Why would I ever enter the wildlands and risk all my gear and xp to ganksquads when the XP is barely any better than the mainland which has significantly less risk.
Where is the risk = reward?

Pls Gellyberry you cannot do bad patches specially when you see the state of the game rn you have to do a strike of good patches like the last one, nerfing xp in the wildlands is such a bad idea don't troll your game more than you already trolled it i dont particulary really like the game but i think the classes seems pretty balanced overall and pvp can be fun in big groups/skirmishes/arenas and leveling in your game is already a pain but its enjoyable if you get pvp from time to time, now what are we gonna farm? Chickens? like bruh

Approaching nerfing with the ultimate nerf approach rather than actually taking some time to balance is not going to help. If anything it is going to kill the game even faster. After spending DOZENS of hours in Wildlands and having so much fun, nerfing it so it's not worth it to go anymore then what's the point of a place like Wildlands in a game like this? Honestly disappointed, me and my guild of 40 went from 40 active to 10 overnight cause of this.

i cant wait to fight over the 3 wildlands spawns that give barely enough xp to level up after 12 hours of grinding.

+1 @pine summit @crisp kindle all that has happened so far is players have been punished for simply playing the game, now we have no content - no resources to gather and the wildlands is absolutely worthles and no point in even continuing because there is nothing to test...

there has been no good patches for the players, only seems like we are being punished and nothing is getting better 😦

frfr ong all my homies hate this patch - why does everything have to be nerfed and nothing is fun, grind mobs for 1xp, nothing to gather or craft no events nothing lmao like wtffff

sinful linden

I personally thought the wildlands "bugged" xp was just BARELY enough to actually be worthwhile. XP rates need increasing across the board. At the moment, we are looking at hundreds of hours of grinding for a level past lvl 20. Even runescape lvl 98-99 doesn't take that long, and thats for a crazy milestone. Not to mention there is literally 5 grind spots in the game, 4 of which are in the wildlands. I'm not gonna sit here at launch killing goblins for 3 weeks to get to level 15. I cant imagine what leveling 25-30 is going to feel like. Has anyone from GBS even tested xp rates? Seemed like it was missed during testing

I agree with all this is being said here. Idk why you would farm the wildlands now lul

idk what to say honestly , it makes 0 sense

This kind of patch has to be a meme. As others have posted, there is insanely limited spots for levelings, most mobs (where you can sparsely find them in the entire world) provide some what decent exp and force a bottle neck for pvp, thats a good thing. But you still need to make several other places on the map for all levels to farm. Wildlands literally needs to be reverted back to its previous exp state. Without that incentive the entire wildlands is a meme. Lots of things were promised. At least lube us up first.

remote ridge
#

whats funny is that wildlands itself has so few spots

#

so u gonna have to risk gear AND 100% fight for those few spots to even exp

for what

#

Unless u are the top dogs literally nobody is going to go there = 0 content

exactly it's been empty we just murder hobo all the people

unlucky for them

remote ridge
#

the very little excitement i had and extremely small hope of game recovery is gone

mystic basin
#

Yea I kind of agree, full loot potential loss for 20% exp boost is not worth.

#

A lot of the mobs in the wildlands can also be found outside of the wildlands

Just make the game gear dependent rather than level dependent. A lvl 30 naked shouldn’t be able to punch a kitted lvl 15 to death.

#

Theres several things wrong here, first of why the fuck are the XP rates so low when the game is supposedly (please delay) wiping in a few days, nobody is going to bother leveling. The main issue though is in regards to the main released game, the XP rates in general seem like a joke, and having the rates that were in wildlands now before the latest patch is still RETARDEDLY slow past lvl 20, i cant even fucking imagine leveling with the current rates lmao

rough dagger
#

only high levels are going to be the exploiters

warped oak
#

Im sorry, but locking people out of the TINY bit of fucking content there is in the game with ridiculously slow leveling is not the way to solve the NO CONTENT problem

