Advancement Curve Changes for Level 56

[Fyrce]

OMG, sounds great.

I think level 56 is for all those who cap in like an hour :P and then go farm but are a bit disappointed because they're killing a lot but no xp. Now they can get xp for quite a while it looks like -- maybe 2 more hours? JK.

OMG, I guess I should decide whether I'm leveling up any toons soon, eh? But I can't decide! LOL.
PM me with where you're parking your toons w/ the new level caps. Maybe have one at level 46? or maybe lower, like 41? Help! :P

I see. Its only the damage combos that actually get the "COMBO" word to pop out then right?

Yeah actually I'm not sure. I feel like terror (a debuff combo) produces the "combo" text as well (doesn't it?), so it's a bit confusing...

[Kingofhurtz]

Do not want.

Absolutely DETEST leveling, but whatever.

Agreed, I hate leveling. No offense :P

[Phoenixking]

I love it I know I'm getting new items any what's point if you don't play to get ready to try to get ready to get items

[Norbert]

Wait it's 84k xp from lvl 55 to 56 for the Crown? Does that mean if you lvl up to 56 when 61 is the new cap, it will take less xp to get there?
Just trying to understand the logic behind all this.

He mentioned that they store your current level and the percent to the next level in the database, so I kind of doubt it. E.g., you hit 56 and your db entry looks like this:

56, 0

Meaning you're at level 56 and 0 percent of the way to 57 (since you stop getting xp as soon as you hit 56). Once they release levels up through 61, your 84k xp is going to go away (you don't really have it after all, just a level and percent to next level) -- level 57 will be something like 9000 xp.

[Kossi]

i think 56 is the cap forever.

i think 56 is the cap forever.

Nah, ALS did mention 61. Maybe 61 is after all the rumors :P

[Echelong]

I like this cap. Yes it was to fast on some levels.

[THEHOGY]

how will we get elite item for lv 56... drop or buy or idk

[FluffNStuff]

This is mad coo.

I was talking about people who aren't lvl 56 before the next level cap -- would it require less xp to get to lvl 56 for them? Since they don't get the crown at that point.

Or are all lvls after 56 gonna require 85k+? yikes.

[Phoenixking]

will u still gain the plus one skill attribute and plus 5 attribute to spend on int,str,dex for lvling to 56?

Yes you will it's level 56! That means it's a level were you get stuff

The devs said they mapped it out to 100 from the start, and that it didn't necessarily have to stop there...

If you get there before cap you can use the new crown but once new cap comes out it won't drop anymore and will be for 61 but you can use the ones you get and sell it for alot of money

[Echelong]

I just hope the item you can buy at 56 is worth it and not a crapy item or another skull helm. Maybe a pirate hat.

[Lesrider]

Sigh. No one's understanding/answering my question. I'll just wait and see if a dev decides to answer.

[BeefyMeat]

I get your question Les. Honestly, it's a wait and see. I see this as a way to keep people busy until 1.8 or a maor 1.7.whatever update.

[asommers]

When the subsequent campaign is released to raise the level cap to 60 [er, 61], level 55 to 56 will go from requiring 82000 xp to 8200 xp. We just decided to create the elite level cap to allow users to obtain and wear the Crown of Persistence. Also, the Level 56 Crown of Persistence will no longer be an obtainable item.

Lesrider I think this is the answer you have been looking for. That gap will be normalized once another expansion comes.

Further content expansions will normalize the required xp between 55 to 56 using the new curve and have another spike at the last level + 1.

Let us know what you think!

Ok that's what I thought. Thanks for clarifying!
