Mechanics
Zorg generated ("pulled from the depths of hell") a new algorithm to calculate the experience needed to to level up above level 80. It increases the amount of experience needed to level at a much faster rate than the formula used for non-Avatars. This formula only comes into play once a player reaches level 80. Players of level 80+ receive the same experience per kill as a level 80, and similarly give the same experience as an avatar upon defeat.
The DEV team planned to remove experience gain for Avatars defeating players of level 79 and below (due to complaints of the increased difficulty of leveling from low-level players). However, upon announcing this planned change, many 80+ players argued against its efficacy, and very few players argued for the change. As a result, Zorg chose not to implement the change.
Benefits
- New outfits at level 90 and 100
- Increased incentive for Avatars to PvP
- New badges and banners
- Bragging rights
