I wounder if they Nerfed the belts because low lvls would petition all the time how multiple high lvls are farming everything in Crushbone.

Lucky for me I did the belt trick on an alt prior to this nerf.

200 belts got me from lvl 2 to 14

If you find direct evidence contradicting a result, please post it on the bug forums.

Thanks for clarifying. Will the staff be posting the sources for the information used to make the determination? That would be helpful for everyone to see I think.

Took about 80+ belts to get my lvl 10 dwarf rogue to lvl 11 on blue server - does this sound normal?

Not sure how DF and CB compare, but I took my Cleric from 6 to 14 with about 200 of them.

Bump for Telin (if you don't mind, Telin). What was the evidence used to determine the classic rates?

Probably Allakhazam/Safehouse/Druids Grove archives, really the only forums still intact from 1999-2001.

25 CB belts was 'around' 4 orange at lvl 8.

Hopefully belt prices come down after this nerf, people still trying to near around 2 plat for em which now seems like robbery.

I first use archives from Everlore, classic-era Zam comments, and Google groups before digging further when needed.

I'll give you one example that should be similar to P99:

Indeed. I am a Level 12 Cleric and for turning in about 12 belts, I get about a half a bubble of XP. Add to that, between 4 and 16 silver PER BELT and some low level armor or item oer belt also which I sell, this quest is VERY worthwhile for me.

And having Gate helps tremendously as an easy portal from Kaladim back to the Kelethin Orc Lift for more killing!