sinful linden
#

seems like they have reduced XP rates to avoid players getting to ~lvl 20 where there is limited content, and give more time to actually develop more things to do. just dont expect me to stick around killing the one camp for 2-3 weeks until you have enough time to come up with more stuff lmao

zinc iron
sinful linden
#

just how im feeling ¯_(ツ)_/¯

rough dagger
#

That is a completely reasonable take. Especially since its a subscription based MMORPG

warped oak
#

I hope these devs dont try to confuse cancerous gameplay with "hardcore" just like mortal online 2 did

zinc iron
vital ether
#

they only reduced the xp in one area because it was much higher than they had planned no where does it say reduced all xp gains

rough dagger
#

In any PvP environment, people are going to take any advantage they can get. Especially with bugs and exploits. It is just the way it is. If those issues are handled poorly people stop playing

With the current content in the game the ONLY reason to actually log in on 12th and give it a go was to have fun contesting the 3 spots in wildlands and pvp till they put some content in, if they remove that theres actually nothing to do in the game

fickle stag
#

Yeah this is a terrible change and I don't understand how the devs made this change

#

@pine summit must be smoking some good shit

#

I want what he's having.

rough dagger
#

If the mainland was more akin to something like Ultima online it would be great. More monster spawns spritzed around. More points of interest, more places to level up efficiently

vital ether
#

the people who have only exploited in wildlands with inifinte xp and saying they cant find any content at all. when myself and many others have found numerous quests. its actually not hard with a tiny bit of effort

warped oak
#

kids want to cope and say its acceptable to grind 1 million EXP by killing mobs that give 70 exp per kill 😂

get fucking real

ayy also let me tell you bud

you aint grinding no fucking quests to 1 million EXP either

lmao people dont realize, we went to grind xp in wildlands because after you do the ~10 hidden quests in mainland you are like level 10. all the dungeon mobs give like 10 xp each between group members. a wildlands rabbit gave 6 xp solo. like what the actual fuck am i supposed to do, spend 100 hours looking for hidden quests to stay level 10?

@pine summit @crisp kindle what gives this patch very not based u nerf the only place people actually leveling what were u thinking what r u smoking bros, pass the dutchie man you hit it too much, i've never heard of devs getting drunk on launch day but this takes the cake holy shit you guys are not very smart and amadurr u r a liar.

sinful linden
#

things that do not provide xp at all:
crafting
exploring
gathering

things that are an absolute waste of time in regards to xp per hour:
killing mobs in mainland

things that provide a TINY FRACTION of xp per level:
questing (1 time turn in)
taskboards (honestly didnt even test this, it was broken when i tried)

things that was actually worthwhile doing:
grinding mobs in wildlands

guess that last one just got removed

modest dome
#

@sinful linden Everytime I tried taskboards I got no exp

sinful linden
#

ill tell you what, i definitely wont be killing 30k goblins to get killed once by some shit tier mechanic/exploit and lose a level. i get the hardcore aspect but it's also a video game that needs a FUN aspect

vital ether
#

This forum makes sense its a bunch of people from the group that used the exploit in wildlands and then got called out for not reporting it and what seemed like told if they do it again they will get banned. So if they would of taken the servers down and done this fix you would never of known that wildlands was giving more xp than they intended and maybe after launch they might push it up. but when you have a group that goes to wildlands and cheats to level 25 and then stands on the spawn point at the main city and kills anyone who just teleported from SI im sure you might get a small change

leaden shard
#

hahahaah

#

exploit had nothing to do with wildlands

#

and they didnt report coz we did i think

#

so yeah

#

it was already reported before they do it

#

also its whatever game is wiping

better try stuff of the game to see if there is any depth

this was a good update, tired of seeing wildland clans all level 24+ only 1 week into the game!!!! exp in wildlands was absurb the softcap for lvl was supposed to be 20 but i see so many lvl 24s!!!! wildlands exp needed a nerf imo

why is everyone upset🤣

cuz the game is unplayable with "proper" xp

Considering this is the same people who ran instantly to abuse a quest glitch to level up. Ofcourse they think leveling should be fast

yeah i cant wait for all the new players to log into the game after its wiped and fixed, head to wildlands for some awesome 50 xp drops and get dunked out and lose a level. great game design!

