    I feel ya Isaiah, i really, really do! I put a ton of hard work in also, i'm lvl 48!!

    But if they need to wipe for purposes of building the game, then they gotta do it. We do want it completed in a reasonable time-frame..... and it's already running behind initial estimates....

    oooo, one thing i've got to ask though.... if there is a wipe do we have to do the hat quest over again??

    No you don't need to do the hat quests again. They are permanently tied to the account.

    I fully expect wipes. The game isn't balanced yet -- including level progression and skill gain.

    I'd be worried if they didn't wipe.

    Seriously. Cause unless everyone wants to be a full plate wearing, dual-wielding fighter, everything else == suckage for survival really.

    Cool, I can finally find some plants - I have a city lot beside the Bear Tavern I was working on towards the end - though I was getting held up by money and wood at the time.

    Sophi, you'll be happy to know you're in the top 20 people on leveling! :)


    And to Smack, yes, the game is far from balanced. Armor is currently super powerful, spells still aren't balanced and don't scale with level, creatures exps need a full pass as some creatures are worth 10x as many exps as other nearly identical creatures, lots of exploits, lots of missing skills, no restriction on training speeds and retraining, no death penalty, etc

    There will definitely be wipes of some kind at some point but haven't set a time just yet. Also, we'll consider doing something like just reducing exps and gold to a percentage of current exps.

    Yeah but I like being able to devastate stuff like a tank. I leveled up as a wizard, and now I turned into the hulk and am able to smash!

    I'm level 35 and will probably be no more than level 35 until after the launch of this game. If (when) there's a wipe, I'll probably be level "I don't care" until launch.

    Eks (x) has been pretty high for most of the weekend as well. I'd say he was in the running for number 1 as well.

    I felt more powerful at level 35 than at level 42. The minimum deck size keeps getting larger. After 25 cards it feels like it gets a bit diluted. I'm sure many people will want to put all sorts of variety in their deck, but not all characters, and people are the same. I hope it doesn't keep getting bigger as we level, because I really felt less powerful at 30 cards than I was at 25 cards.

    20 to 25 cards I was able to blast enemies with flaming fists, fire arrows etc etc. At 30 cards I had to throw some extra stuff in there that I really didn't want (effectively making me weaker than I was even 10 levels lower). I switched to maces and it wasn't any better.

    So it was worth it to level beyond 35 because if I didn't get to 41 I wouldn't have known the deck expands to 30 glyphs minimum.

    I'm just kidding. I don't care if they wipe us. Let business be business. We are helping them by testing.

    Although If you wouldn't mind leveling to 51 to see if the deck size goes to 35 I would be interested to hear that. Stuff isn't carved in stone, and maybe they made the decks change like that to get feedback on that?
