Short version:strong text
game lacks 130-200 content, tries to fill it in with boring as hell dungeons that takes ages for zero rewards that take forever to do. which result in me and my friends having a hard time to boot up the game as we first have to push ourself through 5 hours of this torture.
And don’t think about not doing it, because it’s your only way of exp income.
Long version
0-99:
Dungeons can be done, doesn’t ahve to be done. The 2 dungeons i could do without a token was fun to get a chance on a arde dagger other hten that it gave some exp but not realy needed to progress, as there are lots of quests / maps and experience cards to gain
100-130:
You get missions here so 2x dungeons 2x missions. Instead of the choice of having to do them, you pretty much are locked into it as something you need to do, because the content just isn’t there. Really low amounts of maps + quests and therefore cards.
130-186:
I bought a token, because quests and cards distrubution on these maps are terrible, you hardly get any. so 30% for monster experience and that 1 more dungeon and mission is pretty much a must have to get.
The map amounts are absolutely dreadful at this level zone, and such little quests on them on top of it. It makes it a grind fest mainly with heavily camped spots by people that makes it a battle on who gets the kills. EXP is dreadful and totally not worth my time to grind on those locations.
So basically what you will be doing, is do your “dialy’s” and that’s exactly what i struggle with and makes it feel like a wall you first have to pass before you can do something else.
To give you a example:
162:
Dungeons:
I sign up for 3x 145 dungeon ( as 160 dungeon is terrible ), average wait time of 25 minutes each dungeon. That’s 1 to 1,5 hour on average, just waiting for the dungoen to even load. ( you can’t do anything else in the waiting process as it locks your char in place )
Then with a good group its 30 minutes minimum, and 1 hour with a bad group
So at it’s average its 45m each dungeon, that’s another 2 hours and 15 minutes added with that. Which makes it 3 hours and 45 minutes. Just of doing these dungeons which basically gives you 80% of your level.
Missions:
3x missions can be done: Each wait time has about 15 minutes on average which equals to 45 minutes wait time.
The dungeon takes about 20-30 minutes each, so that’s another 1,5 hour, that’s together about 2-2,5 hours.
That makes it around 5 hours to just do those daily.
As there is a lack of maps / cards you get and quests on those level area’s it’s pretty much the only thing you do. And it’s a borefest. Always the same thing, always the same waiting time and always a gamble on how your group functions ( no healer / tank ) etc etc.
It gets old fast. It’s like at this level range the only way to level is, do the same boring 2 maps all over again every single day for 5 hours long and got not much exp out of it as result.
It basically makes me not want to boot up the game anymore. Because if i skip them and not do them, i will simple go nowhere. Farming in bee place with a group is also extremely boring after a hour and the exp is just terrible in my opinion.
