I don't see why ppl are ragging on the guy cause he thinks things get harder after 35 cause they do.....When Euro came out i was ona roll and was up there like one of the fastest ppl to lvl 30+ and after that between finding a party and finding time leveling just took more effort....

Don't say i don't know hard grinding either cause i handgrinded a Blader to lvl 55 on olympus at the height of the Bot problem with a 9 lvl gap from 52-55 WITHOUT SOS...you try farming with a blader trying to kill hashes or penons without the 51 combos and no sos surround by nuker bots


I think that into the later 3X it separates ppl. Some will breeze through it others will succumb to the harsh lvling but remember not everyone has TONS of free time and get money for a GT/PT from our parents...some of us have to balance work and college and our free time....you can play WoW and do well and balance all those things but to keep up on the SRO grindfest i don't think you can balance all of them....unless you bot :roll:

Its been hard to level up in MMORPGs since the days of Everquest. If you think getting to level 35 is hard, then MMORPGs are not for you. Korean based MMORPGs have always been slightly tougher than the norm. Just because a few games like WoW, GW, Diablo, etc. broke the traditional leveling format, that doesn't mean you can justify botting in the rest of the genre because of this. No one says you have to reach xxx level in xxx amount of days, months, years, etc. Keep playing at your own place. If you think MMORPGs are time consuming, great. Thats what their suppose to do.

I remember when I was level 38. I didn't really care about leveling up. I had fun hunting TG with my guild, cape fights, jobbing, etc. Not everyone you go up against in game is going to a capped sos player. Just play to have fun.

Some people say they bot so the can reach the the cap, get fully farmed, and "beat the game." Well, have fun trying to "beat the game" that never ends. Thats the reason why botters bot, sell their accounts at the cap, and quit the game at the cap. Their missing the point of the game.

+1 i can't stand people that are telling me im lvling slow because i know that i just dont care enough about getting to lvl 80 stay online all day long the most i have ever played in one day was probably a little under 4 hours and on average i play less than 2 hours a day but i still got lvl 71 :roll:

those using bots or playing 6+ hours a day are not enjoying silkroad as the makers intended

Everyone have a different threshold for how much grinding they think is too much.

Most people usually started botting around level 50-60, but there some people I know that used to be legit and botting in the mid 70s because it was too much for them, and there are people that started botting in their level 20s because they think it's too slow.

True you have a point.

I have a friend (Not gonna name him) who is now lvl. 80 and he told me he started botting at lvl. 16! He said the game was boring and he was gonna quit. I also know other people who started botting in their 40's and most people tend to bot at lvl. 60+

Why would you quit the 7x one? If I saw it sucked I would have stopped WAAAAAAAAAAAY before.

lol botting is pointless

games are ment to be played
you cant "beat" an mmo

games are for entertainment

if you have to bot to play, then you have problems.

you should just be content playing.
or do what im gonna do once islam comes out.

make a jihadist with claws, pwrlvl to lvl 70, then lvl to 100
then job/siege/guild warz and all that shiz.

just play the game, like ive been on lvl 32 with my euro for a week.
and its not cause i cant find a pt, its just i start pvping (or should i say stealthing then shanking) and cant stop.

if your having a hard tim eon lvl 35, its not a big deal.

just gold farm, get friends and family to play, or if your the type that keeps staring at that exp bar press F-12

or do what i do

TAKE A 2 MONTH BREAK
DONT PLAY ANY GAMES AT ALL!
AND AT THE END OF YOUR BREAK LOOK AT THE COOLEST SRO VIDS YOU CAN FIND.

THEN LOG IN, AND OMG suddenly lvling doesnt faze you anymore.

its almost like lvling isnt a big deal, as if all that former time of quick lvling has been wiped away, and its like starting from lvl 1.

its refreshing.
its like converting to buddhism from a outdated monotheistic egocentric duelist religion, just feel the pwr and let it flow :)

and if my advice is crud then do this,
find some1 any1 that will pwrlvl you for free, and go for it

no..botting does have a "point"..the "point" is to carry own with regular life while building strong characters without having to deal with

1.lag
2.annoying players
3.noobish people
4.getting fat from sitting at comp 12+ hours a day :P


yea, there is a point

If you dislike the game so much uninstall the game then. Games are ment to be played not bot.

No matter what botters can say to justify themself, games ARE ment to be played not botted

Chicksboy,

Just do it at your own pace. no one said you had to be lvl 80 next week. If you re bored try trading (while you still can) or PVP or hunting for uniques( wich are probably KS by some HL botting low-life)
