Towns are too far apart.

Especially when the levels in between them are large levels. It took me nearly 3 hours today to solo from Moorcroft to Emberlight, and that was with skipping an entire floor, and at least half of another. Having a party makes things go faster, but even then you're looking at a chunk of time to go from one town to the next.

This is problematic because towns are the only place that you can 1) save your progress and 2) change your gear.

I don't think I'm alone on point 1, as there are a lot of posts about saving progress in levels, at terminals, when idling out and when leaving a party. People feel compelled to spend massive energy on revives to protect their progress as well. More frequent save points (towns) would help mitigate these problems, without creating awkward scenarios where people are caught in an instanced level after their party has moved on and the like.

On point two, unless we continue to dump all the same minerals into each gate all the time, the level flavors are going to change up more frequently than once every nine floors. The ability to adjust gear at more frequent intervals makes specialized gear more useful, which adds variety.

On the point of there being

On the point of there being not enough towns to save your progress, I'm pretty sure that's not an issue for very long. Yes, it does take some time to reach new towns when you start off but I see this as part of the challenge. If you run out of energy midway through, start over until you manage to reach the town. I like how it is now. Plus you still keep what you collect even if you leave the dungeon, so it's not like anything is lost.

I say this is not true for very long because when I do runs to the core now, it takes me around an hour max on solo.

But hey, that's just me. Maybe I am crazy.

Not that hard

I can solo from moorcroft to emberlight in like 30 minutes
But there are places I would like to stop to rest, change gear, do some alchemy if I have the extra energy
But we dont really need more towns right now
Im sure there will be more later
But now, not so much

Just sayian

Any thread made pre-April 2011 was before the game was officially released (also known as beta). There has been some pretty big changes since then so it is safe to assume all those threads are no longer relevant. Plus there are no more legacy users so if you're expecting an answer you ain't getting it.

They're Not Going To Answer Though.

Hexzyle's stating you bumped a REALLY old thread that shoulda been Graveyarded and Locked a lonh time ago. Don't Necro old topics please. Either find what you were looking for with the uber-fancy search bar, or make a new thread.

THANKS!

Plus, necro'ing threads like this is just pointless. The information is usually out of date, and I'm not even sure if they play anymore. Lotsa happens in two years. We have Arsenal Stations now, so whatever they might say would just lead to that now. So...yeah.

EDIT~ What Mk-VI said.

@Aotr

I, however, don't like your 'attitude to things'.

Whatever Asuka said, Hexzyle meant, but minus the rage.

Let me spell it out for you:
-This thread is about a year and a half old
-This game just a little older than that.
-Therefore, this game has changed since then.
-Also, the person has likely stop taking an interest in forum affairs in that time.
-Your question was irrelevant. Gear does NOT equal playing ability. I don't care if you can pack the most powerful weapons in existence, it wouldn't do you any good if you can't aim them.
-Arsenal stations have been added since then. Simple matter to equip better gear for each stage.

"and i don't care if i bumped a really old thread"

REALLY. The thread's discussion is irrelevant to your question. Simple matter to mail the guy and see if you even get a response. This thread is borderline ANCIENT.

Other points:
-There is such a thing on your posts called an 'Edit button' Saves you from having to make 20 posts when you want to add something small.
-"are you a massive troll or something" Irrelevant. Define 'troll' because Asuka is CLEARLY a rager, not a troll.
-Punctuation and grammar/capitals go a long way in proving you're over the age restrictions.
-Just because someone said it nicer, doesn't mean they don't mean the same thing. Hex just likes to be more positive about it. However, the essential meaning is the same; Don't bump a dead thread for no reason, especially one THIS old.