or just dont go to the wildlands 🙂

if you want xp loss to be a thing it has to be fairly fast

hahahahaha

there is tons of proof, pacxen dropped everything to run and spam turn in the quest soon as you posted it

if you want it to be grindy and slow like it is now you need lots of content to diversify the grind or its a trash game

# sudden ledge yea im proud of my lvl 16 i got from just killing boars n wolves outside mainlan...

Weird cause I never exploited , I also agree that me farming for 3-4 hours in woodlands got me level 10-15 still time consuming to be honest. Especially for casters. It’s a very bad judgement call and everyone points the finger saying exploiter but in all honestly most the people you point that finger to had no ties to exploiting the exp npc. Be great full it’s fixed think it was release? Also the topic is simple I am a legit player but I will be damned if I’m going to see 1 week for a level to lose it from a Zerg. I’d rather go play Xenimus.

#

lol why do people keep bringing up exploiters

#

the wild lands xp rate has nothing to do with that

Absolutely banana brain change @crisp kindle @pine summit @deep raven what kind of bonobo apes are you my guys, you guys literally just donkey kong smashed the only part of your game that was working.

boosted ape mentality

I guess you really stumble ass backwards into a half decent game with potential, clearly 0 thought or brain power behind these most recent changes.

Just because some of you don't value your time as much as you should it doesn't mean you need to torture yourself when you play a videogame. There's a nice grind, a hard nice grind, a hard grind and then there's a job-like grind and even AFTER that there's a want to uninstall the game grind, this change is leaning between job-line to want to uninstall the game grind.

potent star
#

you could argue runescape is between job line or want to uninstall game grind, you if want to hit 99s etc it takes a year + even more depending on your time and they have 90k people online everyday

#

idk what people expected

#

amadurr said that to hit soft cap it would take 20 hrs a day for 4-5 weeks to hit it

#

not going through 1500 pages of his comments to find it either

low crescent
#

I really do not understand why almost literally all gameplay related changes they have made have been nerfs.

Lots of ore on the mainland, but not much T4+? - Oops now no ore whatsoever
There aren't a lot of mobs, so we all have to go to the wildlands - Good point lets nerf the wildlands xp.

Nerfed DR, nerfed Leatherworking progress. Why are the only changed they are making to the game changes that shit on the thngs people are doing.

potent star
#

we both know 5x wasnt the standard rate @median solar why are you so surprised

mental pilot
potent star
#

it 100% was I tested it

#

wildlands was said to give 1.25x not 5x

low crescent
#

in th notes it says it was 200% bonus instead of 20% bonus. So a total of 300% xp became 120% xp.

mental pilot
#

it took 15 hours of straight grinding wildlands uncontested to go from 10-20

potent star
#

agreed though, im not defending the lack of content and everything broken

#

15 hrs is nothing tho lmao

low crescent
potent star

if there were quests and more interesting mobs to farm, i wouldnt mind xp rates either

this game is suppose to be super grindy, thats been stated

but the lack of mobs and shit to do is boring

Server resources are better spent on pamphlets and rabits

potent star

yeah idk whats going on, they never tell us

ive been bitching about this shit for days

yeah at least in grindy games, there are mobs everywhere and they usually drop shit worth picking up but mobs in this game dont even have items

looking at his older brother, the dragon knight, obvious favorite of his parents

oh and the attack speed buff from crusader too

#

and none of these skills care about what weapon i'm using?

#

duel wield draconic swords

potent star
#

I do think a big issue too is that if the mobs just never gave crazy xp, we wouldnt be complaining about the current xp

mental pilot
#

the system he described back then where you would have to do QUESTS to gain SPECIFIC skills was way cooler, but as we've seen he only has 1 quest for each class and half of them don't work.

low crescent
#

No, I don't. I just think its not being done very well.

mental pilot
#

there would be no reason to go into wildlands and farm the mobs that have generated ALL the content in the game so far.

low crescent
#

because there would be nothing to do

potent star
#

well if nodes worked correctly, people would be going to wildlands for tier 4/5 mats

#

and maybe if there were more mobs the 1.25x xp would feel better

#

or unique drops etc

mental pilot
#

There will be no one playing any more, because anyone who was playing, was playing to test out characters, and rebuilding, but now they took away the ability to progress a character

#

So you can't test new characters up to 15 anymore

#

So there's no reason to keep playing

#

There already was not a legitimate way to level past 20 or so.

