Nother idea

[versengeteriks]

ur prolly getting used to my crap ideas but its quantity with me i never promised Quality!

We have a lot of people here who are into powerlevelling mostly because they have played and searched all the lowbie areas Toooo often.

Would it be possible for those players who have put the time into playing HG, to have the option to level up to a higher point at startup (at the rowan guardian? maybe to 40? leave it to you to figure how). Partly i suggest this for any players who cannot put the time in but have fought hard to get some good chars.

Partly to reduce some lag.

And partly because new people are missing out on some really nice aspects of HG at lower levels. All the fun of exploration etc for as noob but they are getting sucked into thinking powerlevelling is the tradition on HG, and are rushing to get to the post immo spots and missing the fun on the lower areas.

HG has a rich and numerous source of areas to discover. if you race through too fast it seems a much smaller place very fast, and then you get bored and leave.

By allowing veterans the choice to power upto 40 fast it might reduce the powerlevelling ethos from becoming the norm for noobs, and encourage more people to explore some off the beaten track areas again.

I think this is arguably the most rubbish idea I have every heard. This has nothing to do with lag. It has nothing to do with helping newbies explore the server. IMO it is merely a suggestion that will mean experienced players can get onto the high end of the server and not have to go through that annoying process of getting the character to a level where they can use all their UR equipment.

Now on a different note. Currently if you miss a ring you have to cash in a rare weapon of a certain type, and pay some cash. This IMO sucks as experienced players have loads oof these weapons, newbies will struggle to find them. As such how about changing it so that you have to cash in the staff of anduin (from the forgotten forest) and maybe another annoyingly placed item that people rarely visit. That will encouage people to go to non power leveling areas if they are too busy leveling to get their rings..... ;D

I personaly enjoy lvling lowbies and i htink that it should stay the way it is right now. If noobs want to power level that is thre choice but they also ahve the choice to go and wander around hg. I remember when i was a noob i was always out wandering around. no1 is forcing them to go power lvl. I htink what versengeteriks meant about the reducing lag was it would = lesss people massing the farm and such areas(could be wrong) but i still think it would ruin hg.

Yeah, you won't see that happening. You WILL see more quests in diverse parts of the server, though probably not till the hells and artifact areas are done.
