Is it me or does anyone hating leveling? I hear how a lot of people love the way from 1-60 but hate the post 60 content. And this has to do with every MMO. It must be because I use to play SWG constanly and burned my self out from all the holo grinding that i can't take it anymore.

Anyone else like the the Post 60 better?

Anyone else feel this way?

    Levelling for first time or being somewhere for the first time while lvling is fun. But when u play up ur 3rd character it becomes rly boring. WHen ur lvl 60 u in some way get used to do crits for 1k for example, when u then sit and play and try to kill a mob and just does 20 crits, it feels so slow. So I would say, there are few from what I know, but ur not alone.

    WoW is designed so that the levelling is probably the most fun part of the game, really.  The fun of exploring new areas, progressing in abilities as you do so, progressing in going around the map and becoming familiar with all of the zones ... that's really what Blizzard's' game design excelled at.  The problem with pre-BC level 60 was that it was way too limited: raid, raid, raid, raid, PvP while waiting for raid, raid, raid, raid.  Now, if you like raiding, that's fine, but a lot of people don't like raiding because of the block of time required to do it, and the repetative nature of it.  So I actually think that WoW's strong point is its levelling rather than its end-game.

    I agree with u at some point, but PvPing is never the same. U never meets the same opponents and u never know what will happen when fighting. Imo I think that the exping is strong and the endgame content is strong, sure it's very raid bases, but u don't need to be too hardcore to raid. I myself may only play later then 22:00 on fridays and saturdays and I'm in a pretty good guild who is progressing good. And what I like about raid is that if ur playing with nice persons it doesn't become repitive. I myself play this game because I like the community u join when u get into a guild. U get very close friends with the rest in the guild from cooperating with them to reach a goal that is hard to manage.

    Definitely some people like raiding, and that's fine.  For me, I prefer not to raid, and I like to RP, so once my (old) main reached level cap, I focused on RPing and setting up RP events, helping out younger characters advance in levels, and (some) PvP.  So it worked fine for me as well, but that's because I played the game as I wanted to, and not really as the developers would have wanted me to.



    As for now, it's moot for the moment because I now have 10 more levels to make with my (old) main, and another 60 to make with my new BE main.  So plenty to do!

    I like the new content for 60+, I haven't done a whole lot yet, because I made my new main a BE Paladin. The BE area is wonderful and so many quests my quest log is always at least half full. All in all I would say that BC is the best expansion for a MMORPG I have ever played.

  • Post 60?



    Well I find raiding incredibly stupid and borng so I can't appropriately answer yoru question for WoW.



    However I generally find the low levels when you have limited abilities annoying and much less interesting and in the context of WoW prefer the gameplay of 40+.  However I would rather drills holes in my head than raid in WoW so I can say much about post 60.  And in general I very much dislike the idea of a capped level but ever increasing item power endgame.  Its a cheap ass cop out that perpetuates the problem the cap is designed to solve all just to capitalize on obsessive behavior.  Post 60 WoW is all around disgusting.  Or post 70 now I guess.

    leveling from 1-60 more then once per side (horde/alliance) does get a little bland. though I agree with what someone else mentioned earlier that the leveling and questing in WoW is the best part.

    BC gives 4 new noob zones, I only really plan on playing my Blood Elf and Dranei character up to the point I have to leave the new zones (level 20 or so I think) and so far I absolutely love the new content. it's so nice to have fresh, interesting, and most of all unknown content to enjoy.

    Though I haven't gotten too far into Outland, so far I really really enjoy the way they've done the post 60 game. True, it's pretty much the same old formulas of "kill this", "collect that", "go there" but if you take the time to read the quest text a lot of it is really cool. Also, guess I'm the type of player who gets excited seeing new things and fighting the unknown.

    Who knows what's going to happen when I get to 70, probably same raid/raid/pvp repeat formula as before, but the part I enjoy most about the game is the community and all friends I play with, so raiding Sun-Thurs for hours on end is still a lot of fun if you are playing with people you really enjoy talking to and hanging out with.

    I only pray that the 25-man raid cap, difficulty settings, and hour or so "wings" for all raids will greatly help the end game move more quickly and be more fun.. as well as the 70 arena system with ladders and contests and champions should be a fun break from battlegrounds and raiding.

    i don't agree what you are saying about.... in achieving the lvl 60 was a great fulfillment in a game...

    OP, i'm with you. I hate leveling verry much, in face I hate ALL PvE very much. It just dosen't seem rewarding to kill a computer generated monster rather than some idiot in his bedroom.

    A complaint of mine about how Blizzard set their game up is with the BOP items in the various Instances.  For example, my level 60 Warrior is still wearing his green Imperial Plate armor...that he can make as a Blacksmith!...because I cannot buy complete sets of the better blue gear such as the Valor and Light forge stuff.  I wish Blizzard would make all of the Instance Drops BOE because otherwise only a few items in any complete set are BOE while most are BOP.  This sort of forces you into the Instances that can take many hours at a time...and I simply can't do that.  Don't get me wrong..I'm certainly not saying, "Hey, Blizzard just because I can't get this stuff you Need to change it to suit my needs." I'm just saying that it's a grievance of mine, that's all.  :)

    Or maybe they could at least make some of the sets completely BOE while the more lusted after stuff could remain BOP...oh well.

    Leveling in most games feels like work. I dont care how much you casual play, it still requires work to get from one level to the next.

    Don't be terrorized! You're more likely to die of a car accident, drowning, fire, or murder! More people die every year from prescription drugs than terrorism LOL!
