There is a rumor going around that an upcoming patch will make FCC impossible for lower levels to enter... rumor that FCC will go to 90+ ONLY [level cap]...

As of the last 2 weeks the mobs in FCC have started hitting harder and many have noticed it...

Just wanted to see if anyone knew anything for sure... dislike rumors... just like to get to the facts... appreciate all replies and TY...

b:thanks

    Uh, I haven't noticed the mobs hitting harder and this is the first I've read about it. lol
    Anyway, I find it unlikely. I could see 75+ since that's the level range it was intended for, but not 90.

    But no, no one knows anything for sure. If it had already been implemented or suggested for the CN version, there'd be a few threads about it here.

    That's not a rumor, just wishful thinking brought on by envy. First off all the quests in there are level 85. Secondly, PWE makes a lot more money off high level alts than low level alts. And third, a minimum requirement on something is the opposite of a "cap".

    I believe the quests that were referred to were the ones you get inside FCC. That is, the Chest of Sincerity quest line and the teleports.

    There's no reason to restrict low levels. They can simply disable hypers in FC just like in every other non-pwi servers.
    /quit.

    The effect on leveling would be too small for it to be worth the Developers time, there are better and cheaper ways than frost to level from 60-90, and leveling prior to 60 can be done through hyper grinds if needed (would increase the time by a few days for 1-60 and actually reduce the time 60-90 to about 3 days).

    Once again an unfounded rumor similar to the multiple APS nerf rumors, or fist/claw restrictions

    Uhhhh... Wha?

    You get a quest to talk to an NPC inside Frost at 75, yes.

    You get the ability to actually run the instance at 85, as in, take the quests.

    As for the entire premise of this thread... It's ridiculous.

    First off, the mobs are level 87-88. Frost has always been for 75+, and before people realized they could make stupid amounts of money by selling something that should be off-limits or free in the first place, for the occasional 73-74 for training as well.

    If someone in the faction I belong to got curious about FCC, and they were 70-75, I'd see about getting a 70-85 FCC together and show them how it's done. This BS with taking people in that are level 12 and getting massive EXP off just the heads... I find it distasteful.

    PWE probably finds it really yummy. They get to have lots of people getting their alts up to 101+, and suddenly, these people want to +10 their gear. They are suddenly charging money to get dragon orbs, and voila, power leveling is encouraged.

    Great for PWE because they make money. Fail for us, as players, because now there's a bunch of people running around that don't really know what they're doing.

    "I'll learn once I have all of my skills in Frost" is a great idea, but does it really work that way? There was a BM in TW who had all the best gear, but... No idea what they were doing, and... I could solo them on my 'zomg fail sage archer'. b:surrender They didn't know what their skills did... And the week before, they were exactly the same.

    So, I don't really buy it.
    101 Sage Sin*/Archer
    100 Demon BM*/Barb
    96 Demon Cleric/Sage Seeker
    95 Demon Wiz/
    94 Sage Veno
    85 Psy/80 Mystic
    And a handful of other alts, all 79 and under.

    Oh and sorry but let me say this...

    Mobs are not hitting harder players just blow so they make up excuses for their suckishfulness.

    I solo 2-4 frosts a day and trust me, the mobs aren't hitting harder.

    Nah, this 'rumor' is here only to boost the income of heads-sellers b:laughs.

    You get fist quest there at 75, and you are able to fully use the dungeon at 85. No way they'd make it 90+.

    A friend told me that he overheard one of his friends seeing the guy taking out the trash at PWE mumbling something about the janitor in the office that stumbled on a piece of paper ripped to shreads he assembled with what seemed to be scotch tape.. After assembling all 50 pieces of the paper and translating from chinese to english...He got something ressembling.."Nerf..FC..or make..Phoenix Valley...try..make ..people..sell ..less heads..."

    Legit source yo !!!

    if a change is made it is because players are clearly making profit from it by charging people.... eliminate the customer base eliminate the problem. People were constantly whining about sins being over powered and them making money makes them more so. If they do this they'll use what I just wrote as the excuse and claim phoenix valley was to remedy the problem of lower levels not having FF anymore.

    Not 90, but 80 or 85, because lvl 85 people can open the gates. I'm really sick of power leveling noobs, so I hope they will do something against this... I doubt it but hey, I can dream, right? ...

    b:chuckle cause fcc is the only way to powerlvl... right~

    Let them keep fcc for powerlvling, at least that won't cause a war on areas of the map where powerlvling is easy (pq area just to name 1). If they close fcc, ppl will powerlvl their alts on pq boss or bloodponts and a regular 60-80 can't even do pq anymore. The high lvls doing squad-help on pq is already annoying enough. So plz plz plz let fcc open for ppl to powerlvl, at least there nobody is bothered by it.

    In the end, nobody forces you to squad with powerlvled noobs. 99% of the noobs powerlvled I agree on that, but off at least half of the powerlvled ppl you won't even notice they got to 100 within a month.

    PWI should just capitalize on it, and put an item in boutique to right click your way to 100...

    Bet people that defend the FC powerleveling noobs would then come in here arguing how wrong it is.

    good grief. i'll say it once again RESTRICTING FC WONT DO ANYTHING! let them resirt FC, you know what will happen?


    (sin): "power leveling service. Super zhen party at Rotthrench. 1.5mil per hour!"

    things like that will be popping up in WC. the simple fact of the matter is there are many ways to power level. hell you can almost power level from normal grinding with hypers. so imagine zhenning with hypers in a super crowded (mobs) area.



    if noobs what to burn their cash to get to high level fast let them for crying out loud. just because YOU like to take it slow doesn't mean you should shove what you like down other peoples throats. it's a GAME and fun for some may be boring to others.


    fail players. i'll perosnally find them to be funny as hell. i have a blast at their expense due to their ignorance and enlighten them afterwards. let's not fool ourselfs and try to make it sound as if one needs a degree in rocket scinece to play the game. anyone can pick up a class and know how to play it perfectly in a day or 2, with clerics needing a little longer. now a days i find that players get WAAAAY too flustered over, you guessed it A GAME. if the squad gets wiped it's not a big deal considering how fast you can earn that exp back. yet despite this people come times go ape **** crazy when they die.

    and alot of times when players "fail", it could be a simple mistake (barring things like not knowing about heal aggro). it gets rather sickening. a simple misclick can get you labeled as a power leveler. take me on my sin. i forget to use rib strike a few times (due to me liking to chat even in the middle of a fight or some other interference) so i'm labeled noob?


    well whatever. if i get my sin to end game (semi old school leveler here) i'll be selling heads as well. if people are willing to cough up coin for my abilities i see no reason to NOT accept.
