    A big part of Wynncraft is leveling up and grinding for xp, there are tons of ways of getting xp. I usually do quests and dungeons for xp but another option is grinding mobs at a certain place with high spawn rates and xp yield with the added chance of getting good loot. I personally find grinding to be grueling and time wasting but I feel like some people like it instead of doing cheaty dungeons. (Cough cough CSST...) Currently Wynncraft is getting away from grinding as a main source of xp with additional quests and dungeons. Do you think Wynn should focus more on xp grinding? Or get away from it more and focus on creating more quests? Wynn will probably end up going the second route as that what many people prefer.

    For me it's:

    quests > doing the same dungeon 10 times > grinding mobs > doing the same dungeon 100 times.

    I don't think grinding is bad as long as it isn't super repetitive. I'm not sure how you would fix that though, maybe bring back something like missions? Have special mobs spawn similar to the dark balrog?

    Normally I would prefer quests and dungeons but the last significant addition of high-level content was (I think) way back when Corkus came out, and I already went through at least two rounds (almost three) of all the high-level quests and content, so for the time being I have to kill mobs for experience until the next major content update comes out (but who knows when?)

    There's also the problem that doing dungeons only gives xp. CSST has created this problem where you have tons of 100s with no decent gear whatsoever, so then everyone's just running to the class builds section asking for "gimme x weapon build with x stats" without any knowledge of how items/builds work and what late game items make good combos.

    Grinding kinda forces the player to gradually get gear upgrades as they level up. I can't say it's an enjoyable experience, but CSST is equally mind-numbing imo. It's just faster, that's it.

    Very true, CSST messes with how Wynn is supposed to be played, all you have to be is level 71 and maybe with an ok XP set and you dont have to do ANY quest every again.

    I think that adding more quests is almost always a good idea as long as grinding mobs and dungeons is still a viable option (for the people who enjoy grinding).

    Your right but I was just saying some people like getting them at the same time. I didn't expect a lot of people to say they prefer grinding since only a small community would do it instead of dungeons. Quests should be mandatory for everyone since its what the CT wants you to do to progress

    No. That's one of the main issues that drew me away from the game. Killing mobs was never fun nor rewarding. I never felt like my efforts were appropriately rewarded.
