Ok, yes i understand powerleveling is "cheating" and defeats the purpose of the game but, Why do soo many people charge to do it? Its not like its hard for those 55 monks to level you while they gain exp themselves. I just wish there were more generous 55 monks that would be willing to help the poor out, like me

You'll take their drops and they have to keep an eye on you. Besides, why should you get something for nothing?

true story... anyway i quit 55ing a long time ago

True: Most powerlevelers charge 1-2k per level AND require you to give them every item that drops for you.

I don't see the problem...They SHOULD get everything that drops for you, because you are just standing there doing nothing taking their profit otherwise. And the 1-2k per level is just a reason for them to take you..they have to watch out that you don't die, and this often times adds time to their runs, costing them money in the end...Anyway, most powerlevelee's are happy to pay for quick levels.

I'll from time to time take someone I like and not charge them (not often, as I don't take items and that costs me profit) - But I will NEVER EVER EVER take someone that has this "I shouldn't have to pay" attitude...Especially those lvl9-10 SS necros that think they shouldnt have to pay when they are "helping" by throwing a hella weak SS on 1 troll and most of the time getting some trolls to pull off and chase them because their stupid.

I'll power level you for 35K in advance. I keep the drops and when I see you even pick up a rusty hammer, I rage-quit and you'll get no refund

Why don't you simply create a pvp character? They come with all the stuff and skills you need.

I really don't get power leveling in this game. Do quests, you get xp. The game only goes to level 20 for pete's sake. It's not that hard. Especially for canthans, all the quests give buckets of xp and money, grab the hench and go.

They gotta pick it up so they can drop it for you to pick up

unless you just like waiting 5 minutes every run for it to unassign.

/I know its a joke

People that get powerleveled aren't people that are going to pvp with the chracter (or even do the pve storyline)

Its mostly:
low lvl Monks that WILL 55 when they get to a decent lvl to do it
low lvl Necros that WILL SS when they get to a decent lvl to do it

Money is one of your least concerns. You are asking someone to give their time for you. Nobody knows you, so you can't call them friends. You need a friend to do that.

Kilane · Jul 13, 2006, 08:50 PM // 20:50

Powerleveling in this game is absolutely pointless and people who want/need it are weak, impatient, and this is completely and totally the wrong game for them. They need to go play WoW or EQ.

You can take any char from 1 - 20 in about a days playing time.

If you have Factions, cut that time in half for gods sake.

That 1-2k it costs you to get PLed, you're really going to wish you had it when it comes time to shell out 15k for armor (okay, I personally have never been able to justify myself paying 15k for armor with the same stats as 1.5k armor, but that is just me)

Your asking people to power level you for free. Pointless, closed.
