is it?

Technically, you do not start paying upkeep until you hit level 26, but yes, it's still possible.
-
by the way, if you play this way ( like me ) take care because i was on my plated charger, heavy armor on and i hit 26 right before the end of a game yesterday and that costs me 8000k...... so respec BEFORE reaching 26!!!! Don t be stupid like me lol

so if you accidentelly go past 25, and you retire, you still have the "no upkeep advantage"?

Yes, and you will go down to level 22 so make an 18 15 build at 22 with 6 ps 5 riding and lol around until you hit 26 again.

Is it in any way possible for me to be lvl 25 without upkeep? Probably not without deleting my main right?

nahh, i want to do something like 14/15, otherwise i won't have any wpm n stuff, though i would like to ride a plated charger...

Alts can do it as well.

Wonderful

Isn't this technically exploiting something that was meant for complete beginners?
I mean, it sounds kinda fishy to me.

In the thread where it was first announced, chadz said that for now it is allowed.
-
Also, people using this 'exploit' are trading character stats and skills for using heavier equipment. Sounds fair imo. They're not getting closer to another retirement (loomz!) too, so staying 25 lvl aint that fancy and hax.
-
Yeah. Respecing at the end of lvl 25 and going for 15/15 build.
Plated Charger and tincan foreeever =D
But it's only an alt and i play it for fun so i see no problem there.

8000k? Lol thats 8,000,000. what are you riding on an Abrams Main Battle Tank (only costs 4.3mil)?
-
yes its how ATS and LLJK manage to field 30 mounted goretooths
-
lol you re right, 8000 or 8k.!!! sry
but the idea of the m1 is nice!!! i will add it in the "few items complaints" part lol.
To answer other people, i play this way with my main and i have great fun being a tincan on plated charger with no upkeep, but it is also true i have no loom points at all and my stats have a "roof" compared to lvl 30 builds...
right now i play:
15/15 ( so that i can wear heavy plate and ride at 5 )
and then all wpf in 2H ( when morningstar ) or polearms ( when lance )
at 22 i "max" ps at 5 and riding at 5 and then when i get up to 25 rest in ATH....
I have great fun even if im not competitive with lvl 30 guys but k/d ratio is always superior to 1-1 AND i help my team ( i almost always play in siege mode ) in 2 ways:
- Bumping others when they are fighting against allies ( that gives kills to my teammates and distract a lot my target )
- When defending i always try to go in the ennemy "camp" but NOT FOR KILLING ( as respawn is very quick ), i only try to hurt so that when the ennemy reaches its destination it has less life... ( easier future kills for my teammates )
So this is for sure a different way of playing, you will be easily killed by lvl30 guys but you will have fun ( and that's the point of a game, isn't it? )
-
yes its how ATS and LLJK manage to field 30 mounted goretooths
but you can't even make a decent build and ride a plated charger, so i'm going for a normal charger and coat of plates.
-
This will be not possible much longer.
-
Thank god.
-

why not?
i think the less levels counters the no upkeep advantage, because if i want a decent build i can only take 12/15, or in my case 13/15, so i can get a coat of plates. but i really will do a lot less damage then usual people, and i'm a lot slower
-
Because the heavy cavalry spam is rediculous, and a level 22 18/15 build with 6PS and 5 riding can do a lot of damage when using a heavy horse and decked out in the heaviest gear.
-
Dammit, I better hurry my leveling before they take the awesomeness away

but then you suck on foot, and you can't have a shield, with a heavy horse, they will likely go for you if you dont have a shield, and it's probably mostly NA, cuz i don't see them that much on EU
-
it s a pity if it ends...
it has advantages, but a lot of disadvantages, and i don t see too many epople doing this, so it must be because people think it has more disavandtages than advantages, right?
No having even 1 loom point after 173 hours of playing can be considered as the main disadvantage i believe lol....
