So i hear alot of people saying you cannot Power Level on Uthgard....your all wrong, i have tried and tested this method....


2 x Animist (make sure main turret is out of line of sight of mobs)
1 x Menta (crack)
1 x Lowbie Character


i started of in DF (when hib had it) took me around 2hours to get the level 1 rogue to 20, constantly spamming pets and waiting on respawn, the trick is not to rush and not to Overpull, when playing 2 ani's u must keep the pets as far from eachother as possible it is a good way of stayin alive if all goes tits up, and by keepin ur main pet turret out of line of sight u literally give all the exp to the lowbie character, it makes cap exp everykill.

i havent had the chance to carry on PL yet as we dnt have DF, im guessin when the lowbie reaches around level 35+ the exp will be gimped abit because of the aparent exp ratio.

altough i disagree with PLin i dont like how low the exp rates are here on Uthgard.

Ive been playing Uthgard for some years now i have 3 Veteran Accounts and the only class ive managed to get to 50 is Animist, and thats cos its an easymode class, i know the uthgard staff dont want people being 50 in weeks etc but cmon guys the exp rate is like in the minuses sometimes, it took me 12hours of flat out grinding to get level 20 solo on my warden and that was a waste of time and effort, imho if you have a level 50 on your account you should be given free /level 20 on all other characters made on same acc/realm i mean its not as if we all havent done the whole level for years scenario!

yeh yeh uthgard is "Classic" but there is classic...and then theres classic.....lol, on the Live Classic servers it wos quite hardcore but here its over-hard-core! ive seen some players log in at level 1 and 2-3 hrs later they only just hit level 5...its awful, i know uthgard has a big player base now but most people have others to play with, i myself have no1 so i normally play solo and solo sucks, the Uthgard team should look to make the exp ratio abit better for people solo'ing then maybe people wouldnt quit after 2days.

and one thing i pretty much know for sure is that the GMs here dont level their playing chars...why would they take the time to get to 50 like normal people when they can easily take server down, open without public access and then free level 50 thier toons...cos if i was a GM i most definately would.

**END OF WHINE**

Uhm, what is this topic about? That PL is possible or that it should be easier?

Anyway, the staff has a strcit no buffbot / no duallog / equal-chance-to-everyone philosophy, so I really doubt they would take your feedback to heart.

I'd still up the XP rates by about 30% at least. Not gonna happen I guess.

the things you ask for will never be implemented, sorry this is Uthgard not easymode live

/level 20 ruins it for all new players = dead server in the end
if you don't think solo is fun then grp, tbh you can even at US hours find 1-2 to grp with + the player base is growing so more and more will be there to grp with

and doubt the xp rate will be upped.. if you grp more you will level faster.. consider it the staff to force people to be social (imo not so bad)

staff insta lvl to 50? no.. have never happend and will never happen.. but they do have lvled from 1-50 quite a few times .. all of them

Live is Easymode? rofl.

/level 20 doesnt kill a server it makes it easier for those who have already spent months getting level 50 with another class.

and yeh i doubt the exp rate will be upped, but it SHOULD be! how is exp harming the server? its doing more worse than good, countless times ive been ingame and the whines i hear when people first log in is crazy, PEOPLE HATE ****** EXP RATES! end of!

and yeh the staff have leveled to 50 with the /player level 50 command, that is a guarantee!

im guessing they have so many 50's they dont need to level at all, i bet they even give themselves ****** gearz too, rofl, its like owning a cafe and not drinking a coffee for free...get a clue boy.

equal chance to everybody? ok then they should make it so you cannot group at all wotsoever, that would be more balanced than 3vs1 etc etc that happens constantly, and as for the no buffbot no dual log, that is absolute turd, if u can dual boot u shud be allowed to, if u can use a buffbot u should be allowed to, just cos some people are peasents and cant afford a half decent PC doesnt mean the ones that can shud be punished!

I fully agree with Kalic on this one, the guy has a Clue. unlike most of the server.

oh, I'm quite social
yet I had trouble finding anyone to group with yesterday in DF at primetime (the server was full at the time!) on my scout. And I used witty jokes to get people to invite me. I also tried with /lfg well geared tank or dps scout lfg and /lfg geared out full shield scout lfg.

no invites in two hours of spamming.

edit: I just logged my scout in DF and before I could even move because stuff was still loading on my slow notebook, I got zerged by mids. Since my lowly notebook at work cannot handle RvR and soloing without any bonuses is slowly killing my braincells, I'm switching to WoW till I get home

Amadeth its because the exp rate is so dire people MUST solo...they say groups is best way but they are Wrong, because they have gimped the exp so much grouping sucks the exp pool dry, ive tested it myself, i have my own Local Server i try things on, they are not treating anyone equal, like Df...who has Df most of the time? HIb and that is because the staff characters are all Hibbies....fact!

If they just left the exp as default for the Dawn of light core...there would be no problem at all, but they havent they have gone and added and/or removed code that should never have been touched.

Sir I salute you. That's a lot of bullcrap in one post.

/removes hat

sorry dude, but you're out of your mind.
group Xping is by FAR the best method of getting to 50. even duoing with dps/healing classes you'll level faster than solo. and forming a FG and chaining/mass pulling is uncomparable to anything else. not to mention how much more fun it is.

as for the Hibs owning DF... LOL. actually Mids have the greatest numbers and own DF most of the time, but the difference is not that great. and I assure you the staff aren't abusing their powers. maybe things aren't 100% balanced, but situation is getting better and better.
do you know any staff member's character? you're just delusional

top tip:
befriend a paladin.
a good paladin with a shieldscout next to him and you can build a group however you like to have it.
a pala/shieldscout duo, you cant get any better defense.

i for one take a shieldscout over a arms or merc or pala (as guarder) any day.
dont even need a cleric for a small tank group, really. a friar suffices, 2-3 damage tanks to top it of and presto.

or 1 pala, 1 scout, 1 cleric, a few bombs and whatever you fancy to fill the group.

just dont taunt anything and concentrate on being the highest dex guarder there is, works wonders :)

I know! but not many players think that way. with the amounts of dex scout can get, it's blocking rates are insane. barely anything gets past my shield.

I sure got past it last Friday night.
