I think levelling should be harder! I miss the good ol’ days.

thoughts to come when I have time to post them. it’ll never happen, because players are lazy and want it as easy as their previous game.

Zizlak: Go on, write a post! You know you want to

And the main reason I find alting in WAR unappealing is because I burned out on tier 3 last time (I got through it, but I have no wish to do it again. Tor Anroc was OK but I don’t wanna go back there!)

With my currently 5 played chars in WAR I don’t think that leveling an alt in WAR is unappealing.
The problem of WAR is that the leveling speed is not constant. You slow down towards the end of the tier and there people feel some sort of leveling-speed-bump and this confuses them.

I agree that people see solos quests just as a speed bump. That is sad because even if its just a “kill x fozzles”-type of quest, there are some really nice stories behind some of those quests. My fun in questing in WAR really went up when I started to only read the story-line text of the quests and don’t try to skip those stories.

This is an interesting topic and there is much more to say about it. Maybe I should write something about it..this comment is already long enough
