Is 100k really elite?

[Mage till the end]

Think about it. If you logged on 5 minutes a day for you x3 combo you might be able to get the elite cap. You would get 2k here 3k there but in the 5 months bsm has been out you could get the elite cap plying maybe 10 minutes a day.

This begs the question, is 100k xp really elite? My opinion is to raise the elite lvl cap xp requirements. 150k maybe even 200k. This qualifies as elite. I mean with enable xp gain and thrashers, getting 100k xp not very elite. Can be done in one night.

Purpose of this thread? Make 80-81 elite. Not 100k personally I would like to see 200k.

My 2 cents

[Wendellism]

I'm sure they might raise the exp required for the next expansion, probably about 150k at most.

Also judging by your opening post, I think you must have used thrasher to farm your way up. That is the main disadvantage of people that do not take their time to cap and simply rush for it. Plus many players that can't buy too much platinum are already struggling with the 100k exp bar as it is. So... I guess for now it stays.

[Blind]

Rofl ok, let's add another 100k and have everyone buy 2x the ammount of plat.

Think with your head man. People who buy plat will still reach it within 1-2 days.

Those who don't buy plat at all won't be able to reach their goal now that dungeons are that hard and almost everyone uses thrashers.

[Xbuddyjosh]

For me, 100k is very elite bcuz I don't buy plat, so I can't grind with thrashers and week long 2x... Think about how many people don't like to buy/spend plat on elixirs... To them 100k is elite! (Myself included). If u don't think 100k is elite, then just lvl pure - it will take u forever, which to me seems to be your definition of elite. Just make a vow to yourself to lvl pure, and 100k will be plenty elite.

My point was that you could get 100k in one night. Elite cap should be harder than that

[ThePvpTwink]

For me 100k xp is already a lot since I only use daily blessings, daily elixers, and 1.5 xp gold bought elixers.....took me like 15 hours on double xp weekend to get 25k xp ._.

Not all of us are rich or old enough to get so much plat and cap, I myself included.

[Zeus]

If you level a character from 1-75 & then try L76, yes, it is very elite.

Veterans do not experience the challenge new players go through in order to just reach end-game. Well, technically speaking they have, but it was a long time ago & it wasn't all at once.

[Jcyee]

The difference in the number of players that rush to the cap in the first few weeks and those that take there time and don't spend hundreds of plat is big. I'm sure it's safe to assume that the majority of players would not like to see a 200K xp elite cap.

[Burningdex]

Well thats just IF we get an 81 cap . To be honest AL WILL get another b4 us

[Iphoneington]

I agree with Apollo

[Mage till the end]

Everyone here has represented valid positions. But think some have missed the point of the thread. Some have not. The point is that it should take longer to reach the elite cap than it does now. I'm talking 75-76, not 1-76

Im already struggling from 74-75 14k XP, let alone 200k xp.

No, it shouldn't. Each cap, a generation of newcomers is brought forth. Do you really think they will stay if they have to grind so much XP & then an additional 200k XP just to remain competitive in the game?

I'm sorry, but that just makes no sense whatsoever. Yes, you bring up a valid point for those that already capped last cap and are simply updating their character to the next cap - the grind isn't very elite to them. That's the way it is for end-gamers.

Have you played WoW? (Not that I have, but my friend has and I know enough about it.) But every time there's a new cap increase, the people already at the previous cap reach the new cap relatively quickly. It's just the way things are.

[Extreme]

Lol it took me 2-3 weeks bro, without thrasher and it was Really really hard grinding Valley, Magma & Nest, maybe for you it isn't elite but c'mon Think about person who isn't as rich U, Maybe you could Buy plat Everyday?Everyweek? But not all people are like you..

[Waug]

If you could realise gaining xp without plats is real pain!!!

[Swimmingstar]

Only if you spend 10 hours on thrashers.

My 2 cents

Racking up xp every day isn't elite no matter how much the price tag is. Let's see something that's really and truly elite like the newest Star Legends campaign where you can't use stims. Just my 2 cents ;)

[Suentous PO]

Changing fundamentals just causes complaints, how about this as an alternative to your suggestion.
A new achievement title for those who grind without plat elixirs?
I'd do it just to have "like a baws" or something funny.

[CrimsonTider]

My how soon we forget Sewers, PRE-elixir.

[Multibird]

Think about the ppl that are not able to buy plat. Not every cap is long like fang or bsm, some are relatively small like nuris. 200k, not many ppl will be happy .-

[razerfingers]

Lol mission server reset ;) show lixir toons how its done! But i did use gold emixirs from 48-50 during 50 cap

Sent using blood on a bathroom wall.

