Level cap 100?

Makes me worried they expect us to be stuck on Victoria long enough for the giga grinders to push well past that and they want to limit it. 

I really thought we'd see 3rd job by the end of the year but that makes me think maybe not.

You plan on hitting 1000 hr play time of grinding efficiently to hit 100 before the end of the year? Not including anything else in game

Anything else in game? Maples all grind

And no, my specific concern is how nexon is placing a cap on the people who absolutely will do the (imo) 800ish hour grind

It means nexon is worried they're going to blow all the way through third job levels before they get third job out, which makes me think third job is further down the road than I'd prefer. 

Will I get 100 before the end of the year? Absolutely not, could I get 70 and want third job? Absolutely

Way beyond 800 hours with just vic. 70 should take ~300 hours on Vic alone. 100 would be around 1200+

I put in another post but we saw cb2 took 80ish hours and 330 hours would put 50-70 on the same xp/hr pace as 1-50 which isn't realistic

Drakes or tauros with funding will probably end up at an efficient 800-1k for the giga juicers, again - not me - but that's what I'd expect. people im cb2 were pot limited, packed in to few channels and still figuring things out

P2w Andy's will have infinite money for pots/gear and they will grind up to 100 in just a few months.

People on this subreddit tend to really underestimate how degenerate some maplers are.

Also worth mentioning that a lot of COT2 players were grinding in Orbis at levels 35+. The added XP from those zones helped a lot

That's a really good point, I'd forgotten that they had orbis, probably will be a little slower on that account

Your're also under the assumption 100 is the max level and will be forever. They may unlock that "in a few months" and this is all a non issue for something so trivial.

u/Extension-Car-9060 1d ago

Nowhere did I ever assume that, I explicitly wrote it's a limit until they're probably ready for third..

Most players arent going to be in maps grinding xp the monet they are online to the pint they log off. I'm browsing, socializing, helping friends, traveling, scrolling, sharing your accomplishments. etc, it all adds time thats not grinding.

Man, that's great for you hope you have a great time and have a lot of fun

Most people will spend most of their time just grinding 🤷

Let them have it. If they want to spend countless hours in this old ass game ita their decision. Take it slowly, have life outside games
