I suppose this is way too early to be asking but i was just curious about how we might grind xp/currency/items in game, personally i found that grinding was a bit too boring as it was a perpetual loop of filling an inv then npc'ing. Will there be gear items dropping from monsters with tiers (i like games where you farm for rare equips but thats just me), just a little something to spice it up as opposed to the same old same old. What do you think?

I personally love a game that requires effort to be great at... if the game has an auto-questing/fighting option it really bugs me because then you aren't playing the actual game. I think that FO's grinding was a little bit over board when it came it leveling up past 100 or so; but other than that, I love grinding and chatting with people as I do it.

I don't think Eonzeon was talking about having an auto questing/fighting. Just making a statement that, in FO the grinding got a little too repetitive/boring and asking what we were planning on doing to combat it.
This is one thing that buggered me about FO. The repetitive grinding just got boring quick. I love playing online games, but I generally play solo, not talking to others. If I want to chat, I'll go stand around in town somewhere. So for me, it got old REALLY quick. I told Gamer a few times how easy it would be to add stuff like + 1/2/3 weapons or armor and it would have added a lot to the game. But it never happened. Our plan is to have some sort of tiered system for drops. We haven't hashed out the details yet and it probably won't be in the first release, but it is in the plan.

I loved grinding for money. But grinding on the same mob over and over got a little boring. If there were more drops or some rare drops, you'd find me there for hours and hours trying to get it. So I like the idea of new stuff. If you add stuff like alchemy or enchanting you can add special drops for crafting or something?
