Default Why are there hell levels still?

They only were invented originally a dirty move by a monopoly to force everyone to pay longer subscriptions without creating any content. Years later, we are on a free fan server (for which I'm thankful for, it is fun). So shouldn't we remove that pointless thing? Those hell levels are just annoying.

I literally don't know a single person who missed hell levels or wanted that.

Anyhow just my rant about getting through lvl 35.

on TAKP, XP is buffed to like 4x (iirc) the p99 rates.

could be wrong on 4x, but its noticeably quite faster.

Hell levels are less of an issue there, but also if you're stressing over the 35 hell level on p99, then 59 will make your hair turn gray.

They have a global 20% exp boost as that was part of the original AK server. They still have hell levels but they “smoothed” out the levels so the hell levels aren’t nearly as bad as P99.

just asking, you sure about the smoothed out hell levels? i thought that came wayyyy later on in xpacs, like DODH era.

my 6 toons on takp are 50-54, the toon in lvl 54 is gaining xp at a snails pace compared to 53

The hell levels still exist with 54 and 59 both being noticeable. But 30, 35, 40, 45, 51-53 and 55-58 are all noticeably easier compared to p99. Level 54/59 can be done in less then a day at the right camp.

i demand you stop using this incorrectly
Mario's Hidden Block scenario is artificial difficulty

Hell levels are just tedious, not difficult.

Have to agree with Enji here...

oh, and if this game was easy, you wouldn't come back and play it for as long as we do. The difficulty is what keeps us around..
