Can you even get to 50? - Pirates of the Caribbean Online Fansite & Forums

Question is can you even get to level 50 now with the amount of reps available?

An old thread touched on that question and its listed here:

Level Cap Raise

There are some questions about the number of available reps and the amount needed to get to 50. I don't think there are enough reps even with the possibility of residual reps not used after hitting level 40 and including the Fathers day quest double credits scenario. Any thoughts?

Sure, it is possible, but hopefully not easy or normal. I do like the idea of NO cap, myself. Just make it so those who really have invested time and kill LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTS of skellies can get there. The current repl-level assignments work for me.

I just hope they don't easy this up too so everybody can attain level 50 without trying.

Maybe, maybe not. I think that it is possible, well in fact anything is.. treasures give you 25 rep. But quests, there should be new ones to help gain rep.

How much grinding is it going to take to get there? Are we going to get bored like when we were tossing grenades to no end?? So then you get to 50......and then what?

Just an opinion:

I posted just the other day that Disney had to find a fair and equitable method to give those pirates who well EXCEEDED 40 with all the additional quests, reps, etc., some method of recuperating at least SOME of that lost rep. It appears that they haven't, at least so far, on the new test updates.

Last year I posted that I wasn't going to do ANY of the new quests after reaching 40, until I saw noto level increases, so that the rep wouldn't be lost. I have a lot of quests in backlog on my level 40 pirates.

My opinion of the current state of things.
NO, based on what is currently available, you won't be able to reach level 50. The new skill levels of 30 won't let you take Noto to 50. BUT, I believe that Disney will have a new set of mini quests, and possibly the next story chapter ready within months, and that is the rep that will get us there.

I disagree, my fully mastered friend on test is level 41 and with all weapons still lvl 25 (they haven't logged on yet). I think we'll still get the rep.

James,

Are you saying that they are level 41 and haven't gone on test since the update? That would imply that Disney DID give them credit for rep earned after they hit level 40.

Others that I know have already posted that this isn't true.

Well, I don't log on test much but she had all weapons mastered before the updatte and there is no way you can get that much rep from one day of questing.

Hmm I have clicked the card for a few pirates and sure enough it says level 41 but when I TP to them, surprise, they are only level 40. This seems to be a glitch for some of my friends. I do know a few players that have actually leveled to 41 already.

Its a long way between levels-5600 to 26, 5900 to 27 and then I don't know since I didn't get there. Just an estimate but 6200, 6500, 6700? Add them up and you get 30,900. In my last estimate I used 31,000 so I don't think its far off the numbers. 8 things to master times 31,000 is 248,000 reps. With those numbers you only get to about level 45 note. That leaves about 300,000 reps to go to master, I can't wait to quest for that many reps. Should take a good long time(lets hope)

For the last few levels of my alt, I was bagging over 50,000 rep a day but even then it would take a week and school's starting soon. Why couldn't they have done this in the summer rather than now when everyone's busy?

Thats the point I think...

Why put new updates in summer when all the kids are going to be home playing them and finishing fast and then quitting unlimited.
Disney is all about the money!
They put in updates right before school because they know it will take longer for us to get bored!!

Yep pretty boring idea just get a few more Benjamins!!

If these updates do come on September 8th, I have 3 days to get it done. 100,000 rep per day

There is another scenario to put out there...

You wouldn't release a "major" story quest without raising the Caps first - so this could be just the start.

By raising the Caps and giving a few side quests with weapons, they can work this out before releasing any larger story line. That alone may make up the difference in missing REP.

I also have someone on my friend list that turned level 41, possibly who you are talking about. But if they are the same, this person was online leveling (not sure about weapon levels before) and they are now, level 41 with level 25 weapons.
