hello..im from Raging Tide server


what is the deal with everyone selling quest/mobs..isnt it against rules??..because it is not a legal valid item obtained in your inventory to sale....but the fact of selling quest experience in FC aka heads is a quest..a quest for Sincerity, started by a NPC..yet people sell it?

thats not right




if this was my PWI, i wouldnt allow anyone to sell mobs/quest due to not being a legally obtained item in inventory

    They do this cuz they know there is a power lvl craze going on and you have to be a lvl 80+ in order to open FC. And its easy to make 1M+ in an hour or less.

    Power lvling (in case u dont know) is where someone joins and within 1 month they are lvl 80+. So they are willing to pay to do so.

    However they dont realize that they usually end up with bad gear and can be owned by those who actually take the time to learn the toon and are 10+ lvls lower than they are.b:laugh

    Oh and its not illegal or bannable. Plus the more PWI have high lvl players, the more they know they will spend the coin on gear/mats/etc.

    It's no different from charging people to kill quest mobs/bosses.



    There's no rule that says you can only sell items.

    Tru story, seen a lvl 74 outside west arch yesterday QQ'n he got his a$$ kicked by a lvl 60-ish in a duel

    as for sellin spots in an fcc, tho i dont like the prices, i can kinda agree with the concept, usually these parties have already cleared most of the mobs along the way from what i understand, so they've burned thru some of their charm, racked up a bit of a repair bill, and are now standing outside the final door.. its kinda like wine-ing a bh/fb, they've already paid for the wine, and used it, now they want to cover their loss so they ask everyone to pitch in for the wine and the barb/tank's repair bill.

    I think power-leveling is typically amusing in it's stupidity. Level 100 noobs who can't play their class make me laugh.

    For the OP, they are offering a service. they cleared to the heads for you. You want the exp, but are too low level to do the bosses ect. before the heads, so they are merely charging you for the service of clearing the instance to that point. From a business standpoint it's perfectly valid.

    Also, no one is forcing you to pay it. No one is forcing you to use that service, so why QQ?

    I will gladly pay a cleric for needed services if I do not readily have one available. It's the same theory. Offer clerics and barbs free wine so you can get them to tank/heal your BH's... same thing.

    If you don't like it, join free faction runs, don't participate, go level other ways. Still easy to oracle if you've got the coin. Oh way, that's why you're QQing, you want the service but don't have the coin. Go play R..Scape.

    My only issues with FC head selling services is that it can sometimes produce high level characters that have no clue what they are doing, also it has affected the amount of squads in the lvl ~80 range, me and a few of my friends who have re-rolled to different classes have noticed how much harder it is to get a fc squad as a lvl ~80 today than it was a few months back..not saying its impossible now, just harder.

    You can power level and still learn your class one day or another. As for you saying that a cash shopper/power leveler is going to have worse gear than some one who quests and grind is B.S. They will just charge more to get end game gear and enough money to have it +11 the minute they turn 100 or 101.
