i cant log in to test server but everyone who can says we will need to grind stf to lvl since episodes wont give even close to enough to lvl ,so what is the point of new episodes if we wont be able to get lvls with them and we will be forced to grind stf to can lvl up?even curent 2x xp boosting for testing do not help to solve this problem how much i know :( i would hate to see this update to turn in massive grinds to gain lvl

    For a new character or player, they will reach 50 way before they make it to these missions. They will have plenty of more story missions to do before DR content if they want to level that way. For the rest of us veterans, the content is designed to level via multiple paths. EX. Doffing, STFs, story missions, and many other things. The only reason why it's taking so long right now on tribble is because nobody is really hitting all the different ways to get XP. It will be better when this hits holodeck.

    Which sucks for those of us who've been level 50 for several years now with tens of millions of BOff exp blown on Starbase projects.

    i think by the time you reach level 50, the mission xp just stops and then kill per xp becomes the big concern. frankly its one issue i dont agree with since i first read about it, i havent stated anything about it until now, but there has to be a way to ease a player into this type of grinding, i mean the devs themselves recognize its not working on tribble already and put up a double xp to help out testing, so what are the chances it will come to work on holodeck without all the whining and complaining?

    i hit level 55 and just stopped at that point. it;s just not worth it right now mainly because the specialization points are not in and the character will have to be deleted once it is

    It is one of those conflicts that occur between new and old players.

    as you level up the amount of xp per mission drops, even before we hit 50 but a new player would still be playing older missions, and would have a vast number of pve queues opening up. remember there are thousands of players joining every month so the system has to work a certain way for a new player's experience. its not meant to be that quick.

    it does suck a bit for older players and all the potential xp we could have earned through the years of grinding is pointless but lets be honest most of us are here because we grind things over and over. the new borg queue, the kobali adventure zone are meant to be replayed and most people will to get the accolades, get delta reputation, playing the new missions over again to select different gear, doing new doff missions or just playing older missions and events because they still need to finish them off, will all contribute.

    it is just to big grind atm if ppl have problem reaching lvl 52 what u think how hard will be to get to 60, if they keep current xp it would make game to hardcore for a lot of players who playes few hours a day and think they are main part of our playerbase and i dont see nothing fun in grinding for days stf to gain lvl :(
