Gramps for 150 was left out on purpose. Many players are against gramps leveling.

bio4 bbs are an excellent source of exp all the way through 175, as long as you play a class that is actually needed. if you don't, you're SOL.

Phase out Gramps all together and encourage people to play the game as it was meant to be played.

Got to be honest, with people comparing VIP time as being wasted because of HI TI's being 'hard', I feel that even though I personally have not used gramps for leveling 1 ~ 150, I think it spoils the hell out of people. I remember -_-ting bricks when I heard you could level to 99 via quests as it was. Be more happy with the multiple options to making a grinding game less grind-worthy.

They should at least program it so you can use VIP if you are under 150 or 50 job.

 

If you are 150< the option for base is removed vise versa.

 

If you are not vip you're sol'ed anyways.

No.

Yes it's a pain to grind when you don't get to level at bio4 but getting to 175 it's supposed to be an achievement not a gift, death to gramps!!!

 

There are bounty boards too and hopefully more 150+ friendly boards are coming soon-ish.

Yes let's limit the choices even further and screw GX class even further. Note the hint of sarcasm.

gramps has become pretty necessary for this game now, if you took it out the population would take a dive

 

the game's already been made so easy, what's another drop in the bucket?

yup, it'd be yet another of warp portal's band aid fixes for real issues they can't/won't address.

Technically your right, but you're also wrong at the same time. Make your own party if your not needed, & provide the giant fly wings. 3 RK's 1 Sorc, 1 Strings, 2 randle killers, 2 AB's, 1 gene. Thats all you really need. thats 10/12, with your unneeded clas it brings you to 11/12. Room for 1 more RK or another randle killer.

My shadow chaser is definitely not needed, she's still got 18 levels from bio's by doing it that way.

not everyone has hours to spend each night to lead and form a functional bio4 party from PUGs, which is why having some additional leveling options certainly doesn't hurt. that doesn't mean I'm advocating for gramps being available for 150+.

if you're hellbent on getting into a bio4 group and you don't play the necessary classes, your best bet is to join a guild that actually does them. too many variables when you have to deal with 11 random strangers. that's not even counting instances where people decide to deliberately be dicks and wipe the whole party for S&Gs

Making leveling bite-sized for players with low time should revolve around eden-group style boards. Hunt 30 monsters, get way more exp than 30 monsters is worth, cooldown until 6 AM the following morning.

 

That way people can pick a leveling spot, hunt as long as they have (maybe 30 mins to an hour), hand in that board, and plan to do the same the next day, and so on.

Not all players can level up to bio4 due to time consuming for recruiting, afking, an ab with mood swings so the party can't start and etc.. And one more thing some players reach 150 with eden equips and bio 4 is all about op gears that cause hundred millions which newbies like me can't afford. Instead of suggesting the impossible, suggest they add bounty boards in Rachel, CT Nightmare mode and even Glast heim NM.

I wasn't aware something that has been done by many people can be considered impossible.

your point is somewhat valid, as it does take a lot of time to find a party and get it going.

 

however, i don't feel like this is an issue because i like the fact that getting to 175 is hard. unless you're super competitive there isn't really anything in the game you have to get to level 175 for. you can't expect newbies to be able to breeze through the whole process so easily, getting max level should feel like an achievement. 

 

i'm all for having more leveling choices, but i don't think we should water it down just to cater for newbies.

"Max level should feel like an accomplishment"

Yeah and I'd rather it not feel like a chore and not a game~<3

Eden Gears for leveling up to 150? I don't buy it.

 

Eden gears are good for low TI and 1-99 PvE leveling, but by the start of Mid TI you should be working on other gears. If someone gets to 150 with just Eden Gears is either because they were carried or they used Prize Medals.

 

 

And there's content you can do way before reaching cap, but the mentality is: 'Reach level cap so you can SOLO everything' This attitude, coupled with other's mentality that the game really starts at 175 puts real stress in the players and makes leveling be seen as a chore. WoE? WoE has its own sets of problems and entry hazards.

 

You want boards? Then go pester ODA about them, but keep in mind that before Boards and before Gramps, people grinded their way to cap (and what is a BB if not an incentive for you to go grind?)

No to more gramps. I personally think expanding the bounty boards is the best way to go. Nightmare dungeons are the next logical choice.
