    This thread is dedicated to feedback on the Leveling Guide on How To GameSpot.

    Got a problem with the % caps? Tell us here! Make sure you back up any assertions with evidence! That means tell us what level % cap is wrong, what you get (on a day to day basis) and what the % cap should be. We'll look into it if we think your claim is valid.

    Got % caps to contribute? Brilliant! Tell us what you get and we'll try it for ourselves to see if it's right!

    Thanks, and happy levelling!

    I'm pretty sure levels 65 and 66 are capped at 2% as well, that's the maximum I got during those levels.

    Levels 65 - 70 are capped at 2% or very close to it.
    Before the layout of the site changed, I was able to record the caps for level 63 and level 64.
    63 being 0.46% per day and 64 being 0.42%

    I suspect that level 71's cap is somewhere around 0.30% to 0.35%, but I'm unsure as I didn't get to track that level enough.

    I've been interested in levels since I joined this site.

    Thanks for restoring the level percentages, Michael. Best move I've seen in a long time.

    I became interested in levels after I discovered the Guide, when I was at Level 8.

    I was able to achieve what was listed for Levels 8 - 56 and 58.

    I can't vouch for 57 because I was granted some level points, enough to where I skipped 57 entirely.

[spoiler] edit: I hit level 70 at 00.00%, there was no level bar displaying on the main forums page day 2: only a 1% gain. forums show 2%, so that means that the % is anywhere from 1.51 to 1.99% day 3: profile shows 3%, forums show 4% Edit: 5/9 so far still 2% a day and I'm currently at 9%, forums are displaying 9% to [/spoiler]

    I'm wondering if Level 60 might be 3%.

    I jumped from 17% in both Profile and forum index yesterday to 20% in both today.

    the cap might be close to to 3, I'll check a old leveling guide and see if it has the cap for it.

    Which level was the percentage so low that it took a good year to move on? Believe it was in the 30's before they changed it a few years ago...

    The metal slime (lvl20) did used to take a very long time, but it wasn't a whole year, only like 1 third to half of one. Beyond that the slow levels were in the 50s/60s iirc, and those ones still are slow I think.

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting..
    Time takes it all whether you want it to or not, time takes it all.
    Time bares it away, and in the end there is only darkness.
    Sometimes we find others in that darkness, and sometimes we lose them there again.
    None can hope to convey the life-sensation of any given epoch of one's existence -
    that which makes its truth, its meaning - its subtle and penetrating essence.
    It is impossible. We live, as we dream - alone.
    The real meaning of enlightenment is to gaze with undimmed eyes on all darkness..

    There's something wrong with the levelling software, not the Guide.

    My level is supposed to be a 6% cap, and being in levels that had 6% before, I already know how much to accomplish to get that cap.

    Yet I'm only getting 2% for the same amount of effort I placed into those previous levels.

    I really think there's something wrong with the patch they did for it. Perhaps some level values for webpages were inadvertently deleted.

    we used to say you rated as a Gamespot veteran once you had managed to make it past level 20.

    with the level cap raised the mystique is gone. too bad there is not enough mystery left in our lives
