Grind??? lol

I've been looking at rating comments, and posts and there are frequent complaints about grinding.  This, I still have not figured out, because of all the flaws in the game, grinding is not one of them.  In fact, this game has the LEAST grinding I have ever played in an MMO.(I've played alot) I advanced to 40 in 4 days, playing only occasionally.  In lineage2 it would take me 2 weeks of playing non-stop to advance one level.

TIP:  BUY MANUALS they make it go 2x as fast.

TIP:  THERE ARE MANY MANY QUESTS IN GAME, you just have do some prerequisite quests first, alot of them give good xp.

TIP:  PLAY for a couple days, wait until you get into the real game, especially before you review

    Ok...um first of all, this game IS grinding...that's almost all it is.They added in some nice graphics and stuff, but it's basically just grinding...The manuals only make you go 2x as fast for kung fu skills, not levelling.And don't start saying I haven't even played because I did and I had a FD6 char.The quests in the game involve you to grind too, but I can't really complain about that because every mmo makes you grind in quests.BUT about the quests giving good xp...pfft!!Look how much your Xp % goes up when you finish a quest!That's not enough xp at all.

    But...even after I said all this...I do like the game...might start playing again...

    the leveling is not linear, it is an exp curve. the real grinding starts in RL and then gets worse and worse. You are right till 40 its not much grinding but believe me in a few days you will now why 9 dragons IS grinding!

    All games have grinding it is just how well they hide it into the game mechanics. Nothing is for free. Free game/ free play and ads in-game if you want to call them that. Really Acclaim's trick here is to get players to cheat the grind by paying money in the items mall, there you can find packages for X amount of $. Really I think this is a good idea because in most MMO's now days alot of the players buy items or in-game money outside of the game. The game is not bad for free play IMO,  but not really worth dropping cash to lvl up 20% faster. The only reason I see plucking money down for this game is that I  invested alot of time or acllaim shows me they will add more material to the game without totally jacking the game up.

    LOL ROFL...Dude level 40 is nothing I was in raising light level about level 60+ (if I could remember right(  and is 4x longer than it is being in the level 40's...I suggest you level up some more and then re write another review of what you think about this game...The grind doesnt come until you get father...You will know what i mean once you get that far...

    Dont get me wrong I truly loved this game, the play style is totally different from any other mmo's. You can train into so many different styles and then you have to grind into every one of them (unless of course you choose not to) but when you reach every do and so level the newer fighting styles will always be better and do more damage than the older ones so then you are forced to level every new fighting style you recieve...And grinding each and every fighting style takes forever once you reach level 4...So this game is all about griding no doubt about it man...Every new fighting style you have to level up and its only a sub group...So you have to level up your regular level and then level up your fighting style and thats more grinding than any other mmo...

    yup its a grind for sure.. kill kill kill kill oh and kill.. the missions give really bad XP, even if you put togeather all of the xp from all the missions in game you would not make a lvl at around lvl 40...
