I've been logging in more recently for some unknown reason. I wish I could say it was the new content in the expansion but I don't have anyone that level. 71 necro Taninger is still working on evolving a handful of items that will never be as good as defiant. The progress is tediously slow but their chatter while killing stuff is like being in a real group while medding back in the day.

I started working on, of all things, a (twink) warrior that was parked in kael gear @ 46. Sweet gear for the level. I had a Franklin Teek task to kill some stuff in CoM and headed there. An hour later I left 4 levels higher. I still find this leveling curve seriously disturbing. After another Teek task I was 51 and shifting over to AA, which will delay leveling and placate me for a while. His incarnadine BP clicks at 50 for invis... I love that.

Honestly, what I really miss in this game was the all nighters just to get from 30 to 31. All the people you would meet and talk to because you had no other way to level. Easy isn't a panacea, and I'll find every way I can to delay every level I can.

XP rate on Phinigel progression server is more like that. (Taking me forever to get a few levels in the 40s).


Real life work has been insane for me, barely played at all the past few weeks. Hoping to get my Phinny rogue to 51 soon so I can regear.

I tried Ragefire, Lockjaw - the mage box armies really put me off on TLP. On top of that was the everything farmed for a krono mentality. I know Phinny doesn't have the mage boxes but what about the loot for krono crowd?

Pay to win exists on all servers in one form or another unfortunately. It's how most in game economies work.

Not sure farming for Kronos is "pay to win".

In fact, I'd call it "win to pay". Just the opposite.

"pay to win" is selling in-game items and abilities for $$ which give you a leg up over the rest. Kronos merely let you be all-access, which, it's true, give you a leg up over F2P. However, on the TLP servers, you must be all-access, so, don't really see this as P2W.

I didn't mean to make this about krono, really, sorry to bring it up. I went to look for a truncheon of doom in Sebilis today and thanks to a favorable RNG, the first armsman that spawned dropped it! That never happens to me.

Ding 85.

Went and did No Heroism Without Fear , thanks for the awesome info.

Spent some time trying to find a good place to solo at 85. I tried the Old Bloodfields.. which was ok, cept I remember why I hated the original Bloodfields (clouds of mobs, no good place to kite, and Kyv's all summon, add all the time, and run really fast). So after a few false starts, I found an ok spot and killed maybe 20 mobs before I found myself FD at the feet of a Kvy (at 10% health and without a pet). And then all the "good old days" in Omens came back to me.

The Dream looked promising when I was there for the quest - many white cons. Maybe I'll try and find a spot there.

I also have one of the 85 Teek dailies that wants to send me to The Foundation, which it alien to me. I know mob power will likely go SoF < SoD < UF < HoT - so I suppose to should search in that order?

All and all, having a good time (playing fairly slow.. I'm in my second month of Gold, started at level 72.. I know, but it's slow for *me*, I was an every night sort of player before).

You could try thinning out their numbers, rotdogs and snakes in Lower Floors.
