Boosting in default begins

Alrighty then, I don't see anything wrong at all with having a high level person help you get wherever the hell you two feel like going.

It's all part of the game, for some people the fun of the game is trying to get there as fast as possible.

Isn't this something that people have always done in ever ARPG?

I never ever thought of it as a problem before. Just a thing.
Usually its one person. Not two. The reason its problem,IMHO, is because not everyone can do it or knows how to do it.

In regular leagues I don't care that much, but in races its a different story.
But.. in races you all start on the same playing level

If a high level guy is going to waste his time helping a newbie get there then he is losing his place in the race

and the tortious.. tortus.. fucking turtle.. beats the hare.

I know what you mean and seeing as they made this league a race then they should do something about it.

Easiest way would be to put a party level cap of say 5 levels lower than highest level.

Would solve the problems or they can simply go into the details of who has these characters and delete them back to 0.

This would be fair.

Just seems that at the minute GGG(sorry to say it) Don't really care as this has been mentioned before.

I know they are busy getting rest of game ready but this needs to be ironed out. Failing that then let everyone know how to do it tis only fair after all.

Put everyone on an even keel so to speak.
Its only money. May as well spend it here.

Buy beta.

Please Do Not PM me if you have no sense of humour as to what i say on forums.
Ya I guess many people have no idea what we are talking about and think it's just a high lvl person helping out a lower lvl person. There's no way to explain this for you guy without just explaining how to do it.

Long story short, I really hope they address/fix this soon. It's going to get more popular in races to come as everyone will see it as the only way to win. On top of that once in OB, it will be much easier to do.

Probably best if it is not revealed. Just saying.


Why? As with most exploits or questionable practices the more people that abuse it the quicker it will be fixed, if only a couple of people are multiboxing and it carries on like that then they are gonna be winning all the races from here to eternity.

The high level one is the one being boosted. The lowbie is the same person, different account. It exists only to boost the xp and loot gain of the higher level character.

But then 2 friends, IRL possibly, where one is a 66 the other 60 couldn't.play together. That's the issue with level differences.

EDIT: Further, it will be incredibly hard to "fix". I've made this statement before and ill say it again, once OB comes, I will have 6 accounts to do this very same thing in normal play. That's a 250% IIQ boost.

there are 3 very detailed posts on the issue. One before the last race, one during then the end of the race post itself is mostly talking about how a few people used this method, one going from 10th place to 2nd.
