PA,
I think you forgot to account for the severe drop in exp gain while training a horse past level 50... I used to get 1200-1400 exp a tick and now with full buffs it's 400. It literally takes a week to go up one level. You can't seriously expect people to afk ride their horses for a year straight to get it to level 100 so it won't be attacked in grind spots...
On top of the nerf to exp gain, the horse's exp requirement goes up exponentially per level, so I'm expecting my dream horse to require somewhere around 10 million at level 99. Can we PLEASE fix this?
haha they dont care, they save that QOL for the next outrage PR stunt, I bet they have a list of things they can fix within 20 min to satisfy us but keep it for tough times
The horse buffs is to keep the low level mobs that don't attack the player from attacking the mount. It's not so that you can drop your horse off in the middle of Red Orcs and have it be completely fine. It is meant so that when we finally get a level 78 player the horse will also be level 78, which btw level 78 is what is needed to get the Red Orcs to be grey con.
Only 23 more levels until orcs don't aggro my horse. T-T
Update for those who care: after level 55 you receive another 1/2 exp reduction. I am currently earning 200 exp per tick and the requirements for my doom are now 5.3 million.
I though they were going to introduce some pearl items to speed up the process, perhaps this is currently on hold due to all the recent p2w controvercies.
