Level Start Survey?

Hi,

I was thinking, idk if it is possible though.

Maybe every player start off at level 1 like we used to but we get a popup as soon as we log into the toon for the first time that is a survery that asks us would we rather start from level 1 and work our way to 65 or start off at 60 and start our PVP.

The survey can look something like this:

Hi Daeva,

The power of Israphel, the gods have allowed us to grant you your memories up to a certain point using the Light of Aion. Though we can give you this chance to skip ahead to the future, you may be lacking the skills you may need that will be gained from recovering your memories using the campaign granted by the Regions.

*Click here to start from level 1
*Click Here to start from level 60

May the light of aion always be with you!

Within the message and what you selected. If you click the second option, you will have an admin command activate on your toon and your level will be set to 60.
If you click the first option, your character gets nothing special.

What do you think?

 

This is a pretty nice concept, even though what levels you up to 60 isn't a GM command, it's the actual amount of the quest EXP.
...could be a perfect step towards removing the insta-60 entirely, though.

DOIT!

 

There is a command I believe called /setlevel or something like that. It can be done.

 

There is a command, however. Surveys can reward items, exp, and such.
They cannot activate a command syntax that I am aware of. Unless the tied xml, and it's tagging somehow could manage to do that I doubt it.
That would be an interesting way to balance out the question of remove or keep instant level 60 though.

Any other forum users thoughts on this?

 

The idea is good, if we have different types of players, the ones who wants instant level up and the ones who doesn't want instant level up, so, if possible, this improvement will please all types of players

 

Well if that is the case. The second option will need to connect to a second survery since experience stops at level 9. So If they choose to skip levels, they should get 2 surveys. First survey instant levels them to level 9, then you get the Path choosing option, then you get the second survey that gives you the exp needed to level 60.

But of course you know this already. Your puddles XD

 

First 9 levels are somewhat silly anyway.

Game can start them at level 9; with survey available then.

 

Perfect then Ma'am

That's why you are the HeadGM, you always thinking.

 

I was gonna post that suggestion but you posted it first >w<
Anyways, good suggestion :3, If this gets implemented then im going to create a new character and waste my time leveling
(Its liek you stole my suggestion :,< , I posted mine on Paulablue's thread)

 

I agree on that, we have discussed it a few weeks ago. The insta level to level 60 is nonsense, imo. Player just with 60 and don't know what to do or how to handle their own class. Also the survey rewards were always a nice thing to have. I bet we could customize them a bit more so there's no junk and such as. :3

I'm curious to hear what players would like to have in those survey rewards. So feel free to drop a post here, suggestions are always very welcome~! Just keep in mind, no OP things, please. X3

 

Good Idea.. Soo that other Low level maps also can be useful..

 

damn amba/shep gear too op
maybe EAC or HAC be great items to get at lvl 65 so atleast ya don't really have to farm IS all day and night to get amba/shep atleast it gives ya stuff to buy and earn with some pride
maybe also gives shep accs since the new accs are implemented on donations

 

Agree! First because, as mentioned, people would stop complaining about removing/keeping the insta 60, and because having instant level 60 doesn't allow us to do some of the things that Aion has designed for lower level characters which can be needed for quests or so

 

Yes bring back the leveling system and ditch the instant 60-65 crap. The server is already high rate so having instant level 60 is just dumb. In a way people can actually learn to play their freaking class and be decent and not QQ about being noob.

Also twink PvP bitches!

 

I don't think leveling from 1-65 teaches players how to be good at their class now does it.. It literally takes 30 minutes, what will they learn in 30 minutes let's be realistic >.< Yes I do agree that they will learn other things about the game like what scrolls are or what classes are or what other services are or general things about Aion.. but they won't learn how to play their class out of leveling lol! Maybe in retail, not here

This is why I do think that the main reason why there should be an option to level up manually is to serve those who like to PvE.. For example people who want to enter instances that they cannot enter with L60, or generally do anything they cannot do with L60!

And I would complain if L60 got "ditched" aswell.. I'm a major lazy bum, and there were times when I wouldn't make new characters just because I didn't wanna spend those 10-20 minutes leveling, even if I was being leveled up by my legionmates >.> We're trying to serve both sides here, both people like me who want L60 and people like you who don't! If L1 leveling is brought back, L60 will still remain ;o

 

Not just leveling up to 60 is the main problem. I also suggest that the starter gear should be upgraded too. It's useless to use Elite Archon Sentinel sets with the newbies. I suggest they should be upgraded to ACD or HAC since players do rarely use those sets anyway.

I do suggest the rewards given like the 4.5 server, the tokens, scrolls, pots and everything. They're useful now I think and I think you should give this a try

But if somebody wouldn't agree with this. It'll be fine

 

About the leveling part, it takes like ~30 minutes, depending on how fast you are, to level up easily to level 63 or even 65. We used to level our toons to level 9 and then do Rentus Base. TADA~! =3 If you are level 63 or 64, just finish the Katalam campaign and you are pretty much done. So I really don't see the sense of the insta level 60, it breaks more the game than it helps, in my opinion. It also needs to be considered that some of the mentoring quests are not available because of this, and you can't obtain those lovely remodels anymore, which you can buy with Orichalcum Tokens.

About the starter gear, the S.AMs and @Puddles were talking about this a while ago as already mentioned, people just don't know for sure what is going on behind the curtains.
And believe it or not, but HAC got mentioned in this discussion too, so I'm glad to read that some peoples are suggesting the same. It's a good starter set and people can actually do something with it.

I'll note down everything to stay on track, so keep the suggestions up. In the end we want to make the community happy instead of putting something online who nobody likes, that's not our goal! =3

 

I Really miss questing on a low level maps like Altgard Morhei and etC..
I have tried playing other aion.. and im lvl 35 at that time{Hard Mode; low Exp).. And we all got Shocked that next time we log-in all of the players restart no level 1.. Its impossible but became possible..

 

Thanks God for hearing our suggestions <3
