As the eternal mainstream of online games, the power brought by the improvement of the level will always be the first priority pursued by players.

It can be said that there is no more humane improvement than "leveling", which is more humane than the "upgrade", compared to the equipment that can only be obtained by relying on strength and luck in the vast majority of cases, as well as the talent skills that the vast majority of ordinary players can hope for, the level advantage is undoubtedly the only advantage that the vast majority of players can take advantage of.

Because of this, when the Outlands opened up, the new level cap also allowed players to brainstorm and develop a variety of ways to raise the level to level 70 and regain their footing in the pinnacle realm.

Includes dungeons, blood arenas, battlefields, quests...... Even with a variety of means such as gathering and manufacturing, in the face of unprecedented power, the power that players can gather is often more powerful than ever.

Nowadays, the time it takes for a player to reach the level cap of 70 from the time they arrive in the Outlands is much shorter than when they were in the initial exploration stage, especially if there are people like Gao He who have accumulated a fairly high level of experience at the top level, or foolishly crossed the Dark Gate after increasing their experience to the limit by various means in Azeroshitun Guò......

It's an unstoppable trend, and all adventurers are dedicated to their ambition to break through the level 70 barrier, and they can't wait to find out what kind of power they will gain when they reach new heights.

But. When the final result is presented to everyone, they are greeted not by the dawn of a new world, but by ...... An abyss that is far deeper and thicker than the darkness it once was.

"What the hell is this...... What's going on? ”

Even if you know it's pointless to ask such a question to an NPC...... In fact, this is the fourth time that Gao He has complained to Atora and Jasmine.

They are now in a neutral city called Haran in central Nagrand - note that this is fundamentally different from the so-called neutral cities in Azerohi that are controlled by goblins, as the city's "neutrality" is relative.

To put it simply, Harran is a city that has so far not yet been determined, and the Outlander forces that have arrived in Nagrand have been fighting for this important location for transportation countless times, and that is why. Even now. Gao He could still see that outside the makeshift tavern he was in, the soldiers of the Alliance and the Horde were engaged in a terrible battle with the adventurers.

"At this point, I wish I was a forgotten one." ――By Xiaobai, who did not want to be named.

So now, the paladin is ...... Phew. It's Paladin Abu. That is, Gao He himself. After leaving the Blood Arena in a hurry, he was led by the magical girl Kyoko to this place that is said to be "the most dangerous and safest", which made time. Take a closer look at the amazing changes that have taken place in your body.

There is no other reason, just after receiving the reward experience of the final challenge and reaching level 70, I was originally full of hope to check the high sum of the character's attributes, but unexpectedly found that among all my character attributes, in addition to health and basic attributes, almost all the secondary attributes have been brutally weakened!

"It's not a weakening either...... It's just pulling the average down......"

The magical girl Kyoko was reading in pieces on the side, judging from her tone, she was now more like she was gloating about what happened to Gao He.

"Pull down the average?"

Gao He didn't pay attention to the female magician's villainous face, but directly took out the equipment attribute book and threw it on her face.

"Explain to me what this 'hit level' and 'crit level' are all about!"

It is worth mentioning that at this time, Gao He's image as a "little white" has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and because of this, he is happy to abandon the aura of being a savior and "first paladin" in Azerahi and be a little white in the eyes of everyone.

Therefore, the equipment illustrated book he threw out was only the parts of the epic equipment on his body with the two attributes of "critical hit" and "hit".

And what he cares about is precisely these attribute changes that were originally distinguished from the three main attributes of strength, agility, and intelligence, and are called "secondary attributes" by players.

To take the simplest example, as one of the parts of the Judgment Suit, one of the epic additional attributes of the Belt of Judgment is the buff "Critical Strike Chance Increases by 1%" - in fact, Gao He has quite a few pieces of equipment like this that increase critical hit, hit, parry, or dodge rate, and it is these real secondary attributes that make his combat effectiveness extraordinary

But now, Yiqiē is also changed because of these secondary attributes, because at this moment, when he checks the equipment illustrated book again after reaching level 70, the above description has changed-

"Critical Strike Level increased by 1...... On the surface, it's just a different way of saying it, but in fact, it'......"

