Mob Arena - Free starter arena

[Hiayion]

I was thinking there could be a "starter" mob arena that's free entry.
Maybe no rewards until at the end of it, you get a single diamond. To which, you can then use to enter the other more difficult arenas.

 

[Kwong050]

nah but maybe we could implement an arena that one can use untill a certain lvl

 

[Plasma78]

better yet, limit the amount of times one can enter in a period. like 2 times an hour or something.

i always see the same players in there.

Honestly, I think the repetition and clogging problems with be solved by more arenas; a good starter arena is the entire world, free, lots of mobs, and it lets you get a feel for the mobs .

imho i dont like the mob arenas. it allows for streamline access to lvl 55 in a few days of mindless grinding. whereas before the MAs you had to wander around to level up and always be fearful you'd get jumped at any time. THAT was exciting and difficult. i miss it.

 

[aceshooter11]

A rage of hardness between different arenas would be fun

Could you guys ever make a way for certain lvls can access different arenas @Kainzo

 

[Kwong050]

maybe limiting the amount of arenas, there would be more wilderness PvE

To be honest, with the exp you lose for being in a party, It's often easer to run around and kill mobs outside of the arena. And by killing those you get coins... And with coins you can buy diamonds... and with diamonds you can get into the arenas!

Wait, the entire outside world is a starter arena now that I think about it...
(100% serious and not in the slightest sarcastic by the way)

I like the level range idea. That would actually be awesome. Not sure what the "brackets" should be though.
1-30 non-spec then 1-30, 31-55?
Then have some awesome 55 only arena.

Outside grinding doesn't seem to work out well for me. I'll run around aimlessly and find maybe 3-5 mobs once in a while. Dark rooms are an option, I guess. But, I don't currently have access to any.

Honestly I have to disagree. It has always been a mindless grind, because the only efficient way to level back then during the day was darkrooms, and now mob arena, while fun when in a good organized group, can be tedious and just as boring as darkrooms and waiting for night time (similar to waiting for people in the ma to die).

One of the things I've always disliked about heroes, even last map, is the lack of fun, efficient ways to level. I know it's supposed to be hard to level, but why must it be torturous to level? The only time I have fun leveling any class is when an event pops up. I'm almost mad I changed to ranger, because leveling can be so tedious and frustrating.

I completely agree. Ever since I got level 30 I haven't cared much to level. It simply isn't fun.

Now with MA, it is fun. However if we are going to impliment a free arena, it should be restricted to people who have not yet spec'd, and have no previous masteries (if possible)

It costs a diamond for a reason, it's very FAST leveling when done right. However doing it right should have such a just reward, however I have no problems with the cost right now.

I think the best thing would be to do is disable leveling in mob arenas. Dragon seems like it is turning into zeal. Everyone would sit in the the no pvp area and it was horrible.

Disable leveling in the mob arena is the best thing to do.

If you turned off leveling in the MA, what would be the use of them? Pay a diamond to kill mobs for fun? HA

Why bother even having them then? lol... >_>

Its fun

And you could make it free

 

[GreekCrackShot]

It's not fun, it's a grind, like it has always been.

 

[Kainzo]

If you dont enjoy doing arenas - then don't - plain and simple.

If you think sitting grinding in a dark room is more fun, you're doing something wrong

MA costs diamonds :3
DarkRooms cost time where you level your Crafting

uh I dont like ether of those. I'm still happy I run round at night and mob hunt over the terrain, makes it more interesting, and i get to see the land

mob areana to me is more of a show of balls, who got the biggest and can last vs wave after wave of mobs.

Nothing wrong with fighting mobs along terrain, is best way to level in my opinion.

Yea that is exactly what I like to do. It lets you explore which keeps you more interested. And it doesn't cost a diamond....
