I'm from Lost City. I'm used to the 2-years-ago PWI, 'cause I quit then and just came back. At those times, we could do BHs every day, at basically anytime... And well, that's the main way to level at 4-8x back then. What happened to that? Archosaur's center is so empty, no one announcing BHs or anything. I"m questing right now to get some experience, and that's scaring slow. Some days ago I made some characters in Raging Tides, and there it seemed like we could do any mid-game quest/instance, the server seemed much more active and populated... Most certainly it's because RT is a fairly young server, and Lost City is a dinosaur, but still! We rely on Frost runs to level now? No BHs? Just whatever else can we do?
And what about TT runs? People still do these for some money? And (have to ask :p) wizards still have space in this game?
It's all so different now... everyone running around Lv100+ with +10 or +12 Nirvana or rep gear (they were relly hard to get when I played). Time flies, hell yeah o-o Would someone mind to update me regarding all this new game order?

    They boosted quests's exp in a way that you don't even need to touch BH until lv,60+ (I think).

    I made an alt buffer and did ALL the quests to experiment the new exp/coins boots.
    I had enough exp by lv.59 to infuse into a genie and make it lv.59 as well,really tons of exp(and money too).

    I was used to old quests and I noticed an huge difference: it takes 5-6 quests alone to level at lv.50+ and I still had 20+ quests when I hitted 59+(also almost reached 2M coins until I started spending on skills).

    ....so just keep doing quests and level like that.

    Not to mention that quests used to be kind of a nightmare at lv.50+ -- it was like 10+ mobs every 10 level ( that's 50 mobs on level 50-59 quests, 60 mobs on lv.60 -69 quests),and not always there were plenty of mobs either (quests around Tusk Town *ughhh*). Now most lv.1-79 quests have as requisite to kill or get quest items in the 10-20 range per quest ONLY (compared to 50+ mobs / quest drops) and the rewards in terms of exp/spirit/coins are greatly boosted. Its really a walk in the park now.

    + some of those "kill to get item"-quest had an item with a ridiculously low drop rate.
    Remember the wand for ~20 culti? xD Or kill 5-10 mobs to get 1 item that you need ~50 of? Fun times.. Funnier times nowadays tho xD

    Cyan Wand (x1) and Hard Tooth(x5) quests. It once took me to kill the same mobs close to 50 times to get all 5 tooths, it was a pain in the back.

    Not to mention "Traitor's Confession", get 50x Talisman from some mobs outside Tusk Town....it was 1 mob every 2 square kilometres, yay very funny.

    Now most quest drops are 100% drop rate, those quest with 1 quest drop are like : Kill 1 mob = quest done = YAY! b:surrender
