Last Hell level @ 45?

[Yardcore]

When I played on Live, my highest level was 54 before I stop playing EQ.

I remembered that the last hell level was 45.

Please tell me there are no more hell level :)

59 is the worst hell level by far

[Sirken]

54 and 59 are both bad :)

Technically all the levels from 51 to 60 are hell levels, just 54 and 59 are like mega hell levels.

Maybe that was the reason i stopped playing at 54 LOL!

Thanks for the replies :)

Oh you have a few more to go. Long time ago when Nilbog punnished like 300 + accounts he knocked down level 60 people to level 54 1/2. I think at that level you need 60% more XP to make it back to 60. Here is a link to Wiki. Down towards the bottom. Read and weep. http://wiki.project1999.org/Game_Mechanics#Experience_Requirement_by_Level

It's worth mentioning that the mobs you are likely going to fight after L50 give way more xp per kill than those at earlier levels. There is hope yet, so don't stop believing =)

6:1 are your odds comparing 54 hell to 59.

Its pretty bad, thats not including your -% class/race modifiers. Wut u doing with ur life son?

As a soloing mage, it took me 50 hours straight. And that was killing 15-18 dark blues per hour. I did it in 4 days. (shudder)

I remember 53, 54 and 59 being pita's

the rest all went by pretty quickly (by EQ standards)

Level 51-60 are all at least 3x worse than any level that precedes them. On the bright side once you are level 51 you and grind while getting good loot if you have a decent group happening. On the not so bright side grinding just for grinding isn't a lot faster.

[Tasslehofp99]

50% through level 54 is halfway to level 60 from level 1, so if you are level 54 with 50% exp...you're halfway to 60. (If that makes sense, it does to me anyway)

I seem to remember on Live, that when grouping, 3 hours would typically net me one blue in 59; if it was a really good group then I could get a blue in 2 hours.

It is generally better than that on here. My 59 rogue gets 2/3 or 3/4 of a blue in an hour in a typical group in KC. It'd be a bit better in HS or seb or chardok probably, probably 1 blue per hour.

My Troll SK begs to differ lol. Stupid penalties

Perhaps this is partially attributable to less overcrowding in zones? I'm only level 49 here and so obviously have never done anything in KC or OS, but I get the impression that groups can pull more in these dungeons on P99 than they could on Live.
