    I've been in APS squads, but never joined one intentionally over another squad.

    I've left squads with APS people simply because they failed and couldn't tank/keep aggro/survive. I've also left non APS groups for the same.

    pw has no early or midgame content, it's all about the endgame. everything that matters happens after 90, and most of it isn't until 100. no gear you make now means **** until 90, and even that 90 gear is trash once you hit 99. nothing you do effects your endgame until you reach it.

    so, why level slowly?

    in my years of playing pw, i've never liked leveling. this game use to be so stupidly grindy that i couldn't even become active in pwi after its release. i had done it multiple times before: killing 15 mobs just to get .1% at 90.. that isn't fun. this game isn't fun. the pvp and tw is the reason anyone plays - so why is there pve servers?

    again, why level slowly? nothing you do while leveling effects anything you do endgame.

    you don't learn to pvp grinding mobs. you don't learn anything about your skills grinding mobs. you don't get faster grinding mobs. what do you get grinding mobs?

    a headache and boredom.

    again, why level slowly?

    in all honesty, pw shouldn't have any damned levels. levels don't mean **** in this game(at least, not at this cap), it's all about the gear. gear and knowledge of your skills, which you learn while pvp'ing.

    attack rate qq? why complain about that? attack rate makes farming bearable. a decently geared wr/sin/ea/wb can solo any boss in the game(well, all can solo, just slower), faster than parties of people without an attack speed char in their party. attack speed has always been here - 5.0 has always been here(restricted to ea's ofc), why is it a problem now? because some oldfarts who didn't know it existed in the past think it's unfair now?

    sure, i don't like 5.0 wrs, nor 5.0 sins. I don't think they should exist. but attack speed has always been here, so why ***** now? because you don't know how to fight it? most of you are from pve servers anyway, why do you care? the only place their attack rate is unbalanced in pvp, and they all usually suck anyway.

    I guess I don't have much room to talk since I only started about a year ago when the game was getting to be a mess (or so I've heard) so I've really only seen it as it is. Still I'm pretty proud of my small progress, I get my levels the old fashioned way. Quests and grinding.

    It's tough to find a squad if the faction I'm in is having one of it's dead days but I like to go out and grind for drops or find some new pets to tame. Most venomancers seem to pass by 97% of all the tamable monster in the game with no drive to experiment. I love testing out new pets and picking my favorites.

    The game is pretty lonely at times but its good to be able to find a way to enjoy your solo time.

    It is true, the community here has changed and for the worse.

    I am also guilty of this, I am ashamed to say. It is the reality.

    I had to pay 25 million coins for my sage revive, this means for 5 or 6 weeks I did nothing but farm for myself, and no one else. This is because for 2 weeks I searched the AH relentlessly to see if I could find one for sale there. I was unsuccessful.

    After 2 weeks of searching, I began making my own skill clips to open. Because of the enormous cost, I then had to sell the skills I already had at exorbitant prices to pay for the process, all the while making myself unavailable to help others because I was forced to be greedy by greedy people.

    And to think people actually expect you to have sage revive later. The person who eventually ended up selling it to me for 25 million coins is probably that very person. He will beg for a res one day, and I will bite my tongue and res him. Even though I want to say "You there, do you remember when you ***** me for my sage revive? Now pay with your experience."

    It is this kind of greed that has become so rampant on this game, all servers alike.

    I am sad that I too, in order to compete at a high level, I too have had to stoop to that
    level.

    To the OP, I feel your pain friend, I too wish things were civil, the way they were long long ago.

    Dumb post of the day award goes to... ^

    1) Highly unbalanced in PVE, far more than PVP. The arcane DD classes can one shot players in PVP offsetting high a/r, can't do that against [?] bosses can they? Yeah, nice post there sparky. I farm 100x faster on my sin than I ever did my herc veno, which farmed that much faster than casters, let alone a 2009 squad of players with under 2 a/r. Obviously you've never farmed anything then and now with such a dumb rationale.

    2) Most content is actually low and mid levels, called quests. Much of it is in fact a grind, but so is farming the same instances repeatedly. There's no way to avoid most grinding that isn't purely cash shopping.

    In every which way you've managed to show you're quite clueless.

    WE NEED TO DO A VIDEO TRIBUTE TO THE OLD PWI AND ITS GLORIOUS DAY WHEREBY PEOPLE HAVE FUN AND NOT TROLL

    and did anybody realise that in the old times, players like to chat over the WC to entertain the whole server while now all you see is people trying to sell stuff, to be honest, I HATE THIS GAME INSTANTLY WHEN I SAW THE ANI PACK

    I must say I think I have been, and to a degree still am, in denial. That this game TRULY is DYING =\

    Which is really sad, because I LOVE the game itself. They totally COULD fix it too, but they wont.

    Now for the company it's only about milking it for every last dollar they can, just like for the playerbase it's all about getting that 105, opposed to actually playing like we used to and having a good time like we used to. It's all about who can get to 105, and who can do so the fastest =\

    Let us hope that it's not beyond the point of no return, and that there IS something that can be done to resurrect this once great game...

    If so, I will be around to say -- I made it through the tough times. If not, well, R.I.P. PWi
