How fast can you retire?

I've been playing cRPG for over a year now and have not yet retired a character. Granted I have an alt or two and have respecced once or twice... but I see people that are on like gen 20 and above, how the hell is that possible? I mean, nobody can stay at x5 24/7, gotta sleep some time right?

What's the quickest time to retirement you've seen?

Every time you retire you gain experience 3% faster.  So on x1 your first generation, you have 1000 experience a tick, x2 is 2000, x3 3000, x4 4000, x5 5000.  At gen 2 it goes 1030, 2060, 3090, 4120, 5150.

Im into my 11th gen and my x5 XP is 6650 every tick.  This keeps doing this until you hit get gen 16 then your XP bonus stops going up.

When I was early on in my generations I was able to retire within about 3 weeks of playing about 12 hours a week (maybe closer to 15).  It also greatly helps if you are able to get into some large strategus battles.  Some of the larger strategus battles will give 750,000 - 1,000,000+ XP for an hour and a half of fighting.  On average, the 1500 man sieges in strategus usually give at least 400,000, and up to 750,000'ish XP.  You can retire very quickly like this.

yeah that's probably what's slowed me down, I haven't gotten into Strat at all. I'd like to hook up with a clan and do battles but between work and kids I can't hold any sort of schedule or anything. I'm lucky to get two hours to play on any given evening. I usually get an hour most days.

I am usually able to retire after two weeks of casual gameplay / 2 days of HC grinding. Full xp bonus.
Also, with new valor, if you do good on lvl 20+, you get multi quite often, this speeds things up too.

i think alot of these folks consider "casual" to be everyday for a few hours a day.... me and 3 other started about 5 weeks ago and are all on our 3rd loom. We typically play 2-3 hours 3-5 days a week.

Wow, I wish I could play 14 hours in a day  :lol: Pretty sure the wife would torch my PC if I tried something like that.

Free Peasants of Fisdnar is casual friendly and they end up in lots of Strategus battles.  In fact, a large amount of people associated with the FPF aren't technically in the clan.  They welcome independent players who just want to work with a larger organization from time to time.  So you can be involved at whatever level you want to be or have time for.

When you spawn in the NA side of Strategus just head toward the northeast corner of the map and contact ArysOakheart.  The FPF currently holds the city of Rivacheg and of course Fisdnar.

That sounds pretty cool, thanks for the heads up!

Depends really, if we have people on we just play waht everyone wants. Typically if im alone ill mess around on siege, and if i get stuck at a x1 for a bit ill just go duel.... Siege more than anything tho.
