I'm curious to know just how exactly NPCs suffer from DIminishing Returns but that's another topic. . .


Admittedly Rendar makes a lot of good points. All in all, it seems people are a bit frustrated with this and two options scream out to me:

-Reduce their HP namely (and possibly minor adjustments to lower Defense/Resistance and/or Attack stats).

-Reduce their stat growths across the board a minor amount, bit by bit, until we hit the sweet spot.

As for the part Chaos mentioned about higher levels being punching bags: Most likely DIminishing Returns.

Note: With Aptitude currently not working how it should, there's a chunk of experience that we're still missing from the experience (which could prove to help quite a bit.... obviously not as pronounced at 1 Aptitude but still). And I still would like to stand by my comment about using this to encourage group activity although being able to solo-level shouldn't be snuffed out almost entirely at early stages... especially since when that's needed the most.
