During this Double XP Week, lots of players have been power leveling via Kuat Drive Yards (KDY), a Tactical Flashpoint for characters level 15 and up. The nice thing about it is the bolster, so you can be in a group with people in varying levels. Also, there is a lot of experience to be gained in the flashpoint.
I hate it.
I’ve probably done it less than 10 times ever, and that’s a generous number. I hate the different rooms, I hate that it’s boring, I hate all the adds and mindless clicking of blue objects. I could not do it over and over again. I don’t know how people do it. Does anyone actually enjoy it?
It may be effective in your leveling process, but at what cost? I don’t like to “grind” when I’m playing a game. I play for fun. I’m no masochist; I’m not going to inflict pain on myself just for the sake of leveling.
On Twitter this week I saw that someone got chewed out for going into KDY for the first time and not spacebarring through the conversations. This person was berated by a person that was overly concerned with their rate of leveling. Why so serious? Why is it such a big deal to level so quickly? I wish people would just calm down and realize that they’re playing a game, and playing should be fun.
Maybe Double XP Week is wasted on me. I’m going to level how I want. I could care less how fast I’m going, because I’m still going to play in the way that’s fun to me. Maybe I’m not getting the best returns on experience, and maybe I’m not spending enough time in-game. However, I’m not going to force myself to level quickly. I’ll make it to level 55, or I won’t. It’s not a big deal.
