Right now there's a few exp camps at 43+ for sure, but there is a pecking order. That's just inevitable though. There will always be a good-better-best when it comes to open world grinding. This is why it is crucial to offer many ways to level up and not pigeon-hole players only into grinding. SE needs to know this and it appears to be the direction Yoshida is taking us already. Let's keep our fingers crossed that future content like settlements, beastmen encampments, and hamlet defense keep the promise of providing us with content that is progressive both along the leveling curve and the gear-game.

Yoshi and Sundi working on the same game sounds like a nice team.

Humm, I went "meh" at all the changes and stopped playing a month after release, but I'm updating now because of the swimsuits. Yay for sex appeal <.< that and choosing Mithra as my char

Dunno where to put it but whatever..

If you're on Saronia and will be on after update lemme know. I wanna round up a group for testing/dungeons/shenanigans.

**Meko** · 2011-07-21 14:39

I will be but I'm not high enough for anything nor do I have a shell. Maybe I can find one once people start playing...

Where do I go to sign up for a Miqote swimsuit?!

**Waraji** · 2011-07-21 15:12

Wish you luck Kuro, see ya out there on the battlefield.

**Insanecyclone** · 2011-07-21 15:33

Enough to make me reactivate now. Is the updating still slow as hell or did it improve?

**Waraji** · 2011-07-21 15:36

It's never been slow. μTorrent.

FTFY

**Insanecyclone** · 2011-07-21 15:45

I remember doing that during beta. Forgot exactly where the files for it were but I'll look it up again.

**Corrderio** · 2011-07-21 15:46

Even with a torrent my DL speed is still crappy

**sruon** · 2011-07-21 15:46

I'll have the files most likely on a dedicated by the end of the maintenance

**Insanecyclone** · 2011-07-21 15:55

I assume the patch today will patch in everything else without having to dl each patch? Hurr question but I just did a clean reinstall.

**Kurokikaze** · 2011-07-21 15:58

That might be the case.. It's been the case for all updates after January. Incoming 1.5GB download.

Btw... Sruon has all the patches on his dedicated server so you can download from there.

**Insanecyclone** · 2011-07-21 15:59

Alright cool.

Please say you have it. I can only get ~15 KB/s on BitTorrent and the Installer.

**Niiro** · 2011-07-21 17:55

I'm getting 100-300 (usually ~200) from the official client, you need to let it run for a bit for it to pick up connections.
