Closed Beta Test 5 – Patch Notes and Server Opening Times

    Meehh! I'm working at that time! I'll be forced to watch the event on WhitestarStream instead of beeing part of it ! *desperate QQ*

    No point to increase the xp for lvling in cbt phase. people have only 2-3 days to play and learn the game. So exp rate is quite fine for now. If some of u guys wants to make leveling harder is ok by me, but wait for launch time. Not in CBT .

    Hmm, I guess I will just make another character for this CBT or go away for this weekend. ;D

    looking forward to the event ! we will be there in force! be sure to bring enough argons! muhaha!

    Wellcome to Lag Fest 2012 :)

    Why are you all about increasing XP required would also mean harder? By doing so it only makes it longer and more boring. It's just a brainless grindfest since it is easy at those levels to just roflstomp your way through quests. But instead decreasing HP would require ( for some classes more than others ) some downtime between rolling over packs of mobs. Personally I think they did the best thing to decrease HP instead of raising XP needed. Try to see it this way : " It would be better to think what I'm doing while fighting mobs and care about my HP and dodging attack so I have less downtime than instead just having to kill more mobs or do a few more quests". Then again, everyone has it's opinion and I just wanted to share mine.
    -danto-


    +1 Agree with the HP decrease thing. Because they've lowered the HP now at start, you'll be forced to dodge/block more unless you want more downtime/'be killed' between mobs.


    Very nice!

    Is this just a copy and paste from the NA beta?


    5 Betas in and you've only noticed? :P What they get, is what we get. Exact same build only with the European languages thrown in.

    lol because more exp to lvl up make the game harder? if you want do brainless useless grind just keep killing mobs 5 lvl lower than your and just stfu


    Btw WTF care about difficulty 1-15 or even 1-38 when in 1 month everyone will reach cap! and in 2 month ppl will start cry to boost exp to roll up more chars! dump ppl will stay dumb!


    Reducing hp imho is the best way to make game a *bit more challenging and less boring, but no exp nerf for da faaaak

    My dear, the only dumb person here seems to be you yourself.


    Some people don't want to lvl up a character in less than 1 month.
    They would like to take their time to do so, enjoy the levelin up and not simply rush it.
    You'll have to take note that currently there will be almost no endgame content for release, besides PvE dungeons, Deathmatches and open world PK there won't be any BGs at all.


    So what will you do after getting at max level with your main in 2 weeks, having your gear done in, again (maybe) 2 weeks ?
    What will you do ? PK everyone in sight ? Drop the game and wait ?


    Some people don't want to face that and are therefore asking for an EXP nerf.
    If you don't like that than it's ok but calling others dumb or stupid just because they prefer to take longer to lvl up is nonscence.


    Also people are asking for the game to last "longer" and not to be "harder" to finish.

    BTW i don't think this is a simple copy + past from the NA servers. The events seem to happen EU -> NA. I do not recall a new event on saturday of the NA cbt 5. :)

    Quote from Fintlook;1230667

    It is a copy past, NA got this event on CBT5 and you could already see lvl of other players long before CBT5 :P


    yes, the lvl in the target thing was in the cbt4 too hahah
    I hope see you this weekend fint!

    Thanks for the news! I actually really like that the feedback that was given, has been followed up upon! Like to see more of that in the future raven! keep it up.


    I totally agree with you.
    I would like to enjoy the area's/bams/dungeons they build and not simply rush trough them.
    Even in beta i noticed i lvl'd way to fast becouse the story line quests gave me to much exp,
    therefore I missed some cool area's.
    nonetheless i enjoy this game and will take my sweet time to lvl.

    How a game can be more difficult by reducing the hp instead of increasing exp required to lvl up o.O?


    If you measure a game difficulty by how much exp required for level up, you didn't understand the concept of "difficulty".


    If you need a single mob to level up in a game but the mob is enough hard to require you 100 deaths and 2 hour of game, that's difficulty. If you kill 1000 mobs to level up in 2 hours, you did it with your brain afk.


    Difficulty requires brain, farming instead is just a boring thing, maybe a bad job.
