I think it's a lost cause...for some reason people are arguing those high level stat padding skills are nessesary. Still haven't quite understood their logic? It won't change level pace whatsoever for anyone if it was balanced accordingly it would just fix pvp/champ elite le se Titan hunting and potentially other aspects I'm neglecting to bring up.

My argument is more about fairness then necessity. You want to weaken players below you. You readily admit it will cost more for those players (what was it? 20-25 fsp?) to hunt with equivalent skills via the "generic" way? Balance is great! If it's done fairly. You are not interested in having this applied from this point forward. You want it retroactive so other players below you have more of a struggle or pay more. Wow... those first 2,800 levels were way too easy.. lets make it harder for everyone else so they have more fun... me? oh don't worry about levels going forward, the most important thing is to fix the 2,800 behind me.

 

Do a poll. I'm sure it will be as wildly popular as your titan CD idea.

 

lost cause indeed...

I completely disagree with your suggestion. Let's just slow down progression for all the lower/mid level players when all the EOC crowd got there easily? Ummm how bout no. Maybe we just need to slow the amount of content coming out for EOC and rework on the early content a bit more. All it seems to do is benefit those of us who have EOC members in our guilds for racing to the top Guild rankings anyhow. It's all we use the new content for, and have been for 3-5 years tbh.

 

We've added almost a thousand levels of content since the first 100 levels of content was "accellerated" and people at the top are proposing ways to make it even MORE of a grind for lower levels than we all had? Again....No and a thousand times no.

 

If things like this that slow progression through content for new players are enacted, making it even MORE implausible new players could ever reach EOC, I guarantee myself and several others not only would, but I promise you WILL walk. 

 

The objective should be to make things more appealing to new players, including not making it an infinite grind to EOC for people who are giving a stagnant game a shot. Not a tedious hassle and extra gold for people selling SSI on auto-refresh just so people can say "Is moar challenge now tho bruh"

 

Pardoux, I like you and respect your opinions on a lot of posts you've made, but this is one I UTTERLY DISAGREE with you on and see as something bad for the long term prospects of the game.

Of course he does, so do most of the top few guilds. They already have a huge chunk of the EOC in their guilds, they don't have to grow their own like we have had to do because they were able to bribe them all or flash the gear they got with shadily gained RP and script abuse.

Hi there.

This thread is descending into bickering and flame baiting.
