A way to raise level cap without ruining game!
Cybergasm
I think they need to keep the levels uncapped, however, make every level after level 20 count for nothing attrb. wise.
Have different auras for higher levels, acces to certain areas, acces to armor skins, etc... This way we would attract people who enjoy the grinding aspect of WoW and such, but it wouldn't ruin the game for who do not.
I would really like to see something given as reward for our experience. I don't mind fighting, but when its fighting for some minute chance to drop a weapon that can have 2 of 6 good mods, its just not exciting.

Oh, sorry, I would have but Im not really trying to get any change. I wanted to first get a general discussion about it. I'm not petitioning as I know it won't happen, but, I like discussions. The people on here always bring up good points.

This would actually ruin the game.
Many of the game mechanics is calculated basing on the character level, the damage, health etc...
Moreover, I don't see any good of the level being uncapped, when it doesn't affect your attribute and such.
And I'm not a fan of those unlimit level MMORPG as well.

my opinion of this horror of *OMG I AM SURROUNDED BY EQUALS* syndrome suggests a big wow enema as your best course of treatment

What is the point of that ?
When you lvl up from 1 to 20, your health increase and you have some attribute points. Now if you don't get any attribute point from lvl 20+, your skill level will stay the same, while your health is much higher with high lvl, that will completely break the mechanic of the game. Lightning Orb does 100 dmg to a lvl 30 warrior with 1000 health

i think its not a bad idea, if its purely for show - it wouldnt be used to calculate damage or health points.
you'd see lots of lvl100+ ppl in town (and you could tell someone is a bot if they are lvl 1000+)
and there would be elitist lfg spamming 'LOOKING for ppl mission and bonus, no noobs below lvl40 (i'm lvl42)'
there is a system like that in place already - use your skillpoints to cap elites, by the time you get 1st tier title, everyone will see that you earned 90+ skillpoints, tier 2 means you would be level 100+, if there was no cap.

If Anet ever raises the cap Im sure it will be interesting
Im not opposed to it as long as the gameplay remains balanced for the most part.

The person is just asking for a better reward for having more Xp/gaining more XP not asking for more hp/energy.
Its a good idea to have some incentive but from my point of view Anet only cares about PvP in the end so they won't give anything extra in the near future.

Lot of exp = you farm too much.
Lot of fame = you IWAY too much.
If it makes people happy, who cares. Let them have their rewards, think what you want, it's just a game. It's about grinding now anyway in case you haven't looked at the amount of faction to hold a town, or the amount playing required to get some of the titles.
PvE elitism? How about they create some areas that would actually require some PvE elitists to complete. Urgoz's has been cleared with 3 people when you can have 12, kinda hard to be elite in PvE when it's too easy.

hell... I'd just like to see when my necro will finally get the last skill point after level 20... if AN would let us see what level we're at after 20[21, 22 and so on for each skill point] that'd work fine for me
Mesmer of DOOM
Dumb idea...elitism sucks hard.
If you want WoW, go play it. Im here cause I HATEHATEHATE grinding.

On another note: Cybergasm, would you happen to be the one who wrote that fitness article about two or three years ago on MX?
If so: gib me 6-pak!

It's a EXP aura for farming, not raising the level cap that adds more HP and enery and attribute points. Why?
Zui
If you want to grind, go play WoW or EQ2.

Heres an idea: If you want to know what level you would be if there was no cap then do the math.
Level = (exp + 162,400) / 15,000. (according to guildwiki)
Level 100 is 1,337,600
Level 200 is 2,837,600
Level 300 is 4,337,600
Level 400 is 5,837,600
Level X is (X * 15,000) - 162,400.

We have a Faction title for Faction grind, we have a Gladiator title for TAing, Fame title for HAing, Champion title for GvGing...
I never see "Forming UW group, must be Protector of Tyria", "Forming AB group, must have 1 million Kurzick Faction", "Forming the deep group, must have Protector of Cantha". Why are we all immediately jumping to the conclusion that PuGing will become complete chaos if they introduce an exp title when there are already other methods out there that could be used as a measure of "PvE skill"?

This was suggested and people whined and griped about it. Even though it's what the game needs and the lack of it is killing the game.

I agree with the motion to elliminate the cap in terms of what's written by your character's name. It is rather pointless to me that we can still continue to gain skill points after level 20 but display them proudly. Every time you gain a skill point after level 20 you should get an extra 'level'. Nothing that really affects the game, as has been clarified, just something that shows your commitment to a character (or to a farming ground).

it is actually that in real life they are losers whose high point of their week is gaining another level just to prove how superior they are.
refer to the the panic insecurity syndrome known as *OMG I AM SURROUNDED BY EQUALS WITHOUT A HIGHER NUMBER TO PROVE HOW MUCH BETTER I AM*

I just flat out cold-turkey quit GW because it sucks so badly now. It's been nerfed over and over and over. No fun there. The level caps still suck. I've been playing classic console RPGs (Final Fantasy series, Lufia 2, etc) and they just totally blow GW out of the water.

What is CORPG and i had the idea that MMORPG stands for massivly multiplayer online role playing game so
1...we have a massive amout of ppl
2...u need the internet to play
3...u can play as a girl i.e role playing
4...its a game
and skill is not tied into how much u farm all u need is to look into the farming section of these forums get the build and go do it...not much skill there other than the fact that you can read

Just yesterday, Blizzard went on a banning spree on Diablo and my cd-key was done because of use of maphack. Strange how my friend who bots, maphacks, dupes, ebays, and scams managed to keep himself going on his original cd-key.
There is no justice, is there?
unholy guardian
i think there is enough eye candy for people in the game, titles?
So i don't agree with this idea.

your not gonna get a group for hells, you'll have to be a higher level, like level 20.
Also, this could ruin the game. Since some people think more exp=better player, you'll start seeing
"GLF Level 50+" etc. I dont think we need this.
So, basically /notsigned.

Speaking of titles, that would be an easy way to implement this idea. Just have an experience title. Would they actually show skill? Maybe not, but it wouldn't be any worse than the titles for opening lots of chests, IDing lots of rare items, and standing in circles for hours.

2) For every title you have to somewhat go out of your way. You get exp from killing monsters, doing quests, mission, capping skills, etc. So it would be too easy of a title to get

If you are concerned about it being too easy, I suppose you could make the experience req. high, or just make a large ladder of experience progression. As for point 1, what you say is true but it doesn't convince me that the idea is bad. Farmers aren't doing anything wrong, so why shouldn't they be able to have a title? As for Bots...they will have it, but so what? It really doesn't hurt anyone. Hopefully they will be banned at some point and then they won't be able to show it off anymore
Its not like I'm personally craving the ability to show off experience points, but I've heard this idea before from many people. If it will make some people happy, then why not do it?
