I see no issue with that, you can solo but its really hard and not very profitable. Its a MMORPG, there are plenty of RPGs available for those who want to play alone.
I know that’s why I said if you didn’t notice, you’re ■■■■■■. Unless you have a stat reset in your hands ofc.
The problem is that not every sw is a tank. This topic however is discussed already in bigger topics. The swordie class currently is a lacklaster and forcing you to pick circles and play them as a tank. Nvm, this topic has more than 1k post already, pointless to discuss it here.
@Ayalon …actually in old Ragnarok the best place was Clock tower to farm.
After that Seals came and they were hunted by many and so on… I remember spending my entire life in clock tower. 
I know I said even non tanks.
The only thing I find unfair for swordies is that they have to fight up close and run to their targets. If pain barrier gave them a damage reduction they would be fine. Anyways wtv let’s not go on a tangent.
I did more than 8 just to level back on RO (vanilla) days. Wiki was non-existant. And exploring map, trying to find where to level, or how many exp you gain or even loot infos was not present. So yeah
Too bad you didn’t do a little bit of research, otherwise you could spare yourself from grinding. When I reached 175 I didn’t grind for even a minute, and after 175 you get another dungeon and more quests.
I think they should make whole world map to be opened from the start, so people can see where to go without googling world map.
Well… I do X) I also don’t like to rely always on others… I’m also afraid you can’t find parties for everything anytime…then just waiting for hours…
I still do think solo play is needed in most mmos…so in tos too. So we won’t agree in this but nvm. X)
Although the game is far from finished so I think later when we get some different features the whole thing will be better.
@Athem I also had some Anubis years later…X) …and dunno what else…
when the skill potion reset our class choice,that would nice.so you have the chance to try some other speccs.but so zzzz
Damn casual, get out.
Well each to their own. At very least we can civilly disagree.
People need to chill out, my god
I had the satisfaction of reading this whole topic and i must say its hard to encounter so many self-righteous pricks, what in the world
Its just game
I guess it would be okay if they created some soloable but really, really shitty and inefficient content so that solo players at least have something to do rather than nothing at all. Like easier mobs that give really crappy exp.
Not being able to solo? I solo-ed from level 1 - 272. Waiting to finish solo-ing from 272 - 280 this week. O_o I’m a squishy ele3warlock
RO p.much was more effective if you partied up
A lot of people that havent reached max level here have tos experience, I played on ktos until level 250 or something.
In the beta, IMC said the game would be much easier when officially out to test all game features, faster. So compare the current game, the beta is not valid.
In addition, the game itself is made for group play for the number of classes there derived utility and support. It would not be fair to those who decide to go down the path of support, all dps can / want to go all the way alone, because others are condemned to choose the path of support; as it happens in almost all MMORPGs. Where full support can not do anything. In TOS we have the ability to make a build that is capable of supporting and some dps, but this is not enough.
We must also bear in mind that the level 280 is not the maximum and still have a long way to go. and it is illogical that in a game that is dedicated to the cooperation of classes, only a few can go all the way alone; because that would also be an imbalance of classes that affect pvp time too.
TOS is a game where no matter what path you take; together, in cooperation, we can achieve the highest goal.
Maybe you can for a while to do everything on your own, without others; but there will come a time when cooperation with other classes is necessary to continue.
Even the game has cooperative skills between classes, to make group play more efficient and entertaining. But everyone wants to be self-sufficient to not depend on anyone; and that’s not the idea.
End the “I can do everything on my own” and start with “together we can go further.” that is what happens in the real world; one can not satisfy all their goals without the support and help of others.
I have not played the game yet; but I follow the game since it was announced in Gstar 2013.
But without having played, it is what I understand the concept and that is what attracts me most of the game.
Sorry for my english, im not a native speaker.
KToS does not = Beta 
It was released before IToS and our release client was the same as theirs with minor tweaks on a couple of classes. And after early access we fell further and further behind on balance changes, but exp has not changed since then.
The real question is why you want to reach max level :).
In Ktos exp recently changed. Nothing related to difficulty though.
my bad i stopped following closely after IToS came out. All i focus on now are the costumes and balance changes, and keep wishing we would get them.
