The 80+ Grind
Quote:
Huh, so what do you guys think about that? o-o With the new quest exp, it definately has become easier ... Wonder what SKiNG meant by "hard" though o: |
I wouldn't necessarily say its "easy"... They haven't done it. xD Even with the new quests, 4x still requires a lot of grinding...
I'm scared for levels 53-57. ;~; |
Still massively easier than before though o-o
a level in late 7x used to take 1 or 2 days of non-stop grinding if you had the best possible conditions. Now it's what? A lvl a day going casual? |
Which is what he was saying...
1~79 are the easy levels... when all the capped hit lvl 8x it's going to be a ton harder I guess. |
I wonder what they mean by harder though. If they mean grinding like it was pre-monster xp boost patch (which still wasn't that bad for the last tier of the game) or just normal grinding without spammable hihg-xp repeatable quests.
|
I think the grind right now depends on the quest ... a 1m exp reward for gathering 10 of xx isn't going to help me if xx doesn't ever drop =w= |

Well we all suddenly got a massive quest EXP boost coz they implemented a lot more quest in one go...
so at lvl 65, i've got all the new quest from lvl 60-65 in one go, which probably gave me like 4.5 mil exp (about 65%)... but in reality, if those quests were already there, you'll probably get a quest that gives you 20% or so, and you've gotta grind the rest anyway so i wouldnt say its significantly easier... as with any game... as you get closer to the cap (watever the official cap may be) they make it harder to get to... Someone said in Runescape, it's easier to go from lvl 1 - 209 again than to go from 209 - 210... (assuming 210 was cap) Maybe that's wat he meant by harder... takes longer... |
^Yeah probably. It took me 6 months to get to 60 and the second time around it took me 3 months to get there. o__o So by looking at the trend it should take me... 1.5 months to get a 3rd class to 60? Lol
I was looking through the BK Wiki and their 80+ quests give like 10mil exp. But if you think about it... that probably only adds up to less than 20%? Scary~ |
o.o Hm.. 10m exp quests at Lv80 might give around 40%+ ... Still happy for me. :D
|
Meh, BK's exp needed to level goes up by a LOT. You though 3mil at level 60 was crazy... you get that in your 40s...
|
OH MY GOD I think we'll be dead in BK by now.
|
Yeah, but though xp needed was more, you still got more than here too.
Almost balances out :) |

They must be planning to increase to cap soon if they're pushing everyone higher.
God help us if there's another lvling challenge. |
^Well both Sylvia and Ghostly left, so hopefully it'll be fair. xD
I'm rooting for... Someone in Teva. Although there are a lot of grinding-obsessed in Epith. |
Cheaters wasn't the worst part about it. Community was devastated by the event :/
|
what event?:err:
|
The 'Legends of Isya' event, ya know, first 3 blah blah of each class and each server to get to 79 gets a (now commonplace) Blue.
Teva and Apoline were lesser servers after the event. |
Legends of Isya.
Darn you, lvra... xD |
I'm the guy with 256kb internet, don't blame me xD
Anyway, some of the best people quit either directly or in-directly because of the event. Lots of friends too. |
why should they quit because of that? :gasp:
|
It created a lot of retarded dramas. I swear, I've never seen a community that is as dramatic, complains, or does as much bitching about others as frequently as Fiesta's does.
|
Indeed.
What used to be a laid-back, fun and cooperative community was torn by the mad dash to cap of a few people. The really fun people, the real personalities who stayed around to interact were ditched by friends who went off to grind. Bad feeling over restricted grinding areas, never-before seen vindictive GWs (at least among the big guilds) scamming and plain idiocy. |
that sounds like the event wasnt the source but a catalyzer. Imho the real reason was a large base of 59er who all wanted to lvl, and the grinding grounds for that lv couldnt take them at all.
So what happened was a fight over the ground u were grinding on. Of course before the cap lift, people just grinded until 59 was reached without any problem, because it happened over time. So if u want to blame Outspark for something then for lifting the cap much too late. Thats the reason i stay on 71, and do not try to cap. :laugh: When the cap gets lifted i can peacefully grind my way up. |
Not really blaming Outspark for the event, people do what they do and there's nothing that can change that.
The event though was the beggining of the end, melodramatic as that may sound. If there wasn't the event, I really think that the game would have been a whole lot better for it. |
i'm too lazy to read the posts...but the 'hard' part is that till now it has been easy enought for small kids, now it'll be the real game ;)
i know i'm smart :laugh: ^^ |
Their definition of easy meant grinding out 18 million experience at level 78 for level 79? That is 18 hours worth of work amusing the game, rather than the game being amusing.
|
wait, it's only 18 mil o__o?
I thought I remembered it being somewhere around the 27 mark. |

But i'll still devote my hours to Fiesta like i should Can sum1 delete that 1st post |
You can do it yourself. Go to edit ---> delete.

The new quest exp is lot for 78 though. Booyah went from 77-79 in like two days...

At lvl 78 you get a quest called "Monster Collector 1" Which is to collect some Lizard Knight Tails... Turn that in, and it becomes a repeatable quest worth 2,6 almost 2,7m exp "Monster Hunter 2" collecting 40 LK claws. All you have to do is go AoE those bishes, and you're good to repeat that quest once an hour. |

OH! And why were you not on Fiesta today?! And I was! Like 4-5 hours! D< Jobs?! PFFT! |
I was just online for like 2 hours.
And my job > Fiesta. I hate stupid people is why I logged off /writes in all the rage |
^Yeah, for some reason the certain members of the Army seemed to think you're gone already? D< I was like "...". Way to keep them in the loop. xD
Sorry about off-topic. So the quests apparently are making Fiesta almost grind-less. What about 53-56? Anyone in those levels know if there are many more quests? Like a LOT? |
Flowersss made that thread in MoS...
check eet. And yeah GM's said they were making the game a truly casual experience... They don't want to make it so people have to sit in front of the computer as long as I do. =/ EDIT: I told them I wasn't logging back in until I was in Germany... and I couldn't resist when I got home =x |
