I personally have no issues with bots and see them as a great addittion to any server espically on new servers just starting out since most don't have the population to support not having them.
Now if you server had a large enough player base on at all time's of the day/night or specially designed to be soloable then sure not having them would be fine. Now back on topic i look forward to giving your server a try once i get some free time and good luck to you so far it look's like your off to a good start. |
without mobs , it would take 10x as long as to kill mobs , already with bots the xp is slow + long fights
|
I apologize about the current bugs on the server and are working very hard on eliminating them. Thank you for all of your testing because it's going to make Varlyndria into a better server over time.
The next update for Varlyndria will hopefully be in a week or two and it's going to feature an event that should bring players together and weapon quests for all of the paths that will expand and balance everything even more than now. The level cap will also raise to 25 in this update. Thank you once again for your patience, testing and help with the server. |

Attempting to bring the server back up in a different location. Please try to log in.

Drak, I love my class/specialization, and I love the server, but I don't love how long it takes to level up :( any chance this will be tweaked over the next couple of updates?
|
There is nothing wrong with the delay in leveling up. If you want faster go elsewhere or make your own.
Just because you cannot reach lvl 20 within 30 mins or even a few hours does not mean anything is wrong. |
With LotD running I got to level 12 in 4 hours. That is pretty fast if you think about it. Plus Drak is putting in custom quests items and classes. Why would you want to fly through all of that? The leveling speed is ment to be slower so you can enjoy the game. Also, this is ALPHA stage, not even BETA. But, as far as I know, Drak is keeping the exp where it is. Do not go anywhere else, stay on Varlyndria but just enjoy the game and become part of our GROWING community :D

One thing I noticed with the bots. My tank bot wasn't holding aggro and my cleric was getting it all. Then I discovered #bot taunt on and it works good now. You do have to use the command every time you zone.
