So, i definitely think there should be a better way to get to lv 105. This is just a thought. In my opinion, RB ( Rebirth) is a challenging and fun instance in PWI. Who does not remember the days of doing RB Delta. Not many people do Full RBs anymore, usually only a couple waves for BH. I think it will bring back the necessity of finding squads and working together instead of just hopping on your sin and soloing the instance. So maybe the mobs inside the instance for all the RBs should give more exp and maybe better rewards. Maybe buff the mobs too b:chuckle

    RB WAS challenging when I HAD my TT99 gold xbow and 5k HP. Nowadays I CAN solo (duo) all non stun waves with an AFK BB.
    1. If I kill you; do something about it yourself, don't go complaining to my wife.
    2. If you have less kill counts then me, don't expect me to take pk advice from you.
    3. If you are hiding behind an alt, don't expect me to acknowledge your existence.

    That is why i said maybe buff the mobs too. Maybe even have a hard mode because low refine R8s are still challenged by a full Delta.

    delta is still a relatively thriving instance on dreamweaver. actually now that people are doing spawn point deltas, its becoming more and more common to see "full sp delta LF seeker" in world chat. I remember doing gamma and beta, and there's still junkies who leave their toons at gamma range.

    but yeah.. in order to make leveling off of RB a time effective construct - they would have to radically alter the exp rewards of it. id personally be content just to see the mobs go from giving 1 exp /1 spirit, to giving the same amount of exp as the mobs in map 3

    Personally, I love full Delta. But not sp. I want old school rainbow squad full Delta - but hard to find nowdays unless someone needs for their culti - heck most dont even do THAT anymore because you dont need it to auto attack. I love full Delta old school style because: I'm a cleric and get to BB the whole time - I get to be lazy and if its rainbow squad I dont even use any mana, I get to BB and chat with the squad or firneds or faction, and hey the zhenning with seeker makes it awesome to watch and be a part of. I know cleric does nothing especially great in Delta, but I love the instance and jump at the chance to participate in a full old school run. If your squad knows their skills you dont need r8 or lvl 100 to make it all the way through wave 9. The quest rewards for completing each wave are pretty nice too - the later ones especially. Drops get better and better in later waves as well - old book pages ftw!! Delta rulez!!

    very true. i successfully pulled my first full delta in my mid 90's wearing tt90 greens with 16k hp in tiger form. the cleric and dd's were never really in any harm either when they ran with me. however, the main reason i dont do full traditional deltas anymore is because of the amount of time it takes to complete, and believe it or not - from a puller's standpoint, spawn point is a thousand times easier. spawn waves no longer require vacuity pots, violent triumph is all i need anymore in delta, just use that right before stun waves and im free to move about and grab the aggro, invoke if needed, etc. dont get me wrong, i can still do an old school delta - but its more dangerous at wave 9 gathering the stun waves up completely before coming to BB. I have to wait on them to pile up and sometimes that can mean an entire minute of getting beat on before i go back to BB. Overall from my own experience, spawn point is more profitable, less time consuming, and just plain easier. I even dual client the cleric sometimes and people never know the difference.

    leveling with rb is more time consuming than goon gliching or killing a bh boss with 5aps squad therefore no one wants to do it...also its hard to find good squads...

    i wish pw would make something like...advanced rebirth for 10people...
    stealthed mobs...
    reflect mobs...
    exploding mobs...
    immune to all but 1 element/physica mobs mixed up in a single wave...
    flying mobs...(for our kittys to use their new skill)
    bosses which drain chi...
    flying bosses that can only be hit by ranged attacks with at least 25,5m range...(immune to the new barb skill ofc)
    reflect bosses...

    oh i am so mean...b:chuckle
    i am waiting for you my little flagcarriers b:kiss
