I actually had fun w/ the new elixirs, but I'm pretty sure I won't be using them at all at 5plat each.
I wasn't interested in storming the leaderboards. I just thought it was cool for farming, which usually is boring when all you get is waiting for the really, really rare item.
Maybe limit them to a certain number of times of usage per day? or you can buy for 1plat like 5 times, then it's 5plat? Though then everyone will complain how they didn't know and want refunds...
I've seen ignorant players before. They seem to be a bit more prevalent where there's lots of powerleveling, ie. Mynas gens, 4x elixirs.
I'm not sure the new elixirs have anything to do with them. I've seen people pretty much start a new character, think PL is a racing game. Within 5 minutes, they have a list of the 'courses' they have to run over and over to get to max level. Since there's only something like 5 courses they need to learn, there's not much exploration going on.
Culprits? Mainly other players I think. You can sit around Forest Haven and Dark Forest and Balefort and hear players tell one another where to go for xp. Almost none of it has to do with exploration.
Solution? Maybe xp for completing levels. Or can't enter one area w/o completing the previous area. Stuff like that, that most players don't like and would/may make them go to other games that are more mindless. So I'm not sure there's really a viable solution for 'exploration' games such as this one. Most people just are not explorers, unless the alternative is getting their teeth pulled.
