People Blatently and openly lying about MSQ exp.

[Toothbrush]

I am level 17 and the mobs im fighting are level 17 right now. just finished the plot against Prydwen quest.


So elitists let me get this straight you guys want an advantage at the top THAT Hard huh? that you're willing to openly lie about MSQ exp to make leveling even slower for folks to get to the top? absolute scum and shameful behavior. it's amazing seeing a community destroy itself and the game over selfish agendas.

go ahead and get MSQ exp nerfed and watch the numbers dissappear.

are u ok

[~T~D~]

MSQ is way to much exp, let's talk after you passed lvl 20 lol.

[Feelgood]

Frankly I don't get it, some people say they're 10+ levels ahead by not doing any side content except the MSQ. I've personally done several side quests, several dungeons and I'm 5/6 levels ahead.

[~T~D~]

If you do minor, fishing, gathering, crafting you will be 10+ ahead.

Well I did a few side quests in Windsward and all the MSQ did some crafting and by the time I got to Everfall I was about 8 levels above the MSQ so to say people are openly lying is just silly. The levelling is too fast for many many players. If it's not for you then that's great you can enjoy the game more than a lot of us.

Calling it scum behaviour is a bit harsh, I am now level 30 and still finishing Everfall without doing any of the side quests there which I find sad as I enjoy doing quests and having to stop myself from doing them so I don't blast through is making the game less enjoyable for me.

Not sure how slowing down the levelling process gives an advantage at end game or makes anyone 'elitist' or it's shameful to want to enjoy the levelling and questing.

1-47 in 2 days (that i wasnt dealing with Login block plague) all side quests in the area of main story. Loggin, mining, harvesting on the way. Craft only when full and organize storage. Not hard.

why would people want it nerfed though after your 60 and benefitted from it , sounds bad faith , like a politician who benefitted from a free education then wants everyone else to pay for theres later

Just ignore the troll, he's farming clown awards.

If you do ANYTHING besides the MSQ, be it gathering/crafting, side quests, town board missions, lore page hunting or exploring, you WILL be ahead simply because the MSQ gives too much exp.

Also, it would be easy for AGS to simply add a consumable item that cuts exp gain by 50% for those of us who enjoy slow leveling. Other MMORPGs have systems like that, e.g. stone of the turtle (LotRO) or the exp disabler NPC (WoW).

It was pretty easy for us who already leveled over last 3 years.

It is more fun now and laid back and I could take side quest as I wished not to bridge level gaps. It is easier but not by a large margin.

i gues if someon only did the MSQ and nothing else.
No Gathering, No Dungeon , no crafting no side quests, no mob griending, no PvP.
Then i gues you would be on level the entire time.
I did all side quests in monarch, did gathering and crafting and now i am level 62 while the MSQ is as 50.

Wow, people are so dumb....

[Kilsubub]

Funny as ♥♥♥♥.

Your not suppose to reach max level in a weekend... Max level should take a player months to achieve in a normal healthy MMORPG... New world is only shooting themselves in the foot, as this is just going to create...

I did the main story line it was fun, I am now max lvl, game clocked, done over, time to log off and quit playing for good....

[Stunbot]

Leveling in general is too fast not just msq lol

[SnuffSaid]

They're not lying at all, I've had to stop doing side quests entirely at Brightwood because I'm past level 40 and the area is 27-35. I haven't done a single dungeon or faction board mission and I even missed the main quest chain in Windward because for some inexplicable reason there are two low level areas and I only did Monarch's bluff.

All I've done is the main quest, side quests and crafting (most trade skills around 100, where they should be). It's a really weird design choice, if you do even just one extra activity alongside the main quest you rocket ahead, I want to try out dungeons and faction quests but it'll just make the problem worse so I'm just doing the main story and crafting now.
