Tips to level up quickly? I've been playing for about 2 weeks and am at only level 23. The questing gets kinda stale.

If you have a lot of labor to burn:

-Use a vocation tonic

-craft a bunch of easy crap like iron ingots/fishing hooks(also gets your proficiency up

- go afk for an hour while its crafting

-come back with 2-3 levels gained.

You guys should join my friends guild on Calleil, it's called the Ragged flagon and it's got some very nice and helpful people in it, and I'd love it if we could get it big enough to become an empire.

Well, after getting banned from archeage for no reason, I'm still waiting to be able to play again. Kinda pissed my subscription days are being wasted and im getting nowhere with their system. I am just wanting to know what caused me to get banned... I think this marks over 2 weeks I haven't been able to play now.

So after like 1000+ gold, lots of tears, and almost ragequitting, I finally got my magnificent lightning bow to Unique rarity. Never again will I regrade past heroic, its too painful QQ

Talon · 10-16-2014

I would have enjoyed this so much more had the combat, armor, PvE and UI not been so obscenely unappealing to me. Such a great concept, but executed so poorly for me.

Skill · 10-17-2014

I agree Talon. The lack of decent PVE, the outdated combat, and the horrible gearing system all ruined the game for me.

Infernus Lapse · 10-21-2014

1) The gearing system is fine?

2) the combat is kinda outdated, but it still works.

3) the combat shouldn't be the only determining factor of the game, combat is only half of the battle in Archeage. There's building structures, blacksmithing, trading, shipbuilding, alchemy, etc.

If you guys don't like the game, what could make it better?

-Instead of only being able to being able to build in predetermined zones, you should be able to build anywhere except on roads/npcs/towns/objects/quest/dungeon entrances/ mob spawn zones. This would solve the land issue as there's so much pointless open space thats unused.

-The systems should be better designed to prevent hacking. As it stands there's very little packet verification on the server level, which allows some crazy hacks to work.

-Crafted gear needs to be a bit better at lower tiers to compete with Hasla weapons/quest gear. Dungeons also need more of a purpose(should drop crafting ingredients to give them purpose)

yeah, really disappointed with the "open world housing", such a joke. also hate how drops and credit from mobs and quests are awarded to the person that gets the first hit. should have been more like GW2 imo, they had the PvE done pretty damn well.

all of the selling points of the game turned out to be **** for me and it was just another MMO.

Revelry things going to be "just another MMO" until someone pretty much copies skyrim and WoW into a love child MMO that can run on a toaster oven.

The problem I honestly see people having is that they're looking at stats and relying on reviews and the design to carry their entertainment, when really it takes imagination, like when the first RPG games came out. You can't just look at it and see the world, you need to put some imagination in there yourself and go with it.

Yeah except the world is so damn awful. Lore is terrible. World design is bland. Cities feel dead. Everything is below average.

I personally disagree, I thought the world design felt pretty interesting. The lore had a lot of potential, but its not properly implemented into the game.
