    Default Don't you hate it?

    First of all this isn't rant or flaming thread. But for serious, why all lower level characters put themselves into higherlevel games and dungeons?

    It doesn't make sense because of...

    1. They slowdown
    2. Doesn't usually help group a lot
    3. They are way too weak into there and die a lot.

    Following pic isn't faked and too bad I didn't take more about conversations with him when he claimed that he usually won't die at sewers.

    As a founder, you should know that this problem has been curbed quite a bit in the past months. A level 1 used to be able to access the highest dungeon in the game before the change, so this is nothing imo. A 48 is just a bit low to be in sewers, at 50 with high level sets one should be ok but there is nothing significant at 48 that is worthy. As for the question why, well we all know the answer to that... for the lulz... I mean xp.

    I don't think I understand what you mean by they slowdown, like they slow the group down? Not really, most groups that I see with a low level are usually helping him learn, or passing him by. Their failure to help the group is based in part on the fact that they are weak in comparison to a toon who is potentially 8 levels higher than they are, but I've watched some low level mages who have heal maxed out play a significant role. As for dying a lot, well sewers are hard and can sometimes be complicated; I die in sewers mostly due to a slight lag spike or mistimed firegrate crossing as a 56 DEX bird so no one is immune (except bears).

    As for your initial question, hate is a strong word. It's quite easy to avoid the situation by either looking for another group, or waiting for the host to boot them. Don't forget that there is an end rush to try to get to 56 before it's too late so this tactic is all the rage, after the new content comes out this issue should die down a bit.

    I see your point at there.

    With slowdown I mean they slowdown time what's used for one dungeon, because of multiple revives / won't bring up so much power(tanking/dpsing/healing) as would happen if he get replaced with 55.

    And in my opinion hate is exact word since there is lower level content where they belong and they can bring their usefulness better out at there, not to "ruin" higher level games.

    Also I Mostly hate those who comes into higher level content, knows they can't do well there so they decide to follow 20m behind others and collect money/xp/drops.

    EDIT: anyone shouldn't take anything of this personally, I don't hate lower level players, just wondering why they join games where they have no possibility to survive.

    i dont like it when someone comes in a group and just sits in the beginning while everyone else is doing their job.
    why is it going to be too late soon to hit 56?

    56 ATM is the Elite cap. When the new campaign comes out the new elite cap will be 61 and the current crown of persistence will no longer be available.

    Meh, play with friends or host your own game. This problem has died down ever since the level requirement to access each dungeon has been finally implemented.

    I really haven't made friends ingame, I join random games from game list and do the job. and this problem haven't died because at this example 48 can join sewers and that's not enough to be enough useful on sewers.

    Adding people from the forums can solve that problem But I'd much rather have a Lv 48 in the party than a Lv 2 like before

    +1 gluttony!

    and not all low levels are useless....I let in low levels to my groups just to teach them and see how good of a player they are. Usually they are kinda bad so i teach them how to become better. If they are good, i might friend them and help them level up. but never would i boot for being low level.

    Did this person even mind that they died so much . I usually don't mind at the most 1 low level in a group as long as they at least try to help out the group. And if they're messing up a lot (ex mage running ahead of tanks). I tell them what they should do.

    As said on original post didn't took screenshot of conversation where he said he usually won't die at sewers at all. Also this is just one example whne there us many others go do same.

    I usually don't mind 1 sub-50 in group either. Sometimes they're not so great (die, stay back), so they're not getting friended.
    But most times, they're not so bad and know how to run perfectly fine.
