Are they a kind of trap which permits people to make an error in over-levelling which serves no purpose other than to permit someone on a forum to say 'l2p'?

The whole point is to go out and collect loot. Why would you not want to go around and explore the maps? You never know when or where a unique or really rare item is going to drop. For example, I ran a group doing Felshire runs, and they were just going from Church Dungeon to the Exit, the XP was sorta quick, but we lost out on a bunch of named monsters, chests, boulders, etc. The next run, someone suggested that we clear the map, and so we did, got a unique gold ring, someone else got a Multistrikes. The XP went much faster too, as there was less loading/wait time. I know random is random, but when you skip all the content, you really aren't giving yourself a chance to get anything random :P I turn over every rock and smash every barrel cheers to you!

It is written in simple English and yet... For some reason, the placing of each word next to another word... Is resulting in me being completely incapable of understanding a blithering word of it. Is it some kind of concession speech or is it further provocation?	Posted by Deleted on May 16, 2013, 4:27:29 AM

I was killing every mob and smashing every barrel on my first OB char. Unfortunately at level 50 when I had found a total of 2 alchs, 1 chaos and a couple other things, I went and read that there was a quantity penalty for being overleveled... The way I was playing, I was sometimes near 10 levels over the level cap, without farming. With all my new chars I stack run speed and skip vast sections of mobs and still struggle to not over level. I tend to hit 43 for example as I enter the first 41 area so that I don't get a penalty. I think a better solution would be increasing the level range where you are not penalised. Maybe 4 levels would be a bit more fair. Edit: Forgot to mention my first char died horribly in HC :( Last edited by Mordread#1431 on May 16, 2013, 7:11:54 AM	Posted by Mordread#1431 on May 16, 2013, 7:11:10 AM Quote this Post
Another fact is on Act 2 and Act 3 you have few location with the same monster level, by the way, you must run (always run) more than fight to kill the boss !! When you play in Cruel Difficulty, you can't permit yourself a big difference between your level and monster level, play alone begin to be risky ! Are you have more luck to drop nice item by level difficulty ? Share your experience, please !!!	Posted by DodHeimsGard512#2534 on May 16, 2013, 8:04:29 PM Quote this Post

Wasn't the forum full of "game is dead" some days ago? I guess he thought the same. :P @op: Probably the pace of xp is like that because races (short races classification would be more cramped) and alters (for those builds based on lvl 31 skills).
