    The problem is to fast leveling, and no coin to upgrade anything. We are going to see alot more people in bhs 69-89 in crappy gear, and now with no skills.

    Dunno aobut DW, but we already had this on Sanc before. People at 60 still using the free timed armor or the level 30 rank stuff... b:shocked

    Im not so confident, heres why:

    - Increased Exp/Spirit rewards for Spiritual Cultivation quests up to Lv60.

    No extra coins there. Just xp/spirit.

    - Low Level "Starter" quests for Humans, Untamed and Winged Elves increased in Exp & Coins.

    This is for the 3 "original" races, to bring them in line with the 2 newest. I'm not sure there were enough in rewards when i made my seeker to learn her skills and upgrade her gears even with the dq coin. Im almost sure i had to funnel her coin from my main to keep up with leveling.

    The problem is to fast leveling, and no coin to upgrade anything. We are going to see alot more people in bhs 69-89 in crappy gear, and now with no skills.

    That is of course if many new players stick around to those lvls. Honestly the only ones this will benefit are players running up alts to 100. Which is pointless because current players will just run in frost anyway. Think this was a very bad call but of course it helps to add to the lvl fast and charge charge charge mentality.


    Idk, it just seems to me like pwi is taking up the welcome mat for new players by doing this. Things should be easier to do at low levels, until they get the hang of playing, (and hence get suxed into the game, becoming a full time costumer).
    As the older population slowly fades away for whatever RL issues take them away, there will be noone left to play... new customers are a good thing, you would assume they would be welcomed, not hit in the head with the proverbial welcome mat.


    Been thinking the same thing with each update over the past year. Like they are trying to run off new players and only cater to the 100+ cash crowd. It's Not just limited to updates but also in wording used by the CM in the news posts and other places. Gives you the impression they look down upon the new or lower leveled players.

    The reason for making low lvl DQ worthless is to counter bots. But we don't have the same problem with bots as PW-CN do, so hopefully they will do something about it here. Similar to the last "coin nerf" when they introduced DQ rewards :o

    Why would they add another system that halfway works some of the time and will rarely ever be updated when we the lovely DQ rewards now?

    The reason our version added this even though we don't have a bot problem is simple. They want low lvl's who start the game to buy zhen and sell gold for coin making it hard for them to play free till a higher lvl.

    Can I rage now? 1 coin for lower DQ drops SUCKS!! b:angry b:angry b:angry

    Rage about that? Did you use to farm dq's 20s ?b:chuckle

    Don't worry about that, the low level DQ's have a better use than npcing them for coins. Those Dq's can be sold to other people to get more banking space. I doubt this will change the market price of those DQ's.

    The smaller lowlevel-DQ price is probably countered by the higher coin rewards on low level quests. Considering how quickly they push you through those levels these days I doubt it will be a big deal.

    Or they could use them for... Dragon Quests? *gasp from the audience*

    Copper Dragon Orders should still sell for a fair amount of coins, right?

    because by the time you do them, you are past the level that the low level DQs drop at?

    What if you want to max your skills (And thus dumping exp into the genie'?)

    I could see lowering the price of the low level dqs but nerfing them to 1 coin is just plain silly imho.

    Not really, the real slowdown is when you start to run out of quests to do at around lv70-ish. Then you notice another big slowdown once you hit 101 when the exp needed for leveling up gets way higher.
