simple math.
they are reducing each vet level to require 850k exp instead of 1 million but adding 2 more ranks.
do the bloody math. used to be 14 million to get to v14. NOW with the new numbers, it will take (16 x 850k) 13.6million! oooh well would u look at that its 400kLESS to get to max now

*sigh* Want to have another try at this?19 -

You expected to play an MMO and use the same gear for the rest of the games life cycle? Lmao. You might as well find the door now and save your time and money.11 -

They don't increase the freaking level cap every few or so months, do they? No. Do you also know that was ZOS's Initial plan until the community voiced their opinion, strongly suggesting that we did not want or need more veteran ranks?0 -

Of course not, but posting that people should "stfu" on the basis that the xp impact may be minimal while ignoring the other effects? By an extension to an already unpopular system?
...definitely a case of needing to try again.

I get what you're saying. How many times are they going to raise max level in a year and some change though? This is the third time. I think what ticks me off the most is there's no reason to raise max level. They said it was to accommodate the addition of Craglorn but my vr7 nightblade could solo pretty much everything there.
That little bit of difference between vr14 and 16 will be pretty negligible besides itemization. Even then I doubt it's worth the response from the community. I don't think that content being too hard is a factor for this game but definitely content being too easy is one. 1 -
Tiitus✭✭✭✭400k Less?!?!.. LMFAO.. this is amazing! now i can finish the Hellish VR grind 2 hours sooner... oh wait they are adding 2 more levels seems it evens out and nothing has changed..Edited by Tiitus on July 3, 2015 3:17AM1 -

No but most were keeping an eye on the VR removal update to return to ESO so we could actually enjoy endgame.. instead we are greeted with 2 more vets lvls and are now much much further behind.. Alas i finally give up, cant speak for others, love ES for its lore and setting but apperently not the place for my mmo cravings.
400kless exp to reach max lvl wen the max lvl require 13.6 mil exp to "grind" and i mean literally grind is like a rain drop in an ocean, it hardly makes a dent... before you nerdrage and say "i did it in less than *insert random number* im pretty sure it was before they nerfed every viable exp spot.

✭I still have 3 1/2 zones of gold and half of Craglorn. Been saving the quest content for when I'm playing solo but been too busy PvPing for the last month or so to get to it. Have a feeling I could be VR 16 and still not finish gold.1 -

its ppl grinding mobs that are complaining no wonder it feels like it takes forever its got to be the singular most boring activity i could imagine doing in game.0 -
You do know they also said you will get 50% more XP from Veteran quests, 20% More XP from Craglorn and x2 XP from Public dungeons, wish people wouldn't complain about VR ranks that much, there not that bad.3 -
Iselin✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭If you're going to do the math, do it right: V1-V14 is 13 VR levels not 14 = 13,000,000 not 14,000,000
And with the new 850K per level, 15 levels makes it 12,750,000 or 250K less.2 -

Define "not that bad"? As bad as AIDS? No. But its still very lazy way to prolong playability and if Z. wants to add new ranks every few months then it will become more like any mmo out there, just with less character customization.0 -

If you read a lot of these threads you can tell who watched the live event and who didn't. My favorite line is the one where apparently zos are increasing the levels but not releasing any new content.

OzJohnD✭✭✭✭offensive post ... glad it was moderated
you assert that only "noobs" are complaining ... the arrogance is astoundingEveryone knows the phenomenon of trying to hold your breath underwater - how at first it's alright and you can handle it, and then as it gets closer and closer to the time when you must breathe, how urgent the need becomes, the lust and the hunger to breathe. And then the panic sets in when you begin to think that you won't be able to breathe - and finally, when you take in air and the anxiety subsides...that's what it's like to be a vampire and need blood.

Right. But does it make this system any better? Why having 2 overlapsing systems?0
