But 1 of the op's original complaints was they were able to go from 34 to 40 in no time.....so you all want to take longer leveling up but want almost immediate weapon/armor upgrades? I think the current system is a little better than befote, definitely better than 'forever 29'. Granted my highest character is only 295 or something, so I'm probably not running into as many of the problems as the 300+ people yet.
