Currently fishing is 10 exp per catch. I did a lot of fishing the otherday and I was getting about 2.5 fish per minute.

Approximations used.
The total experience needed to 55: 130,000
130,000 / 25 = 5200 minutes or 87 hours of fishing....

That's crazy high in my opinion.

Currently logging is 1xp per log. I get aboot 35 XP per minute WITHOUT taking leaves down

That's 130,000 / 35 = 3714 minutes or 62 hours.

Even a combo of the two will take forever and a day... additionally leaves are still leftover and I'd like to think I'm good at fishing so the hours may be higher for an average or below average fisherman.

Seeing as growth is still very slow and even with growth it will be difficult to level farming I propose a bit of an increase to the XP gained for farmers and depending on what other crafters level off of they may need a raise too.

I put less time into leveling several world of Warcraft characters to level 85 than I would speccing crafted.

@aceshooter11 I believe you are a high level merchant, what's your input?

I hate World of Warcraft and I think the leveling system is quite insulting. We'll look at making Fishing XP a bit more - but don't expect really easy leveling.

eh, it was just an example, but either way the point still stands. Its a 60-80 hour grind. I'm using Warcraft as an example cuz I figured you were familiar with it lol. Point being I dont want to spend more time grinding to 55 spec than I did playing skyrim, or Saints Row 3.

Playing the game is all well and good, yes, but firstly, one of the main reasons I play Herocraft, and this may not only apply to me, is because of Heroes. Frankly I could get the whole "just play the game" from singleplayer. I'm sure many people play because they can gain new skills and play a class. IDK bout some people but I cease to play minecraft, I play Heroes/Herocraft. Secondly, you don't get the full "experience" of Herocraft by just playing the game. maybe as a combat class you do, but seeing as , for example, I gain levels from logging and fishing, I don't need anymore logs or fish. If I just played the game I wouldn't ever hit 55 farmer.

( Disclaimer: This does not including the community and the vast majority of other reasons why I do play on Herocrack)

Farming at the moment, because of anti-growth is hurting. We're working on fixes and adding in fun alternatives - when time permits.

Biggest issues on the plate are HTTP/Lag

Aceshooter has been playing for 1.85 and at this time is 53. Something is wrong with this. Ive played most likely more than him, spent several hours fishing and logging and am level 12

In any event it isnt a competition. I have 1.4 days on the current jar. It is a different one from day one because my day 1 jar was fucked up
