Oh help, where do I start with my description of levels 90-105?

Neverending tedium of the same monsters, the same AoE for hours and hours. If you want good exp (good exp at 100+ being 2-3% per hour) you have to fully CS it out.... I'm not just talking about the obligatory BoT, CS outfits for crit or def, Exp 100% card, 50% Extender, but about the fact that you have to charm 70% everytime you grind. If you don't, exp gain is limited to "not-much-at-all". Also, worthwhile mentioning - I have quit Fiesta now and moved on to a P2P MMO... 1month of my spendage on Fiesta pays for 3/4/5months subscription to my P2P (depending on how many charms and stuff I used in Fiesta... I refuse to add up my total spendage, I am ashamed!).

The monsters you have to grind in AR hit HARD - this means if you don't have +9/10 everything at lvl 95+ at least, you're not going to be grinding there - unless someone is kind enough to let you leech (!!!).

The only class that can get away with a little less CS spendage would be clerics - you're not doing the killing, so you don't need the outfits and you can get away with not charming if you don't need to pull large mobs (which incidentally, you are likely to need to do if you get a decent Phouch or BB grind party).

I can honestly say its not fun. Most people on my FL hit 100 for the new class change and skills... realised that earning 2% an hour in post lvl 100 grinds was about as fun as sawing off your own arm, and went and quit. I went for cap because I wanted it over and done with... there was nothing to gain from doing that other than a few skill upgrades. Theres no lv 100+ KQ (STILL... we get new buff icons that we didn't ask for but STILL NO 100+ KQ???) and really once you're capped, all you do is hang around and look impressive...

Thats the truth. Fiesta is a TONNE of fun at lower levels. You change areas/maps, KQs, items quite often, it's really a blast. But, if you want to retain your sanity, stop at level 85. Past there its repeat after rubbish repeat until 91... then after that its rinse and repeat on different coloured mobs that you've already seen.

Oh, I speak from experience BTW.
