any news on level cap?

Author Content Date
Making stingers /HH more acces able to lower levels would be a good start. As it happens we need them to catch up yet we have such a Tiney chance of getting the drop so our only way to obtain them is by paying all our best stuff to the high levels . This I believe makes the gap larger and means it's slower for us to catch up. Specially after the anvil breaks them. Especially for bows you need a decent tag or atleast a +1/2 untag to hunt well with .
This is even more apprent when you see capped chars making new chars that catch up and over take the rest of is in no time at all .

It's got nothing to do with people catching up, enough people have caught up, it's been 12months + since plum capped and since then, about 20+ more people have capped and that's only in hsoma. The only people that need to catch up now it's the new chars of capped players. People are so bored, they are making Better chars with tanks and getting better stats per %. Tbh Atm server is dead and even if new content is added, I still think it will be dead because it's been that long, it's hard to get motivated back into hunting. Would be nice to have something tho, see what happens.

Levelling needs to be consistent and not progressively harder. Progressive levelling is for squeezing in a lot of content into a level bracket. We don't have that here. It's not like wow in that 0-60 is classic 61-70 is expansion etc. it is stupid to have progressive difficulty in levelling

It's not just from a "I want to cap in a month" view. it's also expenetially more difficult to add new content when you work with progressively bigger numbers.

If you raise the cap now 50% of the current players will complain or even quit the game as they will be even further behind. it will also be even harder for new players to stick it out or returning players below Lvl 90 to come back and catch up.

If you don't raise the cap soon the other 50% of players who have capped will get bored, and quit the game.

Is it possible to please everyone? Not really because unlike WoW, soma has NO good end game content so there is nothing to keep the lvl 100s happy and entertained untill the cap is raised. here lies the main problem.

Lvl 100s... You have to ask yourself this question. Even if the cap is raised by lets say 10 lvls.that is gonna take you about a month to 2 months of extra game time, maybe a few new bosses (which will keep u happy for a futher few months) but before you know it you will be back to being capped and geared complaining about having nothing to do.

Conclusion
Shut down server!

Play World of Warcraft.

Maybe not raise level cap. But make level 100 quests for capped players? Like Esoma, but kill 12k of a certain mob for 1.0dex/ 4k of a different mob for 1.0str and same for int. No matter which stat u gain gives u extra hp too depending on your con. Think level 100s would be happy with this tbh.

It's been so long since I left the test server (4 years or so - since I started my current job) but I don't remember ever getting bored on there with my capped level character.

I can't for the life of me remember what the hell I used to do all day :) but whatever it was kept me interested. Maybe I just have rose tinted glasses but whatever the structure of things to do was on there could any ideas come from that?

Or if we're being stupid like the WoW response:

Conclusion
Shut down Server!

Bring back up test server with any improvements that have been made here since then and much much reduced rates from what they were originally on test server (with the rested exp from here).

Like I said stupid idea ^_^

Gms need to spend 5 hours between them push to make 70-100 a lot easier leave it for a month, in that month release cap with more stuff..

I don't want to sound rude or ungreatful but something needs to happen now, we've been saying for months changes need to be worked on.

What can we do to push something to happen GMs??

a simple farming mob which drops everything the average human needs would get me interested and back playing.
