Enjoyin it so far. Seems easy. That might be because have had a lot of practice and know what kit to wear but mobs do seem to die much faster than I expected
Don't understand veteran.
I think people really enjoy the euro mir feel which means hunting in groups until 40+ Its a challenge to get to ZT kr with enough pots and a live wizard. So letting them level too fast past that changes they way game is played.
Yes Ok there's the few that want to outlevel everyone else and solo bosses before anyone else and declare themselves top of heap. No one is impressed any more. Most people have done that over last 15 years.

I think its a Clever way of doing the EXP as the people grinding out will level but the more casual people wont fall massively by the way side. People still have to level there skills etc which takes time away from levelling but Jamie has to look at the server as a whole and wants everyone to be able to log on and enjoy what time they have whether than be 1 hour or 8 hours.

I take it this is not low rate, as you noticed it is way easy and its not because we know what to do, on official mir like gamepot, when I sort of knew what to do I couldn't kill BE as level 10 warrior or level in mineral mines as I do now at 16, never mind killing OW when lev11 in basic shop items (needed like 15-20 level on official mir and some better items, I still remember doing my first at lev19 on warrior).

Veterans cater to those who see gameplay starting only at 33 or better 40 level. That attitude won't change unless someone else made the server which won't happen here. That was one reason I commented on the files, whether they might sometime become available... which was mainly because of this, that from certain pple you only get certain server (like from Ben it will be high rate, won't get low rate from him). I think most pple who even on low rate servers (even including official ones) had three or even four chars ~ lev40 did that because they actually enjoyed the slog getting there. But as Veteran here you won't worm your ass in those caves. That said, its interesting idea and probably will percolate (plus other features from these files) to crystal files, at least those which are doable there.

These days even low rates are misnomers as to make server approach something like official euro 2001, you'd have to adjust for today's play skills and mir know how and make it so it would be as slow going as it was then. Ideally you should crap seeing raking cat, never mind Yeti on starting out character and even hens should not be easy and deer you would need to use pot (or better pots)... and gold and drops in general as scarce as on korean server which I once started char on and couldn't believe how poor my takings were. You should have to scrounge around to get pots or RT scrolls when below level 10, it should take some ingenuity to get going, else there is no point like it is done nowadays even on low rates, when you click a mob and wait...


Thanks for the pots sounds. Is there reason why F9 & 10 - 12 are not used? The keys like C for char panel and others I got to look for every time. The extra two quick slots I don't see use for, maybe when the bag is full I can still pick up couple items, actually three as TTs are not in game. Maybe the extra slots will find use later on at higher levels?

Few few points from my time ingame

f9-12 are for skills, I needed these when I played a Tao on the test server, there will be new skills later so it seems wasted having two buttons for he same action
belt extension my belt is set up with 2 different suns gingsing 2 hp types 2 mo types and rts. To me it's perfect.


exp will slow down to euro rate at 40+ some, some will Moan it is to slow. But this will bunch everyone together for a decent fights etc.

reason why it was easy killing low level subs is purely to make the low levels easy, I don't think the casuals want to struggle killing these sort of subs.

Ok thanks for comments.
Agree some people think game only starts when you reach 33 or even 40 or whenever there's a chance of solo/2man some or all of the bosses.
Slowing levelling down a bit at 33 more at 38 not just at 40. slowing em down at 40 should bunch them up a bit like u say
