Let me correct you on one point you made earlier.. cause yuki was NOT level 3 when mills was 50.. Yuki leveled up to mills quickly by making a proffesional "group" which played together all the time.. an approximation would be mills was 34 and yuki was 15.. then mills went to 38 and yuki was 30..

Indeed the game should be about getting together and killing stuff.. preferably with friends..

If you dont see the value of having a zone filled with only your group.. as opposed to your group and 90 other people..
(This means not having to put up with trains.. Kill stealing.. and others inconsiderate nonsense..)
Then a server jump isnt for you.. If you dont see anyway in which you couldve acted differently to improve the end results.. again its not for you.. If you arent desiring change of the situation.. Again.. a server jump is not for you..

For me.. the game has changed.. I want an easy ride to the high levels.. And that only occurs when you get a full, well-balanced group, consistently taking on reds.. I also want to be able to aquire these items with ease.. So far.. these points have come true.. And our group is tight.. and worx well together.. This game is now also a race to the finish.. Which adds another aspect i enjoy.. Let me add 4 days into play time.. there is a group of 7 at level 17, not us.. and more than just a few level 20+ running around.. (How one achieves level 20 in 4 days is beyond me..)

I also got the opportunity to try a new character class.. Which was great.. So for me.. This has been a revitalization process.. Taking the same old monotony.. Making it new and fresh again.. I have to tell you.. I loved killing bats and watching the exp bar zoom up.. hehe.. It has passed already.. but it was fun to see it again..
