With all due respect, I don't think anyone should listen to your ideas if that is your attitude.
And level 0 against level 2-3 is fair for you ?
Leveling them cost a lost. And if you got "friends" at events, they can give you the weapons for free and you can level them fast. Simple.
Yes it's fair because you didn't upgrade. The difference between level 1 and level 2 is negligible with the randomness of duelling.
the main content in this game is the other players, if you chose to play solo, that is also on you. You accept the disadvantages of not having a team behind you.
Work ? More time spent ? Maybe "friends". Or multi accounts ? At every events, I see new players with low levels that join in different towns. They are lucky to get weapons; then give them to high "friends" and done. Weapons level +2, +3.
So don't complain if we get to level 250 fast.
Agreed, but we just have to move on and try to make the future brighter.
So the new level caps are the future. New jobs. Not new items every month. That is no future.
It's not easy , think about how many buffs you need to actually level up.
These are straight lies. Since cowgirl/vaquero's weapons (so the end of 2019) there were not better weapons introduced in terms of pure damage. All items introduced after cowgirl/vaquero's until Sarah Astor's were weaker in terms of damage. Some of them had better bonuses, but lower damage. And Sarah Astor's weapons have terrible bonus, I don't think people will use these weapons. What you are saying it was true for 2 years from 2017 when they introduced Bavarian platter (which was free) and Penn's weapons with 1 damage per lvl (instead of 0.9 like we used to had to years) until 2019 when they introduces vaquero's/cowgirl's weapons with 10-25 flat damage and 1.25 dmg x lvl. In 2018 they introduced henry hooker's weapons with 1-10 flat damage (like all weapons from 2014 until then) but with 1.1 dmg x lvl. This items were introduced at Easter Event. Few months later they added Mountain Farmer's weapons with even higher damage and also better bonuses, 10-20 flat damage and 1.2 dmg x lvl and also the Shepherd weapons which were also free, like Bavarian ones. A stupid thing they did here was to offer 2 sets for free, one for female characters and one for male characters. With considerably fewer female characters in the game, those items were extremely cheap, leading to a discrepancy between male and female item upgrades. After these items with higher and higher damage they stopped a bit in 2019, adding Highlander's weapons with the same damage as Mountain farmers, but with a different bonus. It was a good thing to do. At the end of 2019 they introduced Cowgirl/Vaquero's weapons which were pretty rare back then and they also didn't dropped from Christmas bags, so I somehow understand the slightly better damage: 10-20 flat damage and 1.25 dmg x lvl. After these weapons, all others newer one had worst damage. Most of them had different or event better bonus in terms of skills, but lower damage. They even dropped the damage by a lot for Bounty Hunter's weapons. Damage is not everything. I do have plenty of +3 weapons and even a +4 vaquero's weapon (the one with the highest damage in the game excluding the newer one, Sarah Astor's with very bad bonus) and i still use some +2 weapoins from time to time, like Jaguar's. Vaquero's +1 has better damage than Jaguar's +2 (and i have vaquero +4) and still use Jaguar's knife sometimes, because damage is not everything. If you want to be a good dueller you need a lot of items in order to combine them to counter your opponent build. I only buy items when they are cheap. First days after they become auctionable or at Christmas event. I don't always buy from the market, i try to find cheaper items and if they are cheap enough at the market I never buy everything, leaving the market empty, because in this way you make extremely expensive items appear.
Since you can also bring in damage expansion also EP or? So also Fort battles would make more sense?
