Really hate admitting it, but haven't played in weeks...I've lost all interest in the game until the next update. I still read the forums, but haven't launched at in atleast 3 weeks....

Yeah, that can happen. I pick little goals to make grinding worthwhile. For example, right now without fatigue I can kill the wyrm trainers with 3 hits. However, with fatigue after three hits they still have about 1-4 HP left. So I'm grinding to the next level to add to my AD so I can kill them more often with just 3 hits with fatigue.

I've found the upcoming skill system has given me the motivation to keep going for XP. And now that I've got my AD to 25 (with the +6 rings) I'm going to try to get my AC above 200%. Then maybe increase the BC a little, since its pretty low using the quickstrike dagger.

For the amount I play, it takes me about a week to get enough XP to level up these days.

What I've done is started a new character. I'm level 1 with over 280,000 experience. I gain about 5,000 xp per day. So when, or should I say if, the next update comes out, I can level right up to level 25 gaining skills from the start. Also, I haven't done a single quest.

I had considered starting a new game just to go through everything with the knowledge I have now, but I felt I had gotten too far to start over. I think the next update might have more save slots though so I might reconsider it then.

By the way, the skill points are going to be retroactive, so you will have 1 skill point for every level you're already at. The only thing it won't be retroactive on is if you use the HP increase for each level up (and maybe some others that work in a similar manner).

The health reason was the main reason I started over that way there are fewer times I need to invest in health and put the regular level ups elsewhere

I've been going for the ROLS the last few weeks and have gotten 0.
for the ROLS I'm at 2,700 small rock, 1,010 polished gem
for the ELyR I'm at 719 weak poison

I'm about ready to give up until the next update. Or maybe just move back up to Blackwater Mountian again.

I've been setting goals like getting onto the top 10 highscore, be able to one hit the Gargoyle Trainers and apprentices, get to 2,500 small rocks, get to 1,000 polished gems (from the gargoyle caves t&a), get 500 weak poisons (currently at 719), and to collect a ROLS.

I have compleated all these goals except the last and am sadly starting to play less and less. At this point the items are pretty much useless consittering how overpowered my player already is.

True, I spent so much time grinding for rare items, that I don't even need equipment to kill the hardest enemies in the game. Oh well, guess I'll just keep going, still need the RoL.