[Terententen]

Yeah, I love the idea of a 500k xp cap. Lets really stick it to everyone. Make everyone spend loads of money on plat to become "elite" or make it entirely nauseating to become elite the good ol' fashioned way. That'll teach everyone to have fun playing a game. :/

I can't wait for the new cap despite the fact that the thought of capping another toon makes me entirely queasy. As a non thrasher buyer, that last 10k grind from 90-100k is punishment enough.

Imagine if they left the cap at balefort sewers, and called it ELITE! ;) imagine how many threads 'Mage till the end' would be making O.o

Edit: awww darn it, crimson beat me to getting a thanks for mentioning 'sewers' :( no thx for me i guess.

[Suentous PO]

They can't remember what they weren't around to experience.

[Cavoc]

Yes 100k is elite. Too elite. Lets make it 50k instead

[XghostzX]

Please, don't.

I see the point you're trying to make, but I already hate the 100k cap... I know I do it relatively fast, but I still hate it. All that means is more boredom, more time, more $$$ for plat. Makes no sense... the only elite thing about it is that you're proving you have more time and money on your hands.

[bramer]

Um, just a random question, but since Mage Till the end kinda brought it up, how long do you think it would take to get to 76 using ONLY daily 3x combo and only running for 5 minutes a day?

In Mega Maze, since you get about 500 xp per run (through my experiences), 200 days.

For everyone posting, disagree with the idea if you want. You're definitely free to do that.

He did have a very valid point, so don't mock the man.

[Frioadr]

I don't think PL will do this, as they may lose some of their players with people getting bored of grinding it out. Trust me PvE is fun, but doing it every day for 5 months? I don't think so.

[CrimsonTider]

Stop being rational! 'Tis not allowed in thy forums. Away with thee!

Who is "we"? (See what I'm sayin?)

[CrimsonTider]

Who is "we"? (See what I'm sayin?)

"We" is a pronoun I used in place of "the community." I consider myself a member of this community, and since the statement as generalized, the proper pronoun was used.

[Sryyoulose]

Just want to point this out, it takes 200k xp to reach elite cap. Nuff said.

Fixed ;)

[McBain]

There's no way anyone can get from 75-76 in one night. Unless, of course, you're running some low level map like Mega Maze using enable xp elixirs. If you really want to make it more elite, don't increase the xp needed to cap, but get rid of the enable xp elixir.

[Swords]

How about each cap is 100k but when 100 cap comes out maybe they should raise it, but until then.... 100k xp

[Bebsi]

My how soon we forget Sewers, PRE-elixir.

Well, I'm sorry but as an COP owner from the start (not bought) I have to remind u that there were elixirs in Sewer days...
But no thrasher ^_^

Back then ppl would get 75-150xp per run? Can't remember and nobody would do magic castle at all. Was there even 'xp everywhere' elixir?

Jeez, good old times. Gurgox hammer ftw ^_^

[Mage till the end]

Not a bad idea. Can't wait till 100lvl cap. Going to be a blast. Just imagine the competition and money spent to be first to 100

[Caiahar]

Second. Justg is already 100

[Phoenixking]

Second. Justg is already 100
He'd probably level up 100 more. Doesn't deserve to be same level as everybody he is too good for that. 200 ftw

[MightyMicah]

I don't think you saw what I was sayin' ;)

The "we" you speak of doesn't exist. There's only a select few people who were even here during sewers. "We" as in the community, cannot forget something "we" as a community never participated in. Make sense?

Yeah, most of the people here haven't experienced that so it can't even be used as a generalized term

You would be surprised at how many on the forums were here during Sewers. Many have new alt accounts, some just read and don't post. So actually, it can be generalized.

It's like in youtube, if you don't participate in the community you aren't part of the community, how could you include people who don't contribute? It doesn't make sense to count them for something only mostly new players are asking.

I highly disagree with this. Just because someone doesn't contribute does not mean they are not part of the community. I would venture to say only around 3-5% of this community have truly "contributed" to PL over the past 3 years with guides, research, etc. Tons of players play who do not use the forums, but do a lot in game to "contribute." Anyone who plays this game is a part of the community. No debating that.

Difference between game and forums though

100k enough, some players have 5 character classes 200 * 5 = 1,000,000 XP

This^^^^ sewers was the only true elite cap. While plat elixirs were around few used and we didn't have end game players farming xp in magic castle. IMO there is nothing elite about killing level 15 mobs with stacked xp pots on a level 70 toon. But hey as I don't play pl I'm all for the next elite cap there being 1,000,000 with some super awesome prize if you do it in a week.
