• • EverQuest II: Game Update 49 Experience Changes

  • After reading the posts in this forum I am not surprised that some will complain. There always seems to be those who can not find anything good in any change made to the game that they did not ask for.  I have been playing the game for about 2 years now and only have one toon to lvl 80. I have another at 75 but the rest of my alts seem to have bogged down in the upper 40's to lower 50's. Although I don't think the range that they changed was absolutely necessary, I do think it needed to be made easier for a solo player to get from the upper 40's to 70 a bit faster. Those levels seem to need more grouping to get the good drops and exp that those of us stuck there were just that, stuck. The amount of grouping in those levels has dropped off drasticly in just the last year. On the Runnyeye server it seems like the main focus is on raids and no one seems to want to raid anything lower then T8 so unless your lvl 75+ your SOL. With this change, I am excited about the possiblility of raiding my alts without having to stop playing my main to get the alts up to raid level.

    I also think that the change to the mentoring achievement xp gained will also help get some of those upper level players willing to mentor to those real low levels for the AA points.

    In an overall view, I see this as an advance in allowing more players to attain those magical T8 levels to raid without having to beg for help at every turn. Yes, some of you know all the secrets to power leveling your toons and some spend a ton of plat in doing so. Unfortunatly not all of us have unlimited time or plat tio invest in power leveling a toon! This is going to allow me to actually raid the toons I like more then my main. If I had known that no one was going to want to do the lower level instances and raid zones after RoK was released, I would have chosen a different toon to max first, but alas, now I can get my other toons caught up. I might even up my membership to allow for those extra char slots and try some classes I might not have tried before.

    I for one am excited to get a shot at advancing my alts in the near future!