#

Atleast not within the timeframe of this friday.

#

There are no mobs for the 20+ level range

potent star
#

they filled a lot of outposts today, we have some guildies killing goblins/orcs, they give 47-80xp which isnt 90-400xp

#

but its not bad at lvl 15

#

it takes longer but I personally dont think its that bad

mental pilot
#

Yeah but you don't even understand how mob exp works. Each mob has an intended level range. When you outlevel that range, they don't even give 47, they barely give 10

#

The further you get away from the level of mob

#

The harder it gets to level.

potent star
#

the goblins tho are giving same xp for lvl 10 as 15 so idk whats going on

mental pilot
#

And the amount of exp you need for each level is exponential.

#

At level 29-30 it's over a couple million

potent star
#

prob because 30 is suppose to be soft cap

mental pilot
#

Either way the levels up to 29 are no joke either, and to expect anyone to get there sub 100 per kill exp

#

is honestly

#

banana brains

#

everyone who has a brain will quit long before then

potent star
#

you havent played many grindy mmos then

#

flyff? osrs?

mental pilot
#

unless you have quests granting millions of exp

#

I've played both

#

Neither were as bad

potent star
#

cap

#

good luck hitting max lvl in flyff or osrs in less than a few weeks haha

mental pilot
#

Both had mobs and zones you could go to to increase levels, and also flyff was a game that soft capped around 100, all your skills were already unlocked and you had like 50 of em.

#

i hit level 30 in ethyrial i have 4 skills

#

LMFAO

#

same deal in OSRS

potent star
#

what class are you playing

mental pilot
#

i played the fister class in flyff

potent star
#

im not defending this shit game im just saying I expected it to take forever to level

#

the problem is the grinding isnt fun

mental pilot
#

and the dual wielding class

#

yeah

#

there is nothing to do

#

at all

potent star
#

theres no reason to go to one camp vs another

mental pilot
#

osrs by the way

#

max was 123 or some shit right

#

123 or 127

potent star
#

flyff had so many mobs and places to go to

mental pilot
#

but

potent star
#

126

mental pilot
#

you got there by maxing out

#

like all of your fucking skills

#

doing hundreds of hours of content

#

in this amadurr expects me to grind a zillion goblins to hit level 30?

#

fuck that

potent star
#

I agree its bad

#

the xp rate doesnt bother me, its the content and drops, theres nothing in this game that feels like its worth doing

mental pilot
#

the xp rate wouldn't be bad if there were actually other things in this game to do then to hit level 30

potent star
#

its weird because the orks on si above scorched plains drop all types of greens, and thats it

mental pilot
#

but with no quests no crafting nothing else contributing to your level

potent star
#

they didnt add that for any other mob

mental pilot
#

it doesn't fucking matter

#

and also

#

for a game that's this grindy

#

to have exp loss on death

#

is absolutely

#

the most

#

idiotic and moronic thing

#

I have ever seen

potent star
#

just dont die XD

mental pilot
#

if exp is going to be loss on death it needs to be an easy come easy go type deal

#

if i die and de-level i should have to go kill mobs for like an hour or two

#

not for 2 weeks

#

HAHAHAHA

#

at the previous rates if i died i lost about 1.6k exp

#

i can go kill big earth eles for about 150-200 in wl

#

it's like maybe an hour to walk there and back and i just have to kill like 10 or so of em to make it up

#

now

#

they give sub 50 exp

#

they don't even spawn that fast

#

the game doesn't respect the players time

#

it will die.

scarlet raft
#

xp loss on death when the grind is severe is just ape brain shit

and that's not even dying with infamy
