Kriptini I heard there's some kind of LFG/LFM interface, is that right? Good move if so. How does it work?

It's a tab on the inventory screen.

Is it global? Or only players within that zone?

The problem is movement is such a fucking slog in the game, because they go by old school MMO nostalgia or whatever, that everyone wants a class that goes fast.

So you get shamans, druids, and bards being the top played classes. Not because anyone wants to play them, but because begging a stranger to move faster for 30 minutes sucks dick.

Mounts are in the game. I'm not sure if they're enabled for this test, but there will be mounts you can purchase and ride for increased travel speed.

As Gravel said, they're tabs on your inventory screen, and I think you can also access them in the independent social window (O hotkey). It's a global system.

That’s great news. Thanks!

Anyone know the formulae for grouping with disparate levels? I passed my companions a bit.

I think a distance of 6 levels prevents the low level from getting XP.

Pretty sure this one is a whole week.

So far it's had zero impact on Quarm population, but I'm curious to see online numbers there during primetime. Quarm was on shutdown last Monsters and Memories test.

a week!

I saw Kriptini! We were horribly lost in wyrmsbane. Looking for shaman quest dust or something.

That's crazy. We have a Memory Leak thread going on in the Discord if you want to report it there: Discord - Group Chat That’s All Fun & Games

Quarm is about 15% down from what you’d expect at this hour, so that’s interesting.

MnM max concurrent looks like it went from 1710 last test to 1870 this one. Their highest population day was the first day last test.

EDIT: nvm Quarm is back where it should be.

My favourite thing about this was that Druids were the most commonly played class for the reasons you described, but then they couldn't get a group after level 45 until they gave them a ghetto Complete Heal in Luclin lol.

But ya, as you touch on, the lack of self awareness of the MnM community is astounding. "We want meaningful travel!". "We want group focused gameplay!". "We want difficulty!". Then the community proceeds to play the five most solo friendly classes the most, with the 3 early runspeed classes among them. They are literally making class choices that makes the game as easy as possible for them, so they can circumvent the difficulty they've begged for. It's like some kind of dork version of Stockholm Syndrome.

Wait until the world is complete and it's 5x its current size.

Poor Archer. Somehow they made an even gayer version of Ranger.
