I don't think I'm alone in thinking that making the retirement level 31 was a little harsh, but if retirement is intended to be for serious grinders only, I was wondering if it'd be possible to have another way to retire.
With upkeep etc. money can be hard to come by, but if one could retire by spending say 25k or something.... it'd be a nice alternative (I'm collecting lots of money on my archer, but crap all experience towards retirement)
Or perhaps a way to turn cash into experience under guise of 'additional training' button or something.
Just a couple of thoughts.
