| It isn't THAT bad of a grind. Better than FFXI or Lineage II.
What makes it seem like grinding are the quests, most of which have higher XP gain (obviously). Some of these quests tell you to go kill X number of Monster N, or collect X number of drops from certain monsters. The pain are these collection quests. The higher the number you have to collect, the more common they are.
But, the bloody Stolen Sword quest is starting to get to me, have already killed hundreds of Bandits and no sword yet. (>_<)
