Normally when non xpb ways of leveling are suggested, they are not viable or would hurt game sales. That's why I have been thinking the game needs a new type of party potions to be added to the game.

These items would only work in groups and would only have real noticeable benefits to players partying together. Since we have [Party] Defence, attack speed and attack buff pots, why not expand on a good thing?

[ Note, to have real effect, these pots would be used in general parties, buffs wont work unless 2 or more players are receiving said buffs each time they are used.]

[Party] Party Affinity Teamwork

Of course all prices are just rough estimates and what their value could be, to make up for lost xp sales if this became a more popular way to level.

Check new party system suggestion out at
[SGST] AP Party Pots New Party System

I am going to Agree because I am old school and wish we could have a game that was back to party systems. Nice work!

Cheers

agree to the idea having party pots like these would give sales create other meands of lvling or farming and possible increase people on server so quit cuz they don't or cant afford ap so this gives an option of still advancing without buying ap u just need a ap buying friend. I like it.

I suggested something like this 4 years ago or more.

/support

i totaly agreee with that but u will need to make seekers respawn after u kill one soo ppl can enjoy party lvling couse my wizz need 2 spots for his lvling

Im surprised by amount of positive support this has been getting so quickly. If you wish to agree/disagree and explain it in private, feel free to whisper me ingame or send me a pm. Others have been doing it for various reasons and I will not disclose any of the convo we had in private. Thanks again and merry xmas to all =)

I will agree.. even though this along with all the other good suggestions will be ignored

I would sujest something more simple:
mone exp gain in party and if we were killing the same mob the exp should not be so bad so we could have more fun grinding with our friends together I really loved the times wen I was a newbie killing in a big party in prokion or in tomb killing zombies with low lvl ppl, thats something I really love in games like lc but its not so common wen we are buying expb all the time and only lvl at dt and all that stuff.

Well sadly it has to be something thats an attractive option to both devs and PM. If we ask for them to just make it as viable to level in a party without xpb as you do with xpb in a solo/combat, sales of xpb would drop and most likely effect sales in a huge way for aeria games. So they would not want that to happen.

We need to find a balance where it suits both players and AGE well and its something devs would be interested in. So it needs to please all 3 parties. I think only way to really do this is to add ap items that really benefit partying groups and maybe in future add a new type of group thats solely for party leveling/affinity leveling in groups. But that suggestion is for another time if this one gets enough support.

To support bigger parties, the bonuses should increase (slightly) depending on the number of people in party. That way, more people will be willing to join parties. You see the same dynamic in MC parties, with the rewards being higher for bigger parties.
