Default BRING IT ON! Raise the level cap and make it another solo quest grind to 90!!

Seriously.

I'm an officer in my guild, and it seems like every person who as whined and complained about the solo quests, or begged for help because it was too hard, or otherwise bitched about the time spent levelling, has turned out to be a DUD as a recruit.

Yeah, it's a grind, yeah it's a little dull. But you know what else is dull? Pulling mobs and dying repeatedly trying to learn a strategy. Paying repair bot bills with plat you'd like to spend on Masters. Going into instances with less than perfect groups because you need the gear from them to do your job.

Solo quests are NOT HARD. As a guild recruiter, the best recruits I've had are the people who INDEPENDENTLY figure out how to play their classes to the best of their ability. The people who go out of their way to research what they need, and then do what it takes to get it together on their own.

People whining about group content strike me as the sort who just want to leech off the 5 or 23 other people in their group or raid to get the loot/xp without really working for it. And don't tell me that it's harder for healers to solo quest and they *need* groups, because my husband and I both have solo ground healers up. (Mine's only 73 because it's not a priority, but still.)

You know what? Solo quests will weed out the losers, and I'm sick and tired of dealing with them.

BRING IT ON. MORE SOLO QUEST GRINDS!

When I saw 'BRING IT ON' I thought of cheerleaders. And all I got was this fucking boring shit.

Questing has nothing to do with raid skill or raid content, in fact imo the lack of raising the level cap leaves concentration on other things like (OMG) Raid Content.

I don't think solo questing is hard. However I think it's fucking retarded as hell. Solo quests will weed out people who don't want to play an MMO without other people.

Seriously, fuck off if you want more solo quests to grind to 90, even though it's pretty much the way every single MMO will be now that people seem to be attached to it. At least until the next break out game, which could be who knows when!

But shut the fuck up about solo questing. I was 2nd to 80, I thought it was retarded as hell. The time it takes is a drop in the bucket(2 days straight). It's not fun, it's boring as hell. Questing for leveling is dumb.

Fucking bullshit thread.

Another 10 levels of NOT learning how to play your character in a group. Gratz!

RoK launch was cool. Hit 71.8 or something with collections, then went to PoA with Envye, Huxley and Inaba whilst all the tards were tripping over each other in the new zones. Then I went to bed whilst Envye boxed my toon, woke up the next day lvl 73. Sweet.

The people who put the hard work in to grind to 80 fast are more likely to be emotionally crushed by the massive disappointment that is RoK raiding.

Am I the only one who sees the irony of the recruiter being so adverse to playing with others? Or that doing something that isn't hard somehow grooms the best players? Or that back in my day a 'loser' was someone with no friends that was forced to play alone?

I vote for bringing the level back down to 70.
not really....

but the sheer pointlessness that is solo questing makes me not want to level again. ever.

The grind to 90 should involve killing a fuckton of heroic mobs and be accommodated by quests that make sense (not kill 200 mobs and then go find a bag in the corner of the zone). We need more EQ1 leveling and less ezmode/gimme free xp content.
