level their new toons because they are not using "another" toon to power level themselves.

I know people will say "Make friends blah blah blah".  I think that we have a better way to tweak EXP without killing the new player.

The kobold quest helps in the late 50's all the way to 65, but I think maybe a quest specifically for low 50's would be nice.

There is a quest for each range of levels.  If I remember correctly, that would be killing kobolds in velks.   Not really worth it at that level, as the kobolds blind you a lot, and you end up dying with no idea how many you have on you  :)
