I'm getting a little frustrated with archase to tell the truth.
yep, I can stick to the viking village, wivern forest, and nurgling mound and nurgling swamp but that is no fun, as I've seen those areas far too many times, so I go into a new area, am fine most of the time then suddenly bam! one mob ko's me in an instant fight because there is one harder monster like nana in asgard (where I've still not managed to find the quest), or Steven in the hospital, ---- which was a none combat area up to the fight with him, however for some reason the flee command just failed to work so he killed me again!

i've just done this twice, once in asgard and once in the hospital, both times to mobs hwho were the hardest person there, and now for all that I've played alter for about 5 hours today have wound up with less xp than when I started with, ---- despite the fact that my new eq seems to be better.

This was why I haven't played much for a while, but for all my playing today, completing a couple of quests and gaining several explorer points I've not got anywhere in terms of levels at alls, in spite gaining at least 4 mill xp today in total!

it's actually a shame there isn't a way to save your xp so you don't lose as much when dying.

Grrrrr!

Beware the grue!

Hi Lindsey.

Interestingly I notice from the levels of your characters that you fall into
that bracket of 65 to 90 which is where I have often found it hard to
progress. With Alter Aeon I often find when you get to Archies the real
challenge begins. Up until that point your hand is being held quite a lot by
the quests and when you get to archies you have to be a lot more careful
about where you go. It is difficult to advise you on areas and specifics
without knowing where you currently try to go. The mainland is a real
mixture although it is getting better, there are places where you can get
decent XP without dying but they are spread out quite a bit I find and often
can be slap bang next to areas where you will get your arse kicked in a
second.

Progression at times like this can often be a case of more than simple hack and slash. AA gives you many opportunities to get xp and when staying alive
is harder to do then it is often time to not step out of the easier areas
just yet but switch tactic and gain the xp from other means such as skill
improves or high return skills like turn undead. If you just want to hack
and slash to get xp then get yourself into groups and benefit from the added security they offer. I personally prefer to solo quite a lot and do have to
switch my playing style quite a lot to maintain that stream of XP. From
simply gathering exploration points to focusing on particular skills and
spells to get improves, doing quests obviously helps too.

Hope this helps a little and if you want to provide more info on the areas
you currently go then I would be happy to offer more advice.

Paul

Hi all,

I used to play alter aeon, but found it very hard to xp. My two main
characters, Deborah and Tina, are quite high level, and I struggle to find
areas to xp any more, and when I xp, I die, has anyone got any advice?
