    If maps were enjoyable with stuff worth farming for it would be fine and not just 4x plasma.

    Also mobs are way to over powered i literally cannot even run the map with a full party 3x combos let alone 4x combos. I even saw pally mages being 1 hit yesterday. I guess we all just need to get used it all.

    They will fix the bugs this week hopefully, not many people will touch the campaign until they are fixed, half of the people are just going to plasma or mega maze with 4x and capping there.

    It is not. The game has been stagnant with people bored. This is what we asked for. Something to do. Some new content. When people rush to cap, then they get bored and quit. This is a truly elite grind and will at least make playing less pointless over the next little while. It if was 100k, people would be capping the first day and within a week, the community would be complaining about nothing to do.

    I like 300k xp it will take those who dont spend alot on plat 40-60 hours to cap depending on if they depend on 3x combos from blessing (im one of them) I just want mobs to be nerfed because there very op atm but other then that im ready to get my grind on.

    Yeah, I've always said, take away the Anywhere XP elixir for the end game. THese people just run the low level maps all day. Pretty sad.

    This is a super elite level guys... I didnt try new dungeon but i've heard mobs are op. So the problem comes from mobs, not exp amount, as i said its ELITE so its for "hardcore" gamers

    I'm glad STS put out a new cap, but I think 300k XP is excessive for several reasons.

    1. It has a very low cost to reward ratio compared to the rest of the game. For example, BSM expansion added 5 levels and was about 150k from 71 to 76. So players did 150k of "work" and got 5 level raises of stats. This cap requires twice the work but only gives a single level raise, so 1/5th the reward.

    2. It is way more work for the same reward with respect to rings. One big thing that was touted about this release is it would allow for new players to "catch up" with old players on elite rings. However, a player who joins today has to earn 400k xp for his two caps for 2-piece ring compared to only 200k for old players. This is a huge penalty to have to pay, especially considering it isn't the new players' fault that STS took a year and a half off from putting out caps.

    3. It adds no particular value to the game. Doing 100k caps was already tedious and mostly ignored by all but plat users. Having to slog through 300k is pretty much impossible unless you use tons of plat to speed it up. For example, I played for an afternoon with no boosts on and got about 1k XP running the various new maps. This means it would take nearly a year to finally cap, and that's assuming playing for the same 4 or so hours every day never taking a day off. The original 100k caps were at least possible, if boring, to do without plat in a reasonable time. This 300k is a plat-only undertaking, leaving those without that kind of money (i.e. most of PL) out.

    I think the requirement of 300k is quite a lot, especially for those who don't buy/get free plat. I think I agree with you, until there is a mob nerf or some change in the amount of damage the mobs do, I'll be doing Dragons Nest.

    This new cap is the same as many things in life: a compromise. A company not wanting to spend too much money on an older game, but at the same time trying to address some of the demands of their customers.

    300k is a lot of XP, but regardless of whether it was higher or lower, STS could never hope to satisfy everyone, so they made a decision to try and make most happy. Also, there will always be people who want to 'be first'. That's life, too.

    My advice, for what it's worth... play PL because you like it and have fun, not because of pressure to get this or that first. Hey, make new friends and be grateful that a company is still listening over 4 years after the release of the game.

    Alternatively, no one is forcing anyone to stay.

    I'm a full dex bird with the purple dex armor and green helm and elite bow, and I don't get one hit because I know how to kite. With a bear, pally, or rhino, they run in first, and I kite, and I don't have a problem staying alive. Too many int mages or birds think they can run in and own the map for themselves but that's not the case.
