This is an event and no permanent change. Its quite a difference.

We will do events on Uthgard. All types of it depending on how creative we are.


I'm 99% sure that he was being sarcastic Blue :P

Please do more of these. Once a month or something would be awesome!


I think we can all agree that this is a fantastic idea.
It adds a little boost without ruining the journey.


Disagree, it ruins the investment - reward ratio, is unfair to those who cannot exp that time etc.

So we all do not agree. And it is definitely a slippery slope, people already asking for rp boost weekends and monthly exp bonus, nothing which Goa or Mythic did in 1.65 live.


whatever to this lol,, as stated it's an event, and they will do events as it's not a permanent thing. Even if it was a weekly thing when i dont get to play, i dont see it as a bad thing for the server or the population. I may not be able to take advantage of it, but the majority would and more people = more fun to me.. but then again I'm not all about me.




"Very bad idea in my opinion - I am leveling my 2nd rvr char atm but still dont think it is deserved, needed or a good direction to take the server".

Another one that made me laugh a little. How many character slots did mythic give you 1 , 2, 3 nope... obviously they had no intention on people making 1 or 2 characters... But... But... they were making money on the sub's... Yup but here you pay nothing, so take your time and do it a your pace, no one made you level a 2nd rvr toon, you chose to do it.

I just wanted to say thanks to the devs for the Easter Bonus Exp event. 20% is a small bonus and I'm under no delusions that I'll be soaring in levels because of it, but still, it's a very kind gesture to those of us who have been very vocal about the exp grind. I'll gladly accept the crumbs of good will & hope that it signifies that perhaps many of us have been heard.

Thanks guys. :grin:
- Love,
Grunkle

All you RP people, why don't you get the frick off the server? You're ruining the bad mood attitude! With your happy elven sprinkle crap. :roll: :roll: Go roleplay somewhere else, maybe, if you're lucky, the Abendwind server is still alive.

Great to see an event helping with XP in RvR zones, bringing hopefully a few more people into BG's.

Luckily that doesn't marginalise PvE as somebody suggested ... who would want that?

In any case, increased XP in BG's and frontier zones is certainly something which helps to get more people into those zones ... could this event be a testrun?

cheers

Realm point bonus events are highly unlikely to be seen on Uthgard, it was a huge mistake to introduce them to the live servers.
People coming together as a community can make great things happen.

Please call up your ISP and ask them to downgrade ur internet connection to a 56k modem as a fibre line is not 1.65.... also please sell ur PC and buy a potatoe as a gtx1080 and acompanying parts is not 1.65.

Also please call up Marty McFly and ask to borrow his time machine as having to work all day and spend time with the wife and do other adult things is not 1.65.

As someone who works in hotel trade and weekends and peak play time nights this is very dispointing news.

Just more of a way to fall behind the weekend players.

Seems people who need biggist boost of xp are onces who play non peak times when less groups and people are around.

Also the boost xp In bgs is gone make it hard to do Caledonia bgs quest with out killing yourself countless times.
turn off xp for bgs command would help.

If the same boost was given to players from monday to friday after easter or extended for week it would be appricated alot more.

And make it fair for the whole community of Uthgard


as it stand it benfits the weekend players and people who don't work over easter.

so i will fall behind more the weekend players and have grind even more and find even less groups after the event.


just dispointing makes the game uneven un classic unfair

You work 96 hours over the weekend? I can't believe that. Or Do you stay away from home? I'm not belittling your post, I'm just trying to understand how that is any different to an average player that works weekdays and has a family?

For example, in my opinion, this Easter weekend is probably the worst weekend of the year other than Christmas to have an xp weekend. I'll most certainly be spending time with my family and I'll do a hell of a lot less gaming. It kinda sucks that this is just some Easter deal when realistically we need a 20% xp boost as a standard. It should just be like that from here on. Thats just my opinion though.

My mind’s made up, don’t confuse me with facts.
You mustn't assume that your personal situation is a reflection of every other person that has logged in to Uthgard.
