SRO Is a Powerlevel Game?

[CuteCloud]

If we forget all the bots and spammers and other scum, I'd rather call SRO a grind fest. If you're willing to spend time in the game, everyone can get to the cap legit, without powerlevel.

But nowadays everyone wanna be cool leet lvl 80, but they don't want to do anything for it, and thus they start botting and getting powerleveled and shit.

Of course everyone wants the last degree and cool looking weapons, but what's the fun of botting/getting plvled to get it? I wouldn't be as happy. I really looked forward to my 8D pro set and my new blade, and of course it took a while to get it, but in the end I was really happy with it.

Same for the character level. I'm not lvl 80 and I won't be in a while, but when I'm out for pvp, I'm proud of my character and I don't see why I should be embarrassed for not being 80 while I'm legit.

+1 your so right !

Nothing gets me more excited than when I am flipping through party matching pages to find a lvl 80 nuker taxi at penons for 100k/hr.

When I wake up in the morning and still see I'm in the party gaining experience I jump up and down with joy and eye watering pride.

When that party giant is in a secluded area I nearly orgasm over the 120k exp I am about to leech all over me and my pets body. I nearly sweat over all the hardwork me and my horse had to endure throughout the hour I gained 600-800 sp

When im done powerleveling to 70 I will BEAM with glory and undefying power and absolute authority. Everyone in my path will fall to me with little to no effort because I will be fully farmed.






This is a joke

Lvl 70?

Lol, that's still weak to most capped players.

Powerlvling is here to stay. The game is geared toward it and nothing will change. But those people that only get powerlvled will suck in pvp and pve whenever they try because they won't know the skills/weapons well enough.

Now I hate powerleveling alot, but the odds of someone getting powerleveled and not knowing there skills is slim to none. Honestly if you pick anything in this game most if not all the skills are self explanatory and there are countless guides to tell you exactly what to get/do and such so If you suck with your character then this isnt the game for you

mmh really? most of the people who pay for power-levelling are lazy noobs, they don't care or don't even know any guides, they just "take a build cuz it looks cool" or they simply go with the flow and take the one that dominates in PvP at the moment.

Hundreds of time i have seen power-levelled noobs in my party doing whatever they wanted, i saw Wizards who would run off and solo normal mobs while the rest of the party was stuck killing party giants, Bards who would attack instead of buffing, Rogues who were so cocky about their characters that they would try to solo a party mob 5-6 levels higher and i even met a cleric who would sit and watch us fight all by ourselves, when i asked him to start helping he answered: "i don't heal, i only res".

Now don't go telling me these people know how to use their character/skills.

Most players who botted or got powerleveled to cap level, does not know how to play silkroad. Be it pvp, pve, gathering and managing resources, party play, teamwork, communication, jobbing, alchemy, or just generally having fun. They're the ones most likely to sell chars, move to a new server, or leave the game completely.

If you play the game as to how it should be played, you'll get more satisfaction out of it. Try playing any game with cheat mode on, see how long you have fun playing it.

Or maybe like to have 6 different builds at same time to chose what to play
Game starts at the cap now, on old servers, have to face it.

ps.:

I started as aege opened, played chinese character, b4 euro opened went
to ksro, learned how to play them, ksro was team play all the way with 8ppl party,
was fun. But back now in isro who wants to hand grind an euro ...
Plevel all the way, and when my wiz at the cap it will plevel all my other chars, faster then chinese could.

Well, when someone starts a character and finds out a higher lvl can easily lvl you up, who wouldn't wanna take it, everyone wants to be higher faster~

Bot, powerlvl, or play.

New triangular conflict in sro lol.





Powerlvlign isn't a bad thing though, only when its from those who already botted.

LOL but DJ bots are the ones generally doing the powerleveling. So it is not so much a triangular conflict system as it is a linear one.

Yet another reason I like perfect world over SRO lol.

I used to think that way too. Over 2 years of thinking like that. Never made it true. They really don't need to know how to play. They will have better gear and resources due to 24/7 play and they outnumber legits like 9 to 1. Sure 1v1 you can own several of them and make them look silly. But when the other 8 show up you are gonna get your ass handed to you no matter what. Sro is a frustration to play. There is no real satisfaction to be gained.
