Also - Powerleveling somebody's "First" character is kind of crap, because then you lose out on gameplay and gaining knowledge, however, I'm sure people have friends who decide to make new characters and are up for a powerleveling.


I still think people are being selfish. Try to look at it from both points of view besides your own - your 'right' isn't the only 'right'.


*EDIT*

Also, to a lot of you - saying this in kindest way possible, but you're being kind of hypocritical, because a lot of you leveled on things higher than you. Remember our early uruga parties back int he day when we were like, late 3x- to early 4x? =P So seriously..try to see from both points of views.
Hmm.

To your first point - I was not accusing you of incompetence. Rather, I was stating a mere fact...those who are powerleveled will not know how to play their class masterfully. You duoed - that cannot be truly considered or classified as powerleveling, can it?

Secondly, my first character was soloed to 26. My second was largely soloed to 57; sure, I partied up for Robo KQs or dungeon quests, but extended periods of grinding? Nope. My third and current was soloed to 31, and then began partying up in Goblin Camp. A mage with 5,000 T1 HP potions with full +9 equipment can drop mobs like mad. Sure, the mobs were higher...but not like being in Forest of Slumber with level 40s.

And no, I do not remember any early Uruga parties. If I recall correctly, Lilian was in high demand on her mage back in September-November of 2007.

I suppose I get to call myself one of the few non-hypocrites? O_o
