Default Hello Level 80!!

Coyote's not the only one thinking about the level cap. Kiara takes a look at arguments against raising the level cap in her latest editorial: Hello Level 80!!

The difference is, Kiara's not funny.

*snicker*

Default Re: Hello Level 80!!

i dont understand where people are coming from when they complain about how they are goign to have to get all new gear...ummm thats what u did when there wasnt a lvl increase =/

all this sums up to is 10 more lvls and having to get new spells.

i thought lots of the casual content got wasted in this xpansion b/c there was no lvl increase. No need for the dungeons except to kill named for loot...not like you need the xp. all you do is navigate through the zone for the "money shot"

If everything I've said about the issue went in one ear and out the other, then you'll enjoy this clusterfuck of soundbites.

i heard everything illum and im sorry but i think your just a lazy fuck and your just as bad as everyone else who wants the epic quest to be easy so every casual player can get one...a level increase will give up and coming raiders a great chance to get ahead of the server dominating counterparts. Everyone heard you and just spewed it out the same ear it came in. as for people complaining about its not fair they have to lvl up their alts thats tough shit, thats why they are alts. and to hide behind the excuse its not fair for the casual gamers who have to do 80 lvls now instead of 70 why the fuck do they care? they are casuals that just do grouping and quests and most give 2 less shits what max lvl is whether its 80 or 1000.

goddamnit there are 2 threads running on the same thing now

Make the epic quest as hard as you want without the smoke and mirrors of long camps. I will have mine regardless. But while we're making shit up, I may as well also add that I'd like crafting to be single-click.

Is this assuming that the dominators decide to suddenly sit on their asses, which they can just as easily do without the level increase?

What if they aren't alts but cooperative mains?

Every player who gets tangled up in the frustratingly slow noob grind is a player I can't sell goods to and a player I can't invite to fill the empty slot in my group. A thinly spread population is never as fun, neither in-game nor IRL.

This article lost me at ..

This right here is the argument that just tickles me pink and leaves me giggling over my Cheerios. And I'll tell you why.

Because the people sitting there griping about losing content and having nothing to do are the same jackholes who race through the new content and chew it up in a couple of weeks after it goes live.
Raiders want raiding content.

Why is that hard concept to understand? It's not about missing group content on the way to "whatever-cap". It's the fact I enjoy playing with 24 people not alone or with a group.

Since raiders are always last on the agenda it only makes sense that we try to hold on to what we have as long as possible.

It's not the same as EQ1, when we could grind for 10 hours at a time and just goof off. Now, everyone wants to do an instance and leave.
