Leveling is braindead

In Vanilla, you actually had to grind mobs to level at certain points, as there werent enough quests back then, unlike now.

Bro.

This was early in vanilla. There were nowhere close to enough quests to beat grinding. World quests didn’t exist and elites would take too long to kill and not worth the time investment vs killing weaker mobs.

I did not even go into the physical health issues that plague my daily life :rofl: !

But yes, computer games of all types, and to an extent “physical boardgames / RPGs” will give us divergents, and everyone else too, tools and strategies that apply in “The Real World”, making life if not easier, at least bearable.

Too few people are actually willing to make that effort though, kinda sad.

Alright - why have some things when you can have all things.

I don’t have the nerd cred for this.

I prefer reading a lot though.

I cannot know, I did not play back then.

But I do take new characters in there when I feel the need to “get a break” from M+ dungeons with my main character (this one, Beast Master), and I always choose “the hardest way”, because for me the time investment, long as it is, is actually rewarding.

Well, now you know - you had to sometimes grind mobs for multiple levels to be able to continue.

Several medical doctors and specialists have compared my mind and body to “Pompeï, after the volcano eruption”.

I still manage to get a decent quality of life, but it’s a constant, daily battle against myself before I’m ready to face the world, and then I have a very close limit before I’m drained and need to get back into my “hermit cave” to recharge.

Yay ! Another bit of knowledge to add to my growing Encyclopedia WoWica :star_struck: !

This is where I live - nobody allowed.

Great.

I dunno. I wouldn’t be an mmo if they removed leveling in it’s entirety. It’s not too slow but it’s long enough to get a feel of your class.

It’s possible I’m a minority but I kinda enjoy the leveling process and would love that they enable Chromie Time until lvl 70.

Would be an absolute waste to have no reason to go into the world and experience some of the more iconic questlines. My opinion at least :slight_smile:

As I said - don’t overestimate new players abilities. He didn’t know it’s group quest, he just went in there (as a hunter), but still couldn’t kill it in several attempts. Some of us are mmo veterans who play 20+ years, and we know everything from inside-out, but completely new players in the genre don’t. Something as simple as kiting for us, might not be that simple who played mmorpg for 20mins.

Lveling difficulty is good as is.

Read the quest and you’ll see [3 players].

Should’ve been able to do so then - but then again, not sure if you can heal your pet at that point, so fair enough.

True, I’ve played for 13 years, and I’m not that good at kiting myself.

He said he saw 3 players, but he didn’t know what it meant, and since there were no other players around - he just went in and tried.

Oh and he didn’t use his pet at first, he put them in stables (he thought you need to do it so that later they grow into mount).

I will repeat 3rd time - you overestimate how much new person know and how much can he do. Not everyone is god-tier gamer with 30years of experience.

Anyways, he said he will not continue, since it’s overwhelming how much stuff he needs to learn.

Okay, this is funny.

I might, yeah, and I’ll admit it.

Levelling is redundant. Max level could be 10 and the game would play exactly the same.

I too like JAWS.

Both the writer and director of jaws have come out stating that they regret making that book/movie, because it did nothing but cause irrational culling of shark populations worldwide.

Ooof… It’s a MOVIE people, for crying out loud!

Don’t want sharks to bite or eat ya? DONT ENTER THEIR BLOODY DOMAIN!

Bloody being the operative word here … sharks can detect a single drop of blood from miles away, and as apex predators that must always move (even when sleeping) just to breathe (they don’t have gill muscles to actively pump water into their system), they are always hangry (choice of word deliberate).

Kinda fascinating as a genus and species, they basically have not evolved for thousands of millenia, and they are still one of the most dangerous and efficient marine predators … intelligent too, and with a form of communication marine life scientists are just beginning to decypher.

Aaaaand I’m off on another tangent … gotta get ingame, I have weekly quests to finish today !
