Nericus Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 First, I like them. They are a nice way to restore the vet badges. But as I recall, they stop after 99, and I have heard of no plan to add anymore of them, which is fine. Yet I see some people that are significantly higher then vet level 99, which again is fine, mileage varies and to each their own. But aside from in game status symbols or a players own sense of gratification/ego, and the occasional level up buff, wouldn't it be better at vet level 99 to shut off XP gain and just rack up influence?

Do you have so much influence that you will give me a billion influence? If not, then you don't have enough. 3 1 I went to Ouroboros all i got was this lousy secret!

Well if you have 2 billion inf on that alt then yeah that is enough unless they raised the limit. I mainly ask as my main is closing in on vet level 99, just wondering if I need to go past that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavric Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 This is why most modern MMO's are failures. Levels and, "End Game", are toxic concepts to a game you're supposed to keep playing--and paying for. What more do I do, once I've reached the end? Bad developers! No donut! Stop making scaling systems that have an end! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperPlyx Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 What I find interesting is original post was July 26.... So server was online what 3 months and already had toons well over vet level 99. That says something about how much people love playing this game. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorDitko Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 To the point, though, did recent changes make it so turning off XP isn't useful? Disclaimer: Not a medical doctor.

Display Name Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 I was on a server were Vet levels had been turned off. You still earn salvage/threads/etc, but you didn't progress past level 50. I didnt see any difference at all in gameplay other than the loss of salvage generated from leveling as a Vet. @Super Whatsit Superbase passcode (Excelsior) is "passcode-6475" It's all a Nemesis plot. But not everything is a Nemesis plot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
