How can anyone be bothered about this when you can get to level 20 in a day of pve? Scrubs that think levels 10-20 mean anything?

Hyperbole. All the boost does is allow people to level up faster in GWEN. That's it, once they hit 20, they're just like you (well, maybe a bit nicer than you)

problem: mini pets are expensive.

Funny, I don't have a mini-Oni, Yeti, Raincaller, Mallyx, Gwen, etc.

But then I guess I'm not "everyone".

Yep, I hate how Eternal swords drop everywhere now.

LOL. Well, what do you propose? (it's funny you call getting armor grind, but think rare weapons litter the ground)

Uh huh. Sounds like somebody needs a hug. Do you need a hug?

"Drama queen" indeed....

Most of the drama queens inhabit this forum.

So we have been nerfing ourselfs this entire time, damnit.

Saraphim · Dec 07, 2007, 10:42 PM // 22:42

Lol. Nah, it just means I think drama queen* is a hilarious term to apply to people who don't post here, unless Gaile Grey and Andrew Patrick are said hysterical people and are the only ones working at Arena.net.

Oh I see that it says they permanently lowered the level to 10. I don't know why'd they do that but it doesn't really matter I suppose. Considering it only takes 5 hours to get to level 20.

HawkofStorms · Dec 07, 2007, 11:04 PM // 23:04

I'm not upset about level 10s being in GW:EN. They won't get far. Newbies won't be able to handle playing against level 28s. Even with boosted attributes, builds would still be terrible, as would aggro management/damage reduction etc.

bhavv · Dec 07, 2007, 11:09 PM // 23:09

Their armor is boosted to max as well, all they need is one elite scroll for WoH, SF or Fleshy etc and they are just as good as you ZOMFG NERF PLOX NOOOEEES!!!

Steboy93 · Dec 07, 2007, 11:14 PM // 23:14

I understand your points freekedoutfish, but to be honest I'm indifferent on the matter and don't think it will have much, if any, impact on the game.

Holy crap I didn't even think of that!

Damage dealt is affected by the difference in level between monsters and the player.
A lvl 20 monster hits a lvl 20 player for 100% damage. A lvl 24 monster hits a lvl 20 player for over 100% damage (don't know the exact equation) because of the difference in level.

So even though the lvl 10-19 players get their HP and armor buffed to lvl 20 status, their actual level is still 10-19. Does that mean monsters will hit them for more damage then they do lvl 20 characters (because the level difference is larger)? Or does the game simply treat their level as 20 when calculating damage?

Damn, that is a HUGE question that needs to be answered.

Big_Daddy · Dec 07, 2007, 11:16 PM // 23:16

I don't care.

Chico · Dec 07, 2007, 11:17 PM // 23:17

My view?

Anet is hungry and wants to sell more copies of GW:EN, that's the idea behind the lvl 10 and 5 hour trial. Think about it, new player in GW:EN with only 5 hours... In 5 hours they won't cover all that GW:EN has to offer and maybe they'll want to continue playing... They would need to buy it then. If they had 15~20 hours instead of 5 maybe they'll find out there's not much to do afterwards and won't make the buy. Anet didn't stop there, improved drops, honeycombs, etc. are there just as a way to make new guys think drops are bettern in GW:EN.

Lame weekend.

from my reading / knowledge / testing... it is the damage delt from lvl 20 to everyone is greater then lvl 10 using same spell / skill... this doesnt effect core dmg, as in crit on axe is still crit, but skill does alittle more dmg if used.

this more effects caster weapons and spells... but only is effective in relative to lvl of caster / attacker, not to the lvl of what you are attacking... my lower lvl char, lvl 10 does get hit softer from skills of lvl 10 warrior then lvl 20 warrior, but the "core" or "base" damage of both is the same, even with attributes the same accross all...

also, THIS IS NO WEEKEND EVENT... ITS A FULL BLOWN PERM UPDATE

Chthon · Dec 07, 2007, 11:45 PM // 23:45

I've got no problems with it. I have no difficulty ignoring their requests for runs and denying their "join party" requests. If they want to come H+H EotN, that's fine with me.

cellardweller · Dec 08, 2007, 12:19 AM // 00:19

The whole L1-19 part of guildwars is just the tutorial mode. Anything that allows players to skip it and start playing gw proper is a good thing. They need to add some 30 attribute quests up there too.

Toxage · Dec 08, 2007, 12:31 AM // 00:31

Oh my god! People accessing a product they paid for? OMG!

Who the heck cares? If their is someone under 20 trying to get into your group, then don't let them in.

How does someone accessing EOTN content affect you? It doesn't, you just want another thing to whine about.

Seriously shut up. Just go to factions, and reach level 20 in a couple hours. This allows more people to become involved EOTN, allowing more groups to be formed for dungeons/vanquishing/HM.
