Veteran Rank issue. To much? or just unfunn?

Hey all I really never make post in game forums ever...;]
Anyways I felt the need to make a post due to many of my guild mates feeling the same way...
As it stands the average players is probably around level 25-45 five or take...
The main point of the thead is about having to level from veteran rank 1 to veteran rank 10...
As someone who played a hand full of mmo's at launch I usually don't have a problem raching max level in a timely manner and usually enjoy it as I don't make many alts...
What is really driving me and others away from the game is the need to grind/ requests all the way to V10...this feels like a super cheesy grind for such a large mmo...
The other thing is PvP/AvA is huge for me and the fact that V10's etc are dominating in ava is very lame and needs to be addressed....
IMO V10 shouldn't even be out yet and feels like it was rushed and released just for the folks who grinded or exploited to higher levels very quickly....
You guys are really killing a good thing here and turning a lot of folks off with this quests grind for veteran ranks...its feeling like a job/chore not a game....
The current leveling setup makes it very difficult for anyone in the future to jump into the game and be able to run endgame or ava content within a timely manner without having to spend months grinding quests on their days off....really...this is game/mmo not a secondary job....

Habu✭Not to sound harsh, but I disagree. I feel that the game is broken if someone can get to max level in 2 weeks. You should not be called a Veteran, especially a max level Veteran after only a few weeks of the game being released. Sorry, just my opinion.1

JexTex✭✭lol you missed the point...its not about being veteran that's whats broken....the veteran rank stuff is a poor design decision imo...feels lazy and rushed
And I guess you missed the part where lots of people exploited to V10...and never got banned reset or anything now these folks are ruining pvp.Edited by JexTex on April 25, 2014 1:16PM0 -
dumbo✭I can see your point, but oddly I'm finding VX content to be better than the pre-50 content.
- the difficulty is better, the game is more interesting.
- the maps are less crowded. (I've seen bosses that aren't being camped o_O).
- equipment is "meaningful"/lasts longer. (no-one seriously had a set of level 49 gear at level 49, whilst everyone at V1 gets a set of V1 gear).
However, I would agree that V10 players in PvP are probably a balance issue.0
