Tanman - 11/5/2006 10:24 AMBut thats the beauty of the whole thing now. Even though you are level 12 and you have developed a story around them through RP, there are so many opportunities that are now open to you. You can partake in CDQs and draw upon certain events IG that just would not have been possible fopr others that level very quickly but do not document anything at all.Just because your character is level 12 doesn;t make him or her a lesser character to someone that is 18 or 19.
Niles09 - 11/6/2006 9:31 AMThats just not the way things work. Your character needs to reach lvl 21 before doing any epic development in his/her story, and quests... Last time a quest actually lay in a time I was able and wasnt locked, lvl limited or I just rolled a bad dice was somewhere around summer.
Strykr - 11/5/2006 10:21 PMI have to say just one thing here. If you wish to level up faster, travel in larger groups and explore tougher terrain. Perhaps the mountains near Valensk would be a good idea. They would be a fair challenge, but doable with a group that works well together, or at least a large enought group to overcome not working together. But if you are off killing ogre brutes and beserkers I suspect the exp is going to slow down to a trickle rather quickly. I now have a fighter level 6 or so and he is approaching this wall. (In fact he has hit a wall as he doesn't socialize enough to find people to group with that often) But take the grouping expiditions seriously. They are a great way to level. Take it from someone who very rarely gets to go on GM quests as well. (Perhaps 3-5 in the 2 years or so I have been around on and off)Eredel
Niles09 - 11/6/2006 9:05 AM Which brings me to one of the extremly annoying things about being such a low level compared to the time spend here. I know you just tried to give a good advice and help, so dont take this personally. What really can annoy me is, when a 14 (or about that lvl) lvl char who have played here for just a few months starts "talking down on me/Zan,"
Niles09 - 11/6/2006 3:05 PMSecondly, I know there is probaly alot of players that will totally disagree in this, but people simply tend to listen more to high lvl chars than low lvl's ecpicially in quests.
ZeroVega - 11/6/2006 9:22 AM(Just an example, Tath talks down to people allllll the time. If someone knows what he/she's talking about, he'll listen. But redheads who call him Duckie will get major sarcasm and cynicism.)ZV-
NEXUS7 - 11/7/2006 5:04 AMwow I go away fro 3 weeks and there are some grate posts here, Thanks to ZV I do see where the team is comming from, For me I think the way to go is just do what I have been doing make fun PCs that work at Levels 1 to 7 and dump them at 7, I have more fun RPing a PC up a few low levels that farming EX to get over the level 9 to 10 hump and lats face it I dont wont to wast my small amount of Layo time doing that. So Ill stick at 1 to 9.To be honest once your out of Hlint there are fower and fewer players to hock up with, on a good night you will have 50 odd on west and 20 on Central and maybe 4 to 8 on east.DM games are out for me I have tryed but one phone call and I have to drop out. CDQs are the same and LORE CDQ is just more time I dont have.Layo is for players who have hours of RL they can put into a PC. I think i have been here for about as 18 mouths, Yes I have had 8 PCS 3 main onesRosa, Mille and Spugly.Mille's locked in CDQ hell.Spuglys looking at the 9tht to 10 level hillSo I play Rose which is fun when she hits the hill Ill drop her and make a new PC.I ahve done all the level 1 to 7 quests 8 times each with RP and each was fun.What Im getting at is, when I play PnP 4 hours of good RP = some thing for your PC, an object, level, life event.4 hours of layo can be two trips for iron, a chat to ozy, Helping some down the red mines and a lot of walking about.at then end your 0.01% closer to level 10 and 400 coin richer which you pay out in healing kits an the like.Playing a lower level PC means 4 hours = a level or 1/3 1/4 of the way to a level.My weeks gameing is not a pointless act, that RP meant some thing to the life of my PC.I love RP thats what I do, ask any one about my PCs, I dont patrenice new-bes I help, I dont stunt RP I join in, and I start RP if every one is standing arould looking bord in Hlint I will kick some thing off. Becosue I love RP, read my logs.Now I know the wall is there and is there for a good reson i feel a lot better, I will stop worry that it was some how my playing that was lacking.As a low level player who only adds a small amount to the Layo Pie I still think you guys do a grate job, GM team and the big players who put in the hours.HummMy be I should start a low level group who only play levels 1 to 9.what you think.
