Make a smart choice

Devs, raise the trial cap to 40.

Re: Make a smart choice

I'll second that.

It's awfully easy to get the four level 21s in the span of a single day, thanks to all the quest XP rewards. A number of players are going to feel frustrated by this limitation - especially on possible new servers where there won't be an established community to tell about the fun you get once you're off Silan.

Hmhm, yes I agree.
21 is reached far to fast to really appreciate the Trial.

Anywhere between 30 and 50 is good by me. I agree 21 is too low.

Re: Make a smart choice

i would say 51 would be good for Silan ,so noobs can see at 51 how the skill tree is splitting and such .... that they can think off what they can do as next

Simplest solution - remove quest awards. Problem fixed.

Re: Make a smart choice

You guys remember your first days of Ryzom? I remember it was hard, particularly on the old start islands.
Silan is meant for people new to Ryzom. The overpowered quest rewards are meant to help new players too, ease the learning curve a bit. Older players may not like that but these rewards were never meant for people who already know the game.
Theres no HA quest rewards on Silan and only one jewelry piece, so crafting is still very important despite the quest rewards.
All games have severe limitations on their trials. EQ2 start island for example, you cant get past lvl 9 there and you can achieve that very fast, i heard nobody complaining about that and the game is doing very well.
Silan is perfectly designed and suited for new players, an excellent introduction to Ryzom. For a potential paying player the lvl 21 cap is not an issue. Raise the cap and you'll have a lot of Silan vets running around messing the balance of what was meant to be a starter island.

I don't think so, 21 is way too fast to reach, not only for people that already know the game. I don't care of EQ2, it's a different game. I still think would be better a cap at 40.

I remember the old islands, but there were another story.

How you can mess the balance? Don't forget that paying players stay in the same island with no cap at all, so that's really a no point.
