How about that grind....

Grinding is usually not a problem for me because I'm very patience. I think AQ3D has always had some things that you must grind for e.g. talon armor in alpha, getting to level 15 in open beta, reaching level 27 as of, hunting for rare drops or getting the currently best gear from arcangrove.

I won't say that the game is focuing too much on grinding, but some tips on how to avoid getting burned out of grinding is by getting consistent. For example do 20 dungeon runs each day or kill the monster with the drop 50 times each day. If you need 200 of a specific item to craft something, try to spread them over a couple of days so that things get easier.

 

Listening to music or farming with friends (socializing, teamwork) seemed to get rid of a lot of the impatience or self-doubt for me.

 

Grinding's What Makes me play the game XD
