Animists are a tank's friend. Find one or two and let mayhem and xp reign. Don't need chanters in a mushroom factory xp group.

Yeah... cant pbae exp to 50 in 3 days, and then wake up and wonder what half your styles do. I can see how that is bad.

I think you are a bit narrow-minded, but what did I expect when putting my opinion here :(

Yeah thats everything that happened in malmo... A huge amount of players being on a list struggling for a place in one of the two exp groups so that they could eventually get to lvl 50.

I guess I've dreamt about that or something ^^

How ardrias got xp was sitting in GNA crafting , hoping an other xp group would form and we could run to the swamps and have some fun.
Malmo u needed fg to even have a chance to get in when it opend.
Sit at gna form groups later it was at stone in malmo ent. Now they have to work for XP again and all are crying, maybe we gonna get a new generation of players again that can use tell and try arange things and learning to make it works after putting work into it.
Malmo was to easy XP ( afk fon 10 min ) ( food brb takes 20 min )
so many people doing minimum to get xp other then runing to a spot and sign up.
Still places to get as fast XP as malmo, just arrange it and maybe find a MAP and look around.

Another problem in Malmo is the rather nasty named mobs now. 100% magic resist on most of the ones I've fought so far.

I wouldn't mind, but my class is supposed to be a very effective solo class - I go to Malmo for some farming and to get items for guildpeeps from time to time. That ability has now been taken away from me. My main weapon is my lifetap, which named mobs now have 100% resist against.

Someone suggested hitting mob, and then the resist disappears.
So I figured, what the hell. I took on Kariig who had popped as orange con. Now bear in mind I've defeated him in the past on loads of occasions, even when he cons red. Junior got him to 80% health using damage shield, I hit him once... and instantly got agro. My weapon did not proc and I had cast no DDs against him.

One dead Roo.

I'm severely hacked off at this mainly because I have yet another area its pointless for me to try soloing in as the reward for risk ratio is now appalling. I managed to kill Rana and Alfriig. Alfriig conned yellow and I could not damage him directly. Had to use damage shield the whole way. Rana I could lifetap as before (she also cons yellow).

And all this for 89% qual SB boots with only AF90 on them?

Good bloody grief Mythic. They were supposed to be bringing the 3 realms epic zones into line with each other by making Hib and Alb zones better, not by screwing up Malmo.

Malmo Is not just used by lazy people that can't form groups without a list.

Some of us actually *hunt* there... or used to :/

Malmo was not only a great place for xp'ing but you made friends there and then when you actually did ding 50, you could go into RvR with the friends you made in malmo and many great things came from that! I mean obviously u could still group with the same ppl all the time but i dunno malmo although mind numbling boring was good in its own way :)

Mythic's response would probably be "Malmo is now working as Intended" :(

You can still make a fixed pbae group and exp to 50 in 3 days, and then wake up and wonder what half your styles do.

That has nothing to do with Malmo, more than that pbae destroyed the best things about it. These days some ppl running around in the frontier and try to use "tank order" with Albies and Hibbies.

Let's face it. It takes a few mins to work out what your styles do (when you already have 1+ lvl 50), not 3 days.

Seems mythic do enjoy in fucking over mid, not only are many of our classes next to useless, but now the best way for 40-50 is screwed, thanks mythic, now we only really have DF to look to and we dont have that all the time, cheers.

There is way more places in mid to exp then malmo and DF. Just that mids have gotten to used to just sit on a list and join when someone gave em a tell. Mid would be such a much better place if we hadent gotten Malmo to start with.

I don't see how it benefits a realm to have a major xp area decimated by thoughtless programming.

Its not a case of its a little harder - unless you have extremely high level players now you simply can't go there, and even then its very dangerous.

I was testing out various strategies against named mobs last night and saw a number of groups getting wiped out which included many lvl50s.

There is absolutely no reason for me to go to Malmo any more to farm either cash or items. The items are barely worthwile for a single char to go there for, and certainly not worth it for a group (at least 2 peeps +) which you now need.

Getting past the various draks to the prime xp areas was always tricky, and nobody could ever guarantee to always get there, even lvl50s. Now even if you get somewhere, you have major problems as with the locations of the various mobs, cfh makes group wipeout a matter of time, not bad luck.

And making mobs magic resistant? Good grief. Yes, maybe make magic less effective, but making it 100% resistant means certain classes simply can't go there. From the tests I've done so far, I think only a full Summoning SM could take down a named mob in Malmo now (talking about casters now, not melee classes). I've not seen if they resist runie damage, but I know I do bugger all now except for the damage shield. I have 26 Summoning, and with the damage shield I have at my disposal I was out of power long before the mob was dead if orange con. And even when pet has done like 50%-60% damage to mob, I still get agro instantly if I hit with staff.

Mythic's obsession with making high level areas only accessable for large teams of high level chars is becoming very tedious. This is fun sometimes, but a lot of the time its just nice to go off and do stuff yourself,especially if you've taken the time to make a char that is good at soloing.

Raumarik and Vanern can be good xp spots for high level chars, but Raumarik doesn't have a particularly good spawn rate of Greater Fenrir, Sleipneerson don't add and there isn't much else there to hunt for high level chars that is worth the risk (Frost stallion nuke for example will take down most chars very fast, same with wyverns of the various types that hang around there). Vanern - well, apart from Jotuns, there is nothing roughly equivilent to drakulvs there. Hagbui and spiders are for low 40s, not 45+ unless in very small groups.

Bit ironic that a couple of patches after we get a horse route that makes getting to Malmo easier, it gets removed as a viable place to go for most people :D

SI have several good "Malmoe lookalike" places. The changes to Malmoe is a step in forcing people to buy SI, imo.

I suggest trollhiem being the new levelling spot, its easy to get to (just as easy as the old malmo) and If we have 2fg (malmo?!) We can camp the bar there and kills some mobs and get drunk at the same time ;)

Oh and if you dont have SI go get it :p