Looking at his sudden drop in critical strike rate, Gao He frowned, and his eyes were fixed on the magical girl Kyoko, expecting the other party to give him a reasonable explanation.

"Ah...... If you have to explain it to my mother...... This is probably the same as player leveling. ”

The female magician ignored Gao He's expectant gaze, and after pulling the folds on her robe, she assumed a didactic posture.

"So you are still not convinced, as a qualified adventurer, isn't it the most basic thing to pay attention to the official forum every day?"

"Huh?"

Gao He pointed at the tip of his nose in a dumbfounded manner, but he couldn't say a word of rebuttal for a long time - could he say that he was finally bored because every time he went to the official forum, he could only watch others quarrel and fight because of him?

"Forget it, let the old lady teach you a good lesson when you just reached level 70...... What about this critical strike level...... It's just another form of critical strike chance. ”

So next, the senior little white paladin Gao He was well educated by the magical girl in front of him. At the same time, I also systematically learned about the various changes in primary and secondary attributes and the knowledge of numbers after level 70.

In fact, whether it is the world of Azerahi or the current Outlands, the river of time is always flowing slowly and never stopping, and because of this, whether it is an NPC or a player who is an adventurer, the growth of personal strength should also be reflected intuitively and regularly.

Along with the player's quest and game progression, the level of power they come into contact with is also increasing accordingly, from Hogg, who was only an elite leader, was able to beat countless adventurer squads, and then countless players in the Moonlight Glade faced the demigods and went forward to buy time. a battle that made a remarkable contribution to the heroic counterattack of Azerohi; From the city of light sources Delphia Lily will invade the big event. And then the Battle of the Quicksands, a grand war that exerted the strength of all the races of Azerohi......

With the progress of the game, today's adventurers are no longer the newcomers who were called "hairy boys" by the professional mentors, after countless battles. They have become qualified fighters in the truest sense of the word. And the best of the adventurers. Like Gao He, he has even touched the edge of the level of "hero".

As the mastery of strength became more sophisticated, the numbers that were once used to calculate and judge strength began to become less precise. It's as if the advances of science have led to the overturning of the theories of science, and in fact it's not that the numbers that have been used are incorrect—they just don't fit the current version anymore.

As a player's new comprehension and mastery of power after reaching level 70, it is these numbers that are now called "secondary attribute levels" are derived.

Critical Strike Level, Hit Level, Parry Level, Dodge Level, Weapon Level, Defense Level...... These attributes, which used to be expressed as percentages, are now calculated with a more precise and rigorous hierarchy, which accurately reflects the player's strength while also suppressing the problem of attribute inflation that accompanies the player's level increase.

That is to say...... When the player reaches level 70, because of the comprehension of strength, not only does his own strength not improve, but is also weakened because of it? ”

“…… I can't say the same. ”

Regarding Gao He's suspicious question, the answer of the magical girl Kyoko is quite open.

"You see, at least at the intuitive level of health, it's a lot more powerful, right?"

“……”

Well, for some whites who only look at the amount of blood when playing games, the change in health from four digits to five digits can indeed be called a "qualitative leap", but for Gao He, a secondary attribute has almost been cut to seven or eight pieces, which is definitely not an "improvement".

If there's one thing to be thankful for, it's probably that the secondary stats he gained through his generic and unique talents aren't similarly nerfed, and it's clear that the nerfs are only for the equipment and not for the individual player.

In addition, Gao He also keenly noticed that among all the equipment on his body, not all the secondary attributes that were originally calculated in percentage form were directly cut into the secondary attribute levels of the corresponding level.

"32 Hit Level...... 44 Crit Level......"

The original 2% of hits and 2% crits were converted to the secondary attribute levels of the above numbers, and based on a simple comparison of attributes, Gao He quickly came to a conclusion, that is...... This legendary quality necklace, which increases with the level, has not been weakened in the slightest, and ...... On the contrary, there is a slight enhancement.

That is to say...... About 16 hit level equals 1% of the original hit, and 22 crit level is about equal to the original 1% crit? ”

Almost at the moment of realizing this, Gao He's mind had doubts about a certain sentence that the upside-down man had said, and it suddenly became clear-

"My horizon and yours are no longer on the same level." …… (To be continued......)
